Sh*t hit the fan when Courtney commented on a post showing Jack and Tori Adams tying the knot, claiming that he’d lied and told her he was moving overseas when he was actually joining the marriage experiment. Yikes!
Now, one of Jack’s ‘friends’ named Jo commented under this post in support of the groom, hitting back at Courtney’s claims.
“I’ve known @jackdunkley for over 15 years, and I knew their situation,” Jo wrote.
“[Jack and Courtney] had a very brief yet respectfully casual relationship, and he tried to end it a couple of times with her.
“If this was a man treating a girl like Courtney has been [treating] Jack, this would be a police matter. I’ve seen the endless messages and phone calls she has been leaving him.”
Jo added, “Jack’s trying to find love. He wants to find a nice, sweet girl, and Tori might just be the one for him!
“I’m sure Tori has already worked out that he is one of the good ones.”
Courtney says she ‘wasn’t proud’ of her decisions following her breakup from Married at First Sight’s Jack Dunkley
Courtney responded to Jo’s comment, stating that she “wasn’t proud of [her] decisions following the breakup”.
“I know myself, I’ve been crazy and will own that,” she penned. “My mental health has suffered due to being completely blindsided and losing my best friend to a reality TV show.
“Jack has never tried to break up with me, and our relationship was becoming quite serious (hence why I went to Melbourne with him a week before we split).
“We spoke regularly about our future together, and I don’t believe he is on the show for the right reasons at all.”
She continued: “I’m just telling my side of the story as what has happened here has been horrible… I wouldn’t wish this on you or anyone else. I most certainly deserved the respect of the truth.
“Respect to you for having his back, but nothing about this is morally right.” Yikes…
Married at First Sight’s Jack Dunkley’s ‘friend’ Jo is exposed as his ex-girlfriend
Now, we did a little digging on Jack’s mate Jo, and it turns out there’s more to their friendship than meets the eye.
As revealed in episode 347 of the So Dramatic! podcast, Jo actually used to date Jack!
“Yes, we dated and ended but have always remained good friends, even our families,” Jo told So Dramatic!. “We’ve known each other for 17 years… He’s been looking to settle down for many years.
“Jack is respectful, funny, and hard-working. He has built a successful PT business of 10 years by helping others feel confident and empowered, and his clients have the utmost respect for him and look up to him.”
And we guess that explains why all of his wedding guests were his clients!
Judging from Instagram photos acquired by So Dramatic! Jack and Jo dated back in 2018. However, it’s unclear how long their romantic relationship lasted.
Courtney speaks out about her breakup from MAFS‘ Jack
Courtney has since made several subtle comments in her captions on Instagram that we can only assume are about Jack.
On December 24, she uploaded a post captioned: “Happy because this horrible year is almost over.
“Bring on 2024, where I won’t be allowing humans into my life unless they’re authentic, honest, wholesome and giving myself the love, happiness and success I deserve.
“In a world filled with fakes, being real is the ultimate gift.” Shots fired!
Courtney also (presumably) took a stab at Jack in May 2023 when she shared a post captioned: “Happiness. Pure Happiness,” alongside the hashtag #Freedom.
In August 2023, she uploaded a photo of a tattoo on her wrist reading: “You are enough”.
“You are enough, a thousand times enough,” she wrote to the captions. “Never forget your worth. #Dailyreminder”.
And we have a bad feeling Jack was the reason she’d felt worthless in the first place…
