AFL star Bailey Smith has been spotted enjoying the company of other women on the Gold Coast, just weeks after his brief romance with fitness influencer Tammy Hembrow reportedly came to an end.
A Schoolies Week Sighting
The 24-year-old Geelong Cats footballer was seen back in Queensland last week, coinciding with the annual Schoolies week celebrations. In a series of images circulated online, Bailey Smith was photographed posing with another woman. Further pictures showed the athlete casually dressed in a blue shirt, black pants, and slides, sitting on a bench alongside a box.
It remains unclear whether Smith specifically travelled for the Schoolies festivities or was simply on a personal getaway in the Sunshine State at the same time.
Tammy Hembrow's 'New Dating Era'
This development follows a very public move from Tammy Hembrow, who recently announced her entry into a 'new dating era' via a sponsored post for the dating app Tinder. In a clip shared on her Instagram, Hembrow detailed what gives her 'the ick' in a man, making a thinly-veiled reference to her former flame.
'Only because I don't know anything about footy,' she confessed, stating that men who only want to talk about football are a definite turn-off. 'I can't really contribute to that conversation.'
Her new partnership with Tinder comes just three months after Bailey Smith himself was announced as an ambassador for the same dating platform, leading some fans to speculate that their romance was staged for publicity.
Timing and Speculation
The sequence of events has fuelled significant media attention. Hembrow's Tinder promotion and subtle dig at Smith arrived shortly after her divorce from Matt Zukowski was confirmed. The influencer had become engaged to Zukowski after a whirlwind three-month romance in December 2023, marrying him in November 2024. However, the marriage ended after just seven months, with the pair announcing their divorce in June.
As Bailey Smith is seen moving on with new companions in Queensland, the public chapter of his connection with Tammy Hembrow appears to have closed, for now.
