During filming
In Episode 6, Gladys and Abe got into a violent shouting match in the hotel over Abe’s hook-up with Susie (from Road Rules: Down Under) the previous evening. When Gladys physically attacked Abe and scratched his face, she was sent home for breach of contract.
In Episode 7, Tom Arnold and his wife made a surprise appearance taking the roadies out on their boat for a fishing “competition”. Brian caught the only fish (a small one) but over the course of the day Tom served an important role performing as mediator over the Gladys/Abe fallout and healing some of the leftover wounds.
After filming
In 2011, Holly Shand married Justin Darcy. The couple has two daughters.[1]
On March 29, 2018, Brian Lancaster died at the age of 43. Though the cause of death was not immediately confirmed, TMZ confirmed that Lancaster had a history of heart failure and arrhythmia.[2]
