Fans of Married At First Sight UK have been left heartbroken as one of the show's strongest couples, Keye and Davide, have officially confirmed their split. The relationship breakdown came after Davide made the shocking discovery of Keye's active profile on the dating app Grindr.
The Discovery That Ended the Marriage
Davide took to Instagram to personally address the situation, revealing that he had experienced a gut feeling months ago that something wasn't right in their relationship. Acting on this intuition, he created a Grindr account to check whether his husband was using the platform.
Tragically, Davide's fears were confirmed when he found Keye's profile on the dating application. Speaking about that painful moment, Davide explained: "That moment was painful and it made the trust between us break in a way I couldn't move past." Despite the hurt, Davide shared that he has since healed and found peace, growing from the experience in unexpected ways.
Keye's Explanation and Regret
Meanwhile, Keye provided his own detailed account of what led him to download the controversial dating app. He explained that while Davide was away working, he found himself in a dark and fragile place emotionally.
Keye insisted he wasn't looking to cheat, hook up, or find someone else, but acknowledged the devastating consequences of his actions. "It cost me my marriage," he stated heartbreakingly. The reality star revealed he's now in therapy to develop healthier coping mechanisms and avoid returning to destructive patterns.
Where They Stand Now
During a follow-up Instagram Q&A with followers, Keye addressed whether they maintain any friendship. He revealed they're not currently speaking, but expressed hope that time might eventually allow for friendship.
Keye acknowledged the hurt on both sides, but maintained a respectful tone: "But even if we aren't friends, I wish him nothing but love and happiness and I know he wishes me the same. Even if we never get to that point, we still get to live in a world where we shared an amazing love together. That in itself is an absolute blessing."
The split marks a sad conclusion for a couple who had shown remarkable promise throughout the experiment, making it all the way to Final Vows and the reunion episode before this discovery led to their ultimate separation.
