Married at First Sight UK bride Peggy Rose has called for a public apology from ex Georges Berthonneau.
The blonde beauty has “had enough” with the “emotional abuse and mind games” and claims her TV husband still wants her back despite splitting up weeks ago.
Peggy issued a statement to fans on Valentine’s Day confirming the end of her relationship with content creator Georges. Chatting exclusively to FUBAR Radio hosts Bobby Norris and Ellen Coughlan on the showbiz programme Access All Areas, the reality star slammed her ex husband “for selling stories to the press”.

Peggy said: “It’s really upsetting because I didn’t want it to get like this. I wanted it amicable and I said to George, as soon as he broke up with me, ‘Can we announce it together amicably on Instagram? I don’t want to go to the press. I don’t want to sell any stories. Let’s just do it like adults’. I was willing to protect him and not mention the dirt or anything like that. I wanted to protect Georges, but on Valentine’s, I just thought, why should I protect a liar anymore?”

She continued: “I tried to do my statement on Instagram amicably still, and then he came out with the article the next day, straight on my case. He called me a gas lighter and a narcissist. How you can have the audacity to do that when I’ve protected you for so long? It’s character defamation. And if I was any of those things, why does Georges still want me back? Why was he sending me Valentine’s stuff? It didn’t make sense. He was even trying to talk to me after he wrote that article the same day.”

She continued: “That evening when I saw the article, I blocked him. And I don’t want to talk to him again. Why would I? I’ve had enough with the emotional abuse and the mind games and I don’t want to speak to him ever again. Unless I had a public apology, I will not be speaking to Georges ever again. I haven’t sold any stories. I could have easily gone to the papers, run straight to the papers. Georges said he was blindsided, but if you’d seen what I’ve seen Georges, you would have done a lot worse. You know, he would have sold the story left, right and centre to every single article like he does most things.”

Peggy went on to claim that Georges sold a story about them wanting a family together despite breaking up with her weeks prior. The TV star explained: “Georges sold the story to Closer Magazine about wanting my children and moving in together. He’d broken up with me a week before I saw the story. He messaged me the day before the article came out and said ‘By the way there’s a story coming out about us tomorrow and I’ve said all lovely things’ and I thought okay you’ve been lovely. Then when I saw it, it was as if we were still together. I remember saying to him ‘I’m sad reading this. It’s lovely but I’m sad’. It’s the mind games.” Daily Star has reach out to Georges representation for a comment.
