Married At First Sight’s Jules Robinson has addressed her shock dumping of Melissa Lucarelli as a bridesmaid in a series of comments on her recent Instagram post.
WATCH: Jessika Power calls out Jules for dumping Melissa as a bridesmaid
The soon-to-be-married star took to Instagram to share a photo with a secret message that, appeared to be directed towards Lucarelli.
“Every action has a reaction. Let’s be mindful in all our choices we make,” she wrote in the caption of the below image.
The post was flooded with words of support from followers encouraging Robinson to keep good people around her.
Jules suggested that the post had a deeper meaning when she replied to a comment from a follower, who wrote:
“Jules if your circle of people around you don’t make you feel great, inspired and loved than you don’t have a circle you have a cage….💖 only surround yourself with peace.”
The MAFS star responded to the comment thanking the follower.
Lucarelli recently accused Robinson of using their friendship to her advantage, telling NW magazine:
“One day we were texting about family and babies, then two days later she was dumping me as a bridesmaid!
“Now Cam and Jules are making money, she doesn’t need me anymore and she also doesn’t want me to get any publicity.”
Jessika Power has since backed Lucarelli’s claims.
According to The Daily Mail, the 27-year-old took to Instagram on Monday the 29th of October to deliver a scathing essay about the MAFS star, calling Jules ‘calculating’ and a hypocrite.
In response to an article about the drama between Melissa and Jules, Jessika said:
“I actually have to back Mel on this.”
It comes as no surprise then, that Jessika had some strong words about her former cast-mate.
In her blistering post on Instagram, she also said:
“It’s really sad to see that Jules dropped Mel as a bridesmaid but not surprising, it seems everything that woman does these days is calculated and beneficial for her and her only.”
“Throughout filming, Jules would say Martha [Kalifatidis] and I were only there for social media and endorsements, but since the show ended it seems that’s all Jules is for also,” Power continued.
It’s likely Jessika is referring to the moment on Married At First Sight when Jules compared the “women” on the show with the “girls” (i.e. Jessika and Martha).
During one dinner party, Jules made a condescending remark about her thoughts, saying:
“I just feel like there’s a divide between everything that goes on [here]. You’ve got girls and you’ve got women, that’s the actual fact. That’s the truth.”
“What does that mean? The way you act is better than how we act?” an annoyed Martha Kalifatidis replied, prompting Robinson to backtrack and say:
“No, not at all, just that you’ve got a maturity level… I never said I act better. It’s not an insult… okay, I didn’t say anything.”
In a rant on her Instagram story on Wednesday the 30th of October, Power explained why she had come to the defence of Lucarelli, calling her “a beautiful, bubbly girl” who is “not about the drama.”
“She’s so open and honest and genuine,” Power gushed.
Jessika also admitted that she “wasn’t actually that shocked” to see Lucarelli dropped as a bridesmaid.
“I stand by what I say. I feel that a lot of things Jules does can be calculating,” Power said (referring to her comments from yesterday).
“I think she is now learning how to milk what’s happening,” she continued, before adding:
“Like, good on you. All power to you if you can get things out of this opportunity then do it.
“But to see somebody like Mel hurt and to feel shut out and to feel neglected…yeah it’s really really sh*t.”
