The former The Bachelor frontman, who is currently starring on Channel 7’s SAS Australia, butted heads on several occasions with Australian comedian Paul Fenech, with the duo involved in a string of heated arguments.And after Fenech voluntarily bowed out of the course last week, it appears his opinion of the ex Survivor star is unchanged.“You can see it on the show, he is immature. He might be big, but he acts like a child,” Fenech said on the SAS Australia Debrief podcast.“I knew he was a d**khead on the course, but I didn’t realise what a total wanker he was.”Fenech, 49, said his opinion of Gilbert worsened upon watching the show back, when he noticed Gilbert was being two-faced after they’d attempted to patch things over.“What I did not know until I watched the show was that he stabbed me in the back two seconds after shaking my hand,” Fenech said.“Looking back now I think ‘what a dog’. If I had known that I wouldn’t have shook his hand. I would have just gone over and kneed him in the face and put a bit of character on his pretty boy nose.“I thought he was just being a jerk, there is no other way to put it.”Gilbert, 30, has been slammed by the soldiers throughout the series for being unable to work in a team, with Fenech initially thinking they “went a bit hard on him”.“But after watching it all I saw was a baby who has never been challenged in his life and the first time I challenged him and the DS actually really confronted him about who he was, he fell to pieces,” Fenech said.“A person’s character is what is important to me and that man has little character and if he wants to get some he better start growing it cause … he is not a baby, if he was 18 you could say, ‘maybe, oh well he is young’, but he is not young. If he has not grown up by now I don’t know what’s going to happen.”SAS Australia continues on Channel 7
