There’s one team everyone is talking about on this year’s season of My Kitchen Rules and it’s not for a nice reason.
Western Sydney brothers Josh and Austin have managed to insult virtually everyone at the table and have received backlash not just from the contestants, but from fans of the show watching at home.
In the few episodes we’ve seen, they’ve mimicked their South American competitors, likened Romel to Woody from Toy Story and have not made many fans.
Once they learned that the boys were home-schooled, the other teams quickly realised that they lack certain social etiquette skills.
“They don’t hold back. They’re just full-on. They’re intelligent, but they’re also very, very rude and disrespectful. That caused a lot of problems with us,” Ibby told TV WEEK.
Even Friendly Pirate Ash didn’t hold back. In an exclusive chat with Now To Love he told us, “I originally honestly thought they were putting it on until I spent a couple of months with them and realised it wasn’t just around the table.”
“I thought maybe they’re just trying to make a name for themselves as the bad guys on the table, but that’s who they are. They’re not trying to make a name for themselves, I think they think that’s the way they should be.”
Even Josh and Austin themselves admit they love to stir the pot and suffer from bouts of “word vomit.”
We’ve rounded up the best of the worst comments the two home-schooled brothers have ever said and some of them will leave you in shock!

“Don’t touch me.”

“Honestly I think everyone is speaking a different language so I’ll just say this really slowly,” to which Romel told the camera, “If. Josh. Speaks. Slowly. To. Me. Again. I’m going to lose my s—-.”
On tasting Stacey and Ash’s tuna tartare
“It’s flavourless, I’m literally eating just solid matter…the wasabi mayo was a damp mess.”

After the teams told them they were being offensive
“These guys are emotionally challenged and I don’t think they have a sense of humour.”
“I sometimes feel guilty for making people so upset. But then I realise that it’s their problem they are so emotionally fragile.”
To Jodie Anne
“What are you wearing? At 50, that’s not a good look.”
Upon seeing Mick and Jodie Anne’s instant restaurant
“I get an understanding of Mick and Jodie-Anne that they haven’t been exposed to much culture.”
