A manufactured showmance between Reilly Smedley and Matt Klotz happened during Big Brother 25.
Matt developed feelings for Reilly, but when he shared those feelings with her, she placed him in the friend zone.
Later that season, Matt became the Head of Household and received a letter from Reilly. She hinted at sharing feelings for him after he had pined over her for most of the summer.
The duo linked up after the Big Brother season but went their separate ways after hanging out for a while. They seemed destined to remain friends.
Reilly was also on hand when Matt filmed for a CBS soap opera. He appeared on an episode of The Bold and the Beautiful with Cirie Fields.
Recently, Matt addressed rumors he has a new girlfriend.
A live session between Reilly and her fans
While participating in live chat with her social media followers, Reilly appeared to throw some shade in Matt’s direction.
Is it a hint that Reilly was displeased that her efforts to begin a relationship with Matt didn’t pan out?
“Reilly you dodged a bullet with Matt fr,” wrote a Reilly fan during her live chat.
“Yeah, I know,” Reilly said as she smiled and laughed while reading the comment.
Below is a quick clip from that social media chat.
