Following the reunion, Keye shared that himself and Davide had gone their separate ways when they lost trust in their relationship. He explained: “This is incredibly difficult to share, but I have always believed in being honest, even when it is uncomfortable.
“In the early hours of a Sunday morning, while Davide was on a flight, I downloaded Grindr. I want to be clear that I was not looking to cheat, hook up, or find someone else. I was in a dark and fragile place and reached for something unhealthy because I did not know how else to cope. What I was seeking had nothing to do with intimacy. It was an attempt to escape emotions I could not sit with, and I reached for substances when what I really needed was support.
“None of this excuses my actions. I understand how it looked and I understand why it hurt. Even without sexual intentions, I crossed a line and broke trust. I hate that Davide believed I was looking for someone else, because that was never the truth. But I fully accept the impact.
“When Davide found my profile through his, it cost me my marriage. That is something I carry with me every day.
“I have nothing but love for him. What we shared was real, both in the experiment and in the months after. He deserves the absolute best, and I am devastated that my choices caused him pain.
“Since then, I have been doing the work; therapy, accountability, and learning healthier ways to cope, so I never return to destructive patterns. It has not been easy, but it has been necessary.
“Looking back, I see how lost I was. The emotions are still raw, but I am learning to face them without running, numbing, or repeating the behaviors that hurt others and myself. Now is not the time to unpack our relationship. What matters is acknowledging the truth, the love, the mistakes, and choosing to move forward with honesty and growth.”
The pair split up when Davide discovered Keye on Grindr
Davide then posted his own side of the story saying that the event happened five months ago, despite the series airing now. He said: “In light of mine and Keye’s relationship status being shared, I just wanted to speak on the situation personally.
“My time on MAFS was honestly one of the most life-changing experiences of my life. From the start I showed up as my true self, I was vulnerable, open, and completely genuine. I went into the experiment with an open heart and a real hope of finding love and I did.
“Before the experiment I had already done a lot of work on myself, especially around my boundaries and trust. Trust has always been one of my biggest boundaries and I came into this experience knowing it was something I would never compromise again.
“The night in question (this happened five months ago), I had a gut feeling something wasn’t right. Out of my own insecurity I created a profile on Grindr to check whether Keye was on the app only to find that my gut feeling was correct.
“That moment was painful and it made the trust between us break in a way I couldn’t move past. That’s why when it was broken, it was something I simply could not overcome. I won’t lie I was deeply hurt and shocked but with time, I’ve healed and found peace.
“Even through the pain I don’t regret being part of this journey. This experience pushed me to grow in ways I never expected. It taught me patience, communication and what it truly means to choose yourself after heartbreak.
“I don’t hold any bitterness towards Keye, he has taken accountability for his actions and I respect that. I genuinely wish him peace and happiness.
“Sometimes love doesn’t end the way we hope but it still leaves behind lessons that shape you for the better, for that I’ll always be grateful.”

Keye later revealed on an Instagram story posted on Monday, November 17 that the pair are no longer speaking as friends either. He explained that he hopes one day they will be able to form a platonic relationship, however he understands that there is still a lot of hurt on both sides. He then went on to wish his former partner “nothing but love and happiness.”
However, Keye and Davide aren’t the only couple to share the news of their split since the reunion episode was aired.
On Sunday, November 16, Bailey shared a lengthy post announcing that him and Rebecca had also broken up, whilst also disputing the rumours which have spiralled online since the series aired.
He explained: “Unfortunately it’s time to share that Bec and I are no longer together…
“We tried our best to navigate life after the experiment, and although we spent a lot of great time together on the outside, unfortunately the relationship came to an end. I still have a lot of love for Bec and I’m grateful for the amazing relationship we shared. I had fallen for Bec completely and it really was a true love story.
“I won’t lie, watching us fall in love all over again on screen has been ridiculously hard to go through and it’s something I’m still struggling with now. But I wouldn’t have changed any of it!
“Sadly I also have to address the various different false online allegations constantly being spread about me since the start of MAFS, which have been hard to deal with. I want to make it very clear, I never cheated on Bec at any point. I didn’t handle our break up well and for that I’m truly sorry to Bec, but I was completely loyal the whole way through our relationship.
“I’m not perfect, I don’t claim to be and I take responsibility for my part in why the relationship didn’t work. Making the decision to end things was heartbreaking and not a decision that I took lightly.
“I’m still heartbroken, but I wish Bec all the best and I always will.”
