Married At First Sight might be over, but Jessika Power's 15 seconds of fame isn't.
The controversial blonde has come under major fire, after filming herself driving while allegedly under the influence of alcohol.

The footage was posted on Snapchat before being deleted... but that didn't stop it from being shared online and eventually going viral.
Now, in a very long statement posted to Instagram Stories on Monday night, Jessika has apologised for the video, claiming she was not drunk.
"I have felt such an overwhelming need to apologise about the video that aired on Channel 9 last night that has been taken out of context.
"I was not intoxicated in the video, yes I had two glasses of wine at dinner (hours before getting in a car)."
Jess went on to explain that she and her auntie were just joking about drinking and driving: "My auntie and I often play around in videos and it was a fun side of me that I wanted to share.
"I can see the carelessness of the video and how insensitive I came across to any family members or victims of drink driving."
The video depicts Jessika behind the wheel carrying on, distracted and slurring. In one part of the video, she even claimed to be drink driving.
"Uncle Riley is right next door to us... and if he knew that we were going to drink and drive and get cigarettes - we'd be in that much trouble," Jessika slurs.
"Ah s--t! I'm the middle of the road."
Police have yet to comment.
