Married at First Sight Australia's Jessika Power has confirmed that she has broken up with her boyfriend Connor Thompson.

The reality star, who was paired with Mick Gould in season 6 of the reality show, confirmed on her Instagram Stories (via 9Now) that her relationship with Connor is now over.

"It just didn't work; something things don't work, but life has to go on," she said. "We tried to make it work but there's a lot of growing that needs to happen for both of us and we just didn't fit together anymore.

"No-one hurt each other, nobody cheated, nobody did anything bad, it just... descended... Life sometimes doesn't go how you want it to go."

She added that the break-up was a mutual decision that was made a few days before her post. Despite the amicable nature, Jessika said she still feels incredibly upset.

"I thought it was the fairytale thing that I really wanted," she added. "But it just didn't work... I've done my fair share of crying, I've done my fair share of everything over the past few days."

Jessika currently lives in Manchester, and is hoping to go back to Australia with her dog now that she is single.

"I think today I'm a bit numb. I'm on the other side of the world, away from my family, away from my friends," she said. "If anyone has any really good advice of how to get my dog and me home, let me know."

Jessika followed this up with a post stating that she wasn't going to worry about being "too single" or "too happy", adding that: "I am going to get through this with my brain intact, if not my heart."
