โ€œIf I was to release something Iโ€™d have to get Tracey involved.โ€

As we pushed for some more goss on what theyโ€™re planning โ€“ Deano agreed a charity single would be something heโ€™d pursue.

Weโ€™re sure the record deals are already rolling in!

However, weโ€™re not so sure Trace will be on board after the reunion eps.

2) Alycia is ALWAYS crying

Alycia Galbraith really is as sweet as she seemed on the show โ€“ but also as fragile!

After breaking down during our bikini photo shoot due to her body insecurities, prompting Davina Rankin to reassure her saying, โ€œyouโ€™ve come so far,โ€ it wasnโ€™t long until we seen the bubbly bride bawling again.

Alycia broke down once more at the NRL launch on February 28 after a sneaky reporter from another publication tricked her into an off-record interview.

Fun fact: sheโ€™s also scared of balloons and allergic to papaw!

The bubbly bride is always bawling.

3) Ten minutes in a toilet with Troy

When NW suggested Troy Delmege films himself giving us a teeth brushing tutorial for a bit of fun during our sexy shoot with him and Ashley Irvin โ€“ we werenโ€™t quite expecting him to go for ten whole minutes.

NWโ€˜s camera manโ€™s arm was aching holding the camera, tooth paste was foaming onto the floor and everyone else was wondering why two blokes had just spent so long in the bathroom together.

4) Davina is exactly how she seems

She claimed the show portrayed her unfairly throughout the infamous โ€œaffairโ€ before turning her attention to several anti-bullying campaigns for some much needed damage control โ€“ but viewers once again saw her true colours during the dinner party reunion.

NW witnessed Davvy true to form on one of our photo shoots.

โ€œOh my god why do you have that phone?โ€ she called out to one NW reporter after witnessing their battered iPhone 6.

โ€œItโ€™s so oldโ€ฆ you should get an iPhone X.โ€

5) The girls love a freebie

Most of the girls have developed a reality star wardrobe to go with their reality show statusโ€ฆ After a lot of hard work!

โ€œA group of the girls would spend time contacting boutiques throughout filming to get freebies by promising the brands theyโ€™re going to be famous soon,โ€ an on set source tells us.

And itโ€™s not just the ladies, with Telv Williams recently accepting an offer for some male Botox and dental work.

6) Justin is suuuuper jealous

While NW was hanging with Troy ahead of another interview, conversation quickly turned to Justin Fischer.

โ€œHe keeps asking us all how we have so many more Instagram followers than he does,โ€ Troy joked.

โ€œWe went to the casino and he was getting really jealous that everyone only wanted pictures with me and didnโ€™t realise he was on the show too.โ€

7) Nasserโ€™s (edited out) speech caused a stir

Amongst all the fights and falling out at the reunion dinner party, Nasser Sultanโ€™s controversial speech didnโ€™t make the final cutโ€ฆ so weโ€™ll let you in on it!

โ€œAfter saying some nice words to the group ahead of their meal, Nasser ended by turning to Sarah [Roza] and saying, โ€˜Lastly, Sarah, weโ€™re all just wonderingโ€ฆ. Do you actually own any t-shirts? Weโ€™re sick of looking at them.โ€

As laughter roared around the room, Sarah (and her busty display) didnโ€™t appreciate Telv joining in with the lols. โ€œBut it was funny,โ€ he exclaimed to his unamused wife.

8) Foxy Jo Jo is struggling to pay the bills

โ€œBecause I wasnโ€™t going to be home for a while my mother said her grandkids come first in her life and quit her job to look after them while I was away,โ€ single mum Jo McPharlin told us during an interview.

โ€œWe were all under the impression Iโ€™d be the whole experiment โ€“ not just a couple of weeks until someone does a runner. She sacrificed her job forever, sheโ€™s 65 now and she couldnโ€™t get it back.โ€

When asked if the family will survive financially, Jo responded, โ€œIโ€™m not quite sure.โ€

9) The cast are mobbed everywhere

Even during our days off and out of the office, we couldnโ€™t escape MAFS mania!

As NWโ€˜s writer Josh struggled to find his friends amongst the crowds at Bondi beach during a recent Sunday morning in the sun, he quickly spotted Nasser in the middle of the action and realised heโ€™s why a crowd had formed in the first place.

As Josh muscled his way through to say a quick hello, he ended up spending 30 minutes as Nassโ€™s official photographer ushering fans over one by one for a selfie.
