Speaking to Womanā€™s Day, a source close to the hunky 25-year-old insists his intentions for being on the show werenā€™t entirely to win over Angieā€™s heart, instead revealing Jackson entered the mansion as a form of revenge!

ā€œBeyond boosting his profile, heā€™s on the show to stick the knife into Married At First Sight star Ryan [Gallagher],ā€ reveals a source who is close to the reality star, adding that Jackson and the former MAFS groom used to be good friends before falling out.

ā€œThey were once really good mates, partners in crimeā€¦ but they havenā€™t spoken in years.ā€

According to our insider, Ryan and Jackson both lived and socialised in the same circles in Sydneyā€™s Eastern suburbs but are no longer on speaking terms and have even removed each other from their social media accounts.

The source insists that while heā€™s definitely turned up the charm for the cameras, Jackson ā€“ who last week was seen partying on a yacht in Mexico with NRL star Sam Burgess and a slew of bikini babes ā€“ allegedly only expressed interest on going on the show after it was revealed that Bachelorette Angie, 29, had developed feelings for Ryan, 31.

Angie and Ryan were romantically linked just months before filming started on this yearā€™s season, with Womanā€™s Day previously revealing that Ryan was hassling producers for a spot on the show.

Sources at the time explained Angie was hellbent on having Ryan thrown into the mix and even had the crew on board with the idea, but it was later quashed because executives decided it wasnā€™t on brand.

Now it looks like poor Angie is set to have her heart broken all over again as Jacksonā€™s true intentions are out in the open.

Plusā€¦Jacksonā€™s secret engagement revealed!

In news that is likely to send Angieā€™s head further into a spin, Womanā€™s Day can reveal Jackson previously dated ā€“ and proposed to ā€“ Survivor star Abbey Holmes!

According to a close friend, the pair struck up a romance in 2017 after chatting online for several months, with Jackson even jokingly proposing to Abbey at one stage.

ā€œJackson was smitten with Abbey and introduced her to his friends and family,ā€ dishes our source. ā€œHe treated her like a princess.ā€

However, it seems the long distance took a toll on their relationship, which ended after six months. And despite Abbeyā€™s relationship with West Coast Eagles star Keegan Brooksby, the source insists their newfound TV fame has seen the duo reconnect. ā€œThey still chat regularly!ā€
