Eliot has shared he's been up to bits of "this n that".

The 35-year-old posted this pic showing off his otherwise hidden tattoos.

He previously told 9Entertainment about the special meaning that his ink held.

Eliot said he has a few personal tattoos that hold a lot meaning to him.

"I've got a three quarter sleeve on my left arm, a tattoo on my chest – that's probably the most meaningful," he said.

"It's 'Memento Mori'," Eliot explained of his chest tattoo.

"It's a stoic philosophy phrase that just means 'remember you're going to die'," he said.

The update comes after co-star Jamie Marinos addressed her and Eliot's post-experiment relationship, explaining their connection "is not a publicity stunt".

Jamie

In May 2025, Jamie spoke with 9Entertainment to address speculation that a romance had blossomed between her and co-star Eliot Donovan following her split from MAFS husband Dave Hand.

She remained coy as she cleared up rumours but stood firm that their connection "is not a publicity stunt".

"I hang out heaps with Eliot. He's become a very good, very close person to my life so I'm really appreciative of Eliot," she began.

"I understand everyone wants an answer but we're in the real world now, so it's not like we're going to be official or announce someting tomorrow.

"I'm enjoying getting to know Eliot, I'm getting to know different people I'm just being open."
