MAFS Aus: Jackson's agent says kiss was 'set up' as he's caught 'cheating' on Olivia
He was filmed kissing another girl
Fans of series nine of hit show Married At First Sight Australia are still very much invested in the lives of the cast, especially the likes of Jackson Lonie, Olivia Frazer, Ella Ding, Domenica Calarco and Brent Vitiello.
And as the cast adapt to their new lives together outside of the experiment, it looks like there could be a little trouble in paradise for official couple Jackson and Olivia.
Despite being one of the only couples on the show who didn't have any major issues together throughout, new footage emerged online over the weekend, showing Jackson kissing another girl during a boozy night out in Melbourne.
Now, just hours after Jackson was spotted being picked up by a glum-faced Olivia at Sydney airport, the pair's agent has spoken about the kiss.
Max Markson, who represents both Jackson and Olivia, appeared on Monday's episode of Australian radio show The Kyle and Jackie O Show, where he confessed Jackson couldn't remember the kiss the morning after.
He said of the incident: "I think it was a set-up.
"The girl set it up with some of her friends, to video it and all that sort of stuff. My understanding of it is he had no memories of the kiss the next morning."
As Jackson and Olivia are yet to publicly speak of the scandal, Max seems to think they will be able to work things out, adding: "I believe they will get back together. It's just a sad situation."
Check out which couples from series 9 of MAFS: Australia are still together:
Olivia and Jackson
Although Olivia Frazer and Jackson Lonie probably had the least issues out of all the couples in the experiment, Olivia's ongoing conflict with Dom certainly caused a few towards the end, with Jackson expressing his dislike for Olivia's behaviour.
During the final vows, Olivia confessed her love for Jackson, which made him very emotional.
Despite Jackson airing a few concerns he has about Olivia during his final vows, which left Olivia stood very nervous, the pair left as an official couple, with Jackson also using the 'L' word.
However, the pair's romance took a rocky turn in May 2022, when Jackson was filmed kissing another girl whilst out in Melbourne. Olivia broke her silence admitting she was heartbroken and embarrassed, but the couple remained together.
That was until August 2022, when Jackson and Olivia released a statement to announce they've split.
Domenica and Jack
Just like every couple on series nine, Domenica Calarco and Jack Millar certainly had ups and downs, but when Dom found herself under constant attack from co-star Olivia, the pair proved to be a great team, having each other's backs throughout the experiment.
During a very rainy final vows, both Dom and Jack admitted they wanted to give their romance a go on the outside, but after rocking up to the reunion separately, Jack confirmed the pair had mutually called it quits after their romance had fizzled out post-show.
Despite this, Dom and Jack remain the very best of friends, and Jack is now dating Love Island Australia star Courtney Stubbs.
Ella and Mitch
Ella Ding and Mitch Eynaud were one of the strongest couples throughout the MAFS experiment, admitting early on they were willing to try out long-distance once the show was over.
Mitch admitted halfway through he wanted to leave the experiment early to continue their romance in the real world. However, after being persuaded to stay by the experts and his fellow contestants, Mitch chose to stay and his relationship with Ella seemed to go from strength to strength.
As the couple went into their final vows, Ella documented her doubts about Mitch, but admitted she was willing to take the risk to continue their relationship. But what happened next left viewers in complete shock…
During Mitch's final vows, the 26-year-old dumped Ella, saying he needed space to think about their future, admitting he couldn't give her the commitment she wants.
Although the pair turned up to the reunion show together, with Mitch admitting the pair were 'dating', things have taken a sour turn since.
Mitch and Ella are no longer together, with rumours now rife that Mitch is dating co-star Tamara, with the couple being spotted out and about together several times.
Ella went on to get to know co-star Brent, with the pair enjoying a romantic trip to Cairns together and even sharing a kiss! However, that soon fizzled out and Ella was rumoured to be dating Made In Chelsea Miles Nazaire, with Ella even appearing on the E4 series.
Brent and Tamara
Tamara Djordjevic and Brent Vitiello's marriage didn't get off to the best of starts, with Tamara constantly putting him down for his career choices. Despite this, Brent and Tamara seemed to turn things around during the home stays week, before another explosive fight during the final dinner party caused another stir.
Going into the final vow ceremony, which turned out to be one of the fieriest in MAFS Australia history, fans of the show didn't have much hope for these two, but what happened left viewers with open mouths.
Although Tamara tried to end things on a positive note, not holding back, Brent called out Tamara for her 'true colours', calling her 'vindictive, spiteful, and self-absorbed', admitting he doesn't think she took any responsibly for the demise of their relationship, before dropping his que cards and storming off set, admitting he never wants to see Tamara again.
In a huge turn of events, reports are now rife that Tamara is dating MAFS co-star Mitch Eynaud, with Mitch's ex wife Ella Ding telling Australian press: "The word is that they are together, and they have been for a while. That's what we've all been told. And the speculation is that it's been going on for quite a long time, and potentially even before filming."
Despite this, Tamara has said her and Mitch and just good friends.
Although he enjoyed a number of dates with Ella, Brent went on to date fashion model Taylor Davey.
Selina and Cody
Despite admitting he didn't find her attractive at the start of the experiment, Cody Bromley and Selina Chhaur seemed to work through their issues, with the pair becoming closer and closer as the experiment went on, with Cody even starting to show his wife the affection she was asking for.
During the final vows, Cody admitted he wanted to build a future with Selina, revealing he wanted to continue their relationship outside of the experiment, with the pair even planning to buy a house together and go travelling.
HOWEVER, Cody revealed he'd called off their marriage during the reunion show, leaving Selina heartbroken.
Since then, Selina has been heavily linked with fellow contestant Al Perkins, but she's since strongly denied these claims. Selina has since admitted she found 'self love' on the hit show.
Samantha and Al
At the age of 25, Al Perkins was one of the youngest ever stars to appear on the show, being matched with 26-year-old Samantha Moitzi.
Both Samantha and the experts called out Al for his 'immature behaviour' at times throughout the experiment, with Samantha admitting she would have liked her husband to be a little older.
Despite this, the pair tried to make their relationship work throughout the process, before leaving as friends during the final commitment ceremony, with Samantha jokingly telling Al to ring her in 10 years time.
In November 2022, Al confirmed he was going on Love Island Australia as a bombshell.
Jess and Daniel
Another couple who didn't work out was Jessica Seracino and Daniel Holmes, with Jess actually writing leave during the couple's first commitment ceremony. However, after Daniel chose to stay, the pair had to continue...
That was until Jess made the decision to walk away from the show, leaving Daniel single.
Carolina and Dion
Carolina Santos and Dion Giannarelli were late arrivals to the experiment, but their relationship certainly brought with it drama.
When she eventually showed up to the wedding after being three hours late, Carolina revealed to Dion she has a 16-year-old son on their wedding day. It had looked like these two were going to hit it off, but that quickly changed.
Carolina repeatedly expressed her disappointment that she didn't enjoy the same things as Dion, such as running and going to the gym, and she later started an affair with fellow contestant Daniel Holmes.
Check out our next slide to see the explosive way Dion discovered the news...
Carolina and Daniel
In one of the most dramatic moments in MAFS Australia history Carolina Santos and Daniel Holmes exposed their 'affair' during a commitment ceremony, storming into filming hand-in-hand, much to the shock of their fellow contestants and the experts.
Unbelievably, the pair asked if they could re-join the experiment as a new couple, leading to a mass walkout from the cast. Of course, this request was denied by the experts, meaning the pair had to leave the show.
However, Caroline and Daniel continued their relationship outside of the experiment, and even moved in together. Daniel told Nine Network in April 2022: "We are in love, we live together and we are just being ourselves."
But just months later in August 2022, Daniel confirmed he'd split from Carolina, despite Carolina shutting down the claims just a week earlier.
Selin and Anthony
It had initially looked like the experts had hit gold with Selin and Anthony, with the pair expressing positive signs on their wedding day. However, things quickly fizzled out during their honeymoon, with the couple deciding to leave in week three.
Holly and Andrew
It certainly wasn't love at first sight for Holly Greenstein and Andrew Davis! Things quickly turned sour between the two, with Andrew storming out of a dinner party in week two, after telling his wife he felt more intimacy on a one night stand.
Things then got even uglier when Andrew seemingly turned the group against Holly, with the pair ending their romance early on in the experiment.
In the reunion, Holly revealed she is now dating somebody new.
Kate and Matt
Kate Laidlaw and Matt Ridley were late arrivals into the experiment, with the original cast attending their nuptials.
It was obvious to see Matt had more feelings for Kate than she did for him. And despite a positive few days away together, the pair both chose to leave during the third commitment ceremony.
Despite Olivia's issues with co-star Domenica on the ninth series of the hit dating show, her romance with Jackson was very smooth throughout the experiment, with the couple quickly dropping the 'L' bomb.
After making it through their final vows, Jackson and Olivia moved in together and had looked to be one of the strongest couples to ever grace the show.
At the time of publications, neither Jackson or Olivia have publicly spoken out, or posted on social media.
