The pair appeared to be in San Diego, CA, for a wedding. They were all dressed up, with Keith sporting a white button down shirt and a yellow tie and Ari wearing a matching white outfit.

Ari and Keith, both 31, enjoyed dinner at a restaurant in their white attire and also took a casual mirror selfie in their hotel room.

Keith also uploaded images to Instagram Stories of the San Diego coastline and a sweet picture in which Ari's hand was holding his hand.

Earlier this week, Keith posted a photo of himself lounging and captioned it, "Waiting for bae to bring back the grapes."

Keith's "bae" mention would appear to confirm that Ari is his girlfriend.

Keith married Iris Caldwell on Married at First Sight's ninth season, which was set in North Carolina and aired in 2019.

The season ended with Keith wanting a divorce when Iris was hoping to work out their issues and stay married.

Iris was devastated by Keith's unexpected decision, but she has said time and time again it was an experience that made her stronger and allowed her to grow as a person.

Iris and Keith tied the knot in March 2019 and Keith's choice to divorce Iris on "Decision Day" shocked some Married at First Sight viewers because they seemed to have a good relationship during the show.

The pair rarely fought during their eight-week marriage, and Keith and Iris supported each other during tough times -- including the death of Keith's beloved grandmother.

Keith told the cameras on Married at First Sight he wanted to split from Iris because of her alleged lack of emotional maturity due to her lack of sexual and relationship experience.

Iris, however, seemed to think during filming that Keith simply had an issue with the fact she was a virgin.

The topic of reconciliation for Keith and Iris came up during Married at First Sight's ninth-season reunion special, which aired on Lifetime in September 2019.

Iris noted she'd be willing to give Keith another chance if he'd be up for marriage counseling, but he expressed there was probably no hope of them getting back together.

Keith confessed he really wasn't ready for a wife, and he believed at the time Iris wasn't ready to be a wife either.

In February 2020, Iris admitted she and Keith were not officially divorced yet because in North Carolina, there is a one-year waiting period from when a couple separates and stops living together that they must wait before filing the divorce paperwork.

Iris revealed on Instagram in September 2020 that her divorce from Keith had been finalized. She called the divorce "official" and "final," and she wished Keith the best.

Lifetime recently wrapped Married at First Sight's fourteenth season. Two couples, Noi Phommasak and Steve Moy as well as Katina Goode and Olajuwon Dickerson, stayed together.
