The insider added that the blonde brit and hunky Aussie— who both rose to fame after starring in two reality shows that are extremely controversial—are experts at giving the people what they want and know exactly how to remain relevant and in the public eye.
“Her whole career is based on hooking up on TV, she knows exactly how to win ratings,” the source added. “Ryan was also on Married at First Sight, so it’s obviously something he was open to.”
