Ex-fiancée of MAFS star Jake Edwards breaks her silence since her cheating claims were made public

The ex-fiancée of Married At First Sights star Jake Edwards has broken her silence after publicly accusing him of cheating on her.  

Jake, who married Perth businesswoman Beck Zemek on Monday night’s season premiere, was slammed by ex Paige McCuskey in brutal Instagram posts. 

Paige took aim at Jake as she said she wouldn’t be watching this season, adding she won’t be ‘wasting’ her energy with it. 

‘I am not watching MAFS and have no intention to. I don’t want to waste my energy on it so please stop sending me everything you see,’ she wrote.  

Paige explained she had edited her captions almost a year ago with her appearing to be over her old fiancé. 

‘I edited those captions 12 months ago because I don’t believe in deleting photos from my past, it’s that simple,’ she wrote.

Paige hit the headlines with the captions following Jake’s wedding to Perth businesswoman Beck Zemek on Monday night.        

While Jake’s official bio states he simply ‘fell out of love’ with Paige, she has claimed he was actually deceitful and cheated on her during their four-year romance.  

Paige edited the captions of several photos of the couple in happier times, adding unflattering remarks about Jake and his alleged behaviour during their relationship.

A post from August 2017 showed Paige and Jake sharing a tender kiss. 

The original caption read ‘LOVE’, but Paige has since updated it to ‘Edit: deceit.’  

She also edited the caption beneath a photo of the former couple kissing at a friend’s wedding in November 2017.

It was originally captioned ‘my rock’ but now states ‘Edit: ehhkkkk also other people’s rocks’.

Elsewhere, the blonde recently tweaked the caption beneath a photo of herself and Jake posing in a car.  

‘Amazing night with my boy doing footy the fancy way. So good to have you home,’ the original post read.

Paige has since added: ‘Edit: Who knows what you were doing when you were away?’

Perhaps the most brutal comment, however, was left beneath a photo of the pair snorkelling.  

‘Should [have] held him under the water,’ she wrote. 

Paige and Jake dated for about three years before getting engaged during a romantic trip to Fiji in December 2018.

They had planned to wed in December 2019, but broke up weeks before walking down the aisle.  

Although Jake didn’t specifically acknowledge his-ex’s Instagram captions, speaking on Nova 96.9’s Fitzy & Wippa show on Monday, he said: ‘We split 12 months before the show.’

‘We haven’t been in contact at all and I don’t think they’ll be any need for me to reach out. The reason [I didn’t tell her I was doing MAFS] was because I know the relationship we had at the time.’

‘I was convinced she’d make me feel really terrible for doing something like this. So I probably would have pulled out.’   

It comes after a friend of Paige’s told the So Dramatic! podcast she was ‘devastated’ to learn her ex-fiancé would be appearing on Married At First Sight just months after he was supposed to marry her.

‘Who could possibly get ready for a wedding when he was supposed to be marrying the love of his life nine months prior? It’s just selfish. Paige is devastated,’ they said.

‘I can’t believe he would go on a show so quickly after what he did to her.’

Married At First Sight continues Thursday 7.30pm on Channel Nine
