Eliot did an impression of Dave, complete with nose ring

We’ve got yet another love triangle on this season of MAFS Australia, this time including Dave Hand, his show wife Jamie Marinos, and her new boo – Australia’s most controversial groom – Eliot Donovan.

Eliot has single-handedly dated three members of the MAFS Australia 2025 cast, and funnily enough, so has Jamie! After filming a few cheeky TikToks together and hanging out with their co-stars, a source confirmed the romance earlier this month to Dave’s clear surprise.

“This isn’t just a fling. They’re very much in it for real,” an unnamed MAFS co-star said.

Though he did put on a brave face for an Instagram Q&A, Dave could barely hide his frustration as he clapped back: “Honestly, I don’t have any thoughts on it. I couldn’t give a- I don’t care. I wholly doubt she’s going to sleep with three cast members from this year’s season. I think it’s just a TikTok Instagram thing, whatever they’re doing.”

But if we’ve learned one thing from this crop of reality TV icons, it’s that they can’t let sleeping dogs lie. Naturally, Jamie and Eliot have since poked fun at Dave on socials – take a gander.

MAFS’ Eliot and Jamie take aim at Dave

Dave and Jamie’s relationship utterly combusted in the final few weeks of MAFS, something we UK viewers are starting to watch now, so why can’t Jamie move on with another groom from the show? Jacqui Burfoot has done it, and if it’s good enough for Miss Billion Dollars, it should be good enough for Jamie.

After seeing Dave’s impromptu question time on Instagram, Eliot commented underneath the video: “Slut shaming? Sounds like he does hate the girl.”

But it didn’t stop there, as petty king Eliot soon posted TikTok after TikTok that seemed to address the bubbling MAFS drama. In one, which appeared to be Jamie and him on a rollercoaster, the couple laughed and giggled alongside the floating words, “God forbid I don’t hate the girl.”

In his most recent TikTok, Eliot covered himself in more tattoos, a nose ring, and a backwards cap as he imitated Dave’s initial clap back alongside the caption, “POV: You are completely unbothered about your ex moving on after you love bombed her on TV.”

Jamie has been eerily silent on her socials, but in her place, other members of the MAFS cast have added to the dumpster fire that is Jamie and Dave’s marriage. For instance, Teejay Halkias featured in a “girlfriend reveal” video on Eliot’s page, and our resident red flag, Adrian, did his own cheeky takedown.

Poor Dave.
