“It’s bad, it’s really bad and it’s made me worry for my children,” she shares. “To think my kids will have to grow up in this social media world and possibly have to deal with online bullying is scary,” she adds.

The hate has been hurtful for the competitive duo, but they are coping by “not reading anything” online.

“People need to understand that there’s a person behind that face on TV and they actually have feelings,” says the children’s clothing designer.

Despite the backlash, Georgia says she is happy with how she and her husband played the game. “We are honest and up-front, and it may be a little confronting at first, but at least you know where we stand.”
