My Kitchen Rules couple defends judge Jane despite criticism of her harsh style
Tiffany and Giancarlo scored 86 at My Kitchen Rules and defended judge Jane, saying her tone is blunt but she works hard.
Tiffany and Giancarlo topped the leaderboard with their Italian restaurant Ciao Bella Ciao, scoring 86. When asked about judge Jane's harsh feedback, they were honest.
Tiffany said Jane is passionate and well-travelled, but her delivery doesn't consider how people feel. Giancarlo said her intensity isn't fair to other teams, but he doesn't think she deserves the attack she's faced.
Both said Jane takes her job seriously and cares deeply. At dinner, Jane made sharp remarks about plates from Alisha and Deanne's restaurant, which reignited the debate about her style.
