MAFS couple 'lied' to production about sleeping arrangements during wife swap week

'wife swap' week is always controversial. But this year's couples took it a step further, with a 'bed swap' scandal rocking the experiment.

During the week, which is now being aired in the UK, couples are paired up with a different bride or groom to spend a few days with, and they move in together too. It can really decipher between the strong and the weaker partnerships, as everyone gets a grilling about their from their new partner, as they share their outsider perspective.

During the challenge, which has already been shown to audiences, Rhi Disljenkovic, who was married to Jeff Gobbels, was paired up with Eliot Donovan, who was married to Veronica Cloherty. While Rhi and Jeff were seen as one of the strongest couples, it's emerged Rhi and Eliot lied to producers about their sleeping routine during the wife swap.

It turns out the pair got pretty close while filming together, and according to an insider, who told , Rhi and Eliot shared a bed during the week, and producers only found out as Rhi's husband Jeff had allegedly ratted them out. Jeff was paired up with Jacqui, who he agreed to sleep separately from.

But after complaining about a 'bad back' Jeff "suggested they share the bed instead." He then said it was justified as his wife had done the same. Eliot also hadn't told Veronica he'd shared a bed with Rhi, and Veronica was shocked when she found out.

The source claimed: "I'm unsure how it will all play out on TV, but Eliot flat-out lied to Veronica [about sharing a bed with Rhi]. He assured her he had slept alone. She has no idea what actually happened."

The insider further detailed that Veronica was "super upset" when she attempted to bring up the bedroom scandal at the next dinner party, where she turned to Rhi in front of everyone and said: "I don't appreciate my husband lying to me about sharing a bed with another woman."

The source added: "She's super upset, but the entire room laughs it off and shuts her down. The only people they lied to really was production. The only reason Eliot lied was because he didn't want to throw Rhi under the bus," and it goes on to become one of the "most intense" confrontations of the season.
