HEIDI AND MIKE SPLIT AFTER MAFS VOW RENEWAL

Mrs O’Keeffe wasn’t happy with the way her mate Heidi was treated on the show by her reality TV husband and Gold Coast contestant Mike Gunner.

“I don’t miss seeing Mike totally ignore her needs and say sexist righteous comments,” Ms O’Keeffe wrote.

“As the dust settles on #mafs just wanted to say how proud I am of my darling friend (sic),” she wrote.

“It’s been such a surreal experience watching a true friend on a reality show.”

She also shut down rumours that Ms Latcham may have been a paid actor on the show.

“(I) can say that Heidi behaved exactly as she is in real life,” Ms O’Keeffe wrote.

“All I can do is come to the conclusion that all of the others did the same.

“When I now interview ‘reality stars’ on my radio show I’m not going to fall for the ‘it’s the way they edited it’ BS they say to defend themselves (sic).”
