‘I Was Getting the Attention’: David Trimble Sparks Outrage After Admitting the Reason for His Affair on ‘Married at First Sight’

The drama unfolds on Married at First Sight as David Trimble faces the consequences of his affair with Madison Myers. In an exclusive first look at the Feb. 25 “Decision Day” episode, viewers witness an intense confrontation between David and Thomas McDonald over the scandal that rocked the season. David, who shows no remorse, listens as Thomas holds him accountable for his behavior. “For me, it’s important as a friend — if I call myself a friend to you — to hold you accountable because that’s what friends do,” Thomas states. David, unfazed, responds, “100%.”

As the conversation deepens, Thomas presses David for answers regarding the timeline of his relationship with Madison. Seeking clarity, he asks whether it was a long-time thing or if it eventually started with friendship. David confesses that his relationship with Madison began at the gym as a friendship before evolving into something more. “I was getting the communication, I was getting the attention, and just asking questions of who I was,” he explains, hinting that his connection with Madison filled a void left by Michelle.

The Affair Unfolds and Madison Defends Their Relationship

Meanwhile, Madison defends her actions, insisting that her situation with Allen was vastly different from David and Michelle’s. “I think all of us knew that Michelle and David were not going to be together at the end of this. She didn’t give a s— about David,” Madison claims, causing a stir among the cast. Michelle, clearly taken aback, reacts to Madison’s comments while pouring a drink at the bar. “You want to wait ‘til I get over there?” she asks. Madison, not backing down, replies, “Sure, come sit down, I’ll gladly say it.”

Earlier this month, Madison admitted that her feelings for David had grown beyond friendship. In a candid conversation, she revealed, “I do like you, probably more than I should. I just wanted to be honest with you, and I don’t think that I can probably continue in my marriage personally.” She acknowledged the messiness of the situation but also expressed hope for a future with David. “I don’t think it’s fair to Allen, and I know that it’s messy, but I think that this could be something.”
