True love?
First Dates Ireland's match of the night last night was undoubtedly Rory and Peter. The pair had actually talked before online so they felt like it was destiny that they would be put together on the show.
They got on like a house on fire and there were sparks galore.
Serendipity strikes again.

But did it all work out for Rory and Peter? Sadly not.
In the video below, Rory posts a message from Lanzarote where he has a new man in his life, while Peter is still single but focusing on getting into a paramedic course in Limerick.
