LISA & ANDY: ‘OUR
SURPRISE BABY JOY’
MAT’S BIG MOVE
House Rules isn’t over just yet,
but newlyweds Lisa and Andy are
already making plans for life beyond
the show. And it includes a baby!
“We definitely want a baby in the
future,” says Lisa. “Probably in about
three years. There’s a bit more I want
to try out first in terms of my career.”
“I’m clucky now, though,”
adds Andy.
“He is,” laughs Lisa. “But we
want to give the best life to ourbaby, so we have to sort out
our lives first.”
And when it comes to what’s
next for their careers, Lisa says she’d
love to stay in front of the camera.
“I absolutely loved the House
Rules experience and being on the
camera so I would love to work
in the industry and do something in
this field,” she says.
“So, I am keeping all options
open and will see what happens.”While Mat is incredibly happy
that the show gave his brother,
Tim, a newly renovated home
for his family, Mat reveals that
if they win the prize, it’s his
turn to move into a new house.
“It’s pretty evident I need
my own place,” Mat laughs.
“I mean, Tim’s got his place,
and it was nice doing up
everyone’s house but I’d love
to have my own. So first things
first I would go and buy a
house and then spend six
months renovating it.
“Or maybe I’ll reapply next
year for my place, who knows?”Of course, before that
happens, the brothers have to
overcome the huge grand final
challenge in front of them.
“The zones were massive,
and it was very testing
doing double the amount of
work you normally would,”
reveals Tim.
“In the grand final, you
have to produce your best
because if you leave something
on the table, you could end up
regretting it. I guess mentally it
is tough trying to find that little
bit of extra something we will
need to beat the other guys.”
