Married At First Sight’s Bec Zacharia has gotten candid about her drama-packed honeymoon with groom Danny Hewitt.
The account manager from South Australia was left devastated after her husband’s wandering eye and brutal confession sucked the romance out of their Fiji vacation.
Bec told TV Week that a mystery woman at the resort – who turned out to be a wedding photographer working at the hotel next door – caught the eye of her newlywed husband multiple times.
“She ran past in her bikini with those big jugs bopping up and down, and he was doing triple takes,” the 35-year-old confessed to the outlet.
“He denies it to this day and was furious at me for bringing it up,” she alleged.
Things only went downhill from there for the reality star, whose confidence was bruised after the experts sent the infamous honesty box to interrupt the couple’s dinner.
When asked by the question card if he felt any sexual chemistry with his wife, the 34-year-old real estate agent plainly replied “no”, despite the pair being intimate the night before.
The brutal response was hard to come back from for Bec, particularly because it brought up some of her insecurities.
“It sort of made me hate myself a little bit,” she confessed, adding that she blamed herself for not being “pretty” enough.
Married At First Sight Australia is finally back, with the 2026 instalment of the hit reality series kicking off earlier this week.
Season thirteen is already rumoured to be the most controversial season yet, with many insiders claiming this year’s brides and grooms are as unpredictable as they are dramatic.
Sources dubbed the upcoming season a “crisis management nightmare”, Daily Mail reports, thanks to the many explosive dinner parties, bombshell walkouts, unforeseen alliances and all-round drama that has become synonymous with the show.
“This cast treats it like the Olympics of drama,” one production insider told the publication.
“If you thought last season was bad, you haven’t seen anything yet.”
Some of the speculation swirling regarding this year’s cast certainly backs up the statement, with one bride rumoured to have quit the show just days after her on-screen wedding, Daily Mail reports.
While another bride is said to have gone missing for fourteen hours without any notice, sparking a full-scale production emergency, according to the publication.
Others didn’t even make it to the first dinner party, with an internal investigation ending with a couple’s early exit from the show.
What’s more, this year’s MAFS cast were required to undergo weekly drug tests throughout the filming period after several characters went rogue.
The new rule – which has never been implemented before during MAFS production – meant that any participant who returned a positive result would be booted off the social experiment immediately.
They were also given a strict curfew and were ordered back to their apartments by 8pm on Fridays and Sundays, and 9pm on Saturdays.
