Gold Coast bikies are often known for their crimes but there is usually a lot more going on behind the scenes in their personal lives. These are the women behind the bikies.

GOLD Coast bikies are often known for their crimes but there is usually more going on behind the scenes in their personal lives.

These are the women behind the bikies.

Allaina Vader, John Fahey & Ben ‘Notorious’ Geppert

Vader, whose real name is Allaina Dianna Jones, is no stranger to dating bikies.

She was once the lover of Bandidos bikie Fahey and stood by her man during his court appearance for a brawl in a Burleigh Heads gym. Fahey pleaded guilty to taking part in the fight in 2014 and was sentenced to 60 days jail that he had served in custody.

In 2017 Vader moved on to her next bikie boyfriend, dating former Finks and Hells Angels member Geppert.

The pair shared many photos together on Instagram and hit the headlines when the two had a falling out with Vader’s cousin Rikki Louise Sutton and her boyfriend Brett ‘Kaos’ Pechey, a former Bandidos boss.

More on that later.

Vader and Geppert broke up in late 2019 and it appears she has moved on to a new man after announcing to her Instagram followers in August this year the birth of her second child with the boy’s father, Dallas Donnelly.

The pair gained public attention when a fight between the couple against Sutton’s cousin Allaina Vader and her boyfriend Ben Geppert splashed across their Instagram accounts.

Pechey had past ties with the Bandidos and Geppert was an ex-Hells Angel and Finks member when they started feuding in 2018.

Geppert made claims that Pechey was a ‘dog’, or a police informant, which sparked the rivalry between the former bikies and their partners.

Things escalated when Sutton was targeted by Geppert and Vader, who photoshopped an image of her with a pig’s snout on Instagram.

In July 2018 Pechey announced he and Sutton had split in a heartfelt post that read: “Rikki was the best GF [sic] I have ever had and I f****d that up plenty of times.”

It’s believed Sutton and Vader have made up.

Gabrielle Garner & Brodie Singh

Garner is the wife of alleged Lone Wolf bikie gang national president Brodie Singh.

Her husband is one of two men charged with murdering former bikie Shane Ross and his friend Cameron Martin at Tallebudgera last October.

Garner has been by her husband’s side during his ongoing trail and has recently found herself in trouble.

She allegedly lied during her husband’s hearing into the murders of the former Comanchero bikie and his Monstr Clothing business partner.

Garner was arrested in May this year and charged with two counts of perjury.

Her case is ongoing.

Chireez Beytell & Liam Scorcese

The ex-girlfriend of Gold Coast Comanchero associate Scorcese hit the headlines when her former lover was shot outside her Brisbane home.

Scorcese was shot dead outside his former partner’s house in February 2018. Beytell’s mother Madelene Erasmus told how he “became a different person” after he was locked out of their house in a coronial inquest into his death in September this year.

She said the incident occurred after a loud confrontation between the former lovers, leading to the police turning up.

Beytell’s mother called police after Scorcese had been bashing on the door, yelling to be let in.

The court heard when police arrived Scorcese had a knife and approached the officers before being shot twice.

Trudi McPhee & Shane Bowden

After the death of Bowden in October this year, McPhee told the Gold Coast Bulletin she and Bowden had been together for more than three decades.

The mother of Shane Bowden's teenage son, Trudi McPhee.

Bowden had a long history with bikies, being a member of the Finks and the Mongols.

He was often in trouble with the law, most notoriously when he shot Hells Angel member Christopher Hudson during the Ballroom Blitz – considered one of Australia’s worst bikie brawls.

McPhee claimed the pair were “sorting a few things out” when he moved to Queensland from Victoria.

McPhee paid tribute to Bowden, posting on Facebook after his death that letters and voicemails she had kept from him “will be with me forever.”

“He will always be my world. We had big plans together again, he was just waiting on my answer to be honest. I don’t know how I am going to get through all of this.”
