MAFS star Dom has revealed that she’s extending her trip in Europe so that she can spend more time with an Italian man that she met recently on the island of Capri.
The reality star, who is currently in Paris, shared the juicy bombshell on her and Ella Ding’s podcast Sit With Us.
“There’s a little something that’s happened while I’ve been in Europe, and it’s quite nice,” she said. “And it comes in the form of a man that we met on the island of Capri.”
Dom told listeners that her new love interest doesn’t speak much English, but that they communicate through looks and a translator app.
“He doesn’t really speak English and I don’t really speak that much Italian, so the language barrier is actually hilarious,” she explained. “But there’s something about it that just works.
“When we video [chat], we communicate just through look. It’s the weirdest thing, I don’t even know how to explain it.”
The 29-year-old said that after initially meeting the man in Capri, she arranged a quick catch up with him at a quaint Italian train station cafe where she was dining with her mum.

“We sat in this little café at the train station and my mum was literally just sitting with us helping to translate,” she said. “We talked about everything, but the way we just looked at each other, I feel like we communicated through that.
“We didn’t kiss, he just gave me a hug. Then he messaged me when I was on the train after we’d left and he said, ‘I really wanted to kiss you but your mum was there’, which was really cute.”
“It’s so weird and new to me because I’ve never had a man do anything nice like that,” she gushed.
After their two initial encounters, Dom said she and the man flew to Florence to meet up with her again.
“It was the best day ever. He got in early, I went to meet him at nine o’clock, and then we went and had breakfast and we walked around and literally my phone the entire day was like the translator when we couldn’t speak.
“He is very thoughtful and romantic, which I don’t know if that’s weird to say because we’ve literally only met a few times and gone on a few dates… He’s done more in two dates than a lot of men that I’ve dated recently.”
Dom was paired with Jack on season nine of MAFS. While the couple were fan favourites and agreed to stay together at final vows, they broke up shortly after. Jack is now dating Love Island contestant Courtney Stubbs.
