Laura Byrne slams Georgia Love for ‘abusive tweet’

She doesn't hold back!
  • 19 Sep 2019

Laura Byrne has finally unleashed her fury on Georgia Love, the woman who broke the new mum's now-fiance Matty J's heart on the Bachelorette Australia. 

Speaking on her Life Uncut podcast on Wednesday, Laura laid into Georgia for posting an abusive tweet about this year's Bachelor, Matt Agnew. 

WATCH: Laura Byrne slams Georgia Love for ‘abusive tweet’ 

Laura's beef with Georgia came to a head after the Melbourne-based presenter posted a controversial tweet immediately after Bachie Matt eliminated fan favourite Elly Miles last week. 

“F*** YOU MATT. Don’t @ me,” Georgia tweeted.

The tweet was too much for Laura to handle, who called out her fellow Bachelor alum for setting a bad example to fans on her podcast, which she co-hosts with Brittany Hockley.

"The fact that Georgia Love had said this really grinds my gears," she said.

"My issue with it didn't so much come from, [that Georgia is] offering criticism. It's totally OK to not be an Abbie [Chatfield] fan and to be upset that your favourite character is going home. However, language is really, really important.

"She didn't say, 'Hey, this isn't cool'. She chose to use obscenities and basically verbally abused Matt for his choices.

"It also then validates anybody else who wants to sling abuse at [Matt Agnew], which is just not the example that [previous reality stars] should be setting when we have been in that position before."

We both forgot but apparently yesterday was two years to the day that our finale @thebachelorau episode played out across the country. I'm really glad we have taken things slowly, I can't wait to settle down and have kids with you @matthewdavidjohnson

Speaking about the backlash Georgia received when she sent home fan favourite, firefighter Cameron Cranley on The Bachelorette in 2016, Laura said she was being a hypocrite. 

"As much as I do question Matt's decisions in keeping Abbie on the show, I still think it's a bit of a situation where it's 'pot calling kettle'.

"I just think as a journalist and someone who really understands the power of language, I expected more than that [from Georgia]," Laura said.

In sickness and in health ❤️ At the beginning of our relationship, I found myself getting sick All. The. Time. I would get totally run down and catch every bug and virus within a 50km radius. I'd pump myself with vitamin C, try sleeping more, try exercising more but nothing helped. Eventually I took myself to the doctor and found out I'm iron deficient and had let my levels drop reeeally low. I got treated and was a new woman within 48 hours! Since then, I've made sure I regularly check and maintain my levels and have barely been sick since! This Women's Health Week I'm encouraging every woman to put their health first. Don't ignore the signs, don't suffer through sickness, don't be afraid to go to your doctor and find out if something is wrong. You'll be all the better for it 💪🏻🏃🏼‍♀️🤸🏻‍♀️ @JeanHailes #WomensHealthWeek #IronDeficiency #ironwoman #fe-male #pumpingiron #ohtheirony

It's long been rumoured that Bachelor alum Laura and Georgia (who recently got engaged to Lee Elliot whom she met on the Bachelorette) are far from friends, but this is the first time either of them have spoken out. 

Georgia's tweet also garnered backlash on the social media platform, which she responded to in another tweet, saying her comments were "tongue in cheek" and that she understands sending fan faves home, as she did that too.
