Safiyya Vorajee recalls being physically assaulted and manipulated by toxic ex
Safiyya Vorajee has spoken to Married At First sight star, Paul C Brunson, about a past abusive relationship in which she claims she was physically assaulted and manipulated Safiyya Vorajee has bravely spoken out about a toxic ex - who she met before Ashley Cain - on Paul C Brunson's We Need to Talk podcast. Safiyya, 37, who tragically lost the daughter she shared with Ashely - Azaylia - to leukaemia when she was eight months old in 2021, said she was initially "love bombed" by her ex, who she stayed with for four years, until things took a very serious turn. Telling Paul she 'really wanted to be in a relationship' before her ex began 'constantly criticising her', Safiyya said: "I'm like: 'Oh my god like, yes, I found this guy.' But then he started chipping away at me mentally without me even noticing. I just thought everything I was doing was wrong." Holding back tears, the dental nurse then shockingly claimed that her ex "whacked" her in the face after a disagreement in the car. Safiyya continued: "We were driving in the car, obviously I can't remember what the conversation was about or disagreement was about, but then he just whacked me straight in the face and then I stopped the car he opened the car and pushed me out the car jumped into the driver's seat and then I was just left and he drove off with my car." Despite Safiyya's mum "begging" her not to go back to her ex after she found out about the violent incident, Safiyya admitted she returned and stayed with the man for four years. Explaining that he told her how sorry he was and that he loved her, Safiyya said it wasn't until she was approached by another woman, who told her that she too was seeing the man, that she found the strength to leave. She shared: "I didn't go mad at her. I didn't do anything. I said to her: "Will you do me one favour? I've been in the worst place of my life for the last four years please can you come with me to my house and say this in front of him because no matter what you send to me what you give me he will manipulate me and tell me it's me going crazy." After pretending not to recognise the woman, Safiyya's ex "smashed all the kitchen cupboards" Safiyya said after she left the house, with the woman, who she "took safely back to her car." However, Safiyya returned to the house as she continued: "As soon as that door opened I literally thought he was coming to come and attack me in fact he was the opposite he'd sat there and told me it was because I work too much and he didn't have anybody to spend time with and I was like 'Wow wow', I am not buying this anymore." Safiyya ended up calling the Samaritans where she said she talked to a volunteer for two hours before finally leaving the home she shared with her ex, getting an injunction against him and giving a statement to the police for her "protection". When asked why she thought she stayed in the relationship for so long, the candid star heartbreakingly concluded: "I thought control meant love and the crazy thing about it is, I just can't believe that's what I thought love was."

Katie Price breaks silence on JJ Slater split claims - 'I don't feel free'
Katie Price has set the record straight on her relationship with Married At First star, JJ Slater, after the pair were rumoured to have called it quits Katie Price has broken her silence on claims she's split with her boyfriend, JJ Slater. The glamour icon, 46 and Married At First Sight star, 31, have been dating for more than a year, however fans thought the couple may have secretly called it a day after noticing the pair had not appeared on each other's Instagram for a while as well as not spending Christmas together. Last week, Katie's rep told the Mirror the couple were very much together and "continuing as normal". However, on Married At First Sight guru Paul latest podcast, the Pricey made a cryptic comment about her relationship. When told by Paul she should feel "free" and "happy" with a partner, she said: "I've never had that in any relationship. Never had any of them. "And JJ, he's the most kind, genuine, easygoing, chilled person. But do I feel my happiest and do I feel free? No. It's not a reflection on him, maybe that's what I need to change for myself." Paul, who is one of the experts on Married At First Sight UK, told her: "You need some time to yourself because you have to experience what freedom feels like." Katie explained: "Freedom to me is like when I took my kids to Thailand for a month, just me and them. We felt free. Just little life experiences, seeing things, taking them to little adventures." The OnlyFans star, who has been married three times, then added: "I just don't want to answer to anyone, I want them to fit in with me." Speaking of her concerns for her relationship with JJ, she continued: "When you meet someone, it's natural to want to be with them all the time. Then the mistakes I've made in the past are then you're with them all the time. "It becomes literally 24/7 because I've never been out with someone who's had a nine to five job." She went on: "They've always had a job where, I suppose it's adaptable that they come with me. So in the beginning, that's all nice, but then you get into the habit of they're about too much, to the point you start not seeing your friends, because you're with them all the time, and then you get into this situation where they're so used to being with you all the time that then when you do say, 'I'm gonna go and see a friend,' it doesn't seem normal because you haven't done it. "So I'm a bit worried that I've got like that with JJ." Despite her misgivings about spending too much time with JJ, in her recent podcast with her sister, Sophie, Katie admitted that the reality star was "The One". It hasn't always been easy for the couple, though, as the former Married at First Sight contestant got a rough ride from his future brother-in-law. Harry Brooks, who is married to Katie's sister Sophie. When JJ, who shacked up with Ella Morgan, on Married At First Sight, after failing to click with his telly bride, Bianca, into the family group chat, Harry mused: 'What… another one?"

MAFS star Lucinda Light slammed for supporting JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes after Dance Moms star brutally dumped her Aussie girlfriend
Married At First Sight star Lucinda Light has been forced to backtrack on her recent Instagram post with controversial Celebrity Big Brother duo JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes, amid mounting criticism over JoJo's brutal dumping of her Australian partner Kath Ebbs. Lucinda was all smiles as she posed for a backstage photo alongside the Celebrity Big Brother UK finalists on Monday, amid mounting speculation that the pair could be more than 'platonic soulmates.' The 43-year-old, who skyrocketed to fame on last year's MAFS season, shared a photo with JoJo and Chris to Instagram after appearing on British chat show This Morning, and praised them for being 'bold and brave'. On Sunday, JoJo's girlfriend Kath Ebbs confirmed that they and JoJo are no longer together after the Dance Moms star called things off at the CBB afterparty. 'Just met these two radiant humans today at @thismorning for the first time! I didn't watch Big Brother, and... I was not across the breakup and their dynamic,' Lucinda began in her original caption. 'It's bold and brave going on a TV show like this and putting yourself out there. Congrats on making your way through and now to navigate it all on the out. Bless this mess. @itsjojosiwa & @chrishughesofficial!' she continued in her caption. 'Glad I got to say a cheeky hello today. May we all learn our lessons. May we walk humbly. May we forgive ourselves and each other. May we empathise. May we grow,' she finished the caption. As Lucinda shared the post to her Stories, she shared some additional words: 'Platonic friendship love. You [two] are gorgeous.' JoJo, 21, returned to her native Los Angeles on Tuesday, after a whirlwind press tour with Chris in the UK and shared Lucinda's post to her 11.2million Instagram followers. Fans were quick to criticise the MAFS star's judgement on the relationship between Chris and JoJo and questioned whether the post was out of touch with the online support for Kath in Australia. 'Lucindaslight-ly out of touch with how much damage these two have publicly created,' one commented, prompting Lucinda to respond. The reality star said that she hasn't seen any of the CBB series and wasn't up-to-date with JoJo's relationship status when she met her backstage. 'I'm not over any of it,' Lucinda replied. Fans were quick to criticise the MAFS star's judgement on the relationship between Chris and JoJo and questioned whether the post was out of touch with the support for Kath in Australia 'Lucinda you're the best, but these two aren't platonic,' another fan commented with a laugh-crying emoji. 'Oh Lucinda I love you, but I cannot support these pair, they're aren't good energy!' agreed another. One fan simply wrote, 'Team Kath.' The comments weren't all negative, though, with Sophie Monk also showing support for JoJo, who rocked an edgy look in a cropped denim jacket layered over a black studded corset. 'Aw I love JoJo with the bow bow,' the Love Island Australia host commented. The sheer volume of comments prompted Lucinda to update her caption on Wednesday. 'Updated post! Just met these two radiant humans today at This Morning for the first time!' the MAFS star explained. 'I didn't watch Big Brother, and when I posted this I was not across the breakup and their dynamic.' While Lucinda wiped her hands of the social media faux pas, she said that she stands by her original. 'Lots of you have opinions about what they did or didn't do — and I get it — but I've already shared this post and stand by it. Who am I to judge on the intricacies of it all - it's reality tv after all,' Lucinda wrote in the updated caption.
