Video transcript

- You and Jackson appeared to be friendly exes, but this seems to have changed in recent weeks.

- Oh.

- What really happened between you two?

- Ooh.

- Nothing's, like, really happened. So to be fully transparent with it, we very much tried to maintain a friendship and be really good mates, and I think we still are. It's just--

- There are different stages?

- It-- to be honest, he, like, hurts my feelings a lot. So I think he thinks that I'll get back together with him at the drop of a hat. And so when we have conversations, a lot of the time, he's trying not to lead me on because he thinks that I'm-- he thinks that he's gonna lead me on if he's nice to me.

So he's quite cold and it's really hard to go from being in a very loving relationship to trying to be friendly exes. And he's quite icy with me and he's not an icy person, like-- we know he's very big and warm and lovely and for him to put that wall up and be quite conservative with me is a really big change, and I don't like it. And I'm capable of being warm and lovely with absolutely anybody, like, all my exes, and I-- all still really good friends, and I still speak to them really kindly. So to not get that back from someone that I do cherish is too hard to continue to put myself out there and be in the relationship, like, in the friendship right now. So--

- That's terrible.

- --we Are still-- like, I still have nothing but love and respect for him, but it's just-- yeah, there just needs to be a bit of space at the moment.

- Mm.
