When Dave Crisp confessed he expected “something a little bit different” after first laying eyes on Jess Wardrop in last year’s Married at First Sight, you couldn’t help but feel sorry for the bride from Sydney’s south-west.
Fast forward a year and, after a complete body transformation, it’s Jess who’s having the last laugh on Dave, the groom who famously spent more time on his toenails than romancing his bride.
Jess has dropped 10kg in just three months after radically overhauling her diet and exercise regimen and “cutting the negative people out of my life,” to look and feel the best she ever has.
And now she’s diving back into the dating game.
“I’m pretty proud of myself,” Jess, 33, reveals in an exclusive interview with Woman’s Day.
Jess says she’s never felt better.
“I went on the show thinking I was strong and confident, but when Dave made me question myself it was very eye-opening.”
“I had a lot of support from the public so ultimately I gained confidence from the experience, but no woman should ever be treated like that.”
