MAFS: Martha Kalifatidis walks into a door while trying to hide from the paps

Martha Kalifatidis’ ongoing feud with the Sydney paparazzi took a bizarre turn on Tuesday when she had yet another diva moment.

The Married At First Sight star, 32, clearly wasn’t in the mood to be photographed as she returned to her apartment in Bondi after a shopping spree.

She threw a sweater over her head after noticing the paps, but the downside of this was she couldn’t see where she was going. 

Not again! Martha Kalifatidis’ ongoing feud with the Sydney paparazzi took a bizarre turn on Tuesday when she had yet another diva moment

Her lack of visibility meant she bumped into her front door and had to be guided inside by her boyfriend, Michael Brunelli.

Even as she struggled to step into the building, Martha refused to pull the jumper from her head, meaning Michael had to practically carry her inside.

Despite the odd circumstances, the brunette still managed to look stylish in a pair of baggy trackpants, designer sneakers and a black singlet.

She styled her bright orange hair in a short bob and carried several shopping bags, including two pink bags from Double Bay boutique Girls with Gems.

Once safely inside her apartment, Martha shared a selfie to Instagram showing off her oversized Yeezy fleece, which she wore on her body instead of her head.

The farcical moment comes after the reality star-turned-influencer said ‘getting papped’ was her least favourite thing about being famous.

She told Shameless in February she pays ‘astronomical’ rent to live in North Bondi, but can’t enjoy it because of the photographers staking out the suburb.

‘Do you want to know how many times I’ve actually swam in the beach? Because there are paps there, a very limited amount of times,’ she told the podcast.

The former makeup artist even claimed she can’t ‘just go out to the store’ anymore because Bondi is such a paparazzi hotspot.

When she visits restaurants, Martha also tries to sit like she’s ‘posing’ because sitting in a casual manner isn’t conducive to flattering paparazzi photos.

‘I live in Bondi so I’m always in a T-shirt and no shoes, that’s how I am most of my day, just chilling. You can’t do that. You always have to be almost sitting in a way like you’re posing,’ she said.

Martha also tries to avoid smoking in public – not because it’s bad for her health, but because she doesn’t want to be ‘crucified’ if she’s photographed.

She went on to complain about a recent paparazzi set which she said made her look like a ‘swamp monster’. In reality, she looked perfectly fine.

The MAFS bride then made the extraordinary claim she’s ‘so hyper-vigilant I can hear the camera’s shutter’ from a distance, which is almost impossible.

Martha’s woe-is-me attitude is in stark contrast to genuine A-list celebrities in Australia, many of whom have a convivial relationship with the paps.

Hugh Jackman, who owns a house in Bondi, said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2018 that he cuts an informal deal with local snappers whenever he’s in Sydney.

‘I have a thing with the paparazzi, it’s weird,’ the Wolverine star, 52, said.

‘Down in Australia they’ll come to me – and they all know me at this point – and I’ll say to them, “Okay, what do you need, guys?”

‘And one of the main guys there, Shane, says, “Well we need you at Bondi [Beach], shirt off,” and I said, “Alright, tomorrow morning, eight o’clock.”‘

He added: ‘So they all turn up, it’s embarrassing, there’s like 30 of them, and then they leave me alone.

‘I figured, that’s a deal, I’ll take it… It’s very civilised down there in that way, or maybe it’s because they all want two weeks off!’
