MAFS' Jayden slammed after wild night out with Lauren: 'Embarrassing'
EXCLUSIVE: Jayden Eynaud has been called out for ‘disrespecting’ his partner Eden Harper.
Just a few hours after he professed his love for his partner Eden Harper at Nova’s reunion dinner party on Wednesday night, Married At First Sight’s Jayden Eynaud was spotted looking very cosy with his co-star Lauren Dunn at a Sydney nightclub.
Footage shared by Daily Mail on Friday shows the pair dancing together at Universal on Oxford Street at 3am, with Lauren’s hands wrapped around Jayden’s shirtless body.
According to the publication, the kickboxer “ripped off his T-shirt and flaunted his ripped torso in the crowd” and “danced up a storm” alongside the PR consultant.
An insider tells Yahoo Lifestyle that Eden was also at the club earlier in the evening but she left because her partner was “ignoring her”.

“Jayden wasn’t talking to Eden at all which was very noticeable and made everyone feel uncomfortable, so she decided to go home when they went from one club to another,” the source shares.
“At the next venue, Jayden and Lauren arrived arm in arm and were very close the whole night. She was all over him, but he was definitely enabling it.”
Meanwhile, another source tells Yahoo Lifestyle that Lauren and Jayden's night out “couldn't have been more innocent”.
“Lauren and Jayden were just having a boogie. They were playing it up for the camera and dancing with a group of people, including fans and Tristan [Black],” says the source. “She left the boys at the club while they continued to party and went home by herself.
“Lauren's always called herself a girls' girl and would never do something to upset Eden.”
Tahnee Cook calls out Jayden for 'disrespecting' Eden
Former MAFS star Tahnee Cook, who has recently become close friends with Eden, tells Yahoo Lifestyle that she finds Jayden’s recent behaviour “disappointing”.
“I feel really upset for Eden,” she says. “I watched the footage from the Nova party and was quite confused and shocked at some of the comments he was making there, from saying how much he meant it when he said ‘I love you’ to Eden and talking about how successful their relationship is in front of the group only to do this to her hours later.”
“Eden is a good friend of mine and I know this is upsetting for her, especially when he was ignoring her the whole night and the second she leaves he’s taking his shirt off and dancing with a girl. It just feels a bit embarrassing - and why is your shirt off in the club?
“I find it quite disrespectful. It feels a little intentional to hurt Eden in front of the public and media when she wasn’t there.”
What happened at the Nova dinner party?
Before the events at the nightclub, Jayden and Eden put on a united front at the Fitzy & Wippa with Kate Ritchie dinner party on Wednesday night, which was their first official event as a couple since filming MAFS.
During the evening, Eden was asked how she felt about Jayden saying ‘I love you’ for the first time in front of the cast at the final dinner party of the experiment.
“I think in the moment I just was soaking it up, I definitely wasn’t expecting it. You could see the look on my face, I was very shocked,” she said.

“I think on reflection looking back, I definitely would’ve preferred it to be private and a bit more sentimental. The dinner party’s probably not the best place for something like that, but in the moment I did really enjoy it and I was just soaking it up.”
Jayden was then asked if that was the first time he’d ever dropped the ‘L-bomb’, to which he replied: “It was certainly the first time I meant it.”
