Leaked messages have revealed that Bride and Prejudice Australia 2019‘s Dannii Erskine‘s sister Dee confirmed her “death” to co-star Jojo Ellias.
ICYMI (we’re sure you didn’t): Alarm bells were raised when Dannii’s Instagram page started sharing memorium posts about the reality star before someone claiming to be Dee told So Dramatic! Dannii had died in April following a fatal car accident.
Dannii has since confirmed she is “alive and well” and maintains the drama is part of an elaborate “death hoax” orchestrated by a “well-known stalker”.
The 28-year-old and her family continue to deny involvement, despite sources revealing Dannii similarly “faked her death” in 2022.
Relatives also seemingly confirmed her most recent “death” on social media.
Now, Dannii’s co-star and former close friend Jojo has shared alarming details that indicate Dee is somehow involved in the ordeal.
In episode 290 of the So Dramatic! podcast, Jojo revealed she spoke to Dee after rumours of Dannii’s death emerged.
“I do have evidence that her sister was well aware of everything that was going on,” she confessed.

In messages since obtained by So Dramatic!, Jojo contacted Dee asking if Dannii was alive.
“So on the 29th of April, which was when it all sort of got announced, I messaged Dee on Facebook,” Jojo explained.
“Hey Dee, it’s Jojo here. Is this true?” she wrote alongside a screenshot of the death notice on Dannii’s Instagram page.
The following morning, Dee responded: “Hi Jojo no its [sic] not true at all.
“One of her exs [sic] has done all this he just got out of jail now the police have him barrackaed [sic] around [his] house at the moment.”
Telling host Megan Pustetto that the Erskine family “love the drama”, Jojo said Dee sent another message an hour later.
“Im really sorry cant comment. and appreciations if you would keep this to yourself and social media i will keep in contact [sic],” it read.
Then, just 22 minutes later, Dee wrote: “Also you have danniis number i didnt think you girls have much time for her so im a bit confused [sic].
“And yes she is dead.”
A fourth message read: “Also i dont have anytime time for you so enjoy yoir soical media and dont contact me as we are all grieving!! [sic].”
Dee Erskine sent Jojo Ellias aggressive messages
Jojo later told Megan that several days later, Dee sent her the link to episode 286 of the So Dramatic! podcast, which was a deep-dive investigation into the situation involving Dannii’s supposed death.
“I thought, ‘What the hell?'” Jojo explained. “I don’t have time to sit here and get involved in drama, so I didn’t respond.”
However, at 4:12 am the following day, Dee sent a follow-up message.
Reading out the message, Jojo said Dee wrote: “You’re just as sick as Dannii, Jojo. good lick with your podcast loser. Get a real job, work for your money than just using your mouth you piece of sh*t.
“I work hard. You should actually be ashamed of yourself. You and your wife take care. Don’t ever contact me again.
“You slimebag leave me alone so I can have my family back you vultures.”
However, at this point in time, Jojo and her wife, Jess Pawa, had not been in contact with So Dramatic!.
Responding to Dannii’s sister, the reality star asked whether she was “serious”.
“I have no idea what you’re actually going on about,” she penned. “You messaged me last week confirming your sister was dead after saying it wasn’t true.
“You are your sister both need help!! You had 12 days to come clean and you did nothing so you’re just as guilty as twisted as your sister!!
“You’re the one who is going to need the luck getting yourself out of this little mess you all created.”

“Put that in ya pod cast ya ole now f*ck off so i can enjoy the sun i live in melbourne seaford to be excact but you know already you creep. have a nice day [sic].”
