I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star Cyrell Paule has opened up about her Married At First Sight (MAFS) feud with Martha Kalifatidis. During one of the most explosive Dinner Parties back in 2019, Martha poured her entire glass of wine on Cyrell. This didn’t go down well, with Cyclone Cyrell chasing Martha around the table, attempting to throw wine all over her enemy’s white dress.
During an interview with news.com.au, Cyrell said she’s not one to forgive and forget. “I wish I threw the red wine at her too,” the contestant said. “I know it sounds petty, and look, you know she’s a mum now of two and stuff. And I, probably should be like, letting go and being mature, but no. I don’t care.”
Cyrell added that her opinion of Martha hasn’t changed, even though the wine incident happened over seven years ago, and described her as a “bit of a snake”. Perhaps she prefers the actual snakes on I’m A Celeb to the human kind on MAFS!
The MAFS stars haven’t spoken much since the show aired, although Martha did try and reach out during the Luke and Sassy podcast in 2024. At the time, Martha said she didn’t have “beef” with Cyrell, and that their drama was “fabricated”, but Cyrell refused to speak to her.
“She tried to reach out and I was like, I always felt like it was for social media,” Cyrell said. “Like why would you reach out and put it through Instagram for people to see? Like, ‘Sorry about this Cyrell’, kiss my ass you lying bitch, honestly…. once I hate you, I hate you for life.”
Cyrell Paule and Jessika Power’s MAFS feud
Cyrell isn’t the only MAFS star who can hold a grudge, with Jessika Power recently telling Chattr she refuses to be in the same room as Cyrell.
The pair traded online barbs in 2024, with Cyrell describing Jessika as a “fake ass irrelevant bitch” on her Instagram Story. Jessika retorted, saying Cyrell was a “bitter [and] horrible girl”.
While Jessika told us she’d be keen to do MAFS again if the opportunity came up, she had one caveat: Cyrell wouldn’t be allowed to be part of the cast.
“I just wouldn’t want to be in a room with her. I’d just happily let the contract go,” Jessika said.
Well, it looks like there’s no love lost between these MAFS stars, even seven years down the track. Wonder if MAFS 2026 will bring us any new and juicy feuds when it airs next week?!
MAFS 2026 premieres on Monday, February 2 at 7.30pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
