has spoken out about the show in a new interview and discussed struggling with her mental health while filming.
St James — who’s also known as Sarah Tangye — spoke to the about her time on . She’s from the aforementioned Gold Coast and moved to Byron on the show to pursue her music career.
In the interview, she described filming the show as a “mindfuck” and “absolute torture”. St James also said her mental health suffered while filming and she “was drinking far too much”.
“I like being able to deal with things head on, and not being able to and losing that control was a catalyst for a lot of my anxiety,” she said.
She explained they were filming for around 12 weeks and “80 per cent of that time I was drinking too much”.
“It only got towards the end when I was like ‘Okay, maybe I should stop’.”
At one point, St James claimed she and co-star were sat out the front during a shoot for two hours and “couldn’t leave”.
She’d brought a bottle of gin in her bag and was drinking it — until the bottle was ultimately confiscated.
As well as discussing her mental health, St James also shared some of the reasons she disliked being in Byron Bay.
Turns out, if there is a second season of , she wouldn’t be interested in going back to the town the show.
“People from Byron [pretend] that they’re all welcoming and spiritual and that it’s this beautiful, easy breezy town but then in the same breath will be insanely judgemental,” she said.
“Some of the most judgemental people that I have ever met.”
She confirmed she didn’t have “beef” with her cast mates but said she was “happy” in the Gold Coast.
Another point for the GC I guess!
At the moment, it’s pretty unclear whether will cop another season.
Netflix hasn’t renewed the series yet, but it also hasn’t be cancelled either. Only time — or maybe tarot cards — will tell.
