He replied: “I’ve acted cowardly. It’s not nice knowing, actually knowing, how I made you feel.”

MAFS expert Mel Schilling appeared stunned, questioning him: “Despite everything you said that time on the couch, you actually lied, you did have a profile on a dating app?”
“Yeah,” he confirmed. “I have owned up to it now tonight.”
Steven then offered his apologies to Nelly, describing his actions as a “massive regret”.
“I hate the fact that I have done this to you,” he expressed.
Steven said sorry to Nelly
