“I put my phone down and went for a walk. I gave up on the dream, I was like Kate was carrying on, they weren’t calling you.
“Then around 8:30 p.m. that night, my phone rang. I was expecting to hear a voice rejecting me but instead the voice said we found you a match, you’re getting married!! (a reminder to never give up).
‘Honestly, I was in shock! It wasn’t really until I went to bed that night that I understood and cried with joy.

“I was really hoping for love. The journey of a lifetime had just begun.
“I might do a few little flashbacks over the next two weeks, just to bring out some memories.”
Kate was paired with Matt, 40, on season 9 of the show, but the couple failed to get along and decided to call it quits before final vows.
“I do the OnlyFans to show people other sides of me and who I really am because it wasn’t shown on MAFS due to my poor editing,” Kate told Daily Mail Australia.
In August, the nutritionist revealed that she joined OnlyFans with her twin sister Bec.
The 39-year-old said she was thrilled “to express all the different sides of her” on the adult website after her depiction on MAFS did not reflect her true personality.
“After my MAFS experience, I found myself lacking in confidence and afraid to show the real me for fear of judgement,” she wrote on Instagram.
“The show portrays a character that I don’t think reflects who I really am as a person.
“That’s why I’m so excited to launch my OnlyFans. It will be an opportunity for me to express all the different sides of me, the never-before-seen version of me.
“It’s time to show you what I really am.”
