Matthew appeared to be on a date with a mystery woman in new pictures first obtained by TMZ.

According to the news outlet, the photos were taken on Friday, October 27 around 2:30pm at Hotel Bel-Air in Los Angeles, California.

The former TV star wore a long-sleeved shirt while his companion stunned in a blue T-shirt and white pants as they enjoyed their meals.

Witnesses told TMZ that the pair were seated at the table for more than one hour, but he barely touched his meal or beverage.

However, it seemed that he was in good spirits as he engaged in a conversation with the mystery brunette.

HIS TRAGIC DEATH

Matthew reportedly suffered a cardiac arrest and was unresponsive when found by his assistant in his hot tub at 4 pm on Saturday, October 28.

His staffer made a frantic 911 call and referred to a drowning in the 15-second dispatch audio clip.

Cops confirmed the death was being investigated but no foul play is suspected.

No narcotics were discovered at the scene, but authorities found anti-depressants, anti-anxiety drugs, and a drug for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

On the morning of his death, Matthew had played racquet sport pickleball with a female friend, who revealed the star had felt unwell and “fatigued” over the past week.

WARNING SIGNS

Matthew’s pickleball player revealed to Extra host Billy Bush, 52, that she may have spotted some scary warning signs during their last match together.

He shared what he found out on Instagram.

“I spoke to the woman he played with this morning and every morning,” Billy began his lengthy post.

“She is in shock, adored Matt … she said he had been fatigued today and over the past week. 

“A little more than usual. He played for one hour, then went home.”

Billy mentioned the actor played the sport “every day and sometimes twice. It regulated his days.”
