MAFS star Cyrell has opened up about what her co-star Grant Crapp promised her before The Challenge began, and how he fell through on his promises.
On the first episode of The Challenge, contestants were told to drop tokens on other competitors mats. Whoever’s mat was filled first was considered the loser of The Challenge. The general consensus was that all the teams should pick one pair, and Grant was the first one to drop a token on Cyrell’s mat. The other competitors followed suit and Cyrell was declared the loser.
It’s safe to say that Cyrell was very annoyed that Grant decided to target her, and now she’s opened up about why.
“So basically, we hadn’t even left to fly to Argentina, we were still in Sydney Airport,” she recalls. “Everyone was sitting in the other group, I was on my own, and he wandered over and found me. I was like, ‘Oh let me call Eden to tell him you’re here with me Grant!'” She told Yahoo Lifestyle Australia.
“I never asked him to do this, no one forced him to do this and this is why it annoyed me, but he was like, ‘Oh bro, don’t worry, I’ve got your missus’ back, I’m gonna defend her, I’m gonna watch out for her’.
“As soon as he left, Eden was like to me, ‘I know what he said, but do not trust him. I was on Love Island with that guy and I can tell you right now, he will dog you’. But I actually didn’t believe my partner, I listened to the gronk and fell for it!”
And, Grant wasn’t the only co-star that Cyrell clashed with during her time on the show. The former MAFS participant told the publication that her partner in week two blamed her for deciding to put up Grant and Kiki for elimination.

“They didn’t show it, but Conor dogged me hard,” she shares. “He tried to pin everything on me with putting Grant and Kiki [Morris] up for nomination [the previous night] when I had actually said, ‘If you can’t decide, flip a coin,'” she said.
“I was saying, ‘You’re the biggest cow, dog, cat, bulls**t artist’, everything. I don’t know why they didn’t air it, but I guess I’d already argued that many people that [the producers] just wanted me to go in peace.
“He got under a lot of skin and from what I can say, he pisses a lot of people off so he’s one to look out for,” she continues. “But I think he enjoyed it. I think he didn’t want to be remembered for making scrambled eggs anymore, and he just wanted to be now known as ‘Connor the villain’.”
