Keye revealed the trust between them has been broken and the steps he took to explain his behaviour to Davide
MARRIED At First Sight star Davide Anica has taken a cryptic swipe at ex-husband Keye Luke, dashing hopes of a reunion.
Earlier this week, Keye admitted he’d love a second chance with Davide after he was dumped for using the app Grindr while they were together.
Davide has since lifted the lid on little known facts about himself in a candid Instagram post, and some could be taken as a dig at his ex.
Alongside a clip of him relaxing in bed, Davide admitted: “Being yelled at makes me shut down.
“I take every word and everything to heart.
“I used to give too many chances.
“I remember more negative things said to me than positive.”
In a heartfelt caption, he told fans he is “growing, healing, unlearning…and still showing up with my whole heart even when it’s bruised.”
He added: “If you’ve ever been the ‘strong friend’ who disappears to recharge… the overthinker who cares a little too much… the one who loves with your entire chest even after being let down.
“Yeah, this one’s for us. You are not broken. We’re just human. And we keep going.”
Marketing manager Keye, 33, made light of his app scandal on the Avoiding My Anxiously Attached Boyfriend podcast, before admitting he wanted to make amends with Davide.
He joked: “I was already rinsing through my savings, it’s Grindr, we all know you can get things for free if you’re pretty.”
But as the conversation continued, he delved deeper into details of their split, which Davide initiated while he was abroad in the States.
He admitted: “He was in a different country at the time, I think he was flying to Atlanta.
“So he dumped me over text, because obviously that’s all we had, and then he blocked me on everything. So there was no coming back.”
He continued: “Obviously it was a five month period from breaking up to this point now.
“Between then there’s been period’s he’s unblocked, there’s been periods where we tried to chat and it just wasn’t going anywhere.
“I think once the trust is broken – the trust is broken.”
He accepted he was at fault in the situation, and explained the lengths he went to to apologise.
Keye wrote a four page letter addressing his error but it wasn’t enough to win Davide back.
He added: “I’m not going to pretend if he didn’t knock on the door and asked for me back now I wouldn’t be going back”.
His admission followed Davide’s exclusive interview with The Sun where he shared his side of the story.
“I don’t know if he actually slept with somebody or not. He says that he hasn’t, but after that, for me there was no more trust – I just couldn’t see past it, ” Davide told us.
“I’m not saying that he cheated. What I’m saying is he broke my trust. And once you break it like glass, even if you fix it, it will always leak.”
Davide claims he caught Keye out by setting up his own Grindr profile to see if his then-husband was online.
“We were struggling as a couple after the experiment,” he admitted. “It was difficult to manage the normal world. I was travelling a lot in my job as a flight attendant, and there was a lot to navigate”
“On the night I found him on the app, I I had the feeling something was wrong. I was abroad, and he wasn’t answering my calls, he wasn’t messaging me, but he was posting on social media. Hence why I was like, something is not right here.
“I’ve been in this situation prior in the past, so I had to check. And when I found him [on Grindr] that was it. There was so much hurt on my end that I just couldn’t overcome.”
Their split took MAFS fans by shock, as the couple appeared to be one of the strongest on this year’s installment.
Keye admitted in a statement: “I downloaded Grindr in the early hours of a Sunday morning while Davide was on a flight. I wasn’t there looking to cheat, hook up, or find anyone else.
“I was in a really dark place back then, and I turned to something unhealthy because I didn’t know how to cope.
“It had nothing to do with wanting someone else, it was about trying to numb myself and escape what I was feeling.”
Keye continued: “I know how it looked, and I know it broke trust.

“Even if my intentions weren’t sexual, I still crossed a line. I hate that Davide thought I was out there looking for someone else, because that was never what I was doing.
“I was just lost, and I made a terrible decision. Davide found me with his profile and it cost me my marriage.”
