House Rules High Stakes: Tamara and Rhys' shock confession

The couple aren't happy! - by Zoe Burrell
  • 04 May 2020

After receiving the lowest scores during Laith and George’s build, Tamara and Rhys were forced to sleep in the tent during Tanya and Dave’s build last week. And, let’s just say that Tamara wasn’t too thrilled about it.

Watch: House Rules' Tamara fights for more space

“It was the worst week of my life,” Tamara tells New Idea. “You feel isolated and you just feel like a grubby person coming from the backyard. 

"It was rough, but it pushed us to do well and I think we had a good week because of it.”

While they hated not having a proper shower or a proper sleep all week, the couple reveal the hardest part was not the tent but knowing they got the lowest score the week before.

Tamara and Rhys didn't enjoy staying in the tent.

“I think that was the biggest struggle,” says Rhys. “I mean, the tent’s the tent, but it’s more what it represents.”

“It’s a real confidence knock,” adds Tamara. “You start doubting whether you can do a good job, so it’s a mental battle more than anything to fight for good scores
in the next reno.”

But, did the couple do enough to make it out of the tent?
