MAFS 2026 couple swap scandal spoiler

Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026 has already seen a bitter feud break out between Bec Zacharia and Gia Fleur, but a sneaky source tells Chattr it’s only going to get worse, thanks to Danny Hewitt’s wandering eye.

While Bec and Danny are “best mates”, the lack of sexual chemistry has put a bit of a dampener on their relationship. An insider says the drama will ramp up during the upcoming Dinner Parties, with Danny telling Gia she’s “more his type than Bec”.

“Only one person hears Danny telling Gia she’s more his type than Bec, and because it was off-camera, nobody believes Gia when she tries to tell the group,” the source spills.

“Danny denies it to keep the peace, but it means Bec and other brides turn on Gia.”

It becomes a major argument throughout multiple Dinner Parties, with Gia’s husband, Scott McCristal, supporting the bride through all the chaos.

“Scott was great throughout the drama. He and Gia were solid and had a good foundation for most of the experiment,” the insider adds.

According to our source, Gia eventually brings out screenshots during one particularly spicy Dinner Party, and proves she was right all along.

“Finally, near the end of the experiment, people start to believe Gia and realise that Danny wasn’t telling the truth,” they claim. “So everything gets sorted out at the end.”

What other MAFS 2026 spoilers do we have?

Another insider has confirmed to Chattr that Brook Crompton left the show at the start of August.

Seeing as MAFS only started filming in July, it means that Brook and her husband Chris Nield didn’t last very long.

Brook also told Chattr she is spending Valentine’s Day with a “non fat-shaming man”, AKA, not Chris.

We’re glad those two are over.
