Tully Smyth clears air with former Big Brother boyfriend Anthony Drew

Anthony Drew made headlines when he started a romance with co-star Tully Smyth during their stint on Big Brother in 2013, while she was in a long-term relationship with girlfriend Tahlia Farrant. 

The pair continued to date following the show, but the romance was short-lived, with the couple splitting in January 2014. 

But on Tuesday, Anthony and Tully reunited on her podcast Too Much Tully to FINALLY reveal what really went down between the pair following their exit from the show.    

Tully explained that their ‘sudden fame’ and the additional ‘problems’ of her break up with Thalia affected their relationship.

‘I was like how can you possibly start something new when you’re trying to deal with the old, that was a constant problem,’ she said.

But at the end of the day, she admits that Anthony wasn’t as invested in the relationship as she was, saying: ‘I moved to Melbourne and I was all in, and he wasn’t.’  

‘I was a bit of a prick,’ Anthony added.   

Last year, Tully broke down in tears while discussing her infamous affair scandal with Anthony on Big Brother.  

Speaking on the Shameless podcast, Tully confessed that she still regrets what happened and the ‘hurt’ she caused other people.

Tully also admitted she felt pressure to keep her and Anthony’s relationship going after the show ended due to the backlash she faced.

‘I felt that, I’m not sure if [Anthony] felt that,’ she said on the podcast.

‘There were six weeks when I was out there alone. He never had to deal with the repercussions of what happened. He was a rock star that turned a lesbian and I was a cheating sl**ty homewrecker.

‘I had to deal with a lot of the bulls**t before he even got out of the house.’
