The Married At First Sight Australia cheating scandal between Davina Rankin and Dean Wells just keeps getting bigger and bigger. This week has seen the pair (who are married to Ryan Gallagher and Tracey Jewel) take their ‘affair’ one step further by admitting their feelings to each other and agreeing to “pursue it”.
At last night’s dinner party, they stepped away from the rest of the group to cuddle and talk about their attraction to each other, while Ryan and Tracey were completely unaware.
“I want to kiss you so bad,” Davina repeatedly told Dean in private.
Ryan appeared on the Today show in Australia, telling hosts Karl Stefanovic and Georgie Gardner that watching it all unfold has been hard.
Davina and Dean can’t stay away from each other.
The 29-year-old tradie said he went into the experiment with his heart wide open, but it backfired on him, leaving him feeling “like an idiot”.
“I feel like an idiot because I didn’t know what was going on,” he said.
“To get a tattoo with someone who is doing that – I sort of feel like a bit of a dipstick.”
He also confirmed that the two don’t end up together.
“It’s not the best outcome,” he said.
Davina and Ryan got off to a rocky start in their marriage.
Ryan’s confession comes in the same week that shocking off air behaviour between this season’s couples has been revealed. Producers reportedly had to be called in to break up a wild party which is said to have involved brawling and sex between an unmatched couple.

Judging by the promos for the next commitment ceremony, Dean and Davina’s secret appears to be exposed.
“There is that fire in the belly with Davina that I haven’t had with Tracey,” Dean explains to the cameras.
“But after the dinner party Tracey and I had fun, it was intense.”
The video cuts to Nasser Sultan saying angrily: “He’s played you and he’s played her.”
Yes, the next episode is going to be BIG.
