Rebecca Zukowski has revealed details of a ‘terrifying’ encounter with a man on a Melbourne street.
The Married at First Sight bride says she wants to warn other women in the area to be wary after a stranger approached her on Arden Street in North Melbourne.
The man insulted Zukowski outside her home and continued to follow her down the street to a nearby train station, where she sought shelter.
The 51-year-old leasing manager, who previously panicked as she described the incident, says she contacted police and filed a report.
‘Unfortunately I couldn’t make a full report because the person didn’t attack me. So that was kind of disappointing,” she said in an Instagram video on Tuesday.
“The reason I went to the police station is because I just wanted to provide a full description to see if this person was a threat to society, and to make sure my community can move forward safely,” she continued.

Rebecca said the man followed her for “at least five minutes.”
‘I was on the phone all the time. I looked over my shoulder. I knew he was following me,” the former reality star explained.
“I think what surprised me was that he followed me into the subway and then confronted me in this aggressive way, so that wasn’t great.
“It was quite terrifying.”
Zukowski described the man as a red-haired white male, approximately 6 feet tall, and wearing dark blue jeans and an army green hoodie.
“Stay safe and be very careful,” she warned women.
The television star added in her caption, “I’ve had so many disturbing stories shared by women, and honestly I can’t believe how crazy it is out there.
The 51-year-old leasing manager, who previously broke down while describing the incident, says she contacted police and filed a report.

‘I reported what happened and gave the police a full description. Unfortunately, all they can do at this stage is increase patrols in the area.
‘Stay alert, trust your feelings and look out for each other.’

She later said their relationship quickly fell apart behind closed doors.
“He marked me as a friend,” Rebecca said.
“When the cameras weren’t rolling, he would say to me, ‘Rebecca, this experiment is too much. I just need my space. I’m just going to read my book.’
Despite the heartbreak, Rebecca insisted her story is far from over.
“I just want to find my happily ever after.” “I’m just a girl who wants a man to love me,” she said.
