MAFS stars Olivia and Jackson announced their split yesterday after ten months together and fans believe that their latest announcement is just another ploy for more engagement.
Throughout their short tenure together, they’ve gotten married, endured an affair, been involved in countless fights, started successful OnlyFans platforms and now, split up.
“After a wonderful 10 months together we have decided to go our separate ways. There has always been a lot of love in our relationship and there will continue to be as we transition into a friendship.
“We have nothing but love and respect for one another, and no one is to blame for the end of this relationship. Simply a case of ‘almost perfect’. We hope you all can please show compassion as we navigate this privately,” both reality stars wrote on their respective Instagram accounts.

And, while their break-up statement is pretty black and white, fans aren’t entirely convinced that their split isn’t just another publicity stunt.
In May – just a week after Olivia launched her OnlyFans account, and when the couple were well and truly official – Jackson was captured on camera making out with a mystery woman. The attention that ensued from the incident was meteoric. Along with thousands of fans, co-star and arch nemesis Domenica Calarco accused the pair of staging the cheating to gain publicity. Shortly after, the couple reunited and Jackson launched his OnlyFans.
Now, fans are again accusing Olivia and Jackson of staging a break-up in order to gain more attention – and OnlyFans subscribers.
While both Jackson and Olivia have their comments turned off on their breakup post, the reality gossip account The Wash Online doesn’t, and the comments section is packed with cynical fans.

“They’ll be back together in a blink, another attention-seeking moment because Dom and Ella are doing so well. Wanting to stay relevant I guess,” wrote one user.
Another commented, “Attention seeking if I’ve ever seen it. And, a third wrote; “Next week there’ll be an update about their ‘reconciliation”‘.
Interestingly, according to the same publication, Olivia conducted an Instagram Live the night before the break up and told her followers that she and Jackson were “going great” and that she was home alone because he was out picking up dinner for her. She went as far as to tell her followers that she thought Jackson was going to propose to her when she got back from Europe last week.
