Jade and Michael’s relationship has come under scrutiny since they got into a bust at a park in Noosa on January 10 when she accused the cricketer of sleeping with his ex, PE Nation designer Pip Edwards.

In January, extraordinary footage emerged of a heated argument between the couple while they were holidaying in Noosa.

In the video, which was filmed by an onlooker and later sold to The Daily Telegraph for a reported $10,000, Jade accused Michael of cheating on her with his ex, fashion designer Pip Edwards, on Dec. 17 and they subsequently broke up over the incident.

The video opens with Yarbrough yelling at Clarke before punching him in the face and pushing him away after the cricketer insists he didn’t cheat on her.
