"He's the best and we are extremely happy with one another. Life is good."
While Rankin and Manuel haven't yet shared a photo together on social media, the two did appear in an intimate picture shared on a friend's Instagram story — showing them on a rose petal-covered bed together, with the caption: "Bf&gf, it's official".
Take a closer look at Davina's new beau:
Judging by recent posts on their respective Instagram profiles, the couple appear to have celebrated their new relationship with a glam Gold Coast yacht cruise together over the weekend:
Rankin last month opened up about the pitfalls of appearing on Married At First Sight, admitting that she "barely got out alive".
Viewers were shocked to see her arranging a secret date with Dean Wells behind her "husband" Ryan Gallagher's back during her stint on the show.
Amid the backlash, Davina stayed off social media.
"It's just crazy because people believe so much," she told the ABC.
"They genuinely believe I had an affair on my husband. This was a guy I'd only known for a week, we're not boyfriend and girlfriend, let alone husband and wife. And if it was such a 'secret' why were there cameras in my face the whole time?"
Davina revealed that she was called a "homewrecker" and "every slander word you can imagine" online, as well as receiving death threats and abuse.
"I barely got out of this whole ordeal alive. I can't even imagine what it would be like for younger boys and girls who have to deal with this alone," she admitted to the broadcaster.
"I feel like if I go to the shops, all of those people that have commented on a meme about me are going to be there."
