They’re two of the male stars of opposing reality TV franchises Married At First Sight and The Bachelorette.
And a feud broke out between Dean Wells and Lee Elliott on Friday, when MAFS ‘villain’ Wells took to the comments section of his reality TV rival’s Instagram post with a very pointed quip.
After Elliott posted a throwback pic of his time on the Channel 10 reality TV series, Wells wrote, ‘Bro, let it go. Stop milking it’.

Elliott returned fire with humour, paraphrasing the comedy film Meet The Parents by writing ‘I have nipples @deanwells can you milk me?’
Sharing the exchange to his Instagram Stories, Lee added the comment, ‘Completely flattered that of all the things you could be doing at 3am you chose to peruse my profile. #blessed’.
The post in question was a throwback inspired by Elliot’s five year Bachelorette anniversary.

Georgia also posted on her socials last week to mark their five-year milestone.
Sharing a gif of the moment she met her suitors on the Channel 10 show, Georgia wrote: ‘Five years since this night. FIVE YEARS!!!?!?! And I still absolutely cannot believe they picked me.’
‘I couldn’t say more sincerely that I absolutely loved it! I had the time of my life, it was hands-down the best experience of my life and I met the love of my life. How bloody lucky am I?!’

She also went on to cheekily add: ‘There was some stiff competition and I don’t let him forget that.’
Despite the competition, Georgia was besotted with the tradesman from the minute she laid eyes on him.
The couple, who met on the 2016 season of The Bachelorette, got engaged in 2019.
Georgia and Lee tied the knot in an elegant ceremony in March after their initial plans for a 2021 wedding in Italy were cancelled.
The nuptials took place at the picturesque Frogmore Creek Winery in Tasmania.
