‘We are so grateful to have shared so many wonderful experiences together and will cherish them forever. We thank our families for their unconditional love and support,’ they continued.
‘We wish to express our heartfelt gratitude for all the love and support that you guys have shown us throughout.’
They signed off the message: ‘With love, Tori & Jack xox’ alongside a broken heart emoji.
The news comes as a shock to fans who had watched the pair’s tumultuous yet passionate journey on the 2024 season of Married At First Sight Australia.
Despite facing intense scrutiny, fiery dinner party clashes and several commitment ceremony ultimatums, the couple had seemingly defied the odds, remaining together long after the cameras stopped rolling.
They were one of the few couples to survive the experiment and continued dating in the real world after the show’s reunion episode aired.
The couple celebrated their one year anniversary back in July last year with Tori sharing a very racy snap of her boyfriend in the shower.
Tori also shared a heartfelt gallery of photos documenting their whirlwind romance from the past year.

She reminisced about the day she took a leap of faith and boarded a plane to marry a complete stranger on national television.
‘A year ago I jumped on a plane and headed off to marry a stranger on national TV… Happy 1 year of us,’ she wrote.
Jack was quick to respond with his own touching message.
‘And I know how much you hate planes. Not the journey we were hoping for my baby however the destination was better than we could have ever imagined,’ he commented, clearly smitten.
‘Your strength, courage & fierce loyalty have completed me.’Â
The couple’s posts were met with an outpouring of love and support from their MAFS co-stars.
Andrea Thompson commented, ‘Love it guys!!! Happy anniversary… bet you’re glad you don’t have to go through that again…. xxx’ Meanwhile, Ash added, ‘How good.’
In May, Jack gushed he and Tori have never been happier after they moved in together on the Gold Coast.
‘We’re really good, going from strength to strength,’ he told Daily Mail Australia.
The couple famously fell out with their co-stars on the show over judgements about their relationship, and Jack shared some parting words with his castmates.
‘I wish everyone all the best. I don’t hold massive grudges. I feel like you just move on and get on with your life and karma will come around and get the people that deserve it,’ he said.
