Married At First Sight Australia star Jessika Power dated a criminal kickboxer who once killed a great-grandmother, it has been revealed.
Although she was originally matched with Mick Gould on the reality series, Jessika embarked on an affair with latecomer Dan Webb. They continued their relationship when filming ended but later split, with Jessika going on to start a relationship with convicted criminal Suleiman 'Sam' Abdulrahim.
He was sentenced to three years and three months in jail after crashing into a car while driving 31mph over the speed limit on the wrong side of the road.
Suleiman clipped two vehicles in the 2015 accident before driving into Lynette Vernall, who was driving her 88-year-old mum Muriel Hulett to her retirement home.
While Lynette suffered serious injuries in the crash, Muriel sadly passed away after eight days in a coma.
Suleiman began dating MAFS star Jessika following his early release and was seen showing her around Melbourne in May 2019 after she flew to the Gold Coast to spend time with him. However, a spanner was thrown in the works when his parole was revoked a month later due to threats against his life.

The former kickboxer – who was described as an “utter menace” by a Supreme Court judge – has an extensive criminal record after continuing to flout the rules while on bail.
As well as speeding offences and driving without a license, police caught with him 138 grams of methamphetamine and four vials of steroids.
Jessika split from Suleiman in 2019 and is now dating aspiring rapper Filip Poznanovic, who also goes by the stage name Filthy Fil.

The shocking reason why fans are furious at MAFS Australia’s Sam Ball
Jessika recently revealed that she battled a “scary” Xanax addiction in the wake of the show, which originally aired in Australia two years ago, after facing vicious online trolling from viewers while dealing with her split from Dan.
“I was already copping hate from the Australian public. I was copping hate from his family, his friends. And then I also had to deal with a breakup, the hurt of a breakup,” she explained to Metro.
"Then when we broke up, I was also getting double hate [from people] saying, 'Sucked in you bitch, you f--king deserve it.' Then the second that we broke up, all these girls came out of the woodwork with, 'Dan did this when you were together, Dan did that'.
"I was at a really low point, I actually got a really bad Xanax addiction. I was drinking a bottle or two of white wine a day on Xanax. It was really bad."
