In an exclusive chat with 9Entertainment, Tori explained that as drama-filled as their relationship was on screens their break-up is "the most boring, normal thing ever".

Explaining the reason behind their split, Tori said: "We just kind of got to a point where we never took that next step of really falling deeply in love with one another."

"There was a lot of love there and a lot of care and respect, but it just never took that next progression," the 29-year-old continued.

"It's not a decision that we woke up one day and just decided to call it. We did work at it for a period of time and essentially we got to the result of we're just really great friends.

"That's as juicy as it gets."

Some might presume it's awkward to be living with an ex but that's not the case with Tori and Jack with the pair maintaining a strong friendship since the split.

"Nothing has changed other than obviously the intimate relationship. We're no longer boyfriend and girlfriend, that's literally the only change," Tori said.

"We still go to the gym together, we still hang out together."

Despite the start of a new chapter, Tori doesn't see herself and Jack not being in each other's lives noting they'll forever be bonded by their unique MAFS experience.

"We've gone through such a crazy experience together and at the end of the day, we have a great, close friendship. We have the same sense of humor. We enjoy each other's company. We share the same interests in things.

"I will always pester him about my training programs. You know, my ex boyfriend is still my PT," she laughed.

Tori, 29, and Jack, 35, first met on Season 11 of Married At First Sight.

The pair hit it off at their wedding, but it's no secret that their relationship was far from perfect throughout the experiment.

Early on, Jack declared that there was no "sexual spark" between them, which caused their sex life to become one of the experiment's biggest talking points.

They also faced scrutiny from the other participants who did not believe their relationship was real.

Jack's words during the experiment about his co-stars – from the 'muzzle' comment, followed by a 'whale' comment – made him one of the most controversial grooms of the season, and many doubted their romance would last.
