In an exclusive interview, we sat down with Tommy and Rach to delve into their emotions, experiences, and the remarkable bond that has developed through their journey on My Kitchen Rules.
Dealing with Elimination: Mixed Emotions and Gratefulness
When asked about their elimination, Tommy expressed their devastation, saying, “We have come so far in this competition and we have been practising like no tomorrow. We’ve been out of our comfort zones our entire time and it’s been such a challenging thing to endure.” Rach added that it was a relief in some ways, considering the difficulty of the competition. They both acknowledged that someone had to go home, and unfortunately, it was them.
A Deepening Friendship
Tommy and Rach emphasized how their friendship has evolved and strengthened throughout their My Kitchen Rules experience. Tommy highlighted the unique challenges they faced together, saying, “We’ve been beyond tired and we’ve been frustrated and we’ve been stressed and we’ve been pulled from pillar to post. And to go through that and come out on the other side as better friends than we were before, it’s actually such a testament to Rach and myself.” Rach credited their strong communication and unwavering support for each other as instrumental in their bond.
Moments with Contestants and Judges
Reflecting on their time on the show, Rach fondly recalled the moment when judge Manu praised their duck main course as “MKR on a plate” and an “MKR staple”. She expressed pride in receiving such praise, especially considering the high level of competition they were up against.
Handling the Pressure: Self-Care and Support
The pressure of competing on a nationally televised cooking competition is undeniably intense. Tommy and Rach emphasized the importance of taking care of their well-being to stay focused and motivated. Rach mentioned they prioritized activities like walking, eating healthy, checking in with families, and practicing mindfulness. They even treated themselves to massages as a way to recharge and be the best version of themselves during the competition.
Looking Ahead to New Endeavors
While unsure of their future plans, Tommy and Rach expressed openness to new opportunities. For now, they plan to continue their love for cooking by hosting dinners, spending time with family and friends, and organizing Christmas cook-ups. They are motivated to continue sharing their passion for food and are excited to invite other teams from the show to their gatherings.
In Conclusion
Tommy and Rach’s journey on My Kitchen Rules may have come to an end, but their friendship and resilience have left an indelible mark. Through the ups and downs of the competition, they have grown closer, faced challenges head-on, and emerged more determined than ever.
