Married At First Sight star Shannon Adams’ ex-fiancée Jamea Drake has broken her silence after confirming she has rekindled her romance with the 30-year-old personal trainer
‘Guys, I am the ex, You can all continue to comments about the people and who ON THE show, god I don’t care what you say about Shannon either he signed up for it and put himself there, but PLEASE leave me out of the negativity,’ she began.
‘I DID NOT sign up on the show, I didn’t go on and I am literally collateral damage.
‘I have NO benefit in being in the media or put there, and truthfully not my cup of tea I could no give a hoot about my followers or socials.

‘I am a mum, I am person with real feelings. Plus my life is HELLA stressful as it, this is my REAL life and not a show.’

It comes after Daily Mail Australia revealed that Adams is now back with his ex after things didn’t work out with Caitlin.

Despite splitting from his ex Jamea in mid-2021, the pair kept in touch during filming last year and once he was back in his home town of Cairns in December, they decided to give their relationship another go.
Sources close to the couple, who are parents to four-year-old daughter Milli, reveal they never really got over each other and always kept in touch, even during times when they weren’t together.
‘They were together for about seven years… it was very on and off, but they are happy now,’ one friend said.
‘I think Shannon tried to get over Jamea by going on MAFS, but he had second thoughts as soon as he married Caitlin.
‘He was upset after the wedding and wanted out right away.’

‘Shan and Jamea kept in contact for the sake of [their daughter] Milli and he would try to Facetime her every day,’ the source added.
‘He had planned to put in one hundred per cent into his relationship with Caitlin, but just couldn’t because he was still invested in Jamea.’
Shannon would regularly sneak away from Caitlin to call his ex during filming of Nine’s social experiment last year.

A friend said Shannon’s appearance on MAFS ‘sparked a wave of emotions’ and inspired them to ‘give things another go… for each other, not just for their little girl’.
Jamea was apparently ‘deeply moved’ by Shannon telling her he still loved her, and they have been inseparable since getting back together.
They are now determined to make it work this time around, and are ‘taking things slow and steady,’ the pal added.

On Tuesday’s episode of Married At First Sight, Caitlin caught Shannon taking a secret phone call from his ex.
He didn’t even try to hide his feelings, telling his wife he still loved Jamea but didn’t want to lead either of them on.
‘You were on the phone to your ex, so I just want to check where your head is at and where we are at moving forward,’ Caitlin asked him.

‘I honestly don’t know,’ a confused Shannon replied.
Caitlin admitted she had concerns about their future together, which were compounded by Shannon placing her fourth in the wife-ranking photo challenge.
‘I’ve come from a toxic relationship of seven years, on and off, a break-up we had was 12 months ago,’ he explained.
