Last week it emerged that** Married At First Sight's** Ben Jardine and his wife Stephanie had split up, after Ben told Fubar radio that he'd dumped Stephanie leaving her 'gutted'.
Despite 36-year-old Ben claiming he'd spoken to his bride before the interview, Stephanie's friend revealed the first she'd heard about her failed marriage was during a news report about the couple on the radio.
Stephanie's friend who is a former **Married at First Sight **contestant, took to Instagram to say 'So we all found out via this article just now too. Even Steph. What a t--t.' [sic]
And as if things couldn't get any worse for Stephanie, Ben has now admitted to cheating on his wife.
Speaking in a recent interview, Ben admitted to kissing another woman. However, the millionaire property developer said that even though he knew it was already over with Stephanie, they were meant to be seeing how things went.
He went on to say he didn't love Stephanie but that he wanted to apologise to his wife.
Last week, Ben initially told Fubar radio, "It broke my heart to do what I had to do, I couldn’t give someone so lovely and so nice what she wanted."
Ben continued, "She’s a lovely girl and I’m still friends with her but I couldn’t give her what she needed, or what she wanted. She’s a beautiful girl and a phenomenal person. Stephanie and I are still friends but I couldn’t give her what she wanted and what she needed, and time is of the essence."
Ben and Stephanie first met on their wedding day as part of the series of **Married at First Sight **and seemed to be getting along very well as they went on a week's honeymoon to Mallorca. However, tempers began to fray when the couple returned to the UK and had to move in together for a seven week trial period.
Despite a few arguments, as the three-part series concluded last week, Stephanie said, "I can't believe there is somebody in the world who has been matched to me as well as Ben."
The pair previously appeared on This Morning to discuss the Channel 4 programme, where they seemed happy at the time.
