After surviving one of Married at First Sight’s most shocking scandals, David is ready to meet his girlfriend’s dad.
During the Tuesday, March 25, episode of Lifetime’s reality show, David, 37, decided to enjoy an evening out with his parents and his partner Madison, 31. Along for the ride, however, was Madison’s dad, Mark.
“Mark the silver fox is coming in,” David shared in a confessional interview. “I’m a little nervous. It’s the pops. That is your woman’s father and you always want acceptance and you want to hear the affirmation that he has about our love.”

“That was a little shocking,” he later shared in a private interview. “It’s premature but the heart wants what it wants, and if you know, you know.”
As if he hadn’t been through enough surprises, Mark proceeded to have a private conversation with David for the very first time.
“I just wanted to thank you for being an amazing father to Madison,” David began by saying. “She is the woman of my dreams and I wish she was the woman who walked down the aisle. Everything happens for a reason.”
During Season 18 of Married at First Sight, experts Dr. Pepper Schwartz, Pastor Cal Roberson and Dr. Pia Goff initially matched David up with Michelle while Madison was paired with Allen.
During the season, however, David and Madison developed feelings for each other and decided to divorce their partners before pursuing a romantic relationship after the show.
“We have talked about marriage,” David warned his possible future father-in-law. “That is something that will be coming down the line. I will be asking for your blessing.”
Fortunately, Madison’s dad was supportive of the relationship and expressed excitement for what was to come.
“She obviously looked at you and knew that something was right there,” he explained. “I’m so happy that Madison has finally found somebody who she is comfortable with and happy. You are a fantastic man. I think you are the perfect mix for her.”
