Before their trip to Spain, Simpson and McKeon hadn’t been seen together since they walked the red carpet at the Elvis premiere on the Gold Coast on June 4.
There were rumors that the couple was quietly breaking up, but friends denied any suggestion that their romance was on the rocks.
Representatives for Simpson and McKeon declined to comment, but a swimming insider, who asked not to be named, said he would be “surprised” when the pair were “done.”

“As far as I know, they’re still there. But you hear people trying to cause trouble in swimming circles all the time,” he said.
“People like to start with rumours. By saying that, people also break up.’
The pair are said to have first dated each other a few months ago as training partners under weapons coach Michael Bohl.
Simpson hopes to fulfill his Olympic dream in Paris in 2024, while McKeon, who made history with seven medals in Tokyo 2021, wants to support her record-breaking achievement.
The pair found themselves in the midst of an alleged ‘love triangle’ during the Australian Championships in Adelaide, with reports claiming Kyle Chalmers deliberately barred Simpson from participating in the World 100m Butterfly Championship by choosing to contest the event.
Chalmers, who dated McKeon for several months in 2021, later disputed this, saying he had always intended to participate in that event.
