Married At First Sight star Eden Harper made some very explosive claims about her fellow bride Sara Mesa during Tuesday night’s drama-filled episode.
Eden, 28, found herself conflicted at the Byron Bay retreat when she revealed she had a big ‘secret’ about one of her co-stars but didn’t know whether to share it.
Daily Mail Australia had exclusively revealed that Eden would reveal Sara’s ‘secret meetings’ with her ex-boyfriend, and the shocking scenes have finally played out.
After isolating herself from the group activities at the retreat, her husband Jayden Eynaud raised concerns, leading her to claim that Sara had secretly met her ex-boyfriend behind her “husband” Tim Calwell’s back.
She claimed Sara asked her via text to borrow some clothes for dinner, before shockingly revealing she was meeting up with her ex-boyfriend.

Jayden was left furious when he heard of his wife’s claims, insisting it was ‘cheating’ when he told Eden they should tell Tim, and she quickly agreed.
A teaser clip for Wednesday’s episode showed Eden telling Sara that if she wasn’t honest about her antics the weekend before, she would tell Tim in a cliffhanger ending.
The drama first started when Eden told producers how she felt ‘stressed’ and ‘anxious’ about keeping a ‘secret’.
She revealed: ‘I have been given information that I didn’t want, which is a secret, which could affect a lot of people here. It makes me not want to hang out with everyone, I feel so uncomfortable and so anxious and I don’t know what to do.”
Eden admitted that she felt like she was in a “lose-lose situation” because she could ruin her friendships if she revealed the text messages, but she didn’t want to damage her relationship with Jayden by lying .
She isolated herself from the group activities – including a fun workshop organized by Lucinda Light – and walked out during evening drinks because she wasn’t sure what to do.
Eden claimed Sara asked her to borrow some clothes via text, before shockingly revealing she was meeting up with her ex-boyfriend, allegedly behind Tim Calwell’s back.
‘I found it difficult to be here tonight because I feel very strongly that it has to come out, I’m scared. It’s just too much,” she said.
Eden then broke down in tears behind a closed door and was comforted by a producer, who asked her what the secret was she was hiding.
She said cryptically, “Something happened, it doesn’t have to do with Jayden, it has to do with someone else. I received a text about something someone did to someone else and it’s pretty bad.
‘It really makes me feel stressed because they’re all going to hate me, all of them when it comes out. If I don’t, Jayden is going to hate me for doing the wrong thing.”
The next morning, Jayden then spoke to Eden privately and shared his concerns about her reclusive nature, which led to her making the secret public.
She dropped the bomb, claiming, “Right before the retreat, someone in the experiment messaged me asking for clothes. She said, “I want to wear a cool top to dinner tonight.”

‘And I was very sweet and I had written to her: ‘Where are you going to eat?’ and when I opened it she said “I’m in a relationship with my ex-boyfriend”. It’s Sarah.’
A shocked Jayden insisted Sara’s alleged actions amounted to ‘cheating’ and the couple – who have both been cheated on by exes – agreed Tim should know.
Jayden said angrily: “Even if nothing happened, we know they obviously talked to each other somehow and they met.
‘Talking – whether calling or texting – is a form of cheating, and meeting with your ex-partner behind your husband’s back is also a form of cheating. Any way you look at it, it’s wrong.’
A teaser trailer for Wednesday night’s episode showed Eden and Jayden chatting with Sara and Tim over dinner as the explosive scenes unfolded.
Eden boldly told Sara that if she didn’t tell Tim what she was doing the weekend before, they would, and Tim stormed out of the party.
After isolating herself from the group, her husband Jayden Eynaud raised concerns, leading to her claiming that Sara had secretly met her ex behind her ‘husband’ Tim’s back.
The shocked faces of their co-stars could also be seen around the table, with Sara seemingly having an explosive argument with someone as the tension seemed to rise.
Daily Mail Australia recently revealed that Sara’s clandestine meetings with her ‘ex’ took place during a filming break behind Tim’s back, according to an insider.
“Eden confronted Sara about the shocking claims at this week’s dinner because she felt the way she was treating Tim was wrong,” the spy claimed.
“She gave her a chance to be honest… and then Sara tells the group about catching up with her ex.”
‘Sara eventually admits to everyone that she was still in contact with her ex, despite giving everything to Tim.
‘Everyone was absolutely rooting for Eden and praised her for confronting Sara with the claims.’
Owner of online company Tim is said to be reeling from the shocking news.
“Shattered doesn’t even cover it,” said a source close to the heartbroken husband. ‘He was devastated when he heard what had happened. It is a mess.’
A teaser clip for Wednesday’s episode showed Eden telling Sara that if she wasn’t honest about her antics the weekend before, she would tell Tim in a cliffhanger ending.
But Sara quickly denied Eden’s claims, as sources close to her acknowledged while Sara was still friends with her ex, “there’s really nothing else to say.”
“Sara and her ex run in similar circles, when he’s in Sydney they catch up with our whole group,” says a friend.
‘There’s really nothing else to say, nothing salacious or scandalous like people would want to hear.
“They broke up so long ago and have both had other serious relationships since then.”
Married At First Sight continues on Wednesday at 7.30pm on Channel Nine.
