After Jess admitted to hitting on Nic, the pair started bickering again.

When the presenter asked Dan if he was done with his relationship, he said: “To me it is [a bit deal], there’s a lot too it for me. I wish I didn’t watch it tonight to be honest with you.”

Jess then said: “I definitely wish I’d been a bit more honest.”

When Ben Fordham asked: “Can you trust each other three months on. Can you get past it?“, Dan added: “ I don’t know. I just don’t know.”

After the awkward interview, Dan confirmed to Yahoo Lifestyle Australia that they had split up.

“Me and Jess have split, let’s get that straight. We have broken up,” Dan said.

“There’s allegations coming out that we’re still together. She’s saying we’re still together. We are not together.”

He continued: “So [on] Talking Married, we had a conversation on air. It was live.

“But basically that conversation was me, I just wanted to get to the bottom of the whole situation with her and Nic – if she flirted with him, didn’t flirt with him."

Jess is said to have been really upset after the live TV interview and ‘stormed off’, with Dan adding: “She was very upset and I was upset too watching her being upset.

"We just spoke and I was just honest with her. I said, ‘Look I don’t think I can continue this. It’s toxic, you’re not being honest with me. I can’t have a relationship with someone if they’re not honest with me’.”
