Heartbroken by his decision, Alycia admitted: “I don’t know where the Mat that I married went.
“He disappeared, and it was really, really upsetting for me.”
Mat also later opened up about their split, saying he ‘felt uncomfortable around her.’
“It massively bothered me that we had nothing in common,” she said.
“I like to party, she doesn’t drink. I like to sleep with an open window, she likes 500 blankets. We don’t even like the same fruits! We’re very different people.”

After the show, it seems as though the couple well and truly went their separate ways.
Alycia went on to reveal they never speak and are not friends, while Mat claimed his ex blocked him off social media.
Following the show, Mat hinted he had found romance with MAFS co-star Charlene Perera, 35.
Sharing a photo of the pair kissing, he seemingly took a dig at Charlene’s ex Patrick Miller.
He wrote in the caption: “I must admit after finding out about the love affair between you and my ex-wife I spent many sleepless nights wondering how I would ever get you back.
“But then it came to me, why don’t I run off with your wife?”
Charlene and Mat have never confirmed their relationship.
Meanwhile, Alycia is now happily in love and confirmed back in February that she was moving to Melbourne to be with her new man after just two months of dating.
Keeping the mystery man a secret, she shared a series of photos of him on Valentine’s Day with his face with a heart-emoji.
She told her followers: “This is a very special year, it’s so lovely to have a Valentine of my very own… That’s right I am in a relationship. And I have moved to Melbourne to live with this sweet man of mine.”
Alycia has also got fans talking by sharing lots of sweet photos with MAFS star Troy Delemege, with many questioning whether they are more than just good friends.
