The pair first sparked romance rumours in December last year when they attended the AACTA Awards together in Sydney.

While they never confirmed their relationship, they were spotted again looking cosy at the Sydney Tennis Classic in January, where Matt was competing.

Matt, or ‘Reidy’ as he is known on the pro-tennis circuit, was the first romance prospect for Rebel in the wake of her split from previous boyfriend Jacob Busch.
