MATT JAMES AND RACHAEL KIRKCONNELL: A CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY

The plot thickens in the ongoing saga of Matt James and Rachael Kirkconnell! 

It all started with a Deuxmoi sighting of what appeared to be James and Kirkconnell together in Kip's Bay on Sunday morning. However, Kirkconnell herself quickly debunked the rumor, stating it wasn't her with James.

But hold on! It seems Kirkconnell was actually in Atlanta over the weekend. A source spotted her at Painted Park on Saturday, where she even showed her friends a call from James on her phone.

So, if Kirkconnell was in Atlanta, who was that woman with James in Kip's Bay? Could it be a doppelganger? 

Adding another layer to the mystery, another Deuxmoi reader reported seeing James on a flight from Miami to NYC on Sunday morning. This suggests that he could have indeed been in Kip's Bay with someone who simply resembled Kirkconnell.

As for what caused the sudden spilt? Kirkconnell insists it was not related to infidelity but could it have to do with a non committal James as suggested in a 2024 blind item?
