Married At First Sight’s Bec Zacharia has gotten candid about her drama-packed honeymoon with groom Danny Hewitt.\u00a0<\/p>\n

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.\u00a0<\/p>\n

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.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“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.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“He denies it to this day and was furious at me for bringing it up,” she alleged.\u00a0<\/p>\n

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.\u00a0<\/p>\n

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.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The brutal response was hard to come back from for Bec, particularly because it brought up some of her insecurities.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt sort of made me hate myself a little bit,” she confessed, adding that she blamed herself for not being “pretty” enough.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Married At First Sight Australia is finally back, with the 2026 instalment of the hit reality series kicking off earlier this week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

“This cast treats it like the Olympics of drama,” one production insider told the publication.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“If you thought last season was bad, you haven’t seen anything yet.”<\/p>\n

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.\u00a0<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

\"Woke<\/p>\n

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.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What’s more, this year’s MAFS cast were required to undergo weekly drug tests throughout the filming period after several characters went rogue.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

They were also given a strict curfew and were ordered back to their apartments by 8pm on Fridays and Sundays, and 9pm on Saturdays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Married At First Sight’s Bec Zacharia has gotten candid about her drama-packed honeymoon with groom Danny Hewitt.\u00a0 The…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":461857,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[64,63,237114,134,237113,108353,11252,427],"class_list":{"0":"post-461856","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-bec-zacharia","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-mafs-2026","13":"tag-married-at-first-sight","14":"tag-reality-tv","15":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/461856","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=461856"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/461856\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/461857"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=461856"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=461856"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=461856"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
