Brooke told the Herald Sun she was actually at the games supporting her cousin, Geelong midfielder Quinton Narkle. 

The youth worker told the newspaper she was just ‘really good friends’ with Jed.

Rumours of a romance emerged on Saturday, with the Melbourne press reporting Brooke and Jed had been spotted out and about together.

In March, rumours swirled Brooke was dating 26-year-old singer Georgia Flipo, better known by her stage name G Flip.

The two women had attended Sydney’s Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras with each other and even celebrated Valentine’s Day together.

Meanwhile, Brooke’s interactions with Jed seem to be mostly friendly and not of a romantic nature.

For example, the Bachelor in Paradise alum recently wished the footy player ‘good luck’ ahead of a game and made a joke about his dog.

She addressed her sexuality on The Bachelor in 2018, telling leading man Nick Cummins, ‘I’ve had four relationships… one with a guy… 

‘But I’ve also had two relationships with women.

‘When I was in those relationships, I looked beyond what they were as female and I really loved [them] for who they were as people.’
