The former MAFS bride shared that her new beau had been a strong support for her during her recent stay in a mental health facility, adding,” He was a friend to me throughout my hospital stay, checking in on me all the time which meant the absolute world to me during that extremely difficult period in my life… I lost my friends and my life really changed a lot.”

“The best thing to come out of all of that is him.”

Taking to her Instagram shortly after she gave fans a bit more insight into the couple’s relationship, explaining the early days of their relationship.

“Around about 6 months ago life as I knew it fell apart right in front of my eyes. I haven’t spoken in depth just yet about the state of my mental health at that time; it was dark( very soon 👀) JB and I were just friends; boxing and coffee buddies. But this man right here, came and visited me in hospital every week, brought me snacks, held pads for me 🥊 so I could keep up my fitness. 5 months later, I’m one less lonely girl and have my very own JB,” she wrote alongside a video of the couple at a skatepark.

“Every day that I’m with you is the greatest compliment I could ever receive. I’m so blessed to have you in my life,” her new beau added in the comment section.

After a year and a half together, Dom announced the pair had split in May 2024, writing to her Instagram Stories, “I’ve needed a bit of time off socials to work through a breakup. I miss engaging with you all through my social media channels, but the last few weeks have been super intense.”

News of the couple’s split came six months after Dom revealed on her Sit With Us podcast that she and Jack had contemplated starting a family together, with Dom telling co-host Ella Ding, “Being in this relationship and feeling the way I do with my person, and being at this stage in my life, it’s like I know I’m ready. I just know he’s the person I want to do that with.”

Andre Zitt (2022)

In late 2022, Dom spoke openly about her Euro-summer romance with her summer fling Andre Zitt.

Referring to him as ‘Mr Napoli’ in an effort to maintain his anonymity, Dom confirmed the pair had split during a September 2022 episode of her Sit With Us podcast.

“My summer romance hasn’t played out how I guess I wanted it to play out,” she shared, adding, This whole Italian love affair has been amazing and I’ll remember it for the rest of my life.”

“I think I’ve really just reached this point where I’m okay — if I want to have casual sex, I’ll have casual sex. I’m actually really happy on my own and focusing on me, my own mental health, my life and my career.”

Sharing a snap to celebrate Christmas, fans were quick to point out how much the partially cropped man in the picture resembled the former MAFS contestant.

“Is… that… Anthony?” one fan wrote, with another replying, “I was thinking the same, Anthony from the show 😮😍.”

Despite the fan speculation, rumours of Dom and Anthony’s romance were quickly quashed after fans uncovered that he was still happily loved up with his girlfriend Kate.
