Earlier this week, Jules Robinson grabbed headlines when her MAFS co-star, Melissa Lucarelli, leaked text messages showing the fan-favourite dumping her as a bridesmaid ahead of her wedding to Cameron Merchant.

In a nutshell, a “shocked” Melissa accused her former bestie of using her for publicity, claiming Jules was disingenuous when she invited her to be a part of her real-life bridal party during the final episode of Married at First Sight.
When Mel questioned why the bubbly redhead had a sudden change of heart, Jules allegedly texted her saying: “Just cause I said it on a show doesn’t meat (sic) I have to do it.”
OUCH!
Since the scandal unfolded, the unlucky in love contestant— who endured an ill-fated marriage to Dino Hira on the controversial dating experiment— revealed Jules has cut ties with her, ceasing all contact.
As the whole situation becomes more convoluted, last season’s most hated contestant, Jessika Power, has weighed in on the drama, siding with Mel in an unexpected yet blistering Instagram tirade.
Responding to an article about the saucy scandal, Jessika wrote: “I actually have to back Mel on this. Throughout filming, Jules would say Martha [Kalifatidis] and I were only there for social media and endorsements, but since the show ended it seems that’s all Jules is for also.
“It’s really sad to see that Jules dropped Mel as a bridesmaid but not surprising, it seems everything that woman does these days is calculated and beneficial for her and her only.
Interestingly, Jessika isn’t the only reality TV star who has a bone to pick with Jules. Earlier this year, Martha Kalifatidis said during a brutal YouTube video that Jules was “nothing but a bully”. She also claimed Jules was so “self-righteous” on the show, that she “was the reason for the divide between a lot of the girls”.
“I found Jules to be the biggest bully,” she began. “I felt like she really iced Jess, Ines and I out and I feel like she was the reason for the divide between a lot of the girls. She was so self-righteous and I just feel like she made the other women who did want to be friends with us and who did hang out with us, almost ashamed to.”
