Kayla, who met Best on social media, highlighted his good character, leading to Fenech approving the relationship. Best's performance on and off the field has garnered praise, with potential consideration for the NSW Blues team. The evolving dynamics between Fenech, Kayla, and Best showcase a positive shift from initial disapproval to acceptance and support.
