Traitors winner Jake is said to have been confronted by his wife Shannon after growing close to a female colleague
Traitors winner Jake Brown has broken his silence after reports he was confronted by his wife after growing close to a female work colleague.
Jake, who was a Faithful on the hit BBC show, is said to have met his work friend before wife Shannon found out and confronted him. A source said of the couple, of Barrow, Cumbria : “They were going through a rocky patch. He was so apologetic.”
The pair are said to have got on at an office party two months after Jake’s wedding – allegedly resulting in a ‘showdown’ with Jake’s wife.
Following the allegations, Jake has returned to Instagram to quieten rumours about his marriage. The star posted a cosy picture of him and Shannon on a night out. The snap was originally posted by Jake’s Traitors co-star Leon Jackman, who supportively wrote ‘I love these two’ amid the allegations.
Jake and Shannon have been together since 2015 and married on September 15, 2023. Shannon shared photographs from the wedding on Instagram at the time with the caption: “Best day of our lives.”
Two months after the wedding, Jake is said to have grown close to a work friend at an office party. Jake and his female colleague are said to have grown close over five months as they both battled problems at home.
However, when Shannon found out she ordered her new husband to end the friendship.
A source told The Sun: “She wasn’t happy, and confronted Jake. She told him it had to stop.”
The insider explained: “Jake had become close to this woman and they were hanging out. They confided in each other. They’d meet up and lean on each other for comfort and support. But the longer it went on, Shannon grew suspicious of the friendship.”
The source said Shannon messaged Jake’s pal and got in touch with her boyfriend: “Shannon met the guy for coffee to let him know her concerns. He was shocked but his and the woman’s relationship had ended by the time Shannon met him, so he was glad to see the back of her.”
