‘It was soul-destroying’: David Cannon says he regrets going on Married At First Sight and calls anyone wanting to follow in his footsteps an ‘idiot’
After a tumultuous relationship with Haley Vernon on Married At First Sight, David Cannon has said he wishes he’d never gone on the popular Channel Nine show.
While answering questions from fans during a Q&A on Instagram, the 31-year-old was asked: ‘Do you regret MAFS?’
‘100 percent I do. It was a f**king soul-destroying experience,’ the horse trainer said without hesitation.

‘Anyone that decides to go on there, you’re a f**king idiot,’ he continued.
He then went on to say that if he’d seen the program beforehand that he never would have applied to go on in the first place.
‘I didn’t watch the show before I went on… I wish I had of, that’s for sure,’ he concluded.

David made headlines during his time on the show for the ‘toothbrush scandal’, using his bride Hayley’s toothbrush to clean faecal matter from a toilet.
Before this Hayley had admitted to cheating on him, saying she ‘macked on’ with Stacey Hampton’s ‘husband’ Michael Goonan.
He opened up about the incident on the Not Here to Make Friends podcast, earlier this month.

‘About three days after the cheating scandal happens, I’ve heard nothing from Hayley and I’m in a really dark place,’ he began.
‘I still had her room key, and that’s when I did something really childish. I regret it now because I’ve lowered myself to her level.’
The pair were forced to leave the show following the scandal despite Hayley voting to stay in order to punish David.
