Jamie Marinos Reveals Dave Hand ‘Ghosted’ Her Amid Rumors with Eliot Donovan
In a surprising turn of events, Married At First Sight cast member Jamie Marinos left fans in disbelief when she disclosed that her past relationship with Dave Hand had come to an end following his sudden disappearance from her life, a phenomenon commonly known as “ghosting,” after the series concluded.
Initially in the series, it seemed as if the audience-preferred characters shared a deep, romantic bond. However, this relationship didn’t last, but the tall handyman, aged 36, firmly expressed his desire to remain part of his partner’s life.
Yet, it has been disclosed by Jamie, aged 28, that Dave failed to fulfill his commitments and lacked effort in preserving their friendship beyond the experiment, as reported by Yahoo Lifestyle on Tuesday.
In my expertise as a lifestyle advisor, I’d put it like this: “I strongly felt that he valued our friendship and didn’t want to let it go. However, following our reunion, his actions seemed to indicate a gradual distancing or fading away from me.” This conveys the same sentiment in a more conversational and first-person narrative style.
Initially, I reached out to him, saying something along the lines of, “It seems you were very eager about involving me in your world.” However, when I pointed out his lack of action, our relationship improved somewhat, yet he didn’t show any intention of meeting up with me.
‘We did see each other for dinner once, but the friendship just dissipated.’
Jamie implied that, upon rewatching the show, she felt that Dave had merely pledged a mediocre level of friendship to uphold a favorable public persona among viewers.
It seems that Jamie, after parting ways with her on-screen spouse Dave, has developed affection for her fellow actor Eliot Donovan.
The television personality was spotted beaming broadly while conversing with the ex-groom, only a few days following an incident where they were caught sharing a bed.
Over the weekend, there were whispers as Jamie, age 35, and Eliot, previously paired with Veronica Cloherty, spent the night together at Daily Mail Australia’s private gathering, sparking rumors.
Earlier in the week, Eliot posted six TikTok videos filmed at the Ovolo Hotel in Woolloomooloo, implying that they had spent their Saturday night there together.
Fellow MAFS brides Awhina Rutene and Beth Kelly also appeared in several of the cheeky videos.
However, the video that truly fueled the gossip was one featuring Jamie’s former partner, Dave, casually sipping on a bottle of coconut water, which appeared to be harmless.
A fan of MAFS expressed their affection for coconut water regarding Dave’s TikTok post, which later led to a humorous reaction video by both Jamie and Eliot.
It appears they indeed spent a night together, as Jamie and Eliot recorded themselves cuddled up in the hotel bed, both donning bathrobes and sunglasses.
Each one lifted a bottle of coconut water in a toast, and titled the video: ‘Sipping coconut water solo is fine… But savoring it with companions is simply superior.’
‘Can confirm she does love @cocobella,’ Eliot captioned the post.
In a playful video, Jamie, Beth, and Awhina displayed a familiar gesture towards their former spouses, all while soaking in a bathtub at a hotel.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you need any more assistance.
Best regards,
Your Assistant
In a playful scene, the trio of unmarried women sat comfortably side by side within the bathtub, and at the conclusion of the recording, Eliot emerged briefly from beneath the water’s surface.
Eliot, too, dabbled with a drag character named ‘Smelliota’, joining the group in their collective transformation for the party, as they all got dolled up.
On the Nine’s Today Show on Tuesday, Jamie finally spoke up regarding rumors about her relationship.
When questioned by Karl Stefanovic and Sarah Abo about her relationship status with ex-husband Eliot, Jamie gave a shy laugh in response.
After that, she told the morning radio hosts that she hadn’t met up with the Queensland-based business owner since their reunion dinner, which took place on Sunday evening.
During the movie-making process, it was disclosed that Jamie and his co-star became quite close friends, a bond that persisted beyond the set. Furthermore, there were subtle suggestions that they might be exploring a romantic relationship in the future.
‘I mean, it’s not the worst thing that could happen,’ she said.
50-year-old Karl enthusiastically replied with “Oh, absolutely!” and did a small jig in anticipation of another potential coupling after MAFS.
‘I mean, he’s only human guys,’ Jamie quipped, as the presenters let out a chuckle.
Yet, Sarah, aged 39, proceeded to warm up the subject, inquiring whether a connection might flourish between the seemingly unsuitable pair, Jamie.
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’.
