Art is 26 soon to be 27 in a few weeks. Matilda is 24 but she looks younger IMO.

Art looks older than his age and lucky Matilda looks younger. No need for the botox . So 2 years apart in age: 26 and 24.

Poppy is also 24. Dani is 22. They're all young. Thus the watching demographic (ages 10-25) and timeslot of 7:30.

awww watched epi 13...i'm so sorry to say but right now it looks forced between them...

Emusha SM was going nuts about their kiss goodbye even comparing it to the notebook. I still like them together seems very normal to me & not like the bubble kind of relationship on the US series IMO.

Most normal relationship progression I have seen on any of these shows. Friends to falling in love. If they are still together post-show like I believe they are I think this is why Art is now saying he can see himself marrying his F1. When FRC came, he got his "wish" that it was that simple to having just one girl only as he told Matilda's dad when he said "shall we shake on it?" to having Matilda as F1.

Art is now following Matilda on Twitter interesting.

hmm, interesting move by Art.

I wonder why only now

Based on what we have sleuthed and what Art has done lately, if he is genuinely wanting to be with his F1 (Matilda for us) then I think he is probably tired of trying to keep it all under wraps. I would think they both are now.

ElonM my theory is that he wouldn't follow on Twitter if she is F1 so as not to inadvertently tweet something personal to her & let the cat out of the bag...with one more week left maybe it's just a countdown now & he doesn't care  anymore. Similar to how he has talked about his girl liking food now in 2 interviews when we all know Matilda is a food lover, so me thinks he can't wait for this to be over. Obviously my theory could all go south if Matilda is not F1

mercieme you and AAL raised good points.

One more week for the big reveal.

As I previously noted I'm a sucker for the f2 spot it wouldn't be the first time

Go big or go home: Tilds and Art to the end.

Mercieme we are seeing things exactly the same I think Art is over it all. Done. This is the part where things get crazy on this show (the FDs) and so that is when he has to be MOST protective of Matilda if she is indeed F1 and I have no doubt that she is because of what Art has done on this show and said to her (whole experience over for me if you leave and then to her dad "shall we shake on it?" and "I wish it was that easy" concerning just having one girl right now and it being Matilda... )

I also think it is key that Art is using Twitter now and only since his date with Matilda last week. He hasn't been active on it other than that subtweet to Dani but once his date with Matilda and his first kiss with her he favorites 2 posts about his date with Matilda. And he follows pro-Matilda protea_rose which I would not think he would do at all if he wasn't with Matilda as his twitter feed would be mostly about Matilda. That is why it is interesting to me that he does NOT follow TBNZ Twitter account since they tweet about all the girls.

Matilda seems to be using her Twitter a lot more than she does her IG (the other girls use their IG much more... Dani uses ALL her SM the same). So from that logic, it makes sense why Art is now on Twitter more and following her. With the magazine covers, the interviews Art has done, it all coincides with Matilda and him. That's the center of it all.

Was she the only one of the final 6 that he wasn't following?
