After a long feud, it seems The Challenge‘s Brittany Hockley and Brooke Blurton have stopped giving each other cold shoulders.
The Challenge Australia stars Brittany Hockley and Brooke Blurton seem to have made up – or at least that’s what an unnamed contestant from the show told So Dramatic!
If you’ve been out of the loop, Hockley and Blurton iced each other out when Hockley outed Blurton as bisexual during Nick Cummin’s season of The Bachelor.
Later on, during an appearance on Abbie Chatfield’s podcast It’s A Lot, Blurton admitted that part of the reason why she revealed her sexuality to Cummin was because of pressure from the other women on the show, most prominently Hockley.
Blurton also revealed that when she’d confronted Hockley about her actions, the latter had gotten defensive. “If I want to tell him, I want to tell him. If I don’t, I don’t. It was a pathetic discussion. It was a conversation that I didn’t really wanna have.”
Another contestant on the show, however, has revealed that two stars have been somewhat ‘amicable’ with each other, even interacting on social media. “They were OK with each other on the show. Not close, but not hating each other. They were amicable and friendly.” the source said.
Hockley isn’t the only personality Blurton has feuded with. She was also engaged in a verbal war with Abbie Chatfield when the latter revealed her relationship with The Bachelorette contestant Konrad Bień-Stephen before the season finale aired – Blurton was The Bachelorette during the same.

Blurton went on to call out Chatfield in an Instagram story, claiming that the latter stole the spotlight from the first indigenous and bisexual Bachelorette in the history of the show.
“For that to be tainted ONCE again by 1. What I thought was a close friend. 2. Another white woman displaying what white privilege looks like. 3. A very clear display of narcissism,” Blurton wrote at the time.
“Hurts me. Literally pains me. I’ve reached out to this person to resolve this ‘conflict’ which in fact, classic naive me, adult me went to this person to communicate openly about the layers of complexity that this person’s actions show and take away from NOT only me but what it meant for a queer woman of colour.” she said.
