A Married at First Sight star has been criticised for an Instagram post he put up yesterday tagging his location as White Island.
Electrician Tayler Morgan posted a selfie along with the caption "I might want some Airpods" and tagged White Island, where a disastrous volcanic eruption yesterday left fivepeople dead, several injured, and more missing.
Morgan's followers thought the tag was insensitive.
"In my defence, I didn't know anyone had died when I posted cause I was at work."
The sparkie said he usually "tags random places" on his Instagram posts and there was no meaning behind it.
The star has since changed his location to Apple HQ.
Morgan was a contestant on the last season of Married at First Sight in New Zealand and was partnered with Samuel Levi, as the only same-sex couple on the show.
They announced their split in January 2019 after six months together.
