"Only in the past month have I started to get back to my grounded self. It's only going to get better," she admitted. “Now I’m at the same size I was when I started filming. I’m trying to get a bit leaner, so I go to F45 three times a week.”
For Ines, who came across in a terribly bad light on MAFS, she admits herself that she was mortified about how she was portrayed. Talking to WHO, she explained how much it effected her mental health.
“When I watched the edit, I was honestly mentally traumatised from what I saw,” she revealed. “I couldn’t believe it. It was literally sickening. None of my scenes were the truth [about] anything that actually happened.”
“I was prescribed Valium after the main filming and was in therapy. I was struggling with the whole Sam thing and how foul I was treated during filming,” she says. “My producer worked me until I didn’t know who I was anymore, [and] I almost got assaulted on set on multiple occasions.”
