Sionainn returned for the explosive reunion show alongside a host of other contestants for series eight and nine.
But some E4 viewers were left wondering why Ryan did not make an appearance.
He has now taken to social media to reveal that he was invited to the reunion but he turned it down.
He shared a photo of the 2024 gang and wrote: “I’ve been getting messages asking why I wasn’t at the reunion.
“I decided I didn’t want to do any more filming.”
He added: “I was at the last reunion, and I made it clear that I was done. A wrap is a wrap.”
Unfortunately for Ryan, things didn’t work out with his TV bride Sionainn.
Explaining his decision to leave the show, he said: “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.”
Fiery bust-up
It comes after Ryan was at the centre of a huge row between Hannah Norburn and her husband Stephen Nolson prior to their exit.
During the couple’s retreat, Hannah was accused of being inappropriate towards Ryan.
Polly told the group: “Last night after the commitment ceremony she’s gone up to Sionainn and Ryan’s room and she was rubbing Ryan’s feet in front of Sionainn and going ‘ain’t you got nice blue eyes, your feet are so soft, isn’t it nice and warm in there?’”
But things got even worse for Ryan, when Stephen told him he planned to make a move on Sionainn.
During a tense confrontation in front of the group, Ryan raged: “If I wasn’t here, you’d crack on with her? Muppet.”
Hannah also found herself being confronted by the other brides over her flirting with Ryan – despite being married to Stephen.
Hannah told them: “Nobody is letting me speak, how do you think that makes me feel? It’s f****** horrible.”
But Polly was quick to jump in and told her: “Don’t start getting muggy.
“Do not start speaking to people like that. The last thing you want to do is get brave.” An upset Hannah replied: “Don’t threaten me.”
