Josh and Amelia often share loved-up updates on their respective social media accounts, but Amelia revealed in a candid Instagram post that not everything is always as picture-perfect as it seems.
"I always have this lingering sense of guilt and responsibility to remind you that no relo is as perfect as they seem through social media. I always try to be as honest with my personal life as possible on the gram, but still not overshare EVERYTHING!" she said in her caption.
"I know this period has put a lot of strain and pressure on so many relationships. So many couples are dealing and working through issues atm. And hell, we were too. Josh and I are back on track now, we have pushed through and become even stronger and closer. But wow there were soooo many hurdles through this period hehe that’s all," she added.
Meanwhile, Josh Packham and Anna McEvoy were the quiet achievers of the second season and we thought they would be the second success story of the franchise.
Whilst much of the attention during the show was focused on unlikely pairing Adam and Cartier, Josh and Anna went from strength to strength before finally winning the competition.
"Obviously, Josh and I really didn't think we had any chance of winning because we weren't in the original cast and normally the winners are an original cast member. So when our names were called out we were like 'Oh my god! What's happened?'" Anna explained after their win.
The couple later announced that they'd moved in together in Melbourne, Anna's hometown, whilst coronavirus restrictions were still in place. But a few months later in October, the couple announced they'd ended things.
“It is with great sadness that Josh and I are going our separate ways,” Anna posted on Instagram.
“I know that so many of you are invested in our relationship but please know we did everything we could to make it work.
“It’s extremely difficult to break up with someone who you still love but it is the right thing to do.”
Josh shared his own Instagram Story about the break up, writing: “We have had an amazing journey but unfortunately sometimes relationships don’t work out and two people simply grow apart.”
“I am incredibly grateful for the time we have shared.”
