In a development that’s hardly shocking for viewers of the latest season of The Matchmaker, Jake Thompson and Emily Carter have officially called it quits. After a whirlwind of drama, including Jake’s engagement to another contestant, Lisa Green, the finale left fans on the edge of their seats. During the live broadcast, it was disclosed that Jake and Lisa had parted ways after filming, and he and Emily were tentatively rekindling their romance.
However, just 48 hours after the live show, both Jake and Emily took to Instagram to announce their decision to end their relationship. “Emily and I have come to a mutual agreement that pursuing our relationship further isn’t the best choice for either of us. This wasn’t an easy decision, but after many heartfelt discussions, we believe it’s for the best. The respect and affection I have for Emily will always remain,” Jake shared, awkwardly adding a note for Lisa too.
In her own message, Emily stated, “As Jake and I part ways, I trust that we’ll both continue on our individual journeys, remembering that everything happens for a reason. I will forever hold love and respect for him. I truly believe our meeting was destined, and we are both better for having crossed paths.”
The Writing Was on the Wall
The writing was on the wall for this couple. During the finale, it was abundantly clear that Jake’s family had a strong disdain for Emily. They displayed their feelings openly, leaving audiences baffled. Jake’s mother, Angela, even made a staggering remark about her son needing to “fail to succeed” in his romantic endeavors. That’s quite the sentiment to express about your own child’s love life.
To add to the drama, reports have surfaced this week revealing that Jake’s brother, Tom, has been quite vocal in criticizing Emily on social media. While the reasons behind the family’s contempt for her remain unclear, it’s evident that such treatment would send anyone running for the hills. If they were to act like this in public, I would be mortified and make a swift exit from the situation.
What’s Next for The Matchmaker?
This season of The Matchmaker has been nothing short of chaotic, leaving fans eager to see how Clare Williams will navigate her role as the upcoming Matchmaker. I’m also placing bets on whether Jake will make an appearance in Paradise, contingent upon his family’s approval, of course.
