The ambitious blonde started the new role in August, just weeks before being booted off The Bachelor by Nick ‘Honey Badger’ Cummins.
She became a hot topic during her time on the series due to her involvement in the ‘mean girls’ clique with villains Cat Henesey and Romy Pouiler.
After receiving backlash from viewers, the trio told the Daily Telegraph that a lot of their behaviour was the result of ‘editing’ and orders from producers.

‘You are told to do things, and if you don’t, you might go home,’ Cat said.
Alisha added: ‘I get that people are angry but telling you to jump off a cliff or to kill yourself, no one deserves that.
‘At the end of the day, it is reality TV. People love drama and while shows like Married At First Sight still rate, networks are going to continue to produce it and viewers will watch.’
