House Rules scandal erupts: "They cheated!”

Rules Mikaela and Eliza accuse Shayn and Carly of strategic scoring - by Matthew Denby
  • 11 Jun 2019

House Rules evictees Mikaela and Eliza are furious about some of the scoring on the show, accusing Shayn and Carly of dirty tactics.

With tensions still running high, the evicted duo are calling out their competitors for alleged strategic scoring. It’s against the rules to not credit the best work.

'Everyone realised they weren't going to give credit where credit is due,' Eliza, 21, told TV Week. 'I just feel it's a bit immature and they've kind of shot themselves in the foot.' 

Mikaela suggests that Pete and Courtney were unfairly voted down by the controversial duo.

'It was a personal attack on Pete and Courtney and that's why everyone was so upset. It came out of the blue and didn't make sense,' Mikaela alleges.

Shayn and Carly are now sitting in second place, with 178 points. 

Despite their feelings, the sisters tell New Idea they feel nothing but grateful for their time on the show.

“Eliza and I put 110 per cent into everything we did, so it was difficult to walk away disappointed when you’ve given it your all,” Mikaela says. “Getting on the show and having the interior house renovated was a win in itself.”

“It has been a whirlwind. We learnt so much from the show and we’re so grateful,” Eliza adds. “Being back in the house is so surreal.”
