They’d only been dating for two months, but earlier this week Jessika Power announced her shock split from fellow Married At First Sight alum Nick Furphy.
And despite insisting the split was amicable, doubts have been cast over fame-hungry Jess’ real motives for calling time on the relationship.
WATCH Jess defend her messy feud with Cyrell:
A report from the Mail Online suggests that the 27-year-old’s new-found singledom conveniently coincides with the announcement that Love Island Australia has been confirmed for another season. Interestingly, Jess started following Love Island Australia’s Instagram account soon after announcing her split from Nick.
Fans of Love Island will know contestants are expected to be single in order to take part.
Jess shocked fans earlier this week by announcing her split from Nick via Instagram.
“I know there’s a lot of speculation going around right now in regards to my relationship status with Nick,” she began. “Regretfully after thinking of what’s best for myself and Nick I decided to ended (sic) our relationship.”

She went on to thank her fans for their support, however, asked they respect her privacy.
“I love you all and I appreciate the concern but this is fresh and private. I’m not ready just yet to discuss or go into detail but thank you all for the kind messages and support.”
The news of their breakup comes less than a week after Jessika and Nick— who also rose to fame on MAFS— were caught in a public spat after enjoying what was meant to be a romantic vacation in Bali. According to onlookers, Jessika was screaming and swearing at Nick during a heated argument at Ngurah Rai International Airport.
