viewers were left stunned after seeing groom Dave Hand and fellow Veronica Cloherty getting cosy during the controversial swap week. Now, after rife speculation, the pair have come clean about what truly happened in those questionable scenes in the bedroom.
Golden Dave and Jamie Marinos were one of the strongest couples in the E4 dating experiment, with Jamie being vocal about her feelings for hunky builder Dave in the first few weeks - even telling him she loves him. But Dave's actions with fellow bride Veronica, who was married to Eliot, left people shocked.
Following on from Dave confessing that his feelings towards his wife had changed, the couple then took part in Feedback Week, which involved them swapping partners for a few days - and fans started to speculate what really went on between Dave and Veronica.

Dave started to cosy up to Veronica, and Jamie was left in tears watching as her marriage started to fall apart. It's no secret that Dave and Veronica got on well from the start, but in one scene, viewers watched as they lay laughing in bed. Fans speculated that something went on between the pair while they were in bed, and following on from rumours of an affair, Jamie spoke out about her husband and Veronica's relationship.
Jamie told of her feelings towards the bride and said: "[Veronica] didn’t put my mind at ease. I don’t think Veronica knows how to be a friend. She had made comments that she thought highly of Dave… obviously she was flirting her a** off."
Now Dave has set the record staright and broke his silence. He revealed: "'’m not going to sleep with someone jumping in my bed for one or two nights, it’s not how it works, especially when I’m married to someone else. It’s a bit ridiculous that people would think that, but yeah, it definitely goes against my morals."

He also said during the show he was "totally committed" to Jamie in the experiment and wouldn't jeopardise that. Veronica also shared her side and told : "I find it so hilarious that this whole thing is circulating in this way. I've actually been abstinent for almost two years.
"I think everyone is just looking for someone to blame, to be honest, and I'm an easy target given how everything's been unfolding for me recently. Also, you have to remember, I'd just been back from Melbourne, I did the retreat, did the dinner party, did the commitment ceremony, and I was exhausted. So to hang out with someone else was quite refreshing. That's all it was." She said she and Dave 'get on' and it was a 'stark contrast' to her relationship with Eliot.
Sadly, it didn't work out for either of the couples, and neither could make their relationships last, with both ending before the final episode. Speaking about why she chose to break-up with Dave, Jamie told : "You can't glorify bare minimum behaviour. You can't say yes to subpar treatment. We all deserved better – and I think a lot of us were settling."
She added: "I do think he respected my emotions. But I don't think he liked being the bad guy. He thought it was easier to keep me sweet – but when you're not honest, you actually end up becoming the worst guy."
