This is the worst outcome ever .

I often find it more interesting when things don't go to plan while they're in the bachie bubble.

When things don't translate to the real world, meh, I'm not surprised. But when it falls to pieces while they're in an environment where a whole team of people are actively trying to push people into each other... that's when it gets good for me (and the behind the scenes gossip).

Final week, here we go.



ETA: Comment on the same post. So ATFR is suddenly back on? Weird.

Oh well spotted @blueblues - they must have realised they need to put this thing to bed.  

I wonder if they knew Lesina was going to "have her say" after Monday no matter what...

@blueblues Oh so it is on now?
Will be interesting to see what goes down with Aaron, the boys all talked crap about him stating they won't even talk to him, but since that show they are all happy families, and not to mention Lesina clearly had enough and 'blocking' Bette IG since then also.
@Bobette I think you're right about that, IMO all the cast are wanting to talk openly now, and perhaps their contracts only went to a certain date so TPTB can't muzzle them.

If I can speculate a little, something went down at the ATFR taping that made Lesina unfollow/block a number of people and start making spoilery comments. At this point she only follows Lily and Daryl, not even Art.

What if TPTB realised that dragging a doctor for entertainment and having a heated conflict with her in the media would be a PR disaster when the pandemic is about to hit NZ? If so, the announced delay may have been because they were working on an agreement with her, while perhaps re-editing the ATFR.


Not a face to mess with right now (this was six days ago).

It's past the point of no return with the edit the receive, and with no BIP season as a carrot held over their heads the show really has no way to muzzle them. They're not paid (or not paid enough), no court would uphold a penalty for them speaking out of turn, regardless of the contract's terms. It's like that 5 million dollar nonsense on US Bach contracts - it's never been applied and never will... the only ones they'd have a chance of penalising a little bit is the lead since they're paid.

Nobody speaks out of turn in the US because they all want to be asked back on for BIP and then once they give up on that they'll talk.... except guys like Luke P and others who aren't interested in turning the show into a career and speak out as soon as they start doing interviews.

Jeepers she sure doesn’t hold back does she?!?

Was wondering where the Happy Couple IG post was - Lily has explained she can't comment until after tomorrow night's Tell All, but her finger guns are promising...



One thing I do notice is that she seems to have lost a lot of weight since the show, and isn't sporting the same "birth control tittays" she boasted after Winter Games.

Lily reposted an IG story from @sineadcorcoran_ of NZ Herald, and then they both took it down. I’m kicking myself for not capping it.

It was from a Skype call, Lily and Richie were sitting in front of a house, and I’m 70% sure that she wore the same green bikini top as in her other stories, so I’m guessing it was from earlier that day.

I’m just going to put this here.  

Thanks for posting @blueblues.  I still don't see the same giddy-in-love Lily I saw with Courtney, but I'll take anything I can get at this point.  

I look forward to seeing how they are together off-camera, and hopefully we might get some "catch up" posts of what they've been up to since filming.  

I want to see silliness, and I want to see Richie really appreciating who Lily is, because at this point I am still not convinced that he's all in.
