Married at First Sight star 'was sexually assaulted on honeymoon by new partner'
A Married at First Sight star has claimed they were sexually assaulted by their newly matched partner during filming of the hit Chanel 4 reality show. The troubling claim, understood to have been made shortly after the couple returned from their lavish 'honeymoon' has prompted police investigations, The Sun reports. The report of the 'non-recent' incident was filed on June 14, but due to legal restrictions, the identities of those involved - including the police force handling the case - cannot be revealed at this stage. Shockingly, scenes involving the alleged victim have already been broadcast, sparking outrage and raising serious questions over the show's safeguarding policies. It is the latest explosive scandal to rock the controversial dating series, now in its ninth season, which matches up complete strangers to marry at first sight. They are then whisked off on a honeymoon and thrust into cohabitation. Participants are also filmed attending boozy dinner parties and dramatic commitment ceremonies - often a hotbed for emotional meltdowns and fiery confrontations. While Channel 4 initially denied receiving any complaints, the broadcaster has since admitted it is aware of the report made to police, prompting fresh scrutiny of the show's vetting procedures and duty of care. A source close to production told the newspaper that the situation is a 'nightmare scenario' for them as they have already been heavily criticised for throwing strangers together for viewers' entertainment. 'Now it's alleged someone was assaulted after tying the knot. It is a disastrous look for bosses,' the unnamed source added. Police confirmed they are investigating the matter, telling The Sun: 'We received a report of a non-recent sexual assault on June 14. Enquiries remain ongoing'. A spokesperson for Married at First Sight also confirmed they were aware of a report being made to police 'about an alleged sexual assault during the filming of a dinner party'. They added that the team take any issues on the show 'incredibly seriously' and follow strict welfare protocols when it comes to the cast. The spokesperson also reassured that support would be offered to anyone who reported an incident to authorities and that the show would participate with any investigations carried out as a result. The fresh scandal comes hot on the heels of another controversy involving contestant Alexander Henry, who appeared on the current season despite being accused of domestic abuse. Channel 4 rejected calls to axe him from the show, insisting his criminal background check had 'returned clear'.

Dog the Bounty Hunter's grandson, 13, shot and killed by his own dad in family tragedy
DOG the Bounty Hunter's 13-year-old step-grandson has been shot dead by his own dad. The reality star's step-son shot and killed Dog's step-grandson - in what is believed to have been a tragic accident, TMZ reported. 6 6 6 6 Dog, whose real name is Duane Chapman, is married to Francie, whose son Gregory Zecca, 38, reportedly killed his teenage son Anthony at their apartment in Naples, Florida. The freak accident occurred on Saturday night. Dog, 78, is not directly related to Zecca or his tragic teenage son - since he was born during Francie's previous marriage. Police confirmed that they responded to a call about a shooting at around 8pm local time. No arrests have been made yet in what they described as an "isolated incident". An investigation into the circumstances of the horrific accident is still ongoing. A spokesperson for Dog and Francie told TMZ: "We are grieving as a family over this incomprehensible tragic accident and would ask for continued prayers as we grieve the loss of our beloved grandson, Anthony." Dog and his wife married in 2021 after each of their partners passed away. They said they bonded over their shared grief during their relationship. Zecca reportedly works with Dog on his bounty hunting team alongside Dog's daughter, Lyssa. Dog's step-son was also a gun enthusiast - and has previously shared photos of him "getting some range tine in" with his son and their rifle back in 2021. Reality personality Dog is a renowned bounty hunter and former bail bondsman. In a 2010 interview with The Guardian, Chapman revealed the hidden meaning behind his name. Chapman told the media outlet: "When I was in a motorcycle gang I was made sergeant of arms. "He's the smallest guy with the biggest mouth who starts all the fights. "The club president called me 'God spelled backwards' because I spoke about God and I was man's best friend. "In the bounty hunter world it turned into 'this dog can hunt'." Chapman rose to fame as a bounty hunter in 2003, after his successful capture of Max Factor heir Andrew Luster in Mexico. He went on to catch more than 10,000 fugitives according to an interview published in The New York Times back in January of 2020. This is not the first time the bounty hunter has been plagued by a freak tragedy. The night before his wedding with former partner Beth in 2006, Dog received the horrific news that his daughter Barbara, 23, had been killed in a car accident while in a stolen SUV in Alaska. 6 .
