Controversial Married At First Sight star Jacqui Burfoot is caught out making embarrassing online gaffe
Married At First Sight star Jacqui Burfoot has been caught red-handed making a rather embarrassing online gaffe.
Jacqui, 29, became known as one of the most controversial brides in recent MAFS memory due to her tumultuous relationship with ex-Ryan Donnelly.
And now Jacqui has been busted posing as her own number one fan by a fellow Married At First Sight star.
Harrison Boon, who starred on the 2023 season, took to TikTok this week to call out the jewellery maven for supporting her own fan funding campaign.
'She's [Jacqui] downloaded this app called Buy Me A Coffee,' Harrison began the clip.
Continuing, the reality star gave viewers the low-down on the platform, explaining that it was a 'fun and easy' way for fans to support their favorite stars.
'Fans being the important word here,' Harrison added cheekily.
He then went on to share a screenshot of Jacqui's Buy Me A Coffee page which is calling for a minimum donation of $8 - a tad higher than the national average of $5.50 for a cup of joe.
It appears that Jacqui's coffee request has not resonated with fans.
At the time of publishing, the page only had one follower - Jacqui herself.
'Jacqui has downloaded the app where her fans can buy her a coffee. But no one would buy Jacqui a coffee for $8 because, who in their right mind would,' Harrison said.
Harrison then pointed out that Jacqui herself had commented on the page in an effort to drum up hype.
'So, Jacqui decided to become a supporter of herself and what did Jacqui's message to herself say, you might ask?' he said.
'Jacqui writes, in the third person, to herself, "Thank you for all the laughs. You were our favourite bride of all time. Never a dull moment."'

Barely able to contain his laughter, Harrison added that this incident may just be the tipping point for the controversial reality star.
Jacqui's funding faux pas comes after she and fiancé Clint Rice revealed intimate details about when they plan on tying the knot, as well as exciting baby news.
The happy couple, who got engaged during a MAFS viewing party early last month, took to Instagram to answer some burning questions from their fans.
When one follower asked if the pair had set a wedding date, Jacqui revealed they are hoping to tie the knot early next year, before revealing they are already talking about having children.
'We haven't set a wedding date yet, but we're hoping it will be between January and March next year,' she said as the couple sat on their couch together in Clint's lavish Tasmanian home.
'We're actually ready for kids and babies. Personally, I want to get married before I get pregnant. I don't want to be dealing with the drama of being pregnant and having a wedding dress be altered throughout my pregnancy.
'We're very keen to get married ASAP.'

I've joined the epic retirement club thanks to my ex-Celtic player son who said ‘you don't have to work anymore'
A MUM of five has revealed how she was able to retire last year thanks to her big-hearted son - who is a former Celtic player. Veronica Morgan posted a heartfelt message onto The Epic Retirement Club page on Facebook, explaining how she was able to join the club thanks to her footie star son. Sign up for the Celtic newsletter Sign up 2 Veronica Morgan was able to retire last year thanks to her big-hearted son 2 She's the mother of Scotland international Lewis Morgan Credit: Kenny Ramsay She can now travel the world and visit her sons and daughters - who are situated all over the globe - after the kind gesture from ex-Celtic winger Lewis Morgan. Lewis, 28, has been earning the big bucks as a footballer since he sealed his dream move to Parkhead from St Mirren in 2018. Things didn't quite work out for the wide-man in Glasgow, though, as he only lasted two years at the Hoops before heading stateside. But it's fair to say he's been living the good life across the pond since 2020, having initially joined Inter Miami - before Lionel Messi made the switch to David Beckham's side. Now at New York Red Bulls, the six-cap Scotland star has managed to put enough of his earnings to one side to help his loved ones out. Veronica posted on social media: "I'm so grateful to my son who retired me last year. I'm 65 and now living my best life. My children have all moved away, we are from Scotland. "My eldest son and partner are in Lytham St. Anne in England, my eldest daughter and husband in Melbourne Australia, my middle daughter and husband in Manhattan New York City, my youngest son and partner in Hoboken New Jersey, and my youngest daughter is in London, so I'm travelling now in my retirement and loving every minute." Veronica had plans to retire for some time but she wasn't in a position financially to go through with it - until her son helped her out. She continued: "I had been wanting to retire my son just gave me the push I needed to do it. "He knew I was getting tired working and didn't want me to think I had to keep working when he had the means to say 'enough is enough mum you don't have to work anymore'. The diggers move in as Celtic Park pitch is dug up "I'd never not had a job since I was 14 even when I had the five kids all under 7 at one point I still worked. "My husband and me both juggled our jobs to make sure someone was always there for them and it was tough but you do what you have to do to give your kids a good life. "They are so thankful for that and I'm so proud of all of them they've all gone on to have amazing careers - his just happened to be the one that allowed me to retire and I'm so grateful to him every day."

World's most popular TikTok star Khaby Lame leaves the U.S. after being detained by ICE
Khaby Lame, the world's most popular TikTok personality with millions of followers, has left the U.S. after being detained by immigration agents in Las Vegas for allegedly overstaying his visa. The Senegalese- Italian influencer, whose legal name is Seringe Khabane Lame, was detained Friday at Harry Reid International Airport but was allowed to leave the country without a deportation order, a spokesperson for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed in a statement. Lame arrived in the U.S. on April 30 and 'overstayed the terms of his visa,' the ICE spokesperson said. The Associated Press sent a message seeking comment Tuesday to the email address listed on Lame's Instagram account. He has not publicly commented on his detainment. His detainment and voluntary departure from the U.S. comes amid President Donald Trump's escalating crackdown on immigration, including raids in Los Angeles that sparked days of protests against ICE, as the president tests the bounds of his executive authority. A voluntary departure — which was granted to Lame — allows those facing removal from the U.S. to avoid a deportation order on their immigration record, which could prevent them from being allowed back into the U.S. for up to a decade. The 25-year-old rose to international fame during the pandemic without ever saying a word in his videos, which would show him reacting to absurdly complicated 'life hacks." He has over 162 million followers on TikTok alone. The Senegal-born influencer moved to Italy when he was an infant with his working class parents and has Italian citizenship. His internet fame quickly evolved. He signed a multi-year partnership with designer brand Hugo Boss in 2022. In January, he was appointed as a UNICEF goodwill ambassador. Last month, he attended the Met Gala in New York City, days after arriving in the U.S.
