Jacqui knew MAFS producers would give her the 'crazy woman' edit. She had a Plan B.

The 2025 season of Married At First Sight has already delivered its fair share of drama, and one of the highlights (or lowlights?) has been Ryan and Jacqui's roller-coaster relationship.

From heated arguments, to loved-up moments, the pair have experienced the full spectrum of emotions during their time in the experiment. Not to mention, some seemingly dodgy editing which has made for a confusing storyline.

Despite the fact the show is still ongoing, Jacqui has already confirmed she is absolutely not with Ryan anymore. And, to be honest, are we really surprised?

While MAFS contestants usually keep tight-lipped about their relationship status while the show airs, Jacqui has thrown the rule book out the window. She's taken her Instagram account hostage, refusing to hand it over to Channel Nine.

But with the keys to her own account, she's shared several juicy revelations that have given us some major spoilers and behind-the-scenes gossip.

In a series of Instagram stories, Jacqui shared that, while filming, she had a feeling she was going to be given the "crazy woman edit" — so she had a plan. In a new post, she revealed that she actually filmed vlogs during her time on the show in order to keep track of what was happening.

"I actually have a diary cam taken during filming of me saying, 'I don't think they're going to air Ryan's behaviour because it's not appropriate for TV because it's way too rough and controlling and disgusting. I hope they don't just air me crying because I'm going to look f***ing insane'," Jacqui said in the video.

She revealed she would be releasing the videos from her time on MAFS in the coming weeks.

Watching the show back, Jacqui, like many before her, called out the editors for taking conversations out of context and cutting out Ryan's poor behaviour in order to make her look "insane".

"Almost 90% of what you see on TV is out of context because the behaviour I was responding to was cut," Jacqui said. "They did catch him yelling at me and things."

Jacqui has previously spoken out about the editing of the show, calling her portrayal a "highly edited fictional storyline".

"I agree — my character makes no sense — that's not my fault, blame the editors!" she explained. "More than happy to spill the tea so you can get to know the real me and my story!"

In the same Instagram Story, she confirmed that she — spoiler alert — had moved on with a new boyfriend.

"I am ready to settle down and have babies (4-5 kiddos) ANNNNDDDDD I am currently in a relationship with a person who has exactly what I asked for — someone kind, considerate, a great man, and intelligent," she wrote.

So that's that. It looks like things are officially finished between Jacqui and Ryan, given she's now in a "loving long term relationship."

A source close to production had told Daily Mail Australia that Ryan and Jacqui became one of the most polarising couples to ever appear on the show, with their relationship marked by constant conflict.

"Every dinner party, every commitment ceremony, they're either at each other's throats or dragging the rest of the group into their mess," the insider said.

And we can confirm, that seems to be exactly the case, with Jacqui and Ryan fighting almost every episode, including when other contestants are present. Remember Teejay and Beth's wedding? A mess, to say the least.

But we're happy to hear Jacqui has found happiness beyond the show!
