Married At First Sight star rushes son to hospital after nasty accident

Married At First Sight star Ryan Livesey has revealed he had to rush his son Leo to hospital after a nasty accident. The dad-of-one took to Instagram to share a picture of his seven-year-old boy with a bandage on the back of his head, with blood visible underneath the white plaster.

Revealing how the incident occurred, he told his fans: “A&E on a Friday night… Leo’s split his head open playing football.” In the next story, Ryan showed his fans the graphic extent of the injury.

The E4 star didn’t share any other updates beyond this, suggesting Leo was back home and well. The proud dad regularly shares photos and videos of his boy on his Instagram for his 97.1 thousand followers to see.

On Saturday, alongside a picture of the cheeky father and son duo, he gushed: “He may outgrow my lap, but never my heart. Watching him grow is my life’s greatest joy.”

In November last year, Ryan shared a heartwarming video of moments he’s shared with Leo to commemorate his seventh birthday. He penned: “Happy 7 th Birthday, Leo Livesey! From the moment you arrived on 11-11-2017, weighing 6.6 pounds, you’ve been the greatest gift life could offer.

“You fill every day with love, joy and pride, and Dad loves you more than you’ll ever know. Wishing you a day filled with laughter, adventure and all the happiness in the world. Happy Birthday Son!”

This isn’t the first time that Leo has been rushed to hospital after Ryan had to take him back in December. He shared a snap of his little man sitting on a hospital bed in a blue dressing gown and wrote: “I love you,” but didn’t share any other information on his condition.

Ryan shot to fame on Married At First Sight last year and married bride Sionainn. However, things didn’t work out between the pair, with Sionainn quitting the experiment early, leaving Ryan in the lurch.

As the pair reunited to explain what happened behind the scenes, she told the experts: “It got to the point, it was the most ridiculous argument, we started arguing over shoelaces. Then he told me all his feelings were fake, he never meant any of it and I thought I’ve done it too many times and I am not doing it again.

Ryan shot back: “A pathetic argument over a pair of shoes, made you leave to the experiment,” as she expressed: “But it was a multitude of things that added up.”

Explaining his side in more detail, Ryan wrote on social media: “Writing this is difficult, and to be honest, I'm not sure where to begin.

"I was starting to develop real feelings and it meant a lot to hear Sionainn say she felt 'safe and comfortable' around me. This is something I truly pride myself on.

“I wish things would have turned out differently but now feels like the right time for myself and Sionainn to leave the experiment and I wish her all the best for the future."
