Jessika Power has been caught up in a catfishing scam after she quietly confirmed her split with British DJ Brent Anthony.
The reality star, 31, posted to her Instagram Stories on Monday to warn her fans that someone is impersonating her on dating app, Tinder.
She shared a screenshot of a message she received from a person who had spotted a fake profile on the site using her name and image.
‘Just thought you should know that someone has used your photos and name and (age?) on Tinder’ the message read.
‘But now you are in clearly back in Perth so there is a possibility that it could be you…? Nonetheless thought you should know!’
Jessika replied: ‘Hahahaha I literally JUST had this sent to me by another person. I’m not on Tinder so I’m sure the account will be taken down soon if they can’t verify it!’
Days ago, the one-time television bride made the confession that she was now single in the comments of her recent Instagram post.
A fan wrote under an image of the blonde in skimpy pink underwear: ‘I’m sad you and Brent broke up, you looked so happy with him’.

Jessika replied to the fan personally, writing, ‘I really wasn’t and I hid a lot of my emotions and embarrassment from the internet.’
The former Married At First Sight star had hinted that the romance was over just days prior.
She explained to fans that her beloved sausage dog Sushi is living with her ex-boyfriend in France.
‘Sushi is with my ex because I had to leave in a rush for my father’s funeral,’ the Aussie MAFS star said in an Instagram Q&A.

One of Jessika’s 344,000 followers had asked who is looking after her dog now.
‘I’m trying to get [Sushi] on a flight ASAP from France to the UK,’ she wrote.
‘If anyone knows of any airlines that can help let me know because it’s a little unfair he’s having to watch my dog as we aren’t together anymore.’
Jessika has appeared on a string of reality shows around the world since she found fame on MAFS Australia in 2019.
She unveiled plans to move home to Australia last year after calling time on her two-year relationship with fellow British DJ Connor Thompson in June 2023.
She told fans last December she was ‘saving money’ to relocate back to the Gold Coast with Sushi, but not long after that began dating Brent and seemingly changed her mind.

Instead, she moved to the French Riviera with Brent.
In May, Jessika shared a sweet video of herself and Brent walking through Nice hand-in-hand before the reality star jumped into his arms.
Eagle-eyed fans picked up on Brent and Sushi’s absence from Jessika’s posts in the last few weeks and have been flooding her comments sections with questions about what happened between the pair.
Over the weekend, Jessika appeared to confirm she and Brent had broken up and he is the ‘ex’ that’s looking after her dog while she’s returned to the UK.
‘Are you and Brent not together anymore?’ one fan commented on a post of Jessika dolled up in ‘dreamy’ pink lingerie for OnlyFans.

Jessika, who is reportedly the most successful of any MAFS Australia bride on the OnlyFans platform, shared the snap last week.
She responded: ‘Brent and I have a lot of care for each other. Sushi will be back with me in a few months.’
‘I would have loved to seen Brent follow you out to Aus you were great together,’ the fan wrote back to Jessika a second time.
Soon after, Brent shared multiple videos of himself cuddled up with Sushi on his couch playing video games.
Jessika has been in a relationship wit British DJ Brent Anthony since early 2024 and the pair were living together in Nice, France with her dog Sushi until recently
‘Arghhhh I can’t wait,’ Jessika replied, not offering any clarification as to whether she meant she can’t wait to be reunited with Sushi in the UK, or she has hopes that she’ll rekindle her romance with the DJ in Australia.
The Married At First Sight star was forced to make a snap return to the Gold Coast in August to farewell her beloved father at a moving funeral.
Jessika filmed herself riding in a black funeral car, which appeared to be in Queensland, as a group of motorcyclists followed behind.
She also shared a quick look inside the wake, which appeared to be held in rustic pub.

The former TV bride, who has dyed her hair back to blonde after being a redhead for a time, captioned the clips with the words ‘Love you dad’.
Jessika revealed the shock news of her dad’s death in July, sharing the sad news of the passing of former professional boxer Troy Power.
She also posted to social media to provide a mental health update after she was trolled when asking for donation’s to fund her late father’s funeral.
‘I’m getting messages asking how I am, which I appreciate. I’m staying in my childhood home – father’s house – which has been hard, but comforting,’ she began.
‘We grew up here and are surrounded by his things, which is helping.’
Jessika then added the ongoing media coverage surrounding her father’s funeral was having a negative effect on her mental health and has decided to keep his funeral details private.
‘I know I’m a public figure, but I need this to be private,’ she said.
‘I’m not going to be sharing anything on the day, like where it is or the date. I’m not in the right headspace at the moment, funerals are devastating but they bring the family back together.’
