The blocks, Jessie and Paige have opened up about one of the horrific consequences of being a reality TV villain.

Speaking to Yahoo Lifestyle about the negative reaction they've received from fans of the series, Page said.

I've had a lot of death threats.

I've had a lot of violent threats.

I've had a lot of people just say nasty things that I could never even conceptualise.

She added.

I started receiving hate pretty much Episode one, and then I think everyone got really comfortable with the idea of harassing me online, so that just really ramped up.

It's just a TV show.

I don't think it's appropriate whatsoever.

The couple said Channel nine has been paying for their counselling and made various mental health services available to them.
