She’s quickly becoming one of Married At First Sight’s most memorable villains.
But it appears Olivia Frazer is struggling to cope with the public backlash since being labelled public enemy No. 1 in her feud with Domenica Calarco.
The teaching student, 28, has been confiding in fellow brides Tamara Djordjevic and Jessica Seracino in recent weeks, according to a close friend.

‘Liv has been chatting to Tamara and Jess almost every day since MAFS went to air just to stay sane. They are on the phone with each other 24/7,’ said the source.
The focus on Olivia’s ongoing feud with Domenica has been particularly hard.
‘Olivia has been struggling to watch back the show… it’s become The Dom Show,’ the insider revealed.
In a bid to cheer herself up, Olivia went on a girls’ trip to the Gold Coast last weekend with Tamara and her bridesmaid Laura.

It comes after a production source claimed Olivia was given a ‘bad edit’ because she threatened to walk out of the experiment on several occasions during filming.
Olivia reportedly told producers she was ready to walk just hours after clashing with Domenica at the couples’ retreat on November 2.
‘Olivia wanted Domenica off the show but producers downplayed the glassing incident [by] telling her they’d seen far worse,’ said the spy.

The insider claimed producers eventually persuaded her to stay because she and Jackson Lonie were the only couple who ‘actually looked like they’d stay together’.
Jackson previously defended his on-screen ‘wife’ and suggested the editing team on the Channel Nine show had it in for Olivia.
‘It’s kind of like they wanted to set this up from the start so poor Liv gets a reaming from everybody,’ he said last week.

Referencing the now-infamous glass-smashing incident from the couples’ retreat, Jackson claimed multiple brides saw Domenica wield the broken wine glass like a weapon – but only Olivia was shown on TV relaying this version of events.
‘Every girl I spoke to that night said the same thing, but once again that edit is an amazing thing,’ he said.
Married At First Sight continues Monday at 7:30pm on Channel Nine and 9Now
