Speaker 1 (00:00):
I married the first time.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I can't believe at this end of things ready for
it to go away yet. Final veils are on Sunday
night on nine and a Fena.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
The voice you just heard, Fina was just.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Saying that you hadn't watched the shot. You really hadn't
watched the show before you signed up.
Speaker 4 (00:17):
Like I really hadn't before.
Speaker 5 (00:20):
And I didn't follow anything contestance. I didn't know anything
that happened afterwards. I didn't even know the reach this
show had. I thought I was going to go onto.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
This might have been the best way to go into it. Yeah,
was it?
Speaker 6 (00:31):
Was?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
It dangerous?
Speaker 5 (00:33):
My first honesty box I actually thought was dessert because.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Every night, that's great.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
Every night in my honeymoon they were bringing me dessert,
like I had the longest honeymoon.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
So when it first came out, it was like every other.
Speaker 5 (00:46):
Night where I got this gorgeous, beautiful, like really fancy dessert.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
I was like, oh, chocolate.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
And I opened this box and it was paper.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
I'm like, watch all right, this Sunday, we're gonna see
the final vowls and see who stays together. And you're
of a not gonna tell us right now?
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Do you know about the others.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Do you know who's stayed together or will you be
getting because I know you watch the show with the
rest of us as it goes along.
Speaker 5 (01:12):
No, we all, we all know, we all okay, fair enough,
like I've we got most of us have kept in touch. Yeah,
well you know what I'm seeing Jamie this weekend?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
All right now, Adrian, Now you know how popular the
show is, so while you're at the moment, while it's on,
you must have a hard time going anywhere without people
coming up and probably being very forward in their opinions
on whether or not you should be with him.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
Yes, the first thing anyone ever says to me when
they see me out is why, Yeah, that man does
not deserve you? And also how do you understand him?
And I'm like, I've got a seven year old I
used to being around children.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
How does he.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Feel about the fact that he has subtitles?
Speaker 5 (02:05):
Adrian understands Adrian, he genuinely is very confused as the subtitles.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
He thinks it's a stitch up.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
But speaking true friends, they also don't understand this man,
So maybe I.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Don't understand what he says.
Speaker 5 (02:17):
Come on, I think I was partnered with Adrian because
I can speak Adrians okay, the dialect.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
You do speak him?
Speaker 4 (02:24):
Yeah, I understand Adrian perfectly.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
I speak perfectly clearly, and he doesn't.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Well.
Speaker 6 (02:29):
During the show, Adrian used to consistently tell me that
I don't communicate effectively.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
No, I don't communicate my coming.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
From someone with some you know, you don't even know
what you want. And so those first few episodes were
very confronting. He's like, no, I'm actually communicating effectively.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
It's not me, it's you absolutely speaking of children.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Lots of childish behavior on the show to take your
what After a while, we're going, what the hell's going
on here?
Speaker 2 (02:50):
And you go there.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
I actually even my first dinner party because it's really
confronting when people genuinely were bringing a lot of issues
to the table. I I was really confronted by all
of that. I'm like, what is going on here? I
wasn't used to that dynamic. Like I've been friends with
people for ten plus years.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
That's my community here.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
You know, we talk to each other like adults, and
when we have an issue with someone, we say our
issue and we get over it. Yeah, it's squashed, it's
moved on and you know, friendships aren't conditional.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Relationships shouldn't be either.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
So when you.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
Address an issue, you acknowledge it, you give that validation.
I guess, you make those appropriate changes, and you move on.
Speaker 6 (03:27):
I felt like with that experiment, it was consistently like needed.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
To be brought to the table, need to be brought
to the group dynamic.
Speaker 6 (03:33):
Everyone relished and kind of vilifying either their partner or
someone else, and it was very unhealthy.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Here's the one sort of thing that just always gets
me about this show.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Why are you?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
I mean, you've walked in here this morning, you're dropped dead, gorgeous,
You're a nice person, you have a good job, you're stable,
your lovely family, You've got everything going for you. I
would imagine you would have suitors lining up. Why do
you then go and say I need someone to hook
me up with someone?
Speaker 5 (04:05):
So when this kind of fell into my lap, because
it really did, it felt like it fell into my lap.
I had just left a fourteen year relationship, so I'm
eight weeks fresh, my ex partner works five for he's
three weeks away and one week on, and I had
just got into the phrase where I was like, I'm
ready to go back and date and I wasn't afraid
of it. I know I'm a catch, I am beautiful,
I am kind, and I give so much to the
(04:27):
right person. And when I applied when I started those
dating apps with my twin sister, we also applied with
mass at the same time because our mum recommended it. Okay,
we didn't fully submit our application, but they reached out
like the next day, and it kind of felt like fate.
I said, I'm ready to start dating, and how incredible
is it that there's this reality show that will cut
(04:49):
all the grunt work for me, so you have faith
in what I have so much faith because when I
went on those dating apps, people like, can we hang
out this weekend? I was like, no, actually, I can
hate out in three weeks time from now. And it
just I was like, oh my god, if I did
this for an entire year, I'm possibly going on like
ten dates and you can't just date one person.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
And I'm like, you kind of have to go on.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
A few days, see what's out there and really get
to know yourself better as an adult.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
But I was like, I can go onto this experiment
and tell them exactly what.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
I want, and then I get to do this very
beautiful experience where I get to know myself a bit more,
not as just a mum, myself in a group dynamic
where we're all dating, and I don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
I was really excited and I was really open.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
To the opportunity. And I kept telling my twin sister
and she kept laughing at me. I said, I feel
like my forever person's going to come from this experiment.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
So what do you like at keeping secrets? Because you've
signed a contract with the network, so you have to
be careful what you say. You know, I've been some places.
Are you good? Are you catching yourself every now and then?
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (05:55):
You know what, When I'm in my community and I'm
like in my area and I'm talking to people actually,
like you know, random people from the puppet, they come
up to me, I do not keep secrets because I'm like,
I'm gonna.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Lieing to make community. But when I'm online a bit better.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Yeah, Okay, I'm curious if you're just dropping a little
hint a second ago because the Daily Mail wants to
insinuate you have found it forever person from this show.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
But it might not be the Mumbler. It might be
someone who appropriately lives on the West coast. But we
shall see.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Maybe I've got to ask you something and she doesn't
know we're saying this, so we're all safe. We're among friends.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Jackie, you whisper.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
I've never I've never looked, you know, people try to
suggest that them sometimes in maths, you know, someone might
be a plant, an actor or something.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
I've never believed it.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
Met Jackie, she just reel Jackie. When I got there,
I was like, most real you know what, I don't
watch every episode. I'm really naughty and coolly cooks on TikTok.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
And had several times.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
So I have had dinner with Jackie several times.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
And what I have seen online and what I'd met
in real person, that is her.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Like there is no edit.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
There an interesting.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
And I will say one thing.
Speaker 6 (07:14):
You know, in the beginning you're kind of like exhausted
from this, but at the end it was comedically it
is commedic relief, right, and well, if everyone goes left,
she goes right. You know, she doesn't need to follow
that herd but sometimes sometimes you just don't agree with
the way she goes but it is it is hard
watching her online right now, and you know, really kind
(07:37):
of be like edit edit this, and ed that, and
I was a victim, and it's like Jackie that was
you just own.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
It for her watching. I'd have been very disappointed if
she'd gone a while ago, because she has been.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Comedic, relief, great TV.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
She was great at the dinner party.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
You know, some days where I'm like, my life really sucks,
then there's Jackie.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Yeah, so you have to reset.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
And so I always loved that look on Jeff's face
when she's speaking.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
He's like, is this happening? I did not.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
I was always so confused. I didn't know which version
I was going to get. You know, it was always different.
I'm like, okay, it's Jackie, oh, Jackie.
Speaker 6 (08:14):
Four, Jackie fye.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
And then Ryan was very similar to like I.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Some days I would.
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Defend Jackie, some days I'd defend Ryan because with them two,
you just didn't know, Like it was so confusing.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
You know that. One of the other sort of highlight
of the season for me has been if you had
told me on episode one that halfway through I would
be defending.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Elliott, I would never believed you. And didn't that.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
Just take a full circle story, Elliot and I you know,
we became very good friends towards the end of the
experiment before he left. You know, Jamie and I consistently
at Elliott's back because I'm always like real, recognized as real.
I didn't agree with his behaviors in the beginning, but
I had met Lauren at the Hens party, and she
wasn't very nice. She was quite snobbish even then. Yeah, yeah,
(08:57):
but I do feel like it was unfaced. I knew
what I gave up to be here. For someone to
walk out so early on, I felt like that was unfair,
and I didn't like to person. But I do love
that he was true to himself. He didn't like drag
someone through the experiment for airtime. He didn't feed false
narratives online. He was just himself.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
And then with Veronica, I was like, god, is she
an actor?
Speaker 2 (09:20):
She says she is an actor.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
Someday she would say one thing.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
And then I remember one time Beth was having a
very confronting conversation with me, like she was really opening
up and she was very emotional, and cameras weren't around.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
We were on retreat, you.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
Know, we didn't have microphones on, and I was just
supporting a friend. I didn't need airtime to support a friend.
I didn't need airtime. If this was a story that
would get sold, some of them would make sure a
camera was there.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
Veronica sits down, she listens to the story. Then I
see her do this with her hand waving the cameras.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
Only she was like noticing that this would be a
story and airtime. And that was when my alarm bells
went you were not here for the right reason.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
And the moment the cameras.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
Came over, I was that naughty person that would start
dropping bad words because.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
I wanted to.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
I'd go, you know, I'm like, I'm not this is
not a story. My friend is opening up, so I'm
not playing this game. And I would say random inappropriate
words and they're like, again, a Fina not playing ball, that's.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Funny, it's funny. Yeah, Well, I know you can't tell
us what's gonna happen on Sunday, but can you tell
us with your eyes? Because it's radio No.
Speaker 5 (10:22):
What I will say is the version of me you
meet on Sunday is not an organic version to myself.
It's someone who is acting out of fear and trying
to just It wasn't organic I knew in my soul
what I deserve, and I knew from the beginning what
I deserve from a live partner, and you know, the
right person would have met my son. I don't feel
(10:44):
organic to that person that came out in Sunday because
I was consistently around Adrian and his bubble being pushed
on to me, and I felt like I was constantly
scrambling to save face. So all I will say is
Sunday night, that is not me. Reunion, that is me.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
All right, Well, we look forward to watching that. You
seem like if you were saying you know, you wanted
to get to know yourself a bit better too. You
seem very happy, so obviously you've come through.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
I'm of course.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Day.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
It's nice to meet your afraider. We look forward to
see what happens on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
No, thank you, thanks for coming
I married the first time.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I can't believe at this end of things ready for
it to go away yet. Final veils are on Sunday
night on nine and a Fena.

But speaking true friends, they also don't understand this man,
So maybe I.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Don't understand what he says.
Speaker 5 (02:17):
Come on, I think I was partnered with Adrian because
I can speak Adrians okay, the dialect.

Comedic, relief, great TV.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
She was great at the dinner party.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
You know, some days where I'm like, my life really sucks,
then there's Jackie.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Yeah, so you have to reset.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
And so I always loved that look on Jeff's face
when she's speaking.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
He's like, is this happening? I did not.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
I was always so confused. I didn't know which version
I was going to get. You know, it was always different.
I'm like, okay, it's Jackie, oh, Jackie.
Speaker 6 (08:14):
Four, Jackie fye.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
And then Ryan was very similar to like I.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Some days I would.
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Defend Jackie, some days I'd defend Ryan because with them two,
you just didn't know, Like it was so confusing.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
You know that. One of the other sort of highlight
of the season for me has been if you had
told me on episode one that halfway through I would
be defending.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Elliott, I would never believed you. And didn't that.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
Just take a full circle story, Elliot and I you know,
we became very good friends towards the end of the
experiment before he left. You know, Jamie and I consistently
at Elliott's back because I'm always like real, recognized as real.
I didn't agree with his behaviors in the beginning, but
I had met Lauren at the Hens party, and she
wasn't very nice. She was quite snobbish even then. Yeah, yeah,
(08:57):
but I do feel like it was unfaced. I knew
what I gave up to be here. For someone to
walk out so early on, I felt like that was unfair,
and I didn't like to person. But I do love
that he was true to himself. He didn't like drag
someone through the experiment for airtime. He didn't feed false
narratives online. He was just himself.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
And then with Veronica, I was like, god, is she
an actor?
Speaker 2 (09:20):
She says she is an actor.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
Someday she would say one thing.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
And then I remember one time Beth was having a
very confronting conversation with me, like she was really opening
up and she was very emotional, and cameras weren't around.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
We were on retreat, you.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
Know, we didn't have microphones on, and I was just
supporting a friend. I didn't need airtime to support a friend.
I didn't need airtime. If this was a story that
would get sold, some of them would make sure a
camera was there.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
Veronica sits down, she listens to the story. Then I
see her do this with her hand waving the cameras.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
Only she was like noticing that this would be a
story and airtime. And that was when my alarm bells
went you were not here for the right reason.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
And the moment the cameras.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
Came over, I was that naughty person that would start
dropping bad words because.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
I wanted to.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
I'd go, you know, I'm like, I'm not this is
not a story. My friend is opening up, so I'm
not playing this game. And I would say random inappropriate
words and they're like, again, a Fina not playing ball, that's.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Funny, it's funny. Yeah, Well, I know you can't tell
us what's gonna happen on Sunday, but can you tell
us with your eyes? Because it's radio No.
Speaker 5 (10:22):
What I will say is the version of me you
meet on Sunday is not an organic version to myself.
It's someone who is acting out of fear and trying
to just It wasn't organic I knew in my soul
what I deserve, and I knew from the beginning what
I deserve from a live partner, and you know, the
right person would have met my son. I don't feel
(10:44):
organic to that person that came out in Sunday because
I was consistently around Adrian and his bubble being pushed
on to me, and I felt like I was constantly
scrambling to save face. So all I will say is
Sunday night, that is not me. Reunion, that is me.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
All right, Well, we look forward to watching that. You
seem like if you were saying you know, you wanted
to get to know yourself a bit better too. You
seem very happy, so obviously you've come through.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
I'm of course.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Day.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
It's nice to meet your afraider. We look forward to
see what happens on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
No, thank you, thanks for coming
