The producers of the E4 series were concerned about his actions towards his wife, teacher Shona, 31.
Fans watched in horror as Brad told Shona to “shut up” and accused her of needing “outside validation”.
MailOnline is now reporting that Brad, 27, has started a relationship with Hollie Baldwin, 25.
The pair were seen sharing a passionate kiss at the opening of VIP Scarefest at Alton Towers on Friday night.
His romance with ex-wife Shona ended shortly after Brad was axed from the show.
The disturbing scenes last week prompted domestic abuse charity Women’s Aid to speak out about Brad’s behaviour.
A show source told The Sun: “The relationship with Shona was becoming toxic.
“Bosses stepped in before the situation got out of hand.”
Last year, the series’ financial advisor George Roberts.
He has since been arrested for alleged controlling and coercive behavior.
A Channel 4 spokesperson said: “If any relationship on MAFS UK develops in a way that is considered unhealthy, we take expert advice on whether the couple should leave the process.
“That was the case with Brad and Shona. Support is available at all times.”
How you can get help
Women’s Aid has the following advice for victims and their families:
- Always keep your phone nearby.
- Get in touch with charities for help, including the Women’s Aid live chat helpline and services such as SupportLine.
- If you are in danger, call 999.
- Learn about the silent solution, by reporting abuse without speaking into the handset, instead of dialing “55”.
- Always have some cash with you, including change for a payphone or bus ticket.
- If you suspect that your partner is about to attack you, try to go to a less risky part of the house – for example, where there is an exit and access to a telephone.
- Avoid the kitchen and garage, where knives or other weapons are likely to be found. Avoid rooms where you could become trapped, such as a bathroom or where you could be locked in a closet or other small space.
