MAFS’ Jules Robinson reveals she bought her own engagement ring BEFORE she met husband Cameron Merchant – but still wears the ‘fake ring’ he gave her on the show

Married At First Sight star Jules Robinson bought her own engagement ring a year before meeting her husband Cameron Merchant.

The 38-year-old revealed on Instagram on Tuesday she’d purchased the ring when she was single about 12 months before going on the Nine show in 2019.

Jules also explained that the rings she and Cameron exchanged at their televised wedding had fake diamonds, but she still wears hers for sentimental reasons.

Jules then spoke about her other ring – the one she’d bought herself.
