Former Bachelor star Matt James and girlfriend Rachael Kirkconnell are shutting down recent breakup rumors. The pair—who met on the ABC series back in 2021—took to TikTok earlier this week to show fans they're still sweet on each other.
After being noticeably absent from each other's social profiles for the last few weeks, the former TV couple is back to doing what they do best: being adorably in love and...eating. On Tuesday, James shared a video of his longtime girlfriend to TikTok, writing, "when each found out double tree gives out FREE cookies 🍪💀."
Kirkconnell proudly strolls out of the hotel, proclaiming, "they had some!" before sharing her live (and first-ever!) reaction to the famous cookies DoubleTree gives out to guests.

"Why the heck do they have these sitting in a front desk? He pulled them out of a drawer," Kirkconnell says after tasting the cookie. "Oh my gosh, and they’re good. Why have we never stayed at a DoubleTree? Look at that!"
That's the thing, though: It seems as if they weren't even staying at the hotel. For starters, Matt is waiting in the car while Rachael went in the lobby to inquire about them, before asking James himself why they've "never stayed at a DoubleTree." Don't get me wrong. We respect the hustle.
Clearly, they're not the only ones either. "😂 throwback when we walked to grab some one summer omg," one user wrote on TikTok.
Another chimed in, writing, "Wait, do you have to be staying there? Or you can just ‘stop by’ and grab some? @hilton."
Meanwhile, others were a bit salty about the couple's drive-by cookie grab. "Y'all better not ruin it if people start going to get them without staying there 😭😭😭," a TikToker wrote. Another said, "For the guests..."
Despite the opposition in the comment section, everyone seemed to agree on one thing: the cookies are that good. "THEY ARE SOOOOO GOOD," a fan wrote, with another adding, "And they’re the BEST cookies."
Now if a Hilton insider could just slide into my DM's and let me know whether *just anyone* can raid the cookie drawer (like we could a few years ago), that would be great. Until they do, I'll just have to make them at home.
