MAFS thread 18 I can only apologise for that hair

[Mill3nnial]

I couldn't find another MAFS thread! I know the series has finished but there have been other development and frankly I'd still like to discuss!

Really surprised about Lacey and Nathan especially after listening to the MAFs podcast yesterday and hearing they got matching tattoos!

What do you think of Ross and Sasha? She says he moved in with her but dumped her by text and moved on after 20 days apart! Shes talking about him and sharing pictures but he's pretending it didn't happen. I think she's trying to make a point to him / new gf / everyone that he liked her but it is weird he's moved on so quickly and pretending they didn't happen.

Amy and Adam? Really?! He probably fancies her but it will be a publicity thing for her...

am I the only one who hasn't moved on?

@Mill3nnial No! I'm here for the MAFS Hangover! I have name changed because this is outing!

I just saw Stephen 4 kids in the wild! He walked past me probably on his lunch break I smiled and said Hi because I recognised him and obviously that means he gets a hello because i knkw him...then a moment later BOOM nope he is from the telly box!

I now feel starstruck but he looked sad or perhaps he just looked like every other person getting out of the office to grab a quick meal deal for lunch!

Ah how funny @Maidenmum

If anyone listens to the Lara Eyre (of Lara and Richie a few season ago) MAFS podcast she’s interviewed Alex!! I will say though I turned it off after 10 minutes. Lara is not a journalist and doesn’t have the interview skills required to challenge people, she just sucks up to her guests. I thought she’d have the integrity to not have a man who is a demonstrable bully and alleged woman beater but she did. She kind of addressed the abuse allegation and he gave some nonsense about it being a pillow fight when he was in the RAF?! Then started banging on about his work. I realised then he’s a POS and if it was juicy or exciting I’d have carried on listening but it was just him being self indulgent and Lara fake laughing

@EvilsElsasPetSnowman I'll have to look it up

I keep seeing that Polly is dating Eve and can't work out if it's a joke or not!

I've listened to the Lara / Alex podcast

Lara isnt a skilled interviewer

Alex is thick as mince. I think he has the intelligence of a child

I didnt realise this podcast existed

Lara has also interviewed Caspar! In kind of over MAFS though so I don’t think I really care enough to listen 🤣 however if Hannah or Amy come on I’d love to hear their side of things.

Did he address how he treated the women at all?

Ha ha, this happened to me a few years ago. I saw one of the gay guys (Matt?!) in Sainsbury's and waved at him before realising who he was.

I’ve listened to a couple of her podcasts over the years and they can be interesting for the behind the scenes stuff but she very much lets people tell their own truth.

Adam / Amy was predictable - he was at his most animated during the spouse swap

The other woman who's on with Lara is dreadful. She just reads out what happened on the show. Very dull. I do like Lara though but pitied her interviewing him as he was so dim.

I'm listening to the Caspar interview and he's saying one thing he wasn't happy with was he wanted to have kids but Emma didn't. Does anyone remember this being mentioned EVER in the show?

So listened to Alex interview now and I think he comes across quite well, much better than Caspar! I actually liked Caspar but not after his interview there was something off about him

That was definitely never mentioned @Mill3nnial, makes me think how much we didn't see about their relationship!

I have seen rumours that Polly and Kieran are together, can't imagine her with Eve!

I can't imagine Amy will stick with Adam for long.

@purplespink Well either that and it really was a bad edit or he's twisting things now. It's hard to know! He did sound a bit bitter about evryrhing

Polly and Keiran 🤔

@Mill3nnial I saw on insta that Eve has a new girlfriend so it's not Polly.

I saw Kieran on Polly's insta story at least a month ago, if not more. Her dad was there too and the caption was something about Kieran being his other son. I just assumed they were friends but there's rumours of them moving in together.

Polly is going back to Australia for Xmas (on her IG) so very much doubt cohabitation with anyone. Can you see Kieran leaving his caravan?

What MAFS AUS seasons were recommended to binge on the UK MAFS threads (I can’t remember).
I think there was mention of a series with twins in?

@purplespink Oh wow I wouldn't have put them together at all

I I listened to Polly's podcast interview earlier and apparently she's autistic and had adhd

If that's the case it's very strange they went on about Nathan's adhd and even Lacey's sister but didn't acknowledge Polly's

I remember Polly saying she had adhd on the show. Don’t remember a mention of autism though.

Polly’s ADHD was mentioned at the very start. In her intro. Not really brought up again though. The producers really don’t have a clue how vulnerable some of their contestants are.

@BurgundyBear series 4 has the twins in. I’m currently watching it for the first time and pleasantly surprised at how much (relatively) saner everything was back then, from participants and ixperts, It’s pretty good. Series 6 is the classic series though.

Thank you @Doubleraspberry
I think it was series 6 I remember people referring to, so will start with that.
But will also remember series 4 - maybe one for a Xmas binge!

Yeah I think you're right maybe the was mentioned but I don't think they said she's autistic and they definitely didn't go on about it

She said in the podcast something like it was because Lacey too the time and Keiran took the time to learn about their partners' conditions but Adam didn't
