Married At First Sight bride Alyssa Barmonde has taken a swing at her ‘ex-husband’ Duncan James.
The American reality star, 35, spoke out on her Instagram Stories after Duncan, 36, discussed her new romance on the TOSSER podcast.
He claimed fellow groom Josh White reached out to let him know that he and Alyssa were planning to go on a date together.
On the podcast, Duncan, who recently moved in with MAFS’ “hottest bride ever” Evelyn Ellis, said he wished the potential couple “all the best” ahead of their date.
“It wouldn’t have stopped anything, it was just out of respect, he didn’t ask me, he informed me… and I was like ‘man, go for it.’ Mate, I’m happy for you,” Duncan recalled.

“Is it also weird that Duncan threw me and Josh (White) under the bus for going on a date to distract from the fact that neither he nor Evelyn were paying me ‘respect’ to tell me about their relationship and I had to hear from someone else hmmmmm,” Alyssa wrote on her Instagram Stories.
Alyssa continued, “Like why even bring it up. When it actually just proved that Josh had enough respect for him (and me) to tell him. But he couldn’t answer.’
She added: “I don’t expect an ex of mine to tell me they’re moving on with someone else. That would be absurd.’
“But if it’s with someone in our friend group, who we went through a life-changing experiment with, and who supposedly ‘rooted’ for us, and they had enough ‘respect’ for Rupes to tell him.” Doesn’t seem logical to me.’
“I am done with being silent and hiding my thoughts and feelings for fear of being made fun of and labeled a ‘victim’. So much happened in that expert that was never shown.’
“There were several reasons why I reacted the way I reacted. It wasn’t about nothing,” the reality TV star continued.

‘Why didn’t Evelyn tell me when she and I were friends? I guess we weren’t having fun,” she concluded.
It was reported earlier this year that Alyssa and Josh White were dating, after splitting up with their respective partners on the show earlier this year.
Alyssa, a mother of one child, has also previously suggested that she has a close relationship with Josh.
When asked which groom she would have preferred during a recent Q&A on Instagram, she said, “Josh is the most kind-hearted person I have ever met in my entire life. He’s one of those people you just call to check on you.’

She continued, “We get along really well. He wasn’t on MAFS very long, but we caught up a few times. Josh knows I love him very much.”
And Josh confessed that if he could turn back time, Alyssa would be his bride of choice for another attempt at the MAFS experiment.
Fans will recall that Alyssa was originally paired with cybersecurity sales director Duncan James, while Josh was paired with the vivacious Melissa Sheppard.
The road to love was not smooth sailing for either couple, with Josh and Melissa calling it quits midway through the series, while Alyssa was dumped by Duncan at final vows.
Duncan has now moved on with Evelyn Ellis, the show’s “hottest bride ever.”

Alyssa has since denied the claims she is dating Josh and insists the pair are just friends.
Duncan and Evelyn, who were recently pictured kissing and cuddling on a date night in Sydney, revealed in May that it was “exciting” and “liberating” to finally go public after months of rumours.
‘We have a relationship. This is (our) hard launch,” Evelyn told Nine.com.au.
“It feels good to finally just say it and it feels kind of exciting in a weird, liberating way,” Maxim’s cover girl added with a laugh.
