The Married At First Sight reunion special will see some dramatic scenes on Sunday night as Davide Anica and Keye Luke will come face to face after the difficult breakdown of their relationship

The Married At First Sight UK reunion special is set to deliver some of the most emotional scenes of the series when Davide Anica comes face to face with ex-husband Keye Luke following the painful collapse of their marriage.

The same-sex couple, once hailed as the strongest match of the season, had vowed to stay together during the show’s Final Vows ceremony. Their apparent fairytale ending, however, unravelled off-screen — shocking fans when it emerged late last year that the pair had split.

Their reunion, airing Sunday night, promises raw emotion as unresolved feelings and past wounds are finally laid bare.

In a tense teaser clip, Davide opens up about the strain he carried throughout their relationship. “I did everything I could to support Keye when he was at his lowest,” he admits. “It was a lot for me to carry. I can’t carry him and myself.”

However, fans of the E4 dating show were shocked late last year when The Daily Mail revealed the pair have since gone their separate ways

Turning directly to his former partner, Davide continues with heartbreaking honesty: “I think both me and you put in the work. We tried to make it work every day, but when push came to shove, I was extremely exhausted.

“I thought what we had was real. But we became different people once we came out, and it just ended badly. I wasn’t good for you — or enough for you — in the outside world.”

An emotional Keye quietly responds, “Yes you were…,” before both men break down in tears at the table.

The emotional reunion comes months after Keye, 33, publicly admitted their marriage fell apart after he downloaded Grindr while Davide — a flight attendant — was away working. At the time, Keye said the decision had “cost me my marriage”.

He later explained he had been in a “dark and fragile place” and insisted he was not looking to cheat or meet anyone else, but was instead struggling to cope emotionally.

Keye, 33, took to his Instagram to publicly admit that their relationship crumbled after he created a Grindr profile – a mistake he explained has ‘cost me my marriage’

“I want to be clear that I was not looking to hook up or find someone else,” Keye wrote in a candid Instagram statement. “I was reaching for something unhealthy because I didn’t know how else to cope.”

Despite maintaining there was no sexual intent, Keye accepted full responsibility for breaking Davide’s trust. “Even without sexual intentions, I crossed a line,” he admitted. “When Davide found my profile, it cost me my marriage — something I carry with me every day.”

Following the scandal, Davide later appeared to soft-launch a new relationship on Instagram, sharing a video of himself cosied up with another man in a jacuzzi — a moment that confirmed the chapter with Keye was truly closed.

After news of the split became public, Davide shared his own perspective, revealing he had followed his gut instinct by creating a Grindr profile of his own — only to confirm his worst fears.

“That moment was painful,” he said. “The trust between us broke in a way I couldn’t move past. I was deeply hurt and shocked.”

Despite the heartbreak, Davide stressed he holds no bitterness and doesn’t regret his time on the experiment, saying he has since healed and found peace.

Meanwhile, Keye revealed he has been undergoing therapy and working to confront destructive coping mechanisms, saying Davide “deserves the absolute best”.

As the reunion unfolds, viewers will witness the full emotional weight of a relationship that once symbolised hope — now marked by regret, accountability, and unresolved love.
