What happened between Dave and Veronica?
During Feedback Week on MAFS Australia, Dave and Veronica were coupled up together where they appeared to get on like a house on fire.
In one ambiguous scene viewers watched as the two laughed in bed and looked very cosy, leading many to believe something went on between the pair.
Following rumours of an affair, Jamie told Chattr of her feelings towards the bride, saying:
"[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."
With all of this speculation, Dave broke his silence and revealed what really went on between him and Veronica.

The TV star told the publication: "I’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 he was "totally committed" to Jamie whilst in the experiment and wouldn't jeopardise that.
Veronica also spoke out regarding the rumours, telling Yahoo: "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."
She added: "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 went on to praise Dave, saying: "Yeah, fine. We get on. So it's good. I am having a good time. I'm not going to deny that. It's a stark contrast to my relationship with Eliot."
Following their time in the experiment, neither Veronica and Eliot nor Jamie and Dave could make their relationships last, with both couples splitting before the final episode.
Speaking about why she chose to break-up with Dave, Jamie told Daily Mail: "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."
