MAFS star Lyndall has finally addressed a social media outburst from Tayla in which she called her “the biggest bully”.
To catch you up to speed, weeks before Tayla’s part in MAFS started airing, the 27-year-old published a savage, now-deleted, post about Lyndall, who was already on viewers’ screens.
She posted a Daily Mail Australia article that detailed Lyndall’s post-show fling with fellow groom Josh, and wrote: “I feel it’s important to get this out before my accounts get taken.”
The post continued: “Lyndall, you’re the biggest bully I’ve ever met. This [Daily Mail] article is surface level and the amount of hurt you have caused many people is damaging and dangerous.
“I’m hoping people get to tell their truth and the real story is heard sooner rather than later,” Tayla concluded.
While MAFS fans were shocked by the post, a lot of them put two and two together and alluded that Tayla was angry at Lyndall for hooking up with Josh after the show. However, Tayla has finally spoken about the post and said that she was “blindsided” and found it “very confusing”.

“I did go into [MAFS] wanting to just come out being proud of my actions and proud of who I was, and I absolutely feel like I can say that,” she told Yahoo Lifestyle Australia.
She continued: “I’ve never been called a bully before, I don’t think there are many people that share that sentiment, but it was an awful thing to see. I genuinely had no idea that that was coming. I couldn’t even give you an example of when I can remember that I have even said anything hurtful or nasty, especially in Tayla’s direction.”
Lyndall hinted that viewers may Tayla may be involved in some drama in upcoming episodes, telling the publication her actions will “ultimately speak for themselves”.
“It was upsetting to see, but I just don’t understand where she got that from,” she continued. “It is what it is and she said it now, but I think it’ll all become pretty clear by the end of the show.”
