According to Beth, it’s unlikely that anybody from the cast will join OnlyFans, and she definitely won’t be joining the adult creator website.
“Not a fucking chance. Absolutely not. No thanks, not for me,” she declares. “I’m not getting my bits out for everyone to see.”
When Chattr mentions past contestant Olivia Frazer made over a million dollars on the platform, Beth says she’s happy for Olivia but money doesn’t make a difference.
“Good for her! I can think of better ways to make a million dollars than get my tits out,” she says, before telling us it’s not really on the radar for the MAFS 2025 contestants.
“I’d be very surprised if any of this cast [signed up for] an OnlyFans account. I doubt it. I can’t think of anybody that would do it, not a chance.”

Will Teejay Halkias join OnlyFans after MAFS?
Teejay echoes Beth’s thoughts on OnlyFans and says he has no plans to join the platform.
“Oh my god, OnlyFans is nothing I would ever consider. I don’t know if anyone would ever consider subscribing to me if I had one to be honest with you, so I don’t think I’m OnlyFans material,” he admits.
“No disrespect to those doing it, but yeah, I don’t know if I’m up to scratch.”
Teejay will be prioritising his family once the show wraps up. Image: Nine
Instead, he’s planning to put “a lot of energy” into a business and spend quality time with his family, including his new baby niece.
“I’m just trying to be as happy and content as possible and care about the people around me. Sounds very cliche, but it’s hard going through this process, so I’m just trying to stay connected to my friends and family. That’s all I’m concerned about at the moment,” he explains.
If we don’t have any new OnlyFans accounts after MAFS wraps up, it will certainly be a surprise!

Although Kaelan Lockhart hasn’t had a tonne of screentime on Australian Survivor 2025, he’s still managed to steal the hearts of viewers — as well as his fellow castaways.
The Ph.D. student has entire threads dedicated to him on the SurvivorAU subreddit, countless comments about his good looks on Instagram and even has his fellow castaways starry-eyed on X.
Australian Survivor’s Zara told Chattr that Kaelan is “so beloved” among the tribe.
“He is the man who he can’t put a foot wrong. Socially, everybody adores him. He is constantly helping out around camp, getting everybody coconuts,” she said.
Kaelan has been playing a low-key game on Survivor and has quietly formed alliances on the beach without ruffling many feathers so far. The most featured of his alliances is the one formed in an early episode with Zara, Karin, AJ and Myles called The Graduates.
But, The Graduates isn’t the only alliance Kaelan has up his sleeve.

Zara and Kaelan’s secret Survivor alliance
While Kaelan appears to work with AJ very closely on Survivor, Zara told Chattr that he had a two person alliance with her.
“We form a beautiful relationship, where he calls me his Survivor mother, and I call him my Survivor son. So he calls me Mama Z, and I call him baby K, which then everyone takes up as well.
“We had an interesting Alliance, which was [called] Denise and Malcolm, which is a Survivor US reference, with, like, a young, hot, able male and an older, fit female.”

With two back-to-back Challenge Immunities around his neck, Kaelan is likely to pick up attention for being a threat in coming episodes.
However, we’ve seen little of his relationship with Zara, will she step in and save her alliance partner when he becomes a target? We sure hope so, because we need more Kaelan content!

Fans have been suspicious about Teejay Halkias’ intentions for joining the Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2025 cast, considering he was previously on Big Brother. Could he just be looking for another way to shoot to fame?
He hasn’t helped his case either, after revealing he was leading his wife Beth Kelly on and doesn’t know if they will have a future outside of the experiment. Chattr asked the couple for their thoughts on the rumour that Teejay just wanted to become an Aussie celeb, and the pair had slightly different answers.
Teejay dismissed the idea that he went on MAFS for fame, saying that Big Brother was a completely different show.
“I think that during my audition process, if [fame] was my intention, that I would have been weeded out straight away,” he declares. “There’s no reason that just because I was on Big Brother doesn’t mean I don’t deserve the opportunity to find love. I think that there are many other people that have been on shows prior to them going on other shows.”
He adds that he’s from a big family, and all of his siblings have significant others, so he wanted a chance to find one as well.
“I’ve obviously not been great at picking them in the past. So why not put my faith in the experts?” he asks.
Teejay and Beth haven’t been on the best terms lately. Image: Nine
Beth doesn’t know if Teejay was on MAFS for the right reasons
However, Beth says she isn’t sure whether or not Teejay signed up purely for fame.
“It’s hard to say. I don’t know [what] his true intentions were, but I just know that I don’t feel like he treated me the way that he should,” she begins.
“I don’t really know if he did come on for genuine reasons, or if he did come on [for] fame, I’m not sure, but just the way he’s gone about it, I just feel extremely disrespected.”
She adds that it’s possible he wanted to “use” her for a while before expressing a need to “get out.”
“I do feel a bit played and strung along, whether that was for his own fame or not, I don’t know.”
The intruder couple previously seemed quite solid. Image: Nine
She did say that she was in the experiment for love, not fame, and didn’t have a pact with Teejay to stay until the end.
“I was truly there for the right reasons,” she says. “Why would I stay in the hopes of getting a little bit of fame and get my feelings hurt? To me, that is absolutely not worth it. I went in there because I never had a relationship. And I thought, why would I not get some professional help and see how it goes?”
It doesn’t seem like Beth is very pleased with Teejay at the moment, but something must change — as both of them make it to Final Test Week. We’ll have to see what happens on the couch!
Married At First Sight 2025 airs Sundays at 7pm and Monday – Wednesday at 7:30pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
The latest Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2025 Dinner Party was hard to watch, with Teejay Halkias coming under fire for leading Beth Kelly on. He’d slept with her, then told his friends that he’d end their relationship at Homestays if he had to make a choice.
Beth tells Chattr that she was “blindsided” by Teejay’s actions, which left her “choking back tears”. We’ve all been there, girl!
“I really came in with genuine intentions of leaving with a partner. And so yeah, there were a lot of tears shed,” she says. “I was so blindsided, because the days leading up to Homestays were great. We spent some quality time together, we went on a date, he slept with me again.
“And then, bang, we’re in Brisbane and he’s telling me in front of his friends… that he doesn’t see this progressing or going anywhere. And so to me, I was just so hurt.”
Beth adds that she was “embarrassed” that she’d misread the situation and feels “a bit led on.”
Teejay didn’t have the greatest time at the MAFS Dinner Party. Image: Nine
She believes that Teejay was never really into her, and she missed some red flags along the way, because she liked him so much.
“I do feel a bit stupid… there were a few kind of gut feelings that [meant he] wasn’t into me. But I think sometimes when we’re dating someone we really like, you kind of want to sweep it under the rug and kind of ignore that,” she says.
“Yeah, I just feel like he completely fucked me over.”
Did Teejay call Beth ‘darling’ at the MAFS Dinner Party in a demeaning way?
Beth tells Chattr that it wasn’t uncommon for Teejay to call her “darling”, but the sheer amount of times he did it during the Dinner Party was excessive. While usually he would call her “darling” a couple of times a day, he said it so much during the meal that the cast even made a drinking game out of it.
“I guess looking at it last night, maybe it was a bit patronising. I mean, Jamie picked up on it straight away, and that’s why they did the drinking game, you know,” Beth says.
“The ‘darling’ came out when he was in the hot seat, and it kind of felt like he wanted to call me ‘darling’ to maybe pull me down a little bit and maybe control the situation a little bit.”
Beth wasn’t impressed. Image: Nine
However, Teejay tells Chattr that he uses “darling” and “sweetheart” a lot as part of his everyday vocabulary and it isn’t meant to demean anyone.
“I didn’t realise how many times I actually said it, I know that there’s probably a few more edited in there, but I definitely said it a few times. I thought it was quite funny, the drinking game that everyone made from it, even the experts getting on it as well,” Teejay says.
“I definitely [equate] the word darling with someone that I care about, even sweetheart, like I wouldn’t say that in a patronising way. That’s just a word I use.”
Guess these two will have to agree to disagree!

Australian Survivor’sLoganJohannisen has revealed that she suffers from Topical Steroid Withdrawal after viewers pointed out her “really, really red skin” during the Tribal Council that aired on March 19.
Logan took to Instagram to explain the skin condition she’s been experiencing for the last few years.
“I’ve noticed online there are a few comments about my skin out there and especially at last night’s tribal when I was really sunburnt and I wanted to provide some context,” she began in a video.
Logan told her followers that her Topical Steroid Withdrawal journey makes her “super prone to inflammation” and gives her “really, really red skin”.

What is Australian Survivor Logan’s skin condition?
Logan referenced her followers to a highlight on her Instagram page, where she’s documented her struggle with Topical Steroid Withdrawal since 2022.
In the highlight, Logan explained that she started using steroid cream for her eczema when she was 18, which resulted in her developing a topical steroid addiction that she didn’t realise until 2022, when she was pregnant with her second baby.
“Long story short, I’m five months into topical steroid withdrawal, which is basically my body detoxing from 20-odd years of serious cream usage. It’s a very long, very painful process,” she explained in one of the videos.
Logan shared a number of photos of her skin when Topical Steroid Withdrawal flared up and has told her followers on multiple occasions that the issue is very painful.
“A lot of pain, a lot of discomfort and I can barely move, I can’t really sleep at night,” she said.
Topical Steroid Withdrawal usually last anywhere from few a months to several years.

Did Logan’s skin condition flare up on Survivor?
While Logan’s skin appeared slightly red on her forehead and cheeks during the Tribal Council when Laura was eliminated, she told Chattr that her skin was relatively calm during filming.
“I have a skin condition, so I was allowed to bring in a skin cream in case my skin flared up,” she explained.
“But I was really lucky out there that maybe the tropical climate and the rice and beans diet, my skin didn’t flare at all, so I didn’t really even need to use it.”
In her Instagram story, Logan reassured her followers that she wasn’t in pain from her skin condition while in Samoa.
“I was fine out there. I was provided the necessary medication that I needed. I’m just a bit more sensitive to the sun than other people, and in a water challenge as well. Where you’re underwater, your sunscreen comes off.”
We love the transparency!

There’s been another Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2025 switch-up, with Teejay Halkias revealing he wasn’t sure he had a future with Beth Kelly… after he had sex with her. It’s giving red flags, it’s giving fuckboy vibes, and everybody is feeling for the poor bride.
The groom tells Chattr it was a poor decision, and at least he’s being honest! He’d previously said that he needed an emotional connection to pursue sex, so you can see how Beth was led on.
“Watching it back now, I think it was definitely the wrong decision [to have sex with Beth],” Teejay admits. “I definitely don’t think that I should have even put forward the idea.”
He explains that during their confessions letter task, Beth claimed she didn’t need an “emotional connection” to have a “sexual interaction”, so he saw this as a “green light”.
“But, you know, I’m on the experiment to learn. I’m a human. I’m not perfect, and that’s all I can do, is learn from these things,” he adds.
It seemed like a switch had been flipped — similar to how Dave Handsuddenly didn’t have feelings for Jamie Marinos last week — so fans have been wondering what changed.

Teejay says that nothing happened to make him realise he didn’t feel deeply towards Beth, but he just wasn’t on the same wavelength.
“I just wasn’t growing those deeper feelings. I wasn’t sure why, Beth is a fantastic person, absolutely incredible,” he says.
However, he didn’t just fake it for the cameras and chose to be honest with her instead.
“I had three options there. I could have been honest, which I was, or I could have lied, or I could have been diplomatic the entire time. I stayed true to myself and I was honest with how I felt to Beth,” he spills.
“Unfortunately, you know, no one wins in that situation. That was so shit for me. I’d never wanted to hurt Beth or hurt her feelings or anything like that. So having to tell Beth that [I wasn’t sure about our future] was uncomfortable for me.”
Will Teejay and Beth write ‘leave’ at the next MAFS Commitment Ceremony?
The cast is careful to not give away any spoilers, but we already know that Teejay and Beth take part in Final Test Week — so at least one of them is writing ‘stay’!
Beth was blindsided by Teejay’s admission during this meal. Image: Nine
Teejay tells us that he has to consider Beth’s feelings carefully, and whether it’s better to rip the band-aid off now, or continue in the experiment with her.
“It’s definitely a thought of mine to write leave, but there’s also, I am in the experiment to try — so there’s also reason to write stay as well. It’s quite a hard decision for me,” Teejay says.
“Beth’s feelings are at the forefront of my mind and I’ve already evidently hurt Beth’s feelings, and it’s not what I’m here for,” he adds. “I’m just trying to navigate through that as best as possible, and it’s difficult. It’s really difficult.”
Their couch session on Sunday night is going to be fiery and heated! Let’s hope the experts hold Teejay to account and really grill him.
Married At First Sight 2025 airs Sundays at 7pm and Monday – Wednesday at 7:30pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
Married at First Sight (MAFS)star Domenica Calarco announced she’s expecting her first child in September, writing on Instagram, “Been a little MIA working on my greatest project yet… Baby.” However, fans quickly questioned why her partner, Jarod Bogunovich, wasn’t mentioned in the pregnancy update.
Domenica confirmed shortly after that she and Jarod had broken up, and he has now broken his silence on their co-parenting plans.
What did Jarod Bogunovich say about his pregnancy with Domenica Calarco?
Domenica took to Instagram to share some insight into her pregnancy on March 17 and said she’ll be “welcoming this baby as a solo parent”.
Meanwhile, Jarod remained tight-lipped about his role in the pregnancy until now. The Sydney skater took to Instagram on March 19 to confirm his split with Domenica and said he will play an active role in the baby’s life.
“As most of you already know, Dom and I are officially separated,” he wrote alongside an ultrasound video.
“Moving forward, my main priority is our child and stepping into the role of a father with as much love and support as I can offer. I’m committed to co-parenting and ensuring my child’s well-being is always at the forefront.”

Jarod asked for privacy as he gets ready “for this next journey ahead.”
Domenica Calarco and Jarod Bogunovich’s break up
Both Domenica and Jarod have officially announced that they’re no longer together and will be co-parenting their child.
The couple hard-launched their romance back in September 2024, when Domenica introduced Jarod to the world with a sweet Instagram post captioned “Bit of life #updates,” showing the two looking cosy at a restaurant.
The couple provided regular social media updates about their relationship until earlier this year. They’re still following each other on Instagram, but Jarod hasn’t been seen in a photo on Dom’s Instagram grid since December 2024 or on her TikTok since January 2025, which led to the (now confirmed) speculation that they’d split.
Domenica first hinted at the breakup in a TikTok comment on Sasha Morpeth‘s video on March 14, who shared a clip with the caption, “reconnecting with nature because I had launched a guy, and it was over before the IG story expired.”
Domenica has commented underneath it, saying, “Join the club babes, argh.”

Dom reveals tough pregnancy conditions
Since announcing her baby news, Dom has uploaded some content from earlier in her pregnancy, revealing she had to go to hospital during her first trimester after developing thyroid issues.
Dom elaborated on her thyroid condition in an AMA session on Instagram and said she went to the hospital twice during her first trimester when her thyroiditis flared up so that the baby could be monitored.
“I lost six kilos and feel like a shell of myself right now, so [I’m] trying to put on weight and eat as much as I can while I still don’t really have an appetite.”

When Season 2 of Real Housewives of Sydneywrapped up, fans were left wondering if NicoleO’Neil and Terry Biviano’sfriendship was really over after their on-air feud in Japan.
For context, in Season 2 Episode 9 (Terry-Aki Beef) Terry’s tardiness upset Nicole and major drama and fireworks ensued, spilling into Episode 10.
During an exclusive interview with Chattr, Nicole revealed the fallout with Terry continued in the lead up to the filming of Season 3.

“Terri and I were friends for many years… I didn’t hear from Terry for 12 months after filming, not a word!” said Nicole. “If somebody wants to have such little respect for me, they’re not really a friend anyway”.
When their paths did eventually cross at an event, she reports Terry snubbed her. “I was walking [past] on Derby Day and she turned her head and that was okay. She didn’t want to be my friend anymore.”
“I don’t want to be her friend,” Nicole continued. “If you choose to deal with the situation that way, then you’ve shown me who you are and I’m not interested in a relationship”.
Nicole’s moved on from the Real Housewives drama with Terry
Nicole now says she’s put the drama with Terry behind her.
“If someone is doing something that bothers me I just step away,” she explained. “I’ll confront them but then I move on. There are too many more important people and things in my life.”
Nicole added: “I think once you hit a certain age, you realise that it’s okay that not everyone likes you and and if if you’re happy with yourself and you’ve got a great group of friends around you and your family around… it’s okay. You’re not everyone’s cup of tea and that’s the beauty of this show”.
But behind the scenes, Nicole says she far more “multi-dimensional” than what viewers get to see on The Real Housewives of Sydney.
She keeps busy with her family, work, travel and charity work for Autism Mates. She also recently launched her new wellness brand BonPatch, which she said she’s “been working extensively over the last 12 to 18 months on”.
She says there’s a lot to get excited about for RHOS Season 3
Nicole described Real Housewives of Sydney Season 3, which is currently underway, as a great season with lots to look forward to.
“I think that it’s very colourful… Some great travel… Great outfits [and] it’s very glamorous,” she revealed. “Sydney, again, is definitely the star of the show in this season.”

So far, this season the drama between Nicole and Terry has continued, with the two not yet appearing together on the show.
Nicole was notably absent from Terry’s surprise appearance on Episode 3. She was also a no-show at Terry’s healing event with Jackie Gillies (RHOM) in this week’s episode (Episode 4), which was aimed at repairing broken friendships.
But for the fans who love the drama of RHOS, fear not, as Nicole hinted they can expect to see plenty more this season.
“You put eight very strong women in a pressure cooker for a number of months and you’re bound to get explosions,” she teased.

As this season of Married at First Sight Australia 2025 (MAFS) limps towards the finish line of final vows, it’s time to start reflecting on the equally joyous and tiring mess of a show that has taken over our lives the last couple of months.
One character this season has never strayed too far from the drama, and that’s Miss Jacqui Burfoot. From her wedding day, when she was left shivering in the cold before her husband dropped her on her head, to her ill-fated texting scandal with another groom and her rap sheet on all the ways Ryan Donnelly could improve, Jacqui has provided TV moment after TV moment, willingly or not.
There’s no denying Jacqui has entertained us. Image: Nine
MAFS’ Jacqui wins over fans as season draws to a close
While fans were left absolutely confused by Jacqui’s antics early on, many MAFS fans have begun to appreciate her chaos as the season comes to a conclusion.
“Am I the only person who finds Jacqui utterly entertaining?” one person commented on Instagram during the partner-swap week. “She’s bonkers, but a scream … much-needed laughs!”
That, teamed with the latest homestays episode, saw Jacqui win over a new legion of fans as she tearfully proclaimed to the camera that visiting Ryan’s home and seeing how he lived reminded her of “the elderly”. The left-of-centre comment left many fans in stitches, as Jacqui seemed genuinely distressed by the lonely way Ryan lived in his apartment and wasn’t trying to intentionally be funny, but the comedic timing and editing didn’t go unnoticed.
“The visit to Ryan’s house is the greatest piece of Australian television ever – I’ve never laughed so hard,” one person commented on MAFS recap TikTok, with someone else saying, “I’m so sorry they could never make me hate Jacqui.”
“Jacqui’s response was hilarious. She compared him to an old single isolated, lonely man… and she wasn’t wrong,” another person added, with another commenting, “I had actual tears rolling from laughing so hard.”
MAFS’ Jacqui may be confusing, but there’s no denying she’s carried the season
While MAFS fans are still wildly confused by some of Jacqui’s antics, no one is denying that she’s brought her fair share of chaos to the series and therefore spiced up the season dramatically. Even if you aren’t a fan, you can probably appreciate that the last few weeks would’ve become quite lacklustre without Jacqui.
“She is the epitome of ‘am I the drama?'” one MAFS fan said on a TikTok of Jacqui spilling behind-the-scenes tea. “I believe every word she says,” another commented.
And as for Jacqui’s tears during every other episode? Some fans now understand it.
“To be far if I was matched with Ryan I would cry also,” one person stated on TikTok.
And tbh, I do agree.

Australian Survivor‘s Laura Darras became the first member of the 2025 Jury, which means she’ll welcome each eliminated castaway—except the finalists—to the Jury Villa.
The Jury Villa is a beautiful Samoan property where the last 11 remaining contestants are sent after they are eliminated. It’s usually packed full of the snacks the castaways missed on the beach, has comfortable beds, and lets the evictees engage in vacation-like activities while the remaining contestants battle it out on the beach.
While the Jury Villa certainly sounds like a dream, the castaways who reside there will have one big job. They attend each of the upcoming Tribal Councils and will ultimately vote to decide the winner of Australian Survivor 2025.
In previous years of Australian Survivor, the first Jury member has set the tone for how the remaining players are received in the finale.
Laura told Chattr during a post-elimination interview that she considers herself the “queen of the Jury” and won’t take that responsibility lightly.

“As soon as I left tribal and I went into the Jury Villa, I sat down and thought, ‘Okay, what does being the queen of the Jury mean, and how am I going to influence all of the people that come after me?'” She said.
“I’m joining a group of very elite players, players that I have loved and respected for a really long time. So being the first member of the Jury was just a dream come true,” she added.
“I absolutely want to have that same amount of power,” Laura said. “I think each person that comes in after me, I’m going to sit down with them, dissect what they value in the game, and see if they have any biases towards any players left in the game.”

What is Laura looking for in an Australian Survivor winner?
Laura told Chattr that when it comes to her vote, she won’t be weighing in previous biases from her time on the show.
“I want to spread the narrative of praising strategic moves, even if it hurts our feelings. I want to vote for the sole survivor who has played the best game, and I want to influence all of the jurors after me to value strategy and a great social game.
“I think it’s my responsibility to make sure that they’re they take themselves and their pride out of it, and now this is about who’s played the best game. I will absolutely be judging who played the best game, no matter how long I played with them, no matter how close I was in the game.
“If they can show me that they have played a big, loud strategic game, that’s who I’m going to vote for, no matter how close I was with them in the game.”

Who does Laura think has what it takes to win Australian Survivor 2025?
Despite the fact that AJ played a heavy hand in Laura’s elimination, she told Chattr that she could still recognise how well he was playing Survivor.
Before they became household names and propelled to stardom by being beamed into our living rooms four nights a week, the Married at First Sight Australia 2025 (MAFS) cast were just normal people who have also gone through cute, awkward, or not-overly-trendy growing up moments.
From Carina Mirable’s blonde moment, to Jamie Marinos’Nine News interview, andTeejay Halkias’ emo-looking model photo shoot, we’ve compiled some of the most iconic 2025 MAFS cast transformations all in one place for you.
Enjoy!
Carina Mirable
From blonde to a badass brunette. Image: Nine
Carina is undoubtedly this season’s resident fashion queen, admitting to spending up to $15,000 on hair and makeup during filming. While we’ve seen some experimental hairstyles on the show with long ponytails and wet hair looks, a flashback photo from the premiere episode showed Carina sporting a very different look for her 21st birthday, rocking some curled blonde locks.
Rhi Disljenkovic

It’s no secret Rhi is passionate about health and fitness, and it looks like she’s even dabbled in a little bit of body-building/fitness modelling in the past!
Jamie Marinos

A screenshot of Jamie was shared to a MAFS fanpage, showing the breakout star of the season being interviewed by Nine about a robbery that took place in a store she managed. Fans likened the old snap of her to Australian TV personality Carrie Bickmore.
Awhina Rutene

While we know Awhina would look great brunette or blonde, thanks to her twin sister Cleo rocking the dark locks, a throwback photo on Instagram shows the twins with matching lighter brown hair with a copper tinge. We love it!
Jacqui Burfoot

Miss New Zealand herselfJacqui wasn’t lying when she talked about her past modelling experience. If you dive deep enough into her Instagram, you’ll find the snaps. As well as many cute pics of her holding flowers, definitely not bought by Ryan.
Teejay Halkias

Teejay looking like he could be the lead singer of a modern metalcore band wasn’t on my Bingo card, but while we’re used to a smiley Teejay on screen, there’s no denying the model really does pull off dark and mysterious well.
Eliot Donovan
Eliot’s put the fake tan down and it’s for the best. Image: Nine
Eliot once dabbled in a bit of topless waiting and there’s no denying he’s got the rig for it, but we’re glad he’s laid off the Bondi Sands now.
Dave Hand

There was once a Dave without all the tats! While the MAFS groom hasn’t changed heaps over time, his neck piece came on a little bit later in life.

Temptation Island is undoubtedly one of the most shocking reality shows around, and with the news that it would be given the Netflix treatment, fans in Australia were gearing up to watch four new relationships potentially implode.
However, as the premiere date for Temptation Island approached and passed — and online chatter about this year’s couples ramped up, Aussie viewers were still left with a “we don’t have Temptation Island” message on their Netflix.
So, is Temptation Island 2025 ever coming to Australian Netflix — or any other platform?

Is Temptation Island Season 6 available to watch in Australia?
Temptation Island Season 6 dropped on Netflix all over the world on March 12 — even in New Zealand.
Season 6 is the first to be commissioned by Netflix. Seasons 1 – 3 were broadcast on Fox before the show moved to USA Network for Seasons 4 and 5. All five seasons of Temptation Island are available to stream on 7plus.
With that in mind, fans of the show may be assuming that Temptation Island Season 6 will premiere on Channel 7, too. But that isn’t the case.
A spokesperson for Channel 7 confirmed to Chattr that the network doesn’t have the rights to Temptation Island Season 6.
Interestingly, it doesn’t sound as though Netlifx will be dropping Temptation Island Season 6 at a later date, either, with a spokesperson for the streaming giant telling Chattr that there’s “no news on whether it will have a Netflix release in Australia.”
So it’s bad news for Australian Temptation Island fans because, as of now, there’s no way to legally watch the spicy dating show down under. Boo!

What is Temptation Island about?
The premise of Temptation Island involves four already established couples who want to ‘test’ their relationship. The couples are split up by gender, and the males and females live in a house with a group of single contestants of the opposite sex.
They will have the opportunity to try and find new connections with the singles and will intermittently be able to see video updates of what their partners have been up to at the other villa.
At the end of the experiment, both sides of the couple will decide whether they want to leave the island with their original partner, with someone new, or single.
Dave took Jamie to meet his dad, who missed their wedding due to undertaking chemotherapy and it was on that visit that Dave received some good news, with his dad telling him that two of his tumours had significantly shrunk, and one had gone completely.
MAFS fans left in tears over sweet home stays moment with Dave and Jamie
With Jamie also getting the tick of approval from Dave’s family, the much-needed heartwarming moment left MAFS fans feeling emotional.
“What a relief!!! That is amazing news!! He would have been all over the place worrying about his dad,” one person commented on the official MAFS Instagram page.
“This kind of connection / real stories / real people wanting to find love is what this should be about, not people after social media likes,” another said.
Others were relieved to see Jamie and Dave looking strong again.
“I think Jamie and Dave are a good match – their relationship issues finally showed and hopefully they can get out of their own ways to be together,” one person said.
“It’s nice to see this side of him again. Open and honest. There’s a different light to both of them in these clips, I’m so hopeful for them,” another commented.
“Full on sobbing last night,” someone agreed with her.
MAFS fans point out editing fail in emotional episode
While the scene was obviously emotional, many fans couldn’t help but notice an editing mishap in the episode, with Dave going from clean-shaven when meeting Jamie’s sister in the Monday night episode, to having a full beard again by Tuesday’s episode.
“How did his beard grow so fast? [He had a] beard when he went to the cafe with Jamie’s sister, no beard next day when they moved back in together, then beard again next day in this scene,” one person said.

“Beard grew quick in a few days,” another joked.
“In reality they met with Dave’s dad before meeting with Jamie’s sister, but the show edited it the other way around,” another pointed out.

Payton Ellicott is looking to find love as one of the leads in Season 3 of Love Triangle.
However, what you might know is the dating show isn’t Payton’s first stint on the reality silver screen.
In fact, you might recognise her as a contestant from Season 1 of Million Dollar Island that aired on Channel 7 in 2023.
Who is Love Triangle’s Payton Ellicott?
Payton is a 25-year-old concreter and owner of the fashion brand Pack Your Pony, which draws inspiration from Australian flora, fauna, landmarks, and infrastructure.
Currently living in Coffs Harbour, she’s loud, funny, and unapologetically herself. She’s sharp with a big personality, and believes she’ll win anyone over if they give her a chance.
According to Stan, after moving back home to Coffs to save money while growing her business, she’s found dating in a small town a bit of a struggle. Now Payton is hoping Love Triangle will introduce her to someone who finally gets her vibe.
How did she fare on Million Dollar Island?
Based on a Dutch format by John de Mol, Million Dollar Island was like Survivor times 100, with 100 contestants competing for a million dollars.
Sounds promising, right? Unfortunately, the Australian version was cancelled after one season, and no one actually won a million dollars.

At the time, Payton was listed as a retail manager, still living in Queensland. While she didn’t make it to the end of the game, she still gained quite a bit of attention for her sharp wit and vibrant personality.
In an Instagram post, she reflected on a tough block challenge that led to her exit but said she was “grateful for my experience here. I’ll always remember it. I’m also grateful for the friends I’ve made.”
Plus her stint set the stage for round two in the spotlight.
Created by the same team behind the smash hit, MAFS,Love Triangle follows five singles who are set up with two online dating matches. Similar to Love Is Blind, the show is meant to foster a connection first before the singles set eyes on each other.
After a period of online talking, they choose one match to move in with to see if they can make the romantic connection work IRL. However, the relationship will be challenged when the other match is brought into the living situation.
Is there a Love Triangle trailer?
There sure is! Watch Payton cracking up the Love Triangle cast and bringing the laughs already, making it clear: “if I get sent an eggplant. I’m done.”

Sam Pang’s new show was announced alongside other big titles at the Channel 10 Upfronts. Image: Ten.
What is Sam Pang Tonight’s new TV show about?
As Channel 10 puts it, Sam Pang Tonight is “something refreshingly familiar” — a classic tonight show.
Filmed in front of a live audience, it’ll have all the usuals: a monologue both on the week’s news, interviews with local and international guests, and plenty of laughs with Sam’s comedy mates.
“Sam Pang has been part of the 10 family for over a decade and we’re delighted to have commissioned his brand-new show for 2025,” said Daniel Monaghan, SVP Content and Programming for Paramount Australia, at the Channel 10 Upfronts.
“Sam’s quick wit has kept Aussies laughing for years, and we know his fresh new program will give audiences exactly what they want.”
And really, who doesn’t love a good tonight show?
When does Sam Pang Tonight air?
Fans can tune into the eight-episode season of Sam Pang Tonight on Mondays from around 8:30pm (after Australian Survivor) on Channel 10 and 10play.
Will Sam keep his gig on other shows?
Yes! Ten confirmed that Sam’s new role won’t affect his spot as a panellist on the Logie-winningHave You Been Paying Attention? with host Tom Gleisner.
So, while Sam Pang Tonight is his latest project, rest assured he’s not going anywhere.

So, whether you’re tuning in for the monologue, the guests, or just Sam himself, it looks like Monday nights are officially sorted.
Sam Pang Tonight airs Monday nights on Channel 10 and 10Play.
Before we jump into that shitshow, let’s get the other couples out of the way.
Rhi and Jeff: Rhi saying, “It was meant to be, Jeffy”, is the cutest shit I’ve seen from these exes this season; coming a close second would be Jeff giving Rhi a key.
It’s unfortunate this looks so staged tho. Image: Nine
Beth and Teejay: The last intruders standing are somehow still here after bumping uglies for a second time.
“It was good,” he said. Image: Nine
Beth’s best friend thinks Teejay is very rehearsed with what he says, and when he says things like “romantic stimulation”, I don’t disagree.
Babe I think he watches rom-coms. Image: Nine
He doesn’t really see a future with Beth right now so they’re fucked.
Jamie and Dave: The pair have kissed and made up (and touched ass). Dave has grown a full beard overnight!
Hope he doesn’t have any plans in Manly. Image: Nine
Dave’s dad thinks he is very happy with Jamie but I have questions about when this was filmed.
Ryan & Jacqui: Ryan tells his dog “I brought someone new” upon introducing Jacqui to him. Um, someone “new”? Makes it sound like that’s a common event. Low-key surprised, he wore white jeans to greet his dog that he hadn’t seen in months.
Anyway the house Ryan owns in South West Sydney is enough to make Jacqui cry. Is that saying anything at this point?
Image: Nine
TBH, if my partner had a Vegas visor or Bintang stubby on display, I’d both cry, vomit and not speak to him for a week.
Manly would never. Image: Nine
“It really reminds me of the elderly,” Jacqui says of Ryan’s living conditions. All is not lost, though, because he does have a goal board and to-do list that Jacqui takes it upon herself to fill out.
Donate Bintang merch to charity. Image: Nine
He takes that on the chin (which has too many hairs for Jacqui’s liking) but doesn’t love it when she tells him how to “manage” his pet during a walk.
It only gets worse between the pair when they arrive at a venue that feels too nice to be that empty.
So this is the local hot spot hey? Pumping!!! Image: Nine
Jacqui has one support person there, and Ryan has two. I do not know their relationships with these people, but I do know that Jacqui’s person seemingly sat there silently while Ryan’s people ripped into Jacqui.
Listen, his house doesn’t have a tennis court. Image: Nine
Are you really a reality star if you don’t have a Cameo account? We think not. So it’s no surprise that a bunch of the Married at First Sight (MAFS) 2025 cast are charging fans a pretty penny to get a personalised video from them.
For the uninitiated, Cameo is a platform where public figures can sell specifically requested video messages. If the creators are happy to cover the requested topic and the fan is down to pay their asking price, the video will be commissioned and sent digitally.
So far, four of the MAFS 2025 cast have signed up to Cameo, but with the season coming to a pointy end, it’s very likely that more Brides and Grooms will jump on board to cash in on their 15 minutes of fame.
Here are all the MAFS 2025 stars who’ve joined Cameo so far and how much they’re charging.
Dave Hand
Dave’s profile. Image: Cameo.
At a whopping $70.65, Dave Handcharges the most among his peers for a personalised clip.
“Willow’s dad,” his profile reads, referring to his Weimaraner pup.
However, Dave’s run on the video-sharing platform hasn’t been exactly smooth. On March 13, Chattr reported that a Cameo video of Dave appearing to send his love to controversial rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was shared.
As one person on TikTok pointed out, it seemed as though Dave had a prank pulled on him by the person requesting the video. Dave profile says that his last video was sent on March 11 — so it looks as though the stunts put a temporary pause on his Cameo content creation career.
Billy Belcher may have exited MAFS early on in the piece, but he’s still trying to make a quick buck on Cameo. The 2025 Groom charges $54.95 per clip, and his average video length is one minute, which makes his hourly rate *checks notes* $3,297. Gulp.
Anyway, Billy’s profile starts off in a generic fashion. “Birthdays, celebrations or for your partner I’m here to help you guys out in sending a message,” it reads.
However, Billy then appears to hint at sharing some MAFS goss with paying customers.
“Even any questions you would like to ask I’m here,” it continues.
Regardless, at $23.55, Jacqui’s personalised video messages are a bargain compared to Dave and Billy’s, and her bio is undoubtedly iconic.
“Jac-Jac-Jacqui from Married at First Sight Australia (MAFS)! I can fake CRY because I’m not at your event, give CRAZY EYES, do a RAP SHEET ROAST, dating advice, give your boyfriend Ryan-style advice!” It reads.
Which is exactly what makes his Cameo price so adorable. Jacqui and Clint have identical prices for a short clip, at $23.55 each. All the makings of true and lasting love, IMHO.
