The Married At First Sight marathon is finally over after the explosive two-part reunion episode wrapped up on Monday night. And while we still have SO much to process, including our absolute love and respect for Lizzie and our total pride in Heidi for finally telling Mike just how toxic he is, it was perhaps the show's controversial couple Jessika Power and Dan Webb that got all of Australia talking. On Monday night's grand finale, Jess was finally forced to face the music and had to re-watch the moment she hit on Cyrell's husband Nic Jovanovic. Although Nic rejected Jess' advances, it was the first time Dan had ever seen the footage and he couldn't have felt more betrayed as he had specifically asked Jess if she had made a move on anyone else in the experiment other than him, to which she promised she hadn't. It's fair to say Jess was absolutely dragged through the coals by her co-stars, new boyfriend and all of Australia for her lying ways. What's more, despite seeing the footage play out, which shows in crystal clear colour Jess propositioning Nic behind first husband Mick's back, Jess still tried to deny she wasn't really putting on the moves. OK then. But her grilling didn't end there. Shortly after the finale, Jess and Dan appeared on Nine's MAFS spin-off show Talking Married for what shaped up to be the world's most awkward interview ever. The frosty couple sat miles apart from each other with Jess shooting daggers at Dan and the co-hosts, who re-played the infamous Nic footage again and asked the pair if they'd managed to overcome their trust issues. "It was disgusting, it was really, really hard watching it back. Seeing him hurt tonight, it's hurting me as well," the blonde bombshell admitted after having to watch the painful video with her new man for a second time. But it was a clearly rattled Dan, who seemed to be unpacking the mental load of their troubled relationship on air, and didn't hold back about just how much damage the scandal had done.

I love the girl, but it's an awkward position I'm in right now," the father-of-one said. The show's host Ben Fordham then revealed that the couple were fighting off-air during the ad break. "You guys had a bit of a dispute. There were some F-bombs going back and forth," Ben said. Dan then opened up about their issues, admitting he still can't get over the fact Jess refuses to take responsibility for her actions and admit she hit on Nic. "The question I've got for Jess, why did she lie about it? Why couldn't she be honest from the start? I did ask her 'Did you try this on another guy?' That's probably the thing that unsettles me the most. If she was honest and just told me, I wouldn't care. It feels like she goes down with the lie … dies with the lie," Dan said. "It raises huge trust issues for me, and that's what we've been struggling with over the last few months in our relationship."

(Image: Talking Married/Nine) While Jess, who has since moved to the Gold Coast to be with Dan, hit back at the drama insisting everything had been "blown out of proportion in high magnitudes", before sheepishly admitting "I did hit on Nic, yeah." Indeed, Jess' story kept changing and Dan was quick to call her out on it. "That's the first time she's admitted it to me, just right now," Dan noted. Jess retorted, trying to back-pedal for the umpteenth time: "I wasn't interested in being with Nic, I wasn't interested in swapping with Nic! Looking back on it, it looks like I did hit on him and that's what everybody here wants me to admit, so yeah I'm admitting it for Dan. I don't feel like I did, but it's obviously what Dan wants to hear." "It's not what a want to hear," Dan snapped. "We're not having a fight on national television," an agitated Jess fumed. Cue the MAFS pair going around and around in circles. If looks could kill! Jess and Dan's body language was VERY frosty. (Image: Talking Married/Nine) "The best way to build trust would be to uncover the lies you spoke about first to make sure it doesn't happen again, but it's been three months and she, you just admitted it now," the former rugby player said. "I don't feel like I hit on Nic," the Perth beauty insisted. "But you said just before you did, he's saying you did. It's just like we're banging our heads against the wall trying to get something out of it." Oh dear, not really the image of a loved-up reality romance now is it? The interview went from bad to worst when Jess point-blank refused to answer one of Dan's questions. "Me and Jess get along great, we have great times and things do feel really fun and happy when we're together but then one little negative, like last night or tonight's episodes can just raise so much doubt, and articles here and articles there creates so much negativity and toxicity in our relationship, it really does. Do you feel that?" Dan asked his partner, who simply returned his query with a scowl and deafening silence. Talking host Jayne Azzopardi asked if Jess was going to answer Dan. "I don't think this is a conversation we need to be having on air," the 26-year-old raged. Dan also admitted he wasn't sure if they could ever rebuild the trust, which isn't surprising considering the entire foundation of their romance started under the shadow of lies and betrayal behind their respective partner's backs. Dan isn't exactly the poster boy for being honest as the former rugby player is currently facing potential jail time over a multi-million dollar telemarketing scam.

Photo: Instagram/jessika_power In the wake of last night’s exclusive revelation that Dan Powers and Jesskia Powers have split a deafening silence has emanated from both parties involved, until now. Dan confirmed in an exclusive video shared with Yahoo Lifestyle that he and co-star Jessika Power have split last night. While Jess has failed to respond to requests for comment – or make any directly online commentary on the situation – an Instagram story she shared last night is a broad hint that the reality star isn’t letting the drama keep her down. Jess shared a glammed up ‘girls night out’ with some of her besties to the story and it looks like the 26-year-old has moved well and truely on. Jess glammed up to shut down any idea she’s greiving her relationship. Photo: Instagram/jessika_power The blonde bombshell rocked a high-glam look in a plunging sequinned gown she wasn’t shy of showing off. In the videos the MAFS bride was seen partying with friends and even hit the dance floor for a solo boogie which may have lacked some enthusiasm, but was accessorised with a broad smile. The devil-may-care attitude on show likely had a lot to do with Dans exclusive interview last night, which flew in the face of Jess’ earlier claims that the pairs relationship was live and well. Dan says the pair split on Monday night after their live TV tiff on Talking Married. Photo: Channel Nine Dan confirmed the pair broke up following that awkward live interview after Monday night’s MAFS finale. “She was very upset and I was upset too watching her being upset. We just spoke and I was just honest with her. I said, ‘Look I don’t think I can continue this. It’s toxic, you’re not being honest with me. I can’t have a relationship with someone if they’re not honest with me’.” he revealed. Married At First Sight star Dan Webb has confirmed he and co-star Jessika Power have split.

It's the Married At First Sight recap! It's the season finale and the whole gang is back on the couch for a shock-filled, expletive-laden group therapy session. It's the Married At First Sight recap!... Controversial Married At First Sight couple Dan Webb and Jessika Power have broken up, the single dad has confirmed in an explosive interview slamming the reality TV villain. The 35-year-old didn’t hold back in a video interview published by Yahoo Lifestyle on Friday evening, in which he said he has feelings of “regret about ever meeting Jess” — ouch. Dan’s interview contradicts claims made by Jess earlier this week that the two were “working through” their issues after fighting their way through a live interview on Talking Married on Monday. “Me and Jess have split, let’s get that straight. We have broken up,” Dan said on Friday. “There’s allegations coming out that we’re still together. She’s saying we’re still together. We are not together.” Dan explained the couple’s relationship had come under strain after watching the reunion commitment ceremony, in which Jess was exposed for propositioning fellow MAFS star Nic Jovanovic. Dan said the pair had “trust issues” throughout their relationship and reliving the reunion had reminded him “why I broke up with her at the start”. Jess previously told news.com.au she and Dan had broken up briefly after filming the reunion episodes in January. Then as the pair were set to appear on Talking Married earlier this week, Dan said he asked Jess to confirm whether she and Nic had ever hooked up — and all hell broke loose, with their awkward bickering going viral. “So after Talking Married, as soon as the cameras cut, Jess stormed off. She was pretty broken. She was very upset,” Dan said. Dan claimed she and him then had a conversation in which he said their relationship was “toxic” and they would be better going their separate ways. He said he had a “a lot of regret” over how he behaved on MAFS, which saw Dan cheat on his “wife” Tamara Joy with Jess. In an interview with the Kyle and Jackie O Show on Thursday Jess said her and Dan’s relationship was on “shaky” ground but they were “working through a lot of things”. “I feel humiliated with the way that he spoke to me on Talking Married,” Jess said on KIIS FM. “I’m a little bit hurt, Dan’s a little bit hurt.” The day before that her and Dan’s relationship was dealt another blow when a woman named Hannah told Kyle and Jackie O that Dan hit on her and kissed her on a night out two months ago when he was in a relationship with Jess. But addressing the allegation during her interview with Kyle and Jackie O Show Jess said: “He (Dan) says it’s not true. I just don’t see him doing that. “People are throwing around cheating allegations on my end and on his end, and I just think, ‘Why would we put ourselves through so much effort and all this emotional stress to just cheat on each other?’” Jess and Dan’s relationship has been nothing short of controversial, with their romance beginning in secret after they met at one of the MAFS dinner parties. Jess was unhappy in her “marriage” to Mick Gould while Dan was fresh to the experiment as an intruder alongside “wife” Tamara. They carried on their affair in secret for weeks before coming clean at the last commitment ceremony, in which the experts controversially decided to let them re-enter the show as a new couple. But despite their new relationship both Dan and Jess declared their feelings for each other in the vow renewal ceremony. “I am so wholeheartedly, head over heels, unconditionally in love with you,” Jess told Dan. “I will always be blessed so long as I have you in my life.” Dan told Jess he was prepared to give their relationship a go despite being unhappy with how their romance began. “Life’s too short to hide how you feel. I came here to fall in love and hope to have someone to take home and introduce to my son as my girl. I found that girl in you,” he said. But despite their happy ending the couple faced a backlash over their affair from viewers, with both Dan and Jess since claiming they were pressured by producers to keep their relationship a secret. “When the affair did start with Jess there was ways where I would have loved to have gone about it differently but was persuaded to do something different, if that makes sense,” Dan claimed in an interview with Hit 103.5 last month. “I would have liked to have said something obviously straight away, like when the affair started, rather than drag it out — that was definitely something that went against my character.”<doc-sep>
Married At First Sight villains Jess and Dan have hit breaking point on live television during a painfully awkward post-finale interview. Married At First Sight villains Jess and Dan have hit breaking point on live television during a painfully awkward post-finale interview.... Just when you thought the show was over, Married At First Sight’s most controversial couple has appeared in a post series finale interview, and come close to breaking up on live television. During last night’s explosive finale, video clips were played to Dan Webb, which exposed Jessika Power’s flirtation with another contestant Nic. The footage showed Jess telling Nic she was “sexually attracted” to him, before he rejected her advances, and she made her first move on Dan moments later. The episode was filmed three months ago, with the couples appearing live on Nine’s Talking Married immediately after it aired on Monday, to reveal how their relationships have been tracking. Speaking from the couple’s Gold Coast home, Dan said that the finale episode “was hard to watch back”. “And tonight, watching it again, it’s re-scratched those feelings I had,” he continued. “It’s an awkward position I’m in.” Presenter Ben Fordham pointed out that an off-air dispute had erupted between the pair during the ad break moments earlier. “There were some F bombs going off and it seems the tension is pretty strong there,” Fordham said. RELATED: Ben Fordham opens up about off-air fight between Jess and Dan Dan conceded that Jess’ denial that she propositioned Nic during the experiment was a source of ongoing tension between them. “Why couldn’t she be honest about it?” he said. “It’s the thing that unsettles me the most. It feels like she goes down with the lie … dies with the lie. “It raises huge trust issues for me and that’s what we’ve been struggling with over the last few months in our relationship.” Talking Married presenter Shelly Horton asked Jess if she still denies hitting on Nic. “No, I don’t deny hitting on Nic … I guess in some way, yes I did hit on Nic,” Jess responded. Her admission appeared to come as a surprise to Dan who said she had never admitted it before. “That’s the first time she’s admitted it to me as well,” he said. Jess then backflipped on her confession. “I’m admitting it for Dan. I don’t feel like I did, but it’s obviously what Dan wants to hear,” she said. The couple continued bickering as viewers took to Twitter in their droves to post about what some believed was a live, televised breakup. Omg watch Talking Married Jess and Dan virtually breaking up on air! 😱 #MAFS — Clare Lombardi (@signoralombardi) April 8, 2019 “Can we not fight on national television,” Jess pleaded under her breath. Fordham interjected and asked Dan if he’s “over this (relationship)” to which he responded that he wasn’t but that he has major trust issues with Jess. “To me it is (a big deal), there’s a lot to it for me. I wish I didn’t watch it tonight to be honest with you,” Dan said. Jess told him she wished she’d “been a bit more honest”. Asked if they can “trust each other three months on” and “get past it”, Dan responded: “I don’t know. I just don’t know. “One little negative … can just raise so much doubt.” The interview ended with awkward silence after the couple was asked if they could get past their trust issues. “I don’t think this is a conversation we need to be having on-air,” Jess finally said.
