The ex-girlfriend of Married At First sight’s ‘pickiest groom’ Jesse Burford has spoken out about their relationship.

Jesse, 30, polarised viewers on Tuesday’s episode as he rattled off an outrageous list of his dating deal-breakers, which he described as ‘icks’.

Melbourne radio announcer Kat Markey told the Fifi, Fev & Nick show on Wednesday she’d briefly dated Jesse, and she was all too familiar with his nit-picking antics.

‘He was really picky and it didn’t last long. And I knew he was not in it for the long run,’ said Kat, who met Jesse when she worked for Hit 92.9 Perth a few years ago.

‘He’s very confident. He knew what he wanted [in our relationship, and] what he didn’t want,’ she said. 

Kat then took a series of blistering swipes at her ex, accusing him of being fame hungry and trying to use her industry connections to further his career.

‘He used to hit me up about radio-related stuff. So I don’t think he’s actually there for a girlfriend; I think he’s looking for a bit of a [media] gig,’ she said.

‘He just likes the sound of his own voice, to be honest.’

A producer asked him: ‘Do you get “the ick” quite easily?’

‘Uh, yes, I do,’ he replied. ‘It’s funny you ask that, because I actually brought a list.’

Jesse, who is a marriage celebrant, then listed several issues he has with modern women, starting with: ‘Girls who are addicted to their phones.’

‘Social media, motivational quotes, hustle and grinding. Who do you think you are?’ he continued.

‘Any girl who calls me honey, sweetie… You’re not my auntie!’

‘Chicks who are always talking, who always interrupt you,’ he continued.

‘Any girl who starts their sentence with ‘Oh my god, babe!’ Star sign chicks…’

'Star sign chicks' was a major ick for Jesse. Unfortunately, his MAFS bride is into astrology

Jesse continued to ramble with more turn-offs, like ‘mirror selfies’, girls who leave ‘dirt on the mirror’, and girls who take ‘gym photos’.

He also listed ‘butt, boob, bikini’ which may be referring to other types of photos.

Claire revealed she was passionate about astrology and crystals, two things Jesse loathes.

‘If I get the “ick” I can start to find everything unbelievably annoying,’ he later told producers.

Jesse began to get more and more ‘icked’ by the little things Claire would say.

Claire thought she’d be able to break the ice by gifting her husband with a crystal that symbolises a ‘transformative’ era in people’s lives.

The offering appeared to change Jesse’s mindset and he started to come to terms with Claire’s interests that didn’t align with his own.

‘Is the crystal stuff for me? Well, no. But I’m not gonna hate on someone else’s passion. Especially my brand new wife,’ he told producers.

‘If it means something to you, it means something to me,’ he said to Claire.

But Jesse’s nitpicking ultimately knocked the couple off course when he told his wife to ‘shush’.

The pair were at the airport ready to depart for their honeymoon in the Whitsundays when Jesse told Claire to be quiet ‘a few times’.

An upset Claire began to second-guess everything she was saying, and how she said it.

‘One day in. If you’re already shushing me, you’re going to have a hard time ahead of you, buddy boy,’ she said.

Married At First Sight continues Wednesday at 7.30pm on Channel Nine and 9Now
