Gia and James: Secret Calls Exposed
After a tumultuous journey, it appears Gia Fleur and Scott McCristal have fallen at the final Married at First Sight Australia hurdle. The Final Task proved too much for the couple as Gia flirted with her alternative match James, while Scott felt sick at even having a conversation with his alternative match. Scott was later shown Gia during her date with James, leaving him heartbroken. During the date, James responded to Gia's advances and offered her his phone number. Co-star Bec Zachariah volunteered to keep his number safe until Gia needed it later. It turns out it wasn't long before Gia used James' number, as he has spoken out about their flirty phone calls.
James Reveals Phone Calls and Bikini Pics
James appeared on the spin-off show After The Dinner Party with Scott and revealed phone calls he had with Gia. He provided screenshots of his Instagram DMs showing the time and date of their calls. They had multiple phone calls before the final Dinner Party, meaning before Scott and Gia officially ended things. James said he didn't know Gia was still in the experiment at that point: "I didn't know that she was still in a relationship with Scott, that she was still going through the process. I wouldn't have carried on the conversation." James even shared that Gia had been sending him bikini pictures.
Gia Confronted on After The Dinner Party
Gia later appeared on After The Dinner Party and was grilled over her flirtatious phone calls and texts with James. She said she entertained James because she "liked the attention." She added that she did block James to focus on Scott, but after they ended, she unblocked him because he gave her "good advice." On why she lied to Scott about how flirtatious her date was with James, she said: "I was trying to soften the blow and act like it wasn't as bad as it was." However, she admitted: "But watching it back, yeah it was pretty bad."
