Big Brother Australia 2022 returnee Anthony “Drew” Drew reportedly had a secret girlfriend on the down-low while filming the current season.

Move over Bryce Ruthven, there’s another reality TV scoundrel on the scene!

In his second BBAU go-around, Drew faced off against ex-girlfriend Tully Smyth, hooked up with newbie Sam Manovski and has since debuted his relationship with his latest flame, Bianca.

However, as reported in episode 199 of the So Dramatic! podcast, old mate Drew had a (un)lucky lady waiting for him back home — the WHOLE time!

According to one source, the 34-year-old had been dating a woman named Kristen for TWO YEARS before filming began.

“He was still with her when he went into the Big Brother house,” they said. “She was really supportive, and they FaceTimed every day when he was in hotel quarantine.”

Drew has seemingly pulled a Tully and macked on with a housemate despite having a bae on the outside.

After his elimination, the insider said Drew contacted secret girlfriend Kristen and “confessed he had hooked up with a girl in the house a few times”.

We’d say it was more than a few times, but we digress…

Apparently Drew “blamed producers” for his fling with Sam and said they’d “manipulated him to do it”.

“Basically he downplayed the whole thing,” the source said. “He apologised and said it meant nothing and that he hadn’t spoken to Sam again.” However, this wasn’t exactly true…

Big Brother‘s Drew’s “Secret” Girlfriend Discovered He’d Been Lying to Her About Sam

Chatting to So Dramatic!‘s host Megan Pustetto, the insider said it wasn’t long after Drew declared his commitment to Kristen that she discovered he had still been seeing Sam.

“The night he left the show, he booked a room at the W hotel and Sam cam and met him and stayed with him,” they dished. “He was secretly meeting up with Sam behind her back in the real world, and essentially cheating on Sam with his girlfriend too.”

And as if this wasn’t enough to land Drew on the sh*t list for lyf, the TV heartthrob reportedly began seeing his current partner Bianca while dating Kristen, too!

“[Kristen] only found out he was with her when she saw the kissing video of them that [So Dramatic!] posted,” the source confessed. Yikes!

Did someone say “super-spreader”?

Sources Claim Big Brother‘s Drew Is a “Serial Cheater”

While some may be shocked to learn of Drew’s naughty boy behaviour, others are not in the least bit surprised.

One source says Big Brother‘s golden boy continually “lies, cheats and strings women along”.

“He’s charming and nice on the outside and good to his boys, but he’s a classic narcissist to women,” they said. “He thrives off the attention and the ego boost [and] is incapable of being alone.” 

The insider dubbed Drew a “serial cheater”, having screwed around behind the back of his ex-girlfrined, Ruby, who he dated for five years following his first BBAU stint.

They continued: “He was dating another girl whilst also dating Leah Costa from The Bachelor, and then cheated on them both with someone else.”

Speaking to Drew and Tully’s “toxic co-dependency”, the source said they’ll always be in each other’s lives.

“He could cut her off but he chooses not to… because deep down he thinks he needs her because they are ‘Tully and Drew’,” they surmised. “Narcissistic beyond belief.

“He will always be a player.” Ouch!
