Married At First Sight UK star Jordon Mundell has spoken out to address claims he was still in a relationship while filming the show.
The 26-year-old personal trainer was matched up with Alexis Economou by dating experts Mel Schilling, Paul C Brunson and Charlene Douglas, but it hasn’t been plain sailing for them since they walked down the aisle, with Jordon admitting he wasn’t attracted to Alexis during their honeymoon.
Things then took another twist earlier this week when it was reported that Jordon and Alexis had already split as he had reunited with his ex.
A social media user, who claims to be a friend of Jordon’s on/off girlfriend, shared a number of snaps of Jordon looking loved up with a petite brunette and wrote, “For anyone wondering, this is my friend’s Insta… but he likes blondes though?”
She added, "Imagine having a stunning Mrs of 11 years and disappearing to film a tv show to get 15 mins of fame. Jordon is an absolute clown."
However, following his exit from the experiment, Jordon took to social media to break his silence as he insisted he was single before appearing on the show.

1 of 12Sam Ball and Elizabeth Sobinoff
Sam and Elizabeth might not have lasted, as Sam seemed far more interested in Ines. But Lizzie was the true winner - she was so popular with viewers she appeared on the next series of the show, finding love with Seb Guilhaus. But, sadly, they split earlier this month after a year together.
2 of 12Cyrell Jimenez and Nic Jovanovic
'Cyclone Cyrell' and Nic's tumultuous relationship was, sadly, not to last. But prepare for another reality TV crossover, as Cyrell now has a baby with Love Island runner-up Eden Dally.
3 of 12Lauren Huntriss and Matthew Bennett
One of the biggest storylines this season was about Matthew and his virginity, as he was repeatedly labelled as 'virgin'/'ex-virgin' Matt by the narrator. Anyway, Matthew was matched with Lauren - who, yes, he lost his virginity to - but it all went horribly wrong when Lauren heard Matthew telling the other guys at dinner that he wasn't sexually attracted to Lauren. AWKWARD. Lauren is still a make-up artist, we don't know if she's dating anyone. But on the other hand, self-confessed fitness enthusiast Matthew is loved up with a new girlfriend - who he met at a wrestling tryout.
4 of 12Mike Gunner and Heidi Latcham
Mike and Heidi's relationship was one which could have gone either way, but after the show, the pair split - announcing the sad news at the post-finale reunion special. 'Right after the final vows, Heidi and I went back to the Gold Coast together but it didn't take long and the wheels started coming off,' Mike explained. Heidi has said she hasn't spoken to her former husband since. From the looks of their Instagram pages, they still look single.
5 of 12Cam Merchant and Jules Robinson
Oh, Cameron and Jules. From the minute Jules and Cam had their first wedding dance without any music, we had an inkling they were in it for the long haul. And we were right! The pair now have a baby together, who was born in October last year, and tied the knot properly after the show. So, yes - sometimes this wild experiment does work.
6 of 12Melissa Lucarelli and Dino Hira
Probably the worst matched couple on the series, it isn't shock the pair called it quits on the show after Dino allegedly recorded a conversation Melissa was having with her sister about the wedding day. It appears both are still single.
7 of 12Martha Kalifatidis and Michael Brunelli
Martha and Michael were an extremely drama free pair (in comparison to everyone else) so it's no shock that they have actually managed to stay together. Yay!
8 of 12Ning Surasiang and Mark Scrivens
Eek. Another very up and down pair, Ning and Mark's relationship dissolved during the final commitment ceremony - with Mark dumping Ning, much to her shock. Following the show, Mark moved on with another former reality star, Bianca Chatfield – who appeared on home renovation show The Block. And Ning also has a new partner.
9 of 12Susie Bradley and Billy Vincent
Susie and Billy were one of the couples who married later in the experiment. From the get go, Susie kept on calling Billy awkward - even calling him a deeb at one point on their honeymoon. They split before the final commitment ceremony. Susie is now dating former rugby pro Todd Carney and they have a baby on the way. However, Billy appears to be single.
10 of 12Ines Basic and Bronson Norrish
We knew this relationship wasn't going to last from the moment Ines asked Bronson to take out his eyebrow ring. Ines went on to have an affair with Sam, which Sam has since claimed was faked by producers, and it all came out during an explosive commitment ceremony. Bronson is now a lot happier with girlfriend Hayley Wallis. And from her Instagram, Ines looks to be single at the moment.
11 of 12Jessika Power and Mick Gould
Major cracks started to show in Mick and Jessika's relationship, then Jessika went after one of the newly weds, Dan. Not a shock that Jessica and Mick didn't survive then…(Neither did her affair with Dan, btw.)
12 of 12Dan Webb and Tamara Joy
After these two fell apart thanks to Jessika and Dan's affair, Tamara was linked to Jessika's ex, Mick. The drama never stops.
Jordon wrote, “Hi everyone, there have been some claims about my relationship status that I would like to personally respond to. These claims are not true, I was very much single when I entered MAFS.
“I was previously in a relationship, which finished at the end of 2019 and the photographs that have been published are also from that time.”
He added, “I was previously in a relationship, which finished at the end of 2019 and the photographs that have been published are also from that time.”
In last night’s episode of Married At First Sight, Jordon and Alexis quit the process following the breakdown of their relationship.

The truth about why the Married At First Sight UK cast don't follow each other on Instagram

They weren’t the only couple to leave either as Nikita was axed following an explosive dinner party row with Jordon, which meant her husband Ant Poole had to leave the experiment by default.
It’s claimed that Nikita launched into a foul-mouthed rant at her co-stars and had to be dragged away by security.
A Married At First Sight spokesperson confirmed that Nikita had been removed from the show in a statement earlier this week. They said, “The wellbeing of cast and crew is our utmost priority at all times throughout production and beyond.
“During filming, a situation escalated off camera and Nikita displayed a level of aggression that was unacceptable and breached our agreed code of conduct on behaviour. As a result, she was asked to leave the experiment. All involved have been offered support and Nikita has since apologised and resolved the situation with those involved."
