The 2024 season of FBoy Island Australia has come to an end, and we’ve heard updates from each of the final couples on the show. Easily one of the more interesting updates came from Krystal Thomas and Paddy Colliar, who split shortly after filming for FBoy Island wrapped.
Now, we’ve received another juicy insight into the couple’s journey off the back of Krystal’s chat with Abbie Chatfield on the It’s A Lot Podcast.
Here’s what we’ve learned and how Krystal is feeling about her FBoy Island experience now.
Why did Krystal choose Paddy on FBoy Island?
Speaking with Abbie on the podcast, Krystal revealed that she really didn’t know which of her final two men, Paddy and Doug, she was going to pick in the end.
“In that moment [during the finale], I felt like the whole world was spinning. I could see my life in two different ways, because they’re so different,” Krystal shared.
“…when it came out, I was just like, ‘Paddy’. And then, yeah, I even then said it, and I was like, ‘Oh no, but Doug?'”
She shared that, at the time, she believed she would have “a really nice life with Doug” but worried that in the long run, they may not have been able to give each other what they needed.
Krystal reveals she wishes she had chosen Doug
After reflecting on the series after the fact, Krystal shared that she cried after watching every episode.
“I had a cry after every episode. I’d cry during the episode, I’d cry after. I was like, moping around,” she said.
When Abbie asked why, Krystal responded, “Because I felt like I’d made the wrong decision.”
“I was watching it all play out, and I was like, ‘Oh my god,’ and the way Doug would look at me, I never had anyone look at me that way before. And it was a genuine love,” she explained.
Krystal then went on to share that after filming was over, she actually called Doug and tried to win him back.
“I was just like, ‘I’ve made the wrong decision. Like, I can’t believe this’. I was like, ‘I regret my decision’. I was crying.”
Then, Krystal shared that Doug who replied, “‘How could you do this to me?’ He’s like, ‘We left’ and he was like, ‘I was so heartbroken, Krystal’.”
“I was trying to get him back, and that is the realest truth, is that I was trying to get that man back because I regret my decision,” she said.
What happened with Krystal and Paddy in the end?
As we all know, Krystal and Paddy went their separate ways shortly after the show wrapped.
As Krystal shared with Abbie, she called things with him about six to eight weeks after the show ended. The reason for this, she explained, came down to different styles of communication and wanting different things from their relationship.
