Let’s face it, what would reality TV be without a villain? Just like a film needs Joker or Bane to keep the plot interesting, needs someone like ‘King’ George Mladenov, needs people like Olivia Frazer, and needs a contestant like Paige Beechey. We’re only two episodes into this year’s season of the renovation reality show and fans have already decided that Paige is 's new ‘villain’, taking the crown from 2023 contestants Leah Milton and Kristy Beames. The 27-year-old left viewers outraged during Tuesday night’s episode when she ranted at the cameras about the “rude” behaviour of people on set after she demanded to change the layout of her house.
Paige was intent on moving House 1’s master bedroom to the second floor, which was originally allotted to have two guest bedrooms. Her objective was to increase the size of the master bedroom while also moving it away from the other bedrooms on the opposite side of the house. However, the show’s resident architect Julian Brenchley, who drew up the plans himself, wasn’t impressed with the change and tried to explain the original layout to her.
“In a house of this size, you try and keep the family together, in the ‘private’ space,” he said, adding that potential buyers would likely prefer to sleep on the same side of the house as their children. “Good luck with it – I think you’re probably not on the right track.” Following her consult with Julian, Paige certainly wasn’t afraid to hold back he.
