Damien also shared several photos on his own Instagram, including one taken on the same day as one that Joe posted.
Some of the photos showed the men being playful with one another, and even quite affectionate while on the show.
Damien captioned the set of photographs: ‘I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. There are good ships, there are woods ships, ships that sail the sea, but the best ships are friendships, and may they always be!’
Joe captioned one set of photos: ‘When the NSW & VIC border opens up in 12 days…. Well and truuuuuley due’ indicating they’d soon be together again
Hunky property developer Damien left the show in October when he didn’t tickle either Elly or Becky Miles’ fancy.
Meawnile, Elly Miles defied producers when she dumped runner-up Joe ahead of the official final rose ceremony.
Joe later admitted he was grateful that he was spared a ‘brutal’ dumping at the grand finale.
