Harry Jowsey's ex-wife Amber Mozo has accused the reality star of being "gaslit, manipulated and emotionally abused" during their relationship, which began and ended on the Netflix dating show Let's Marry Harry.
Mozo, 31, a travel photographer from Hawaii, said she felt "blindsided" and "completely disposed of" after learning Jowsey, 29, had met up with runner-up Dannelle Davidson a month after the pair's on-show wedding.
The dating series was created by Alex Cooper's production company Unwell and tasked Jowsey with choosing a future wife from 20 American women. He picked Mozo in the finale, while Davidson, 33, who wore a wedding dress to the ceremony believing she would be chosen, was dumped.
Mozo and Jowsey split in January, shortly after honeymooning in Australia. On the show's reunion episode, Mozo accused Jowsey of spending time with a female influencer during the trip, believed to be his current girlfriend Olivia Phillips. Other cast members claimed Jowsey had slept with multiple women off-camera.
Friends say the chaos is no surprise
Bryce Hirschberg, 36, who starred with Jowsey on Too Hot to Handle, told the Daily Mail he was not shocked. "He knows how to work a camera, how to tell a story. He doesn't hold too much back," Hirschberg said. "If he wants to stir the pot, he knows that makes good TV and he's willing to do anything."
Hirschberg said Jowsey "loves to manifest" his future, recalling that Jowsey used to say he wanted to be on The Bachelor before Netflix built one around him. "He has always been money motivated. Most people are," Hirschberg added. "I mean, hey, for the right price."
A long history in reality TV
Jowsey's television career began on the 2018 New Zealand show Heartbreak Island, where he matched with Georgia Bryers and won a share of a $100,000 prize before splitting six months later.
He then won the British version of Too Hot to Handle in 2019, taking home $7,500, and appeared on MTV's Match Me If You Can and later Perfect Match.
He also made his acting debut in the 2025 romantic comedy The Wrong Paris. Let's Marry Harry premiered on August 5 with a tagline referencing his reputation: "Is he ready for a ring or just another fling?" Hirschberg said Jowsey doesn't mind. "He's really good about his image, even if it's a bad image. As long as people are talking about him, he's relevant."
Ex Francesca Farago speaks out
Francesca Farago, Jowsey's former girlfriend from Too Hot to Handle, said doing the new show was likely about clout rather than finding a partner. "He's very good at being likable on camera and being funny, but I don't think his character is masked at all," she told the Daily Mail. "I think there's a huge difference between being charming and being a good person."
Farago, who has one-year-old twins with her fiancé, TikTok star Jesse Sullivan, accused Jowsey of "repeating the same patterns" since before they dated. She and Jowsey split in June 2020 after dating on and off for about a year. She claimed he "never loved" her and that she has since heard about him being unfaithful; Jowsey has denied the allegations.
"I just think deep down, he never had feelings for me like that," Farago said, adding that Jowsey tends to "flip the story" to make his exes look like the ones misleading him.
Mozo's honeymoon accusations
At the reunion, Mozo confronted Jowsey directly, accusing him of meeting his girlfriend on their honeymoon and running to Davidson once cameras stopped rolling. Jowsey has said he was protecting the women's privacy and previously claimed producers used fake audio for sex scenes shown on the series.
Farago said producers approached her to appear on Let's Marry Harry instead of Georgia Hassarati, Jowsey's ex from 2022 to 2023, but she turned it down. "What they offered as financial compensation was not even close to worth my time, the emotional toll it would've taken on me," she said.
A separate source told the Daily Mail that Jowsey "has not spoken to [Francesca] in years, and she is not relevant to his life in any capacity."
Father's death becomes a flashpoint
Jowsey hit back at Mozo on Instagram after the reunion aired, accusing her of bringing up his late father to hurt him. Mozo had said she connected with Jowsey over both having lost their fathers.
Jowsey's father, Paul Jowsey, a New Zealand artist, died in December 2024 after choosing an assisted death following a terminal diagnosis. "Bringing my dad's death into an argument as a way to hurt me or create some sort of moment crossed a line," Jowsey wrote.
A source close to Jowsey said there was "no ill intention" behind his behaviour on the show, and that he was "dealing with the immense pressure of being on his own show" while grieving his father. "Harry was not perfect during filming... but his whole heart was committed to the process," the source said.
From a Queensland farm to a $10 million fortune
Jowsey now has an estimated net worth of $10 million, according to The Tab, a fortune boosted since he joined OnlyFans in February 2021.
He was raised on a farm in Queensland, Australia, in a large blended family with one brother and four older half-sisters. He has described himself as once the "worst kid at school ever," telling the Zach Sang Show he ran a fight club, made chlorine bombs and sold fake drugs made from crushed caffeine pills. He later moved to Los Angeles to grow his social media career after Too Hot to Handle.
Reconciling with an old friend
Hirschberg said he and Jowsey bonded over sharing the same birthday, May 24. The pair reunited on the August 4 episode of Howie Mandel Does Stuff after falling out in 2020, a rift Hirschberg said stemmed from a woman who "jumped from Harry to me." He called the on-air reunion "therapeutic."
Hirschberg said Jowsey may now be looking for a "next goal" beyond fame and fortune, though he questioned the narrative pushed around Let's Marry Harry that Jowsey had reformed. "It sounds like everyone has a lot to say about him, which kind of makes me think maybe he didn't change," he said.
A source close to Jowsey insisted he has "evolved" into "a genuine soul who cares deeply for his friends and loved ones." Jowsey is set to appear on a new reality show on Hulu in the coming months. The Daily Mail said it had reached out to representatives for Jowsey and Netflix for comment.
