Collingwood defender Isaac Quaynor has finally come clean on his new romance after keeping it under wraps since the offseason.
The 26-year-old has just soft-launched his relationship with nurse Orki Rahimi on social media, ending his status as one of the game’s most eligible bachelors.
The pair have been together for the past few months but only made it public during their trip to Queenstown over the Magpies’ bye weekend.
Quaynor met his girlfriend in a suburb on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula after the Pies’ season finished last year.
Orki has since been spotted alongside the footy star while he was hosting an event for Gem Personal Care and Wellness.
The couple are quite low-key, and despite not wanting to be photographed together, Orki has made public appearances at footy matches supporting her partner.

Quaynor is one of footy’s most fashionable players and has frequently been spotted promoting cologne brands.
The 26-year-old has been outspoken about his interest in Ralph Lauren scents, among others.
He has also launched his own fragrance, Nsuro, following the trend of celebrity athletes building brands overseas.
‘It’s all about incorporating my culture, the Ghanaian culture, into this fragrance and kind of making it bigger than just Isaac Quaynor the athlete,’ he said last year.
Quaynor has copped criticism from some figures in the game for his less-than-traditional interests.
Despite this, he remains defiant and says negative commentary does not affect him.
‘Honestly it doesn’t bother me one bit because I know what I’m doing. I’m not doing anything wrong, I just like to smell good.’
‘I don’t think it’s that deep, but people are always going to have opinions, so that’s fine,’ he said.
