Unseen footage exposes shock betrayal on bombshell Love Triangle Season 3 reunion

Unseen footage airs on the reunion special of spicy Aussie dating series Love Triangle, exposing a forbidden kiss between two participants.

Secret kiss exposed in Love Triangle reunion

If you thought the Married At First Sight reunion was jaw-dropping, brace yourself for this similarly explosive Aussie dating series, Love Triangle.

In this series, five singles are matched with two suitors each, they all move in together (hence the “triangle” reference), and the single must choose between the two at the end of the experience. Pretty straightforward, right?

Well, given the Stan Original Series is created by the same producers of MAFS, don’t expect the participants to go sailing off into the sunset.

Case in point, the Season 3 reunion special, which aired on Sunday night, will have you asking Jacqui and Clint who?

In the reunion, hosted by US Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause, unseen footage was aired exposing a secret kiss between singles Bernie and Chloe.

The pair shocked the cast when the footage was shown, leaving their respective suitors –Marisa and Jazmin, and Beck and Emma – gobsmacked.

As their kiss aired, so does a voiceover of Bernie telling a producer he has no regrets about the kiss.

“Actually, I can’t lie to you. I don’t feel bad that I did it sneakily,” he says.

“What the f**k?” says Emma, who Chloe dumped on finale – the same day she ran to Bernie to say she would rather “pursue” him.

“That is such a f***ing blindside. What is that?” she added of the footage she just watched. “What a fool I feel like. What a fool.”

“You’re a f***ing tw*t!” Marisa tells Bernie, who is sat right next to him.

“You’re just a liar. You kissed (Chloe) when we were all together at a party, went behind all of our backs. Four of us are collateral damage. You couldn’t have waited? It’s so disrespectful.”

“It’s a game to you, all a game to you,” Jazmin added.

Beck was so distraught, she had to walk off set: “I’m going to have a panic attack, I’m so sorry,” she says.

When she later returns, she says, “I just feel invalidated. I feel completely lied to. I’m hurt, really hurt. I’m questioning everything now.”

If you thought that was a lot to unpack, Chloe reveals that Bernie also dumped her just 12 hours prior, before they began filming the reunion episode.

“I quite frankly think it was disgusting, and I feel like such an idiot,” she tells the group of Bernie’s behaviour after watching the footage.

“Bernie and I have been getting to know each other for the past few weeks.... Last night, Bernie told me that he didn’t want to continue pursuing me.”

But it’s not just those directly affected by the betrayal that let Bernie have it. Even controversial participant Mike – who was just as divisive on MAFS in 2019 when he appeared on the show – called Bernie out on his behaviour.

“Why’d you change your mind Bernie?” Mike asks about the break-up, to which a dejected Chloe says, “Because we have different senses of humour.”

Bernie finally pipes up and says he felt he just couldn’t be “100 per cent himself” with Chloe.

He also argued that he did like Chloe a lot, and even spent money on a romantic getaway to the Blue Mountains for them.

Mike, who also found fame on Married At first Sight, called Bernie out for being a ‘f**k boy’.

“Like, if I don’t feel anything for someone, why would I spend the money?” he says.

Host Stause puts him in his place, “That’s literally the playbook for f**k boys. Excuse my language, but it’s all to sleep with someone then move on to the next.”

“This is the thing I’ve noticed about you,” Mike tells Bernie in a heated exchange. “You’re never wrong. You’ve hurt these two girls, you’ve hurt those two girls. You can’t take acknolwdgement of the fact that you’re a f**k boy.”

“You snatched her up, you had your way with her, and last night you flicked her.”

Elsewhere in the reunion Payton – another one of the singles – discovers that Jordan, the suitor she chose in the end and was still dating at the reunion, does not actually find her attractive.

“F**k you, man. You know that I’m not attracted to that,” he was recorded telling co-star Nuri in an off-camera chat earlier in the season.

“I asked for small, tan, ethnic... But she is the complete opposite in every single thing.”

Payton also learned that her chosen one Jordan is not attracted to her as a hot-mic moment airs.

“I’m not gonna f***ing date her. It’s bulls**t,” he continued. “Literally any other girl here I would be into.”

Although Payton was left shellshocked, she did manage to spit out, “That’s f***ed”.

Stause did warn viewers of the drama to come. In an interview with news.com.au ahead of the Season 3 launch, the Selling Sunset star hinted at a bombshell reveal at the reunions show.

Chrishell Stause on Love Triangle S3, her perfect match

“I have to say this is unprecedented to anything I’ve seen. This was insane,” Chrishell tells us.

“As hard as it was to deliver that news, I wanted (Payton) to know that. Because I feel like sometimes somebody might join the show and, in my opinion, Jordan joined for the wrong reasons.

“The whole point of the show is to be open to dating someone whose looks might not be exactly what you go for, but clearly that was not his intention because he had a lot to say about her looks and was just very degrading about it.

“It was very telling, what other reason would he have come on the show then if you were so closed off to that?

“It was very dramatic and no one saw any of that coming, so it was hard.”
