On one side there are the self-confessed “horrible stuck up bitches”, on the other there are the “psychos” who aren’t afraid to hold back and, just like that, Season Nine of My Kitchen Rules has begun.
It was the first episode of the season last night and brothers Josh and Nick kicked off the competition with an impressive Italian spread. You wouldn’t know it, however, because most of the attention was on two pairs of female partners.
Jess and Emma are sisters from New South Wales who say on the show people often perceive them to be “horrible stuck-up bitches”.
Friends Roula and Rachael from Victoria are “fiery” and frequently referred to as “psychos” in the kitchen.
Cue: Drama and a collective eye roll from the Australian people. Hasn’t this storyline run its course too many times before?
Apparently, it’s impossible for women to compete for anything without becoming emotional and having a cat fight and threatening to throw each other off their chairs. No, really.
LISTEN: Your first look at the new Married at First Sight. Post continues after audio.
Rachael referred to her competitors as ‘The Plastics’ and said they should be on Real Housewives instead of a cooking show.
Emma said she was better than Rachael in real estate.
Roula refused to eat the fried dumplings because she ‘likes to look good’, attracting backlash from Jess who said: “I’d pick you up out of the chair and throw you out’.

Ah the gullibility of the average viewer
Perhaps we should be holding these women more accountable for their behaviour instead of blaming the MKR producers. We wouldn't be seeing this sort of thing, if people didn't act like this.I'm embarrassed for them but I'm more embarassed for their families.
I'd be mortified if my sister or mum acted like this. Actually, I'd be embarassed if ANY of my family acted like this in public, let alone on TV.
