‘Just putting it out there, I am not on Byron Baes, no, no, no… I’m not,’ Elyse said in a video of herself while at the beach with her newborn. 

‘I’ve given birth to a baby, got leaky b**bs, screaming at every hour during the night, I think I’ve got enough going on don’t you?’

She added in a sarcastic whisper: ‘Yeah, no.’

Netflix announced their new plans for the show earlier this week. 

According to The Sydney Morning Herald, Elyse was ‘hotly tipped’ for a starring role.

Meanwhile earlier this week, Byron Bay influencer Ruby Tuesday Matthews slammed the upcoming series and made it clear she won’t be making an appearance on the show.

Ruby posted a promotional image for Byron Baes on Instagram stories, and wrote: ‘For everyone asking if I’ll be on this show, I declined the offer.’

‘Goodbye Byron, you are officially cooked. How embarrassing,’ she added. 

Ruby also used the hashtag #ShireRepeat?, in reference to Channel 10’s short-lived 2012 reality show about the glamorous residents of Sydney’s Sutherland Shire.

Byron Baes will run for eight episodes in total.

A press release for the program describes Byron Baes as a ‘docu-soap series’. 

‘This is our love letter to Byron Bay,’ it states.

‘It’s not just Chris [Hemsworth] and Zac [Efron]’s backyard; it’s the playground of more celebrity-adjacent influencers than you can poke a selfie-stick at.’

There will be ‘fights, flings and heartbreak’ on offer, too.
