MAFS star Davina Rankin reveals her dramatic weight loss after confirming split from her husband

Davina Rankin has revealed her weight loss and fitness transformation following her divorce from husband, Jaxon Manuel.

The Married At First Sight star took to Instagram on Thursday to share before and after photos, explaining that she recently regained her fitness following her breast implant removal surgery — otherwise known as explant surgery.

Davina had her implants removed a year ago after being in them for over 10 years. She had previously stated that she had breast implant disease (BII), which can cause a range of health problems.

“Feeling stronger every day,” she wrote on her Story.

“After my explant I didn’t even touch a weight for a year. I took my healing very slowly.’

She thanked the popular fitness program Fitazfk and said she loves feeling “strong” again.

In a separate post, Davina shared another before and after photo, which showed a picture of herself just after filming I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! last year.

“Sometimes we are blind to progress if we look too closely,” she continued.

“So much inflammation, so much stress, I didn’t feel like I was living authentically.”

She added, “When I look at her I can feel her sadness, the pressure she put on herself to make her life look ‘perfect’. I really have a tear in my eye when I look back at her now. Crazy how much can change in a year.’

On Tuesday, Davina confirmed she had divorced less than a year after marrying Jaxon.

She released a statement on Tuesday confirming “speculation” about the breakup after fans noticed she had quietly unfollowed Jaxon on Instagram.

The former couple, parents of three-year-old daughter Mila-Mae, had been married less than a year.

“Relationships are hard,” Davina wrote on Instagram with a photo of a beach at sunset.

“Given the recent speculation, I feel I have to confirm that Jax and I have broken up.”

The statement continued, “I will discuss this further at some point, but my current focus is learning to navigate my new normal while ensuring a seamless and loving transition to co-parenting for our daughter.”

Split rumors had been circulating for months with influencer Davina almost confirming the end of her marriage by unfollowing Jaxon on Instagram.

A search of the wellness author’s following list shows no sign of Jaxon’s account, which is still active.

The couple tied the knot in a glamorous wedding last April.

But suspicions were raised when Jaxon abruptly stopped appearing on his wife’s Instagram grid August 2022.

Four months later in December, Davina hinted at heartbreak when she shared a cryptic post about 2022, her year of self-discovery..

“2022 has been the greatest year of spiritual and mental growth for me and for the first time in my life I can finally hear the whispers of my heart,” she wrote.

“I’m in touch with my institution and I’ve stopped pleasing people and I’m tackling my fear of judgment head-on.

“This year I’ve grown into something I never imagined… MYSELF.”

Nevertheless, in January Davina insisted they were still together, telling So Dramatic, “We’re definitely still married. Although I should probably post more pictures of him.’

Davina rose to fame as one of the original MAFS villains during the 2018 breakout season. She was infamous for cheating on her “husband” Ryan Gallagher with right-wing YouTuber Dean Wells, but later blamed her actions on poor editing.
