Matt James and Rachael Kirkconnell are having their own, private “Bachelor in Paradise” kind of summer.
The on-again couple have popped up at events together all summer, and were most recently spotted canoodling at the launch of Spritz Society at Jimmy Rooftop Bar in SoHo on Tuesday.
“They were being super cute,” a Page Six spy tells us of the couple — who made their red carpet debut at the ESPYs in July after a very public breakup.
The spy added they were “holding each other” throughout the evening.
Kirkconnell, 24, was also spotted chatting and posing for selfies with “The Morning Toast” podcast hosts Claudia and Jackie Oshry.
James, the first black “Bachelor” and Kirkconnell, the winner of his season, split up after photos of her at a plantation-themed college party resurfaced. Kirkconnell, who was also accused of “liking” racially insensitive social media posts, apologized for her past actions before the pair rekindled their romance earlier this year.
Since their reunion, the Bachelor Nation couple have been spotted hanging in the Hamptons and posting about each other on social media. A source even told Page Six the couple are considering moving in together.
Guests at the launch of the canned cocktail — which was created by Instagram star Ben Soffer, a.k.a. @boywithnojob — also included Kardashian pal Simon Huck, former Bravo star Hannah Berner, TikToker Remi Bader, “My Unorthodox Life” star Batsheva Haart and podcast host Shannon Ford.
“I started sharing my favorite spritz cocktails on Instagram because I loved the way they looked and tasted,” Soffer told Page Six of how he came up with the idea for his Spritz Society drink. “My followers were always asking for recommendations on where to find the best and most perfect spritz, so I knew I wanted to create that for them (and for me).”
The party, designed by by Josh Spiegel of BIRCH Events, showcased Spritz Society’s four flavors — grapefruit, blood orange, pineapple and lemonade — with a floating citrus pool installation, a tower of Spritz cans on the bar and multiple craft cocktails. Guests were also asked to wear color in line with the cans’ designs.
