Harrison Boon stokes online rage as Married At First Sight supervillain fires back at Carrie Bickmore’s plea for men to ‘stop killing’ women: ‘You are the problem’

Controversial Married At First Sight groom Harrison Boon has fired back at Carrie Bickmore’s impassioned plea for men to ‘stop killing’ women.

On Wednesday, Fox FM star Tommy Little broke out live when he read a letter his radio host Carrie Bickmore wrote to end violence against Australian women.

Carrie, 43, shared a clip of the heartbreaking moment on her Instagram, which caught the attention of MAFS star Harrison Boon, 32.

‘Are we going to talk about the men who are murdered by their wives every year? What about the hundreds of men killed by other men every year?” the reality TV star began.

“It seems strange to focus only on the female victims.”

Only four men were murdered by an intimate partner in the 2022/2023 financial year, compared to 34 women murdered by male partners in the same period.

Many of Carrie’s followers were unimpressed by Harrison’s response and quickly fired back.

‘If you’re so outraged by it, do something about it! Stop taking away from the issue being discussed here!” one fan snapped.

Harrison responded, “I talk about this all the time. I cover it extensively. This has to stop.’

Others did their best and said to Boon, ‘Go back to your cave. Your moment of attention ended years ago.”

“You’re naive and missing the whole point. You’re part of the problem, buddy,” another critic added.

Another was even sharper in his attack, writing: “You are the problem.”

It comes after Tommy Little, 39, was asked by Bickmore to read the letter she wrote to the Australian government about the national crisis and it brought him to tears.

In an emotional moment, Carrie expressed hope that if a man read her words, other men would help to listen, while Tommy promised to be “happy to be by her side.”

After Carrie urged him and other men across the country to “stand up, speak up and speak loud,” Tommy tried to hold back tears as he read the letter out loud.

It started with a reference to ‘the crisis our country is in’, in which a woman has reportedly been murdered by a man every four days so far this year.

Tommy continued reading, “No, not all men are monsters, but we live in fear of those who are.

‘We change our behavior to take into account the bad, and not the good, because the risk is too great not to.

‘To the good men among us: do something. It’s not enough just not to kill us. Do something.’

Carrie’s letter then said that if men were killed by terrorists or cyclists were hit at a similar rate, laws would be “made overnight” to prevent this from happening again.

Carrie isn’t the only public figure in Australia demanding an end to gender-based violence, as Sunrise host Natalie Barr also added her voice to the cause this week.

Their pleas follow protests that saw tens of thousands of Australians march in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Canberra this weekend.

The demonstrations were fueled by growing outrage over a wave of gender-related killings, with around 28 women killed this year – or one every four days.

The victims included five women who lost their lives after knifeman Joel Cauchi, 40, carried out his stabbing attack at Westfield Bondi Junction on April 13.

Barr said the protests and discourse around gender-based violence were overly represented by women and needed input from men.

It follows a shocking report on Monday which showed intimate partner violence is on the rise in Australia, according to new data published following a wave of tragedies.

Data from the Homicide in Australia 2022 – 2023 report shows that there were 247 homicide victims between July 1, 2022 and June 30, 2023.

Of these, 38 incidents occurred between intimate partners, and 89 percent of these occurred against women.
