The REAL reason behind their bitter feud revealed: Bachelor In Paradise’s Alisha Aitken-Radburn admits she’s ‘close’ with Keira Maguire’s ex Jarrod Woodgate
Keira Maguire pulled no punches when she entered Bachelor in Paradise during Sunday night’s episode, instantly igniting a feud with her co-star, Alisha Aitken-Radburn.
And it appears there is no chance the pair will ever be friends.
Speaking to New Idea on Monday, Alisha, 27, revealed she has become close with Keira’s ex boyfriend, Jarrod Woodgate, 35, since the show finished filming.

‘So, I don’t think I’m on the top of her Christmas card list!’ she laughed off.
‘I can’t hold that against her. If someone was besties with my ex, I wouldn’t be the biggest fan either,’ Alisa continued.
Alisha went on to explain that since filming the Channel 10 reality show, she has only ever had one encounter with Keira – and she wanted nothing to do with her.

Alisha explained: ‘We bumped into each other at the Portsea Polo. But I got a pretty fast impression that she wasn’t happy with me.’
Keira has previously made no secret of her dislike for the former Labor Party staffer.
Last year, she controversially suggested that Alisha had copied her storyline during her appearance on Bachelor In Paradise season two.

‘The producers are making it out to be a back-and-forth story like mine and Jarrod (Woodgate) even to the point that they brought in Daniel (Maguire),’ she said, referring to Alisha’s rocky romance with Jules Bourne.
Keira, who appeared on the first season of Bachelor In Paradise, continued: ‘last year they brought in the same guy when Jarrod and I were fighting.’ She was referring to intruder Daniel, who appeared in both Keira and Alisha’s seasons.
Keira also claimed that Alisha had even contacted her over social media, telling her to stop publicly commenting on her relationship with Jules as it was ‘taking away from her experience’ on the show.

‘How can anyone take away from your experience?’ Keira clapped back on her radio podcast.
‘Why do you care what I think – just go away! Jules and Alisha will probably end up together – but how desperate can you get?’ she snapped.
