Married at First Sight UK stars Jordan Gayle and Erica Roberts have confirmed they’ve ended their relationship.
Posting an update on her Instagram Stories, Erica confirmed their break-up with a simple black and white text post that shared her sadness she Jordan couldn’t announce the news on their own terms. She also insisted there is no “bad blood” between them.
“It’s disappointing that Jordan and I weren’t able to share this on our own terms due to the press leak but we would just like to confirm that we are no longer together,” she wrote.
“This hasn’t been an easy decision for us both as we really wanted to make our relationship work. I truly wish him all the best and there is no bad blood between us.”

Erica and Jordan were matched up during season 8 of the E4 reality dating show and, despite struggling with communication issues during the experiment, made it to the final vows and opted to recommit to each other.
However, cracks appeared to show in their relationship after the show ended and Jordan was forced to deny rumours he had kissed someone else.
“The accusation of me cheating on Erica is 100 per cent false and clearly coming from someone who has a malicious agenda to try and ruin our relationship,” he said in a statement.
The couple then got into an explosive argument during the MAFS reunion as Erica confronted Jordan over the rumours, to which he responded: “She tried to kiss me, but I pushed her away.”

News of Erica and Jordan’s separation comes just weeks after fellow MAFS stars Peggy Rose and Georges Berthonneau announced their break-up on Valentine’s Day.
“I’m so sorry I’ve been quiet on socials everybody but there’s a reason for my silence. Me and Georges are no longer together and I’m absolutely heartbroken,” Peggy wrote on her Instagram Stories.
Georges responded with his own statement, sharing: “Wasn’t expecting a statement from Peggy regarding this situation. I’m heartbroken by our breakup and also trying to come to terms with life without Peggy.”
