MAFS OZ UK pace 3 (no spoilers) - speaking our truths, there's no socks in our shoes

[Chooba]

Bracing myself for the dinner party tonight!

I think Dan is meeting up with Georgia or someone else he's maybe met on one of his night's out with Harrison.

Harrison is an absolute douche

Tayla is a nasty cow, no surprise she is on her own with her spoiled princess attitude

Who is Pob?

Can confirm she said his height

Dan wishes he was with Georgia but she's rejected him 😄

Phew. I've been a bit behind for a couple of weeks but I've caught up!

• Tayla is truly awful. I think people started to get a glimpse of her character through some of what she said, but I do not understand why Hugo didn't mention the sofa sleeping and competition for the bed

• Alyssa was way over the top and I thought Sandy was excellent for calling her out. I missed the beginning of the series and didn't realise she had a son. And she's had an affair!

• Harrison WTF! I still can't forget how awful he was to Brontë but they do seem to have agreed to carry on an some of what he was saying to Adam actually made sense. But I still think he seems like he's clowning around with the whole thing.

Dan has changed from the accepting good guy he appeared at his and Sandy's wedding. His true colours are showing.
Sandy and Josh would've been great - better ixperts here than on the programme.

Ha. I've just twigged about the spelling of Ixperts The first time I saw it I thought it was a typo.

Yes, they would have been good.

I don’t think this is spoilery….

has nothing to do with the couple outcomes but is about what Jesse has said post filming…

so avoid if you don’t want to see it!

anyway he has said that at points when he wanted to leave the producers told him he was under contract and couldn’t. Don’t even know how true that is but he has certainly claimed that he was told he had to stay.

So much about how Jesse and Claire were immediately attracted to each other and getting all misty eyed about their 'connection', when only a few hours after the wedding and for ages afterwards Jesse was utterly vile to her.
I know she did wrong, but so did he, and it's not as though she shagged Adam, it's just that a kiss is a visible sign of lack of loyalty and being verbally cruel isn't.

I think it's more that Claire was verbally cruel, gaslighting, lying AND she snogged someone else.

wonder what would have happened if Claire had come clean straight away instead of all the gaslighting. Outcome probably would have been the same as they weren't in a good place then I guess

There used to be a lot of flouncing off the show in previous series. It seems like they introduced someone being able to move to another apartment in place of them leaving before a commitment ceremony.

There’s no way Dan is exercising for 6hrs a day, he’d be much fitter. Not in the gym at least, I’d be willing to believe he’s ‘exercising’ though…

I fancy Claires dad so much!

I think this has been blatantly obvious several times. Mick would have left if he could and I think that's why Josh got so upset, it was partly the idea he couldn't leave. There was a couple I think in Micks season who just left early on, and it definitely had "breaking the contract" vibes about it.

I definitely put that first bit in bold 🤦‍♀️

I don’t get why Georgia (Dans female mate) didn’t pull him up on his exercising regime that lasts 6 hours! He’s not a professional athlete.
Instead, she sat there agreeing that Dan is right to exercise for that long. She’s an enabler for Dan. And she didn’t back up Sandy when Dan said she was wrong to challenge him on his exercises.
Would Georgia be happy if her boyfriend fucked off for 6 hours ‘ exercising’?

It’s quite absurd that Dan and Georgia think it’s acceptable for Dan to do this and how they think Sandy is wrong to question this 🤷‍♂️

Such a Shane for Sandy what a pair Dan and his friend were talking utter rubbish to each other, Sandy is a stunning girl and she has tried very hard my guess is Dan has been ahem exercising with his friend, the twat.

Tayla is just awful how she passed any nursing course is bizarre to me, the way she then went into a catatonic state on the couch when Hugo put her last in the picture ranking was both hilarious and pathetic!

Theres something about Alyssa that I just cannot stand, hope Duncan runs for the hills.

Um was that a spoiler, @kenyaswhiterefrigerator ?

If people could fuck right off with their spoilers, that would be great, thanks.

Being pressured to stay isn't the same as being unable to leave. I very much doubt the contract means no-one can ever leave - that would be impossible to enforce. It's not bloody Hotel California. Some people are just more susceptible to pressure ... and being on TV.

After 2 couples left last week, I suspect the producers were in the ixperts' earpieces saying 'don't let him leave, we're haemorraging couples'.

FFS @kenyaswhiterefrigerator

Didn't Big Brother have a clause in the contract which said that if you walked rather than being voted out then you wouldn't be paid?

There have now been decades of reality TV programmes with contestants revealing in various media outlets that there are contracts and rules for participation.

MAFS Australia alone is in it's 10th year.

So it's not exactly a spoiler to suggest that it's likely that there are contracts and rules whilst participating in the show.

I'm not even going to tag the person swearing at me for saying this. In the words of many a contestant to Harrison, 'Get in the bim'
