The couple’s public outing appears to confirm Keira won’t find lasting love on the third season of Bachelor in Paradise, which premieres on July 15.

While they hadn’t posted any photos of each other, it was clear from their respective accounts they had been spending time together.
Their uploads documented their visits to the same venues at the same time – and it’s likely they’ve been taking each others photos.
Keira has since deleted several posts from her account that obviously correlated, in terms of time and place, to posts from Matthew profile.
In March, Keira uploaded a photo of herself at Melbourne’s Pink. The Restaurant. A few weeks later, Matthew posted a ‘latergram’ of himself at the same venue.
In early June, Keira took a selfie while getting her hair done at Edwards and Co. in Fitzroy, and Matthew uploaded a snap from what appeared to be the chair next to hers.
Date night? In late June, Matt shared a photo taken by his ‘mystery woman’, who was sitting across the table with an Aperol spritz cocktail in view (left). At about the same time, Keira uploaded a picture from the same venue – and lo and behold, she was holding an Aperol spritz
An open secret? Matthew’s Love Island co-star Eoghann Murphy cheekily commented, ‘Who took the photo?’ Another friend responded: ‘Keira did!’

Cheers! The couple have also shared near-identical photos from their favourite cafe, Legacy Camberwell. These photos even had the same car parked in the background
On July 3, Keira and Matthew both posted photos of themselves picking up take-away coffee from the Legacy Camberwell cafe.
Several key background details, including the paper bag and coffee cups, were identical.
At the time, a fan asked Matthew on Instagram: ‘Were you having coffee with Keira? I just saw her post… same table and same windows in background.’
The pair have never responded to such questions.
