Jules Robinson often uses her social media platform as a space for anti-bullying and positivity, but her latest post in the wake of the US riots at Capitol Hill has divided fans.
Taking to Instagram on Thursday evening, Jules posted a stunning throwback photo of herself beneath the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge.
“The world at war again .. and here Downunder most of us are living our best life despite even the unpredictable dreaded Covid19 lurking around us,” she wrote in her caption.
“Just want to show appreciation for our country, and how bloody LUCKY we are in this big island called #straya. Sending goodvibes, empathy, health and peace to the world.”
Jules’ fans were quick to agree with her and praised her for the message in her post.
“We are truly BLESSED to be living here in beautiful Australia,” one wrote.
“Beautiful photo and 100% agree!” exclaimed another.
However not everyone was impressed with the message as Jules has limited comments on her post.
One called on the Married At First Sight star to speak out against the racism going on in the US since the Captiol Hill riots were handled much differently by the police when last year’s Black Lives Matter protests occurred.
“I wish you would take a public stand against racism – you spend so much time on anti bullying and yet now you have the perfect platform to speak up for those who are bullied more than any other – please respectfully it is not enough to send vague peace/love/good vibes – it is important to call it out!”
To mark husband Cam Merchant’s birthday this week, Jules shared some adorable family photos featuring the couple’s baby son, Oliver.
“Looking a little tired with spew down the front of me but all that matters is the three of us shared your birthday today @cammerchant,” she captioned a series of pics on Instagram.
“Every year I joke that we are moving Cams birthday to the 4th of June (Can we @cammerchant haha) Happy birthday to the man with a heart of gold whose love has no limits. Love you always Jules and Ollie ( who made a effort tonight with his threads )”
Jules and Cam are one of four couples matched by the Married At First Sight experts that are still together in real life.
The pair legally married in November 2019 and welcomed their son in October 2020 but Cam admitted that his now wife wasn’t his physical type when he first laid eyes on her.
“I was way too short and Jules was red-haired, curvaceous, tall and I thought ‘This is a stitch up here!’ But once we met and sort of locked eyes, there was this comfortable warmness that came over and all the judgement went out the window,” he explained on The Babble podcast in September.
He added: “We were able to put all that s*** aside and see what’s actually on the inside and we fell in love that way.”
