If MAFS star Olivia Frazer hadn’t already cemented her position as Australia’s biggest reality villain of all time, she may well have just sealed the deal by comparing herself to Russian president Vladimir Putin.
The 27-year-old made the shocking comparison in an interview on HIT Network‘s Hughesy, Ed and Erin this morning.
During the chat, Frazer referenced a petition that’s been floating around the internet that’s calling for “the e-safety commissioner” to “immediately take action against Olivia Frazer” for circulating a racy picture of co-star Domenica Calarco.
“More people have signed a petition to have me arrested… than to end the war in Ukraine,” Frazer told the hosts of the circulating petition. “In Australia, I feel like I’m more hated than Vladimir Putin.”
Throughout season nine of the hit show Married At First Sight, Frazer has repeatedly found herself in the middle of explosive situations. She was first unofficially awarded the villain title after ridiculing Calarco over her “annoying” voice and then embellishing a story about the confrontation between the two TV wives.
Shortly after that event, Frazer admitted to finding a risque picture of Calarco that was used to promote her OnlyFans account, and sharing it with other participants in the MAFS experiment.
The latter incident is what sparked the aforementioned petition. The change.org petition, which was launched on March 16th has received over 123,000 signatures to date.

During the same interview, Frazer was asked whether the public backlash – that’s come from her appearance on the reality show – has affected her livelihood.
“Yeah, look. I’ve already lost my job as a direct result of this show,” Frazer admitted, but wouldn’t go into any further detail.
Despite the unsavoury reaction Frazer’s received from viewers, her on-screen husband decided to renew his vowels with his on-screen wife during last night’s ‘Final Commitment Ceremony’.
“I’m so grateful that I met you. You are amazing to me. I want to make you feel special every day, just like you deserve,” he told Frazer during the emotional exchange.
