  Speaker 1: The Celebrity News.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: You like that guards all right? So you now, I've
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: been talking this week about Math's UK because brides have
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: come forward from a season back in twenty twenty three.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: I believe it was claiming sexual assault from their on
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: screen husbands and that they told production at the time
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: and nothing was done about it. So now obviously they're
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: looking into it. They've even pulled all seasons of Married
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: at First Sight UK from streaming platforms and things like that,
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: so it's been treated very serious. When it comes to
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: the Australian version of former MATHS bride Jackie Burfoot has
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: come out and she's now making claims about some of
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: the things she witnessed on the Australian show. Now, Jackie
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: was a bride last season and she said that some
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: of the brides on her season allegedly were the victims
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: of domestic abuse and some men even had criminal records.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: She's like posted this video on Instagram. She's basically slamming production,
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: slamming show producers, and she says the reason these storylines
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: never made it to air is because it wasn't suitable
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: for prime time TV. Now, this was quite a long video,
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: so we've cut it down, but have a listener to
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: what she said.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: The question is whether the Maths environment contributes to this.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: I absolutely think it does. I know for a fact
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: that they cast outgoing, outrageous individuals who are going to
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: cause drama. Yes, a tendency to cast men, in particular
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: with domestic violence backgrounds, even like histories of criminal records
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: and things like that, and it is quite alarming in
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: my season if this did happen and there were men
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: cast with criminal records, there were women that became victims
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: to these behaviors. A lot of it never went to
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: air because it's not suitable for primetime TV.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is blown up in the UK and
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: they've basically canceled the show, and you know how popular
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: it is here in Australia. Yeah, it's almost pioneering, like
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: a me too movement among reality contestine. So it wouldn't
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: surprise me if these women who felt like they were
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: so stuck under their contracts because they basically signed their
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: life away for a year. But when it films to
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: when it airs like they've got no control.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: We can't. It's like, can we be shocked that we're
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: not watching Maths thinking that they've just got a bunch
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: of people who are all squeaky clean, and they're doing
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: it matching them for true love, I mean, they're doing
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: it for drama.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: Oh, here you are.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: But they've got to vet them properly, right, You've got
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: to find out who these people are. This is a thing.
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: Though you do sign up. I mean Jackie, Jackie's lovely.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: What you see is what you get with her, right,
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: But the thing is, you do sign your life away.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: You do let them do whatever. So it's kind of like,
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: I think after the fact, but then don't do it. Yeah,
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: but you know that they want to do it because then.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so they agree to.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: That, I mean agreeing to those things like signing your
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: life away and your socials being controlled by Channel nine
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: or whatever. That's one thing. But to feel as if
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: you can't, you know, even speak up when something like
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: this is happening, that's pretty serious.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Well yeah, if absolutely, they shouldn't. It should be taken
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: way more seriously. If something does go wrong,
