The pair celebrated their one-year anniversary early in April, having started dating as the pair trained ahead of the 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games.

They also appear to have already moved into the property, with 28-year-old McKeon snapping a picture by the new eight-by-four metre concrete pool during the Easter break.

And of course it contains an 8mx4m concrete pool.

According to listing agent Amir Prestige, the 506sqm block sold for $1,826,000 and boasts “no-expense-spared finishes” and “epitomises laidback, modern luxury”.

“The heart of this home, a seamless flow connects this sun-soaked social hub to the outdoors, with the covered alfresco area ready for entertaining guests or watching kids enjoy the backyard and sparkling pool,” reads the listing, sold through realtor Nat King.

McKeon is currently competing at the Australian Swimming Championships on the Gold Coast.

The five-bed, three-bath and two-storey Labrador home was sold for $1,826,000.

It features an open-plan kitchen space with ‘contemporary coastal interiors’ according to the listing.

On Monday night she was upstaged by Mollie O’Callaghan, who just scraped home against Shayna Jack in the 100m freestyle final, with McKeon finishing third.

Simpson is also competing at the Championships, finishing 10th in the Men’s 50m Fly on the first night of the competition.

The 26-year-old shot to fame in 2010 thanks to his music career and has since released four studio albums, but pivoted to swimming in 2019.
