Married at First Sight Australia 2024 groom Jack Dunkley‘s ex Courtney has issued a statement following weeks of chaos on and off-screen.
In case you’ve been living under a rock, it was revealed that Jack had dumped Courtney to appear on MAFS, which she learned mid-2023 once photos of him on set leaked online.
Since then, a bunch of drama has unfolded, including revelations that Jack had shared intimate images of Courtney with his co-stars.
Claims also emerged that Courtney and Jack hooked up after he finished filming, even though he is still with Tori Adams.
Now, as reported in episode 365 of the So Dramatic! podcast, Courtney issued an exclusive statement to So Dramatic! on February 24, confirming that she reunited with Jack post-show.
“l don’t really want to go into detail, but Jack and I did sleep together after he came home from Sydney a couple of times,” she told host Megan Pustetto.
“I found out he showed people my nudes on my 26th birthday, and he spent an hour on the phone to me, apologising and explaining it to me, but I don’t believe anything he says now.”
Courtney said Jack “lead [her] to believe he wanted to fix things with [her]”.
“Then he told me he couldn’t be with me or anyone for that matter as he wanted to focus on his media career, and he said I would jeopardise this for him,” she alleged.
“Everything he said to me has been a complete and utter lie, including telling me he never downplayed or disrespected our relationship, which he has, and I was about to forgive him.”
Why Jack’s ex Courtney declined to appear at the Married at First Sight 2024 Reunion
As previously revealed by So Dramatic!, several of Jack’s co-stars reached out to Courtney after it was exposed he dumped her for the show, asking her to attend the MAFS Reunion.
“Timothy [Smith] slid into Courtney’s DMs in October, after the show finished, asking her to chat and if she wanted to come to the reunion to clear her name because Jack had been running her name through the mud,” one source said.
Another participant dished: “It wasn’t just Timothy who reached out. Andrea [Thompson], Mike [Felix], and a few others did as well. But she didn’t reply to anyone.”
According to Courtney, she didn’t take up the offer as she was “still talking to” Jack.
“He was still manipulating me,” she confessed. “I thought he was going to be the same person I fell in love with, but he isn’t, and I honestly don’t think I truly know who he is.
“I waited for him to come home to try and sort things out with him, and he came home and broke my heart again and continues to and has no remorse whatsoever for what I’ve been going through.”
She noted that she was not speaking out “for fame”.
“I just think this is completely ridiculous now,” she concluded. “I am trying to stay silent, but this has been so heartbreaking for me.”
Courtney calls Jack Dunkley and Tori Adams’ relationship a ‘SCAM’
When asked about her thoughts on Jack and Tori’s relationship, Courtney said she was “taken aback” by “how ridiculous” the news they are moving in together is.
“Everything regarding their ‘marriage’ is nothing more than a scam for publicity, fame, and money,” she claimed.
“Jack was trying to convince me to do OnlyFans with him when he came home after filming. He even told me Tori allegedly wanted to be a pornstar.
“Tori will be a part of this whole thing. I don’t know why people feel sorry for her at all.
“He’s not leading Tori on and manipulating her. This is all part of their plan together.”
Before dropping a huge bombshell, Jack has allegedly cheated on Tori with other women.
“I even had a girlfriend say to me that he has recently been on dates with other women as well,” she said. Yikes!
Courtney’s statement was issued before news that Jack was granted a temporary protection order against her on March 7.
