Hear ye, hear ye! It appears that Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2025 has been rocked by another couple swap, and I am totally down with the get down on these two hot bombshells linking up!
After weeks upon weeks of speculation, insiders who say they’re close to MAFS‘ Jamie Marinos and Eliot Donovan have claimed they’re “officially together”.
Speaking to Woman’s Day, an anonymous MAFS contestant dished the tea on Jamie and Eliot’s new relationship status.


“This isn’t just a fling. They’re very much in it for real,” they said.
“Jamie was supposed to stay in separate accommodation on the Gold Coast this week, but she cancelled her plans to spend the week with Eliot instead.
“Jamie has been ‘incognito’ since arriving on the Gold Coast and was planning to try to keep this from everyone, as they really want to make a serious go of this.”
Another source added that “sparks flew” when the pair first linked up post-production and that they’ve evolved from “mates to full couple mode”.
“It’s been a bit of a whirlwind, but it feels natural for them,” the source insider spilled.
One source also described the fresh couple swap as a “Jules [Robinson] and Cam [Merchant]” situation!
“Once again, the matchmakers got it wrong, but love found a way!” the insider said.
“Viewers are expected to be rooting for them as this news breaks.”
When did the Eliot Donovan and Jamie Marinos relationship rumours start?
Rumours of a romance first began to brew when the MAFS 2025 season came to a close in early April. Shortly after the Reunion episode, Jamie and Eliot posted a cheeky TikTok where they shared coconut water in bed.
When asked about this potential couple swap in early April, Jamie told PEDESTRIAN.TV where she and the groom were good friends in the experiment.
“I’ve been in my hot girl single era,” Jamie dished.
“Elliot and I were actually quite good friends in the experiment.
“Since then, he’s been such a good support person — a friend.”
Dave Hand responds to the Eliot Donovan and Jamie Marinos relationship rumours
To give you a quick recap, Jamie was originally matched with Dave Hand on the show. At the start of the season, the pair were teeing up to become one of this year’s success stories. However, after Jamie confessed her love to her groom, Dave seemingly pulled back from the relationship.
After he was called out by his fellow co-stars and the experts for his sudden coldness towards Jamie, the pair worked together to make their relationship work, which led to them committing to each other at Final Vows. However, at the Reunion, Jamie and Dave revealed that they’ve broken up as they failed to form an emotional connection in the real world.

Weeks after the Reunion episode, Jamie revealed that she’s no longer in touch with Dave, hinting at a bitter relationship/friendship breakdown between the former MAFS flames.
In a recent Q&A, Dave responded to the Eliot and Jamie relationship rumours whilst throwing shade towards her previous romantic connection with intruder groom Teejay Halkias.
“‘What’s your thoughts on Jamie and Eliot getting together?’ Honestly, I don’t have any thoughts on it,” Dave began.


“I don’t care. But, I highly doubt she’s gonna sleep with three cast members from this year’s season. I think it’s just the TikTok, Instagram thingo whatever they’re doing.”
So, are Jamie Marinos and Eliot Donovan really together?
Well, the pair haven’t confirmed anything JUST YET. However, Eliot did share a video with Jamie on TikTok, shading Dave and his response to the rumours.
Take a peep below for the cheeky swipe!
But as soon as that hard launch drops, we’ll be reporting live from PEDESTRIAN.TV.
