Here’s who has left My Kitchen Rules 2025

Lol and Lil were the underdogs of the competition! The besties tried their hardest, scoring perfect 10s for some of their dishes throughout the competition. But unfortunately, the QLD team was eliminated in the semi-final.

“But honestly? We’re calling it a win, we made it to the semis, didn’t poison anyone and managed to smile through a few interesting moments,” Lol shared on Instagram. “If you’re looking for us, we’ll be in our kitchens at home cooking whatever we want without a timer or a camera crew.

“We gave it flavour, drama and a few questionable plating decisions but we had the best time doing it.”

The WA pair gave the competition their all, making it to the semi-finals where they cooked against Justin and Will.

After their elimination, Marko took to Instagram to reveal there was “no shame in losing to the lads.”

“They’re some beasts in the kitchen and will be super hard to beat in the grand final,” he shared. “WHAT A JOURNEY. What an honour to be a small part of a TV program that has such a rich history in Australian culture.

“The support we’ve gotten has been legitimately overwhelming and genuinely feels like we’re living a dream. None of this is possible without the people that works behind the scenes keeping this thing running smoothly, it really is a well oiled machine. Made friends for life all over the country, tried our best to make our family and WA proud and always did it OUR way.

“Also if anyone has $100k they can send me that would be sick because I already started planning on what I was gunna do with the money, cheers,” he joked.

Best mates Mark and Tan were eliminated just before the semi-finals. The pair had ambitious plans for their Ultimate Instant Restaurant, cooking Thai fusion dishes.

The entree was a Pork and Prawn Dumplings with Thai Red Curry Sauce and Tuna Tartare with Fried Seaweed Crisps. Followed by a Pad See Ew with Grilled Steak and the Pan-Seared Duck with Chilli Orange Sauce for the main dish. They then prepared two dessert which were the boys “undoing”: an undercooked Boozy Bitter Orange Steamed Puddings and an overbaked Thai Milk Tea Tart.

Mark and Tan scored 56 out of 100.

“It’s heartbreaking to hear we messed up and we’ve just got to pay the price,” Tan said.

MKR’s most controversial team, meat-master Michael and pastry queen Rielli have been eliminated in a nail-biting cook-off.

They battled against Danielle and Marko in a banquet-style challenge, and lost by just one point. The pair had ambitious goals for their meal, serving a Pulled Pork, Baby Back Ribs, Apple Slaw, and Rielli’s signature bread rolls.

Unfortunately, they were hit by a number of set backs including Michael dropping a tray of ribs on the floor…

Greek mother and daughter, Anne and Marie headed into the Kitchen HQ for an intense cook-off against besties Lol and Lil. In three hours, the pair served a two-course banquet featuring impressive Greek dishes.

The main dish was a traditional feast of lamb shoulder, lemon potatoes, dolmades, Greek salad and tzatziki. For dessert, they attempted a Greek Ekmek Kataifi which received mixed reviews from the judges.

“You took us to Greece,” Manu praised. But unfortunately, it wasn’t enough.

Anne and Marie scored 19 out of 30, while their competition scored 21.

Divorcees from Queensland’s instant restaurant Only Pans was the most anticipated of the season, but the dishes fell short.

Amy and Lara started strong with a Ceviche Betel Leaf with Pork Crackling and Peanut relish entree, with Manu scoring it a nine! However, their confidence took a tumble after delivering an under-cooked lobster during the main course.

Their main course was a more luxury take on the Surf and Turf featuring Eye Fillet, Lobster, and Truffle mash which Manu and Colin scored three and two respectively. Their White Chocolate and Passionfruit Cheesecake dessert also received low scores.

Lara and Amy’s total score from the judges was 32 out of 60.

After finding themselves at the bottom of the leaderboard with 50 points, feisty cousins Mel and Jacinta were the first contestants to be eliminated.
