MAFS fans slam Mitch after 'toxic' outburst: 'Run Ella!'

MAFS fans were left confused on Monday night when Mitchell Eynaud began ranting about the fact he doesn't want to be in front of a camera... while on a reality show.

Mitch was shocked on Sunday night when Ella shared that she didn't think he was good enough for her, but rather than comfort her, he said he wanted to take a break from the relationship because he was embarrassed she would tell the whole group but not him privately.

"I don't wanna talk to these other 18 d**kheads sitting on the couch about me," he told Ella. "This experiment is brutal, it's toxic."

"I'm just trying to embrace the experiment –" Ella responded, with Mitch jumping in, "Yeah, but I don't wanna embrace it.

"I don't want to have to go through that again, I just want to go home now. I'm over this," adding he wants to go home and spend time with his friends and family.

"So that's it? Really?" Ella questioned through tears as he simply agreed.

"This experiment is so toxic, can't even go for lunch and talk about it off-camera. It's stupid, man. I'm f***ing done," he said while pulling his microphone off.

In a piece to camera, he gestured at the producers and camera people and said, "All of this, in my face, is not what I like, it's rubbish, it's toxic. I've got cameras following me walking out of my room!"

"It seems ridiculous, why are you guys filming me?"

"This experiment brought us together, I'm down to learn and grow with him in this environment, but I think he's just done," Ella told the cameras. "I think he's just done with the experiment and with me. If he leaves, then he's leaving us."

When a producer asked if she thought he was going to quit, she tearfully responded that she did.

While Ella is alone, she says she wishes she'd told him earlier that she didn't feel good enough.

Mitch then returned with a "proposal" that they give it another 48 hours and "see how we feel at the end of that time" and make a decision after that.

"I can't just walk away," he said.

Ella described it as "heartbreaking", worrying she wasn't enough for him to stay.

"If I get dragged into s**t then I'll walk out of the experiment," Mitch tells the cameras.

Viewers slam Mitch

Meanwhile, viewers were shocked by the outburst, taking to Twitter to slam Mitch.

"Uuuuhhmmmm Mitch why’d you sign up for a reality show if you don’t want to be on camera," one user wrote.

"Mitch is a walking, red flag!" another added. "All his language is me, I, my. All about him. Until he wants Ella to agree like 'the commitment ceremonies aren’t beneficial for US'. No, b***h, they’re not beneficial for YOU because you’ll be held accountable!"

"Hey Mitch, you did realise you were going on [MAFS] right?! Cameras everywhere!" a third said. "Why did you even bother, fair dinkum!... I would have told you to f**k off ages ago."

"'I don’t want to get caught up in this TV bull***t drama' says Mitch, to the camera, on a TV show," someone else added.

"Walking Red Flag Mitch is now trying to pull them away from the format which exists to examine their behaviour & hold them accountable. RUN ELLA," another said.

"Mitch has got to be the ickiest #MAFSAU contestant ever," someone else added.

"'This show is so toxic' - actually the most toxic thing on this show right now is you, Mitch. Disliking cameras is not an excuse to be hurtful to your partner and ditch her the first time she's brave enough to voice an insecurity," another pointed out.
