See the telling signs that are fuelling speculation one of footy's biggest stars has split with his AFLW girlfriend
The West Coast Eagles midfielder, 20, has been dating Yasmin Duursma since January last year - but the footballers appear to have split.
Duursma plays for Carlton in the AFLW, and the pair have known one another since their pre-teens after both growing up in Victoria.
A quick search of Reid's Instagram page reveals the rising star has removed Duursma's initials from his Instagram bio - while Duursma has deleted pictures of the pair from her own feed.
The couple made their red carpet debut together at last year's Brownlow Medal.
Meanwhile, speculation is mounting that Reid could sign the 'biggest deal in AFL history' with West Coast.

AFL Media reporter Cal Twomey told Footy Classified this week it was 'crunch time' when it comes to Reid's future in Western Australia.
'He's had contract offers in front of him since April that have come from the Eagles,' Twomey said.
'But in recent weeks, his management have sent counter offers to the Eagles – and a part of that includes a mammoth offer that would be a two-year extension, plus an extension on top of that of another nine years.
'So an 11-year arrangement. 'This is ground-breaking, really, it would be the biggest deal in AFL history by some way and it would take him through to the end of 2037.
'(We are talking) $20 million-plus would be on the table.'
Hawthorn and Geelong - who Reid supported as a child - are also said to be interested in securing his services.
If struggling West Coast - who have only won one game this AFL season - and Reid agreed to the bumper deal tabled by his management, it would be similar to the contract offered to Port Adelaide's Miles Bergman.
Bergman, 23, inked a two-year deal in July and can sign for an extra seven years with the Power if he chooses.

The film so controversial it was banned in four different countries - and you're bound to recognise the director
There is a film so controversial that it has been banned in four countries - and you're bound to recognise its director. Pink Flamingos, a surrealist black comedy movie, first hit the big screen in 1972. The blockbuster follows the life of drag queen Divine (played by Divine, real name Harris Glenn Milstead) who pretends to be someone called Babs Johnson, after taking part in some very illicit activities. IMDB's synopsis reads: 'Notorious Baltimore criminal and underground figure Divine goes up against a sleazy married couple who make a passionate attempt to humiliate her and seize her tabloid-given title as "The Filthiest Person Alive".' Throughout the film she performs a number of acts that are very shocking, including killing people, eating dog faeces and taking part in an incestuous sex act with her son. The film also includes bestiality (sex between a human and animal) and necrophilia (sex between a human and dead person) too. It caused such a shock among viewers that it was banned in four countries. These include Switzerland, Australia, Canada and Norway. Pink Flamingos stars Divine as Divine/Babs Johnson, David Lochary as Raymond Marble, May Vivian Pearce as Cotton, Mink Stole as Connie Marble, Danny Mills as Crackers and Edith Massey as Edie. Despite the negativity surrounding the movie, it has received 84% on Rotten Tomatoes. Slant Magazine's Eric Henderson said: 'Of course, every battle in their filth war is quite obviously filtered through John Waters's legendarily up-is-down, wrong-is-right sense of humor.' Miami Herlad's Rene Rodriquez: 'Talk about an unlikely classic.' 'Twenty-five years after Pink Flamingos was first unleashed, the film has lost none of its danger, its wit, its psychotic exuberance,' wrote Entertainment Weekly's Owen Gleiberman. Variety said: 'One of the most vile, stupid and repulsive films ever made.' Old School Reviews writer John A. Nesbit's added: 'Waters demonstrates visual talent and entertains.' And you probably recognise the director behind the film as it was directed, written and produced by John Waters, 79. The filmmaker has created a number of popular films over the years. Some include Hairspray, Cry-Baby, A Dirty Shame, Female Trouble, Desperate Living, Pecker and Polyester. Other more recent movies include Seed of Chucky, Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip, Magnus and Tab Hunter Confidential. Speaking about how uproar the movie caused in the 70s, John told Vogue in 2022: 'It feels great to see that my stuff is still resonating all these years later. 'I'm still finding ways to corrupt a whole new generation!' Despite the negativity, the director confessed that he knew it would be a 'hit'. He added to the publication: 'I knew it would be a hit after I saw it at the premiere. 'Everyone reacted and laughed at all the right moments, and I always knew it could be a hit if the right people saw it. 'But it was quite a struggle between the premiere and Pink Flamingos finally opening in New York City two years later.'

Solitude Without Loneliness review – bad dates, frenzied flyering and the spirit of the fringe
The dry title belies a show with spark. Solitude Without Loneliness can feel like several fringe shows in one as Malcolm Sutherland's dance-theatre production takes an early detour into sketch comedy and then continues to change gears. As a choreographer, Sutherland is interested in the perks and perils of isolation and he forms a trio with Jorja Follina and Alex Henderson, who are all initially alone together. Against the stark towers cast by Simon Gane's lighting design, the three writhe in a state of undress, faces covered by their clothing. It's a straightforward yet surprisingly effective way to establish a piece about depersonalisation, matched by muffled voices on Hörður Már Bjarnason's rumbling soundscape and muted costumes by Alison Brown. As the dancers leave their silos to come together, their soul-searching gazes matched to choral music, you brace yourself for an overearnest hour. But then the Blind Date theme tune breaks out, rose petals are scattered and the trio alternate the roles of a frisky French waiter and two diners who can't bear to look at each other as they squirm around their seats. The knockabout wordplay aims to be as nimble as the movement, but the touches of clowning – including red lipstick served and smeared in lieu of wine – are more winning. The alternately serio-comic nature of these two episodes – which are both overextended – is akin to channel-hopping, and the contrast diminishes the impact of each. But the remainder of the show reaps haunting results from unlikely sources. The first is a series of speeches akin to Metro's Rush Hour Crush column, each a message in a bottle to a stranger after a brief encounter. These missed chances for connection have a sting here, as does a meta-theatrical flyering sequence that finds the desperate cast surrounded by adverts for their own show. It's a spin on the scenes along the Grassmarket outside, with Sutherland cannily pinning all his themes – romance, disorientation, loneliness, togetherness – to the fringe itself. An intriguing hour.

Worrying scenes as footy star suffers sickening injury in the opening minute of AFL clash
Collingwood star Jeremy Howe suffered a sickening head injury during the opening minute of his side's clash against Hawthorn at the MCG on Thursday. As Hawks star Mitch Lewis cleared his side's lines, Howe, leapt up in the air to take the mark but collided with Jai Newcombe as the pair competed for the footy. The pair appeared to bump heads in the clash, with Howe's head also appearing to hit the ground as he fell to the floor. The Collingwood defender lay motionless on the ground as play continued, but medics on the touchline immediately sprinted onto the field. Newcombe got back to his feet but Howe lay motionless, with team doctors arriving to treat the footy star. 'Just a big head clash and he was out straight away, the umpires did the right thing and stopped play immediately. All care needs to go to that man,' Kane Cornes said on Channel 7's coverage of the match. He was later taken from the field on a stretcher and was moving his arms in a positive sign.
