For those of you who have been keeping up with Married At First Sight Australia this season, you'll know there's been ups, downs, and plenty of drama.
And while not everyone made it down the aisle in the original couplings, it doesn't mean that sparks haven't been flying elsewhere. Yep, we're talking about Billy Belcher and Carina Mirabile, who have recently given fans major reason to believe they could be an item.
But let's backtrack a bit: During the social experiment, Billy was paired with Sierah. Their relationship didn't end up working out, causing them to leave the social experiment during a commitment ceremony. As for Carina and Paul, they made it to the altar. But again, it wasn't to be. (Paul punched a wall in the couple's apartment and dated another girl, which led to Carina dumping him right before their 'I do's.')
Now, Billy has taken to TikTok to share a video of himself and Carina basically soft-launching some kind of relationship. The footage shows the MAFSAU alumni posing for a photo before turning to look at each other and tightly hugging. During the embrace, Billy and Carina are seen laughing, smiling, and looking genuinely happy and comfortable in one another's company.
But perhaps the biggest teaser of all? Billy captioned the video: "Should we [have] been matched? I mean I wouldn't [have] punched a hole in the wall or gone on a date with another girl." That's some shade right there.
Of course, the video sent MAFS fans wild, with many giving their seal of approval to the potential coupling.
"Carina is solid enough to bring out your nurturing side IMO," one person said, while another typed: "The way she looked at you."
"I am here for this!" a third added, as a fourth echoed: "You look great together."
Cute TikTok video aside, eagle-eyed sleuths will remember that Billy had previously given hints that he was into Carina. In an interview with Yahoo, Carina claimed that Billy asked her to pretend to be his girlfriend at the reunion. At the time, she turned him down, stating they were just friends and that she didn't want to "stir any pot."
Other clues that the two may be transitioning from friends to more than friends? Five days ago, Carina posted a series of glam selfies to her grid on the way to Australian Fashion Week. While she received plenty of attention from fans thanks to her oversized fur coat and Kim K-esque slicked back hairstyle, Billy was one of the first to comment on the carousel with "Queen energy."
And, as if by magic, he also commented "Kim K" on a series of snaps from May 15, referencing Carina's obvious likeness to the reality star.
Finally, Billy shared three snaps of himself with his mum to celebrate Mother's Day earlier this month. While Carina replied: "Love this," Billy responded to her message with: "thanks queen."
We don't know about you, but there's definitely plenty of flirtatious energy going on here.
