MAFS’ Eden reveals exactly why Jayden dumped her, and it involved sharing a bed

Well, that's... bizarre

Married At First Sight’s Jayden and Eden were one of the 2024 golden couples until they abruptly split shortly after the finale aired.

Fans were shocked about their break up, and, turns out, Eden was too.

During a candid interview on Dom Calarco and Ella Ding’s Sit With Us podcast, the recruitment manager shared one of the bizarre reasons that Jayden broke up with her.

Jayden didn’t want to share a bed with Eden

Eden told the hosts that she and Jayden struggled to settle into life outside of the experiment together.

“There were a couple of things about the relationship that were different to what I’m used to,” she said.

She added that Jayden, who’s a professional kickboxer, was “very strict with his sport and training”.

“So much to a point where he won’t share a bed at night so he likes to be able to stretch and recover,” she said.

“That for me was a big deal breaker almost because I’m like, I need to be able to share a bed with a partner.

“Bedtime, he didn’t want to stay with me and that was really concerning,” she continued.

Eden said that she made her feelings about sleeping together known, and Jayden agreed to stay with her once a week.

“Eventually one of the nights where he came to stay, he said, ‘I can’t do this. I feel like I can’t meet your expectations.”

“I was just really confused… because the only thing I’d ever ask him was for a sleepover once a week,” she said through tears.

Eden tried to get back together with Jayden

Eden said that she and Jayden caught up a few days after the breakup, and she tried to get back together with him, however, he wasn’t receptive to it.

“He made his decision, he didn’t really want to have the conversation to be honest. I was holding on to hope that he would realise he was making the wrong decision.”

“I just think I wasn’t what he wanted and that’s the bottom line and I just really have to accept that,” she said.
