MAFSAUS THE FINALE. Once again, we have done it. Just like David, we have found our voices. Just like Danny, we fought in the trenches. Just like Scott, our pets have been freed of the mental abuse that is MAFSAUS. Until next time. Farewell!

Is it the reunion tonight then? Do we know if Danny is showing up? Is reunion hosted or a dinner party - got overkill from all the episodes lol

I’m confused by some of the timings on here, it doesn’t take much

i thought the reunion was shown last night (thurs) and that’s it now?

murasaki · 15/05/2026 13:55

There seems to be one more After the Dinner Party at 10.

OnTheBoardwalk · 15/05/2026 14:00

Ah it’s called MAFS after the experiment and it hasn’t series linked it on my Sky Q box

thanks

yeah and changing the name of the show doesn’t help! Hopefully this is the last one

DP thinks it's all over, it isn't now...

However, as he will have got fed up of me swearing at the football before it, i suspect he will have gone to bed so I'm in the clear.

Bec described Steph previously as a friend. If so, then Steph initiating contacting with Danny a matter of days after Bec was devastated, is poor friend behaviour. It doesn’t justify Bec’s horrendous attack. But I think Steph did not act like a friend there.

Bec, on the After show, revealed why she was so upset and it was spontaneous and from the heart. She was so devasted at being dumped by Danny that she couldn’t get out of bed for 6 days. She was messaging and phoning Danny but he ghosted her. When she realised that Danny was messaging Steph but blocking her, she flipped. Why was he talking to other women but not to her?

If only she had gone off-script during the dinner party then we would have cut her a bit of slack.

I've just watched that and I agree. Danny has behaved like a Grade A shit. Bec needs to address her behaviour and how she reacts to things, but at the same time it sounds like she's been royally played and I do think it explains a lot about what we've been seeing from her.

Must remember next series to cancel ALL evening plans on the last week so I can watch live rather than take (checks) almost 3 HOURS catching up on the last three nights posts!

I hate them but the series would have been a snooze without Gia and Bec and their frenemyship. Gia and her troupe of monkeys - Brook / Juliette / Chris (BB) / to a lesser extent Rebecca and Mel; how did this awful woman attract these people as friends? I have to agree with Danny, how did the producers find such awful women? I found Danny's comments in quite a few to-camera shots to be observant, in particular to other couples relationships. I guffawed loudly at his "going into a room and not knowing if he'd get out alive" comment.

And Stevo. In his early tapes he said his friends are getting married and having babies and that's what he wants. I don't think he has the life experience to find a relationship on his own, he put faith in the ixperts finding him a match. Rachel is a lot - that laugh, her insecurities, her insistance that he kiss her; she found his one comment on the honeymoon offensive and went off on one. Rachel's not the traditional telly pretty woman that you see on these programmes, she pulled him up at the actual wedding for not saying she looked nice. Rachel's very needy and Stevo, much as he liked her, wasn't in love with her. And that's allowed. Last nights After The Dinner Party Rachel has said how she continually built him up ... like this meant Stevo owed her somehow to say he loves her. The ixperts giving him grief for not putting her first like he owed her that. Stevo could have gone early in the experiment and he'd be berated for not giving the relationship a proper try. He was never going to win with Rachel.

Couldn't work out why David left me cold when you lot were all in lust.

Then I saw a clip of him and Alissa kissing at the wedding day and remembered why I had the ick ...

Oh, my. I had to google that kiss, I’m sorry I did. Too much, he nearly swallowed her bottom lip.

I heard Juliette on a podcast today (only listened to first 10mins or so) she wasn’t coming across great. Said a lot was edited out about Joel being misogynistic in his vows and speech. She said Gia was the only 1 who was welcoming to her when she first arrived hence why she was friends with her. She also said that watching it back with her friends and family was really traumatic for all of them but since the show she has been processing/focussing on herself/getting in touch with herself/reflecting/add a buzzword here. The little I heard she did not acknowledge any bad behaviour - even when she got it wrong about Joel supposedly saying “I am the star of the show” she doubled down.

Well, obviously we've only got the MAFS footage to go by, but if it's any indication of her intelligence levels then I'm impressed she managed a big word like 'misogynistic'...

Apparently she's also pregnant now.

Heavens help all these poor children being born to these nasty women.

Juliette was unhinged!
Watched After show part one this afternoon. Got me through my workout but felt it was a bit boring. Danny is vile and I cannot believe he thought that piece to camera would never be shown. Also Steph was sooo passive with him when he was so out of order to her. I mean by all means don’t get into a slanging match but she was super polite.

This was an AI story - she was shown posing with the “father” of her unborn baby - TEDDY!

Yes I heard that too. I guess you didn't listen to the part about all the awful trolling she's had online. Look, I don't like her, but we need to acknowledge how much they get set up by the producers and how they create storylines for the participants, so we aa viewers never get to see the actual truth about what is really going on.

Oh 100% re the producers. I hate how you can hear them asking the participants questions - it sounds so fake. Likewise it annoyed me on last nights show when they were all laughing about whatishisface forgetting the rings. But after so many series anyone who applies to go on these shows cannot be naive about how things work.

Thank you. She's a black tuxedo in the winter, but goes chestnutty in warmer weather. Or maybe she's hopped into some henna when I wasn't looking!
