Tensions boil over on My Kitchen Rules as one contestant STORMS OFF set during filming

Simmering tensions boiled over on Monday’s episode of My Kitchen Rules, with one popular team storming off set.

Bad blood had been building on the Channel Seven show between contestants Lawrence, who is partnered with fiancée Hannah, and Janey, who is teamed up with daughter and fellow ‘kitchen queen’ Maddie.

Wanting to diffuse the situation, Instant Restaurant hosts Mike and Pete invited the feuding pair to ‘extend an olive branch’ to each other, so the table could enjoy the three-course meal in peace.

‘The tactic behind the olive branch tonight is that they accept the peace,’ Mike explained. ‘Everyone’s going to have a great time. 

‘Therefore, when it comes to scoring, everyone’s going to be happy.’

Despite the hosts best efforts, the mood at the table quickly declined when Janey and Maddie discovered what was said about their Instant Restaurant the previous week.

‘I said this is arrogance on a dish,’ Lawrence said, doubling down on his comments last week when confronted.

‘I thought it tasted like arrogance.’

Speaking to cameras, a clearly taken aback Janey said that she felt ‘insulted’ by Lawrence’s comments.

‘You had the audacity to hand me an olive branch ant the beginning of the night, which was completely fake,’ Janey said of Lawrence.

‘Inside, I was fuming.’

After declaring that she ‘couldn’t deal’ with Lawrence, Janey got up from the table and stormed out, closely followed by Maddie.

‘You gave us an olive branch at the beginning of the night, please just take it back. You may as well shove it up your a**e!’ Janey added after leaving the table.

Speaking to her daughter outside, Janey added: ‘I’ve never met anybody like that in my life.

‘I can’t even look at the guy. I think we need to leave now.’

Maddie proved to be the voice of reason telling her mum: ‘You’ve just got to try and not let him get to you.’

‘This is something we’ve always wanted to do,’ she added. ‘Try not to let other noise get in the way of what’s important, which is serving good food.’

Maddie’s wise words did the trick with Janey returning to the table after declaring: ‘Right, I need to go and have some champagne.’ 

Hannah and Lawrence returned to the kitchen for their second Instant Restaurant on Wednesday.

With elimination looming, the pair have to outscore Janey and Maddie to stay in the competition.
