Married At First Sight star Jamie Marinos shocked fans when she revealed her once blossoming relationship with Dave Hand ended in him ‘ghosting’ her after the show wrapped.

The fan-favourites appeared to have a true love connection early on in the series, and while their romantic connection ultimately fell apart, the towering tradie, 36, was adamant he wanted to stay in his bride’s life.

However, Jamie, 28, has now revealed Dave couldn’t make good on his promises and put no effort into maintaining their friendship outside the experiment, reported Yahoo Lifestyle on Tuesday.

‘Dave was really big on, “I don’t want to lose you and I don’t want to lose this friendship.” I truly believe that he really wanted me in his life, but he did kind of ghost me a bit after the reunion,’ she told the publication.

‘I was contacting him. I was like, “You’re the one that was really keen on having me in your life.” When I called him out on it, we kind of got to a better place, but he had made no effort to see me.

‘We did see each other for dinner once, but the friendship just dissipated.’

Jamie went on to say watching the show back made her believe Dave only promised a ‘lacklustre friendship’ to maintain a positive public image with viewers.

It comes as Jamie appears to be smitten with her co-star Eliot Donovan following her split with her TV husband Dave.

The reality star was seen with a giant smile plastered across her face as she chatted to the former groom just a few days after the pair were discovered in bed together.

Jamie and Eliot, 35, who was initially partnered with Veronica Cloherty, sent tongues wagging over the weekend after they shared a bed before Daily Mail Australia’s exclusive reunion party.

And earlier this week, Eliot went on to share six TikToks filmed at the Ovolo Hotel in Woolloomooloo, confirming they spent Saturday night together.

Fellow MAFS brides Awhina Rutene and Beth Kelly also appeared in several of the cheeky videos.

But the clip which really wound up the rumour mill was a stitch with Jamie’s ex Dave, who posted an innocent video of himself drinking a bottle of coconut water.

‘Jamie loves coconut water,’ one MAFS fan commented on Dave’s TikTok, inspiring a comedic response video from Jamie and Eliot.

Seemingly confirming the pair spent the night together, Jamie and Eliot filmed themselves cosied up in the hotel bed together wearing matching bathrobes and sunglasses.

They each raised a bottle of coconut water in a cheers motion and captioned the video: ‘Drinking coconut water alone is good… Drinking it together is even better.’

‘Can confirm she does love @cocobella,’ Eliot captioned the post.

In another humorous clip, Jamie, Beth, and Awhina held middle fingers up ‘to our ex-husbands and wives’, from the hotel room bathtub.

The three single ladies perched together in the bathtub, with Eliot popping his head up from inside the tub at the end of the video.

Eliot also tried his hand at a drag persona called ‘Smelliota’ as the foursome got glammed up together for the party.

Jamie broke her silence on speculation about their relationship as she appeared on Nine’s Today Show on Tuesday.

When asked if she was ‘on’ with former groom Eliot by Karl Stefanovic and Sarah Abo, Jamie let out a nervous giggle.

She then informed the breakfast show hosts she hadn’t seen the Queensland-based business-owner since the reunion dinner, which was held on Sunday night.

Jamie went on to reveal the pair developed a close friendship during filming which has since carried into real life, before hinting at romance on the horizon.

‘I mean, it’s not the worst thing that could happen,’ she said.

Karl, 50, let out an ‘oh yeah’ at the flirty response and had a little dance at the prospect of another post-MAFS couple swap.

‘I mean, he’s only human guys,’ Jamie quipped, as the presenters let out a chuckle.

However, Sarah, 39, then turned the heat on Jamie, asking if something could blossom between the unlikely duo.

Of course, in typical Jamie fashion, she turned to humour to dodge the question.

‘We would make the funniest TikToks!’ she said, adding they would ‘break the internet’.
