Jessika Power pens heartbreaking statement after coming clean on Sam Burgess dating rumours

So sad.
  • 01 Nov 2019

Married At First Sight star Jessika Power has released an emotional statement begging critics to let her be.

The statement comes days after the controversial reality-TV star set the record straight on rumours she is dating former NRL star, Sam Burgess.

‘Unfortunately, having a life in the public eye often means that people want to pry into events that I would have liked to keep private. That false information about my love life can be incredibly upsetting to not only me, but to others involved,’ she wrote on Instagram.

'Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I've opened myself up to that, but stop and think before you react,' she continued.

'As tough as I look, I'm still a young girl working my way through life, and words can hurt even the toughest of people.

'I'm not perfect, but nobody is these days and I'm learning to be soft and it's not hard to be kind. Spread that stuff everywhere.'

Earlier this week Jess came clean about what's been going on between her and Burgess.

While she clarified the details of the texts she's sent to the former Rabbitohs star, Jess also told the publication that she "felt sorry for" Phoebe, Sam's estranged wife.
