Everything we know about MAFS' new fan favourite groom Dave Thomas

MAFS is known for casting some controversial characters, and we all know by now we can't make judgements too early on in the season because you never know what's going to happen next — but so far, early on this season, people are throwing their support behind new groom Dave Thomas after his heartfelt wedding to Jamie Marinos.

While I'm personally crossing my fingers he won't get cancelled, things are so far going pretty smoothly for Dave and Jamie who hit it off on their wedding day and fans are already loving the match.

"Love these two. He seems like a gentle kind soul. Hope it works out," one person remarked following their wedding, with another saying, "He's a great catch. I hope it works out for these two!"

What do we know about MAFS' big friendly giant Dave Thomas?

The Melbourne based tradie stands at a huge 6'6 feet tall (198cm), 118kg, and owns his own caulking business.

He says people tend to judge him on his appearance, saying people will see him on the street and assume he's "trouble" and described himself as reserved and a bit insecure.

Dave's connection to MAFS' Jack Dunkley

Meanwhile, former groom Jack Dunkley has shared a video of Dave, alluding to the fact the two are mates in real life and wishing him luck on his MAFS journey.

"From day one of the archives," Jack captioned the video. "The big fella gearing up for the big dance. This guy is going to tear it up, wishing you all the best, bro. P.S, go easy on John for me."

In the video, Dave is seen talking to the camera seemingly before he meets Jamie.
