Bronte reveals she fell out with Claire after she made ‘really hurtful’ comments on a podcast
‘I wasn’t aware we weren’t friends up until listening to that’
Married at First Sight Australia’s Bronte has said she is no longer friends with her co-star Claire after the controversial bride said she didn’t “fully” trust Bronte. Bronte and Claire were fairly close on the show but after a shady comment from Claire, their friendship has since broken down.
Speaking to So Dramatic! Bronte said she learned of some “hurtful things” Claire said about her on a podcast after the show stopped filming.
“I trusted her and she trusted me,” she said. “She’s entitled to her opinion, but the most hurtful thing for me, I guess, when it does come to this whole me and Claire thing, I don’t want to speak a bad word about her. I wasn’t aware that we weren’t friends up until listening to that.”

In an episode of Where’s Your Head At? MAFS Australia bride Claire said she was having a “battle” about being friends with Bronte after watching back the show.
“During MAFS, I connected with Bronte a lot,” the former bride said. “She’s strong, she’s sassy, she’s funny, we get along. I struggle because I know Bronte is not a stupid girl, I know that she’s smart. Watching [the show], you are either fake as sh*t, or you are either dumb as sh*t. Which one?
“And that is the battle that I’m having because I love her and I want to be friends with her. But watching that, I’m just like, ‘How can I stay true to my values and my morals… How can I be friends with somebody I may not necessarily fully trust?'”
