The drama kicked off in the premiere episode of Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026, when Gia Fleur was shown calling Bec Zacharia a “five out of ten” at the hens’ party.
However, in an interview with Chattr, Gia clarified that she was responding to an extremely derogatory comment Bec had made about her first, explaining that shortly after she arrived at the hen’s party, Bec called her a “trashy s**t’.
“She said it to my face, very early on in the night,” Gia told Chattr. “That was at the beginning of the evening, before I’d said anything, but that wasn’t shown, so I get why people are thinking I’m horrible, but a lot of things are out of context, and not the whole evening was shown.”
The mum-of-one went on to say that her comment about Bec being a “five out of ten” played out differently in real life.
“To me, that’s not really what happened that night. We were there for hours, and you guys saw six minutes. That wasn’t very accurate of what happened. A lot of what I did and said was taken out of context, like the comment about Bec being a 5 out of 10. I wasn’t referring to her looks. It was referring to how she was treating me.”
Gia explained that the reaction she received from some of the other women at the Hen’s night was extremely disheartening.
“I was judged the entire night. I was given death stares. There were a lot of comments made about me, and because I’ve been bullied before, and I used to just take it, I wanted to protect myself. So, I went into defence, and I felt triggered, and I’m okay. I’ve just got to, I’ve got to unleash now, and I’ve got to protect myself and back myself. So, that’s what was shown.”

Gia says there are ‘two sides’ to Bec
It sounds like there’s no love lost between Gia and Bec, with Gia telling Chattr that she thinks Bec is sneaky with the way she treats people.
“I think with Bec there are two sides, and she likes to be careful, and she wants to say things in a certain way, and kind of a little bit get away with it.
“Whereas I just say whatever’s on my mind, there’s no filter. I’ll say the same thing behind your back that I’d say to your face. There’s no difference.
Gia said she felt like Bec “judged” her straight away, adding that was what ultimately triggered her to clap back at Bec during the hens’ party.
“I don’t know if it’s there’s insecurities there, or what it is that she felt the need to look at me at face value and just assume that I’m this and that. But yeah, that’s essentially what she did, and I felt attacked, and you know that I just gave it back, pretty much.”
“I think going forward in the show, you’ll see both sides, hopefully, and you’ll see it’s not just me. There are other people who do some things that are questionable.”
Honestly, it sounds like we have another Dom vs Olivia situation on our hands this year.
