Married At First Sight star reignites bitter feud with ex as she ‘drags his name through the mud’ on social media
MARRIED At First Sight fans have grabbed the popcorn after one of the show’s stars reignited a very bitter feud with his ex.
Jordan Gayle, 27, has hit out at his ex wife Erica Roberts and accused her of recording ’14 TikToks about him’, while suggesting he is “toxic”.
The personal trainer has hit back at 26-year-old Erica in a podcast and claimed she has ‘dragged his name through the mud’ with her videos.
Erica, however, has clapped back and insisted her TikTok videos are NOT about her ex husband.
But Jordan said on The Bro’Cast Podcast: “So she’s done 14 TikToks where everyone has assumed it’s about me.
“Everyone has flooded to my page, viewed my Stories, sent me messages, saying, ‘Look what she’s saying about you’… that I’m toxic or my behaviour was horrible. I’ve done this, this, this.
“She’s aware that people are assuming it’s about me.
“Whether it is about me or it isn’t, the fact that people are assuming it’s about me is bringing all this negativity. It’s making people look negatively at me.
“It’s dragging my name through the mud. To me, I would never do that because it’s not worth social media views and I wouldn’t do that to anyone.”
Jordan added: “If I don’t start defending myself, it’s going to run away. This has been going on for four months now.”
Jordan shared a clip from the podcast on his Instagram account and added screenshots from Erica’s TikTok account to it.
One was from a video of Erica rolling her eyes with the caption: “I focused on myself after the breakup and you had to go seek validation from multiple women.”
Erica has insisted the TikToks are nothing to do with Jordan, however, and hit back on his Instagram page.
She blasted: “You are genuinely clutching at straws here.
“Did I not message you 3 weeks ago to clear up that my TikTok’s were NOT about you as I’d seen you on multiple podcasts trying to run with this false narrative, so why are you still going please stop flattering yourself.
“I’ve not spoken about you or the break up once online you’re the only one still yapping on.”
She added: “Please go heal and move on.”
Jordan and Erica appeared on last year’s series of Married At First Sight and tied the knot within seconds of setting eyes on each other.
Their relationship appeared to be going well once outside of the TV experiment, but The Sun revealed they had split in February.
A source said at the time: “It was Erica that ended her marriage with Jordan… she did everything possible to make it work but sadly they struggled and in the end, she had no choice but to give up.”
Last month, Jordan spoke out and said he felt “a mug” for falling so hard and fast for Erica on the show last year.
The fitness fanatic admitted in another podcast: “I feel like a mug for falling as hard as I did.
“It’s weird because I’ve not got emotional about it for a long time because I think I’ve been holding it back a bit.”
He added: “I didn’t care about any of the fame or the opportunities or any of the money, so losing the relationship was like the be all and end-all for me.”
