‘I talk a lot on this podcast about how absolutely f**king crazy I was in past relationships,’ she began.
‘I was the girl who went through the guy’s phone, I was the girl who set up fake profiles to stalk my boyfriends. Like, I was the next stage of crazy.
‘But that was because I dated guys who made me that way. I dated guys who made me insecure.’

She said she came to believe there was something wrong with her, until she started dating Matty, who she met during the 2017 season of The Bachelor.
‘At the time, I genuinely thought, “Oh my God, maybe I am this person! Maybe I’m mentally unstable,”‘ she continued.
‘Now that I’m in a relationship where I’m treated like a goddamn princess, I never do that, and I know that it was all situational.’

‘My Bachelor was a bogan! He was called “The Honey Badger”, for God’s sake. Bogan as it gets,’ the 32-year-old said.
She added sarcastically: ‘Yeah, he sounds hot, hey?’
But Brittany confessed she’s happy things didn’t worked out with Nick, describing her life now as ‘amazing’, despite initially being left heartbroken by him.
