While she didn’t give a reason for their split, she added that sometimes ‘life doesn’t work out the way we planned.’ 

The pair were all set to marry back in June in Vanuatu, but put their plans on hold due to the coronavirus pandemic.  

Melissa previously told Daily Mail Australia that her wedding was set to be a ‘private affair’.

‘Just the two of us, maybe some friends and family and not a massive production,’ she said.

The pair had announced their engagement back in December 2018.  

Melissa rose to fame on Married At First Sight back in early 2018 when she tied-the-knot with co-star John Robertson.

The blonde journalist said that while things didn’t work out between the pair, she recalls their time on the show rather fondly.

‘I thoroughly enjoyed myself, John and I got on amazingly,’ Melissa said.  

‘Obviously it didn’t last, but we had the best time together.’
