Now Kylie, an eponymous documentary about the star, has shared an insight into their romance, with Jason admitting that he was jealous of Kylie's success.

Yet things soon soured between the pair after Kylie launched a commercially successful singing career but struggled with the criticism she faced.
Jason reflected: 'She really struggled and I was like, "well, maybe you shouldn't have gone down that route..." because that's how my attitude was.
'Her music career at that point had really taken off. It didn't p**s me off but it was like... We'd been this partnership in the show and suddenly I could see she was moving away from her acting.
'So there was a few arguments. I had my own ego at that point "why isn't this happening to me?" you know what I mean.'
Footage was shown of Jason taunting Kylie during a row, filming her looking sombre as he remarked: 'that's Kylie getting all s***y, little boss moss.'
Jason continued: 'Until they got on the phone and asked me to do it [release a single] and then it all changed.
'Try working me out then at that point, I don't f***ing know. I guess I was frightened I was going to lose her.'
Kylie previously admitted she had forgotten about the clips' existence until Netflix producers were able to track them down.
'This was going back to the days where people only had a camera if they went on holiday,' Kylie said. 'I imagine it was quite an effort to find that.
'When I saw that footage for the first time, my heart swelled. I thought, "Oh my God, we were just babies."
'That brought back tidal waves of nostalgia, emotion and a lot of love.'
Kylie also discussed her relationship with INXS front man Michael Hutchence in the documentary, whom she dated for three years.
The pair met while she was in a relationship with Jason, with the singer confessing: 'Jason and I will always have this undeniable bond, but things were about to change...'
