Married At First Sight UK legend takes brutal swipe at show ex – as new series’ first couple is revealed

A MARRIED At First Sight UK legend has taken a brutal swipe at his show ex as the new series’ first couple is revealed.

Just six months after splitting from show star Erica Roberts, 26, personal trainer Jordan Gayle has debuted his latest relationship on social media.

Taking to Instagram last week, Jordan, 27, shared a slew of snaps with Melissa Golik, 32, who moonlights as a DJ too.

And now he appears to have made a dig at Erica by responding to a fan comment beneath a photo of himself and new girl Melissa.

Sharing a string of snaps with the blonde beauty, Jordan captioned his photo dump: “Life with you,” followed by heart and lock emojis and an Australian flag.

And in the comments someone wrote: “Much prettier,” to which Jordan replied with an eyes emoji and liked the comment.

A fan who noticed Jordan’s reply wrote: “the fact you liked that comment is disgusting and shows who you are.”

In the photos Jordan and Melissa look very happy with each other as they eat sushi, drink wine and pose for snaps.

Jordan couldn’t keep his eyes off the beauty as they enjoyed a night out in Chinatown.

Just last month, the reality star reignited a very bitter feud with Erica, accusing her of recording ’14 TikToks about him’.

It comes after the pair got married on MAFS UK, but were unable to make things work in the real world.

Jordan hit back at his ex in a podcast and claimed she has ‘dragged his name through the mud’ with her videos.

Erica, however, clapped back and insisted her videos are NOT about him.

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.”

Jordan previously 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.”

Meanwhile fans can expect Married At First Sight back on screens soon, and the first couple have now been announced.

The Sun can exclusively reveal dog walker Kristina, 30, and mechanic Kieran, 28, are the first couple to tie the knot.

In a first look clip, cheeky Newcastle lad Kieran slips in a pair of gross false teeth before his wife-to-be makes her way down the aisle.

He raises a finger to his lips to the families gathered so that they don’t ruin his prank, and he anxiously waits to meet his new partner.

Kristina, wearing a traditional white dress, is walked down the aisle by her dad, and her face drops as she spots the protruding gnashers.

She can barely bring herself to look at Kieran who enthusiastically asks: “Are you alright, are you ok? What’s your name?”

The voiceover reveals Kristina’s real feelings as she exclaims: “These teeth. What the f**k?”

It’s certainly a bold move and a show first.
