Bachelorette star Lee Elliott seen moving out of marital home he shared with ex Georgia Love - as he's seen gathering belongings after split

Daily Mail​2 days ago
Lee Elliott was all business on Saturday as he moved out of the Melbourne home he once shared with ex Georgia Love.
The couple, who fell in love on the 2016 season of The Bachelorette, announced their split in May following months of speculation.
But things were made official over the weekend as Lee, 43, arrived at their marital home in his work ute while wearing moving clothes.
Rugging up against a chilly Melbourne morning, Lee wore a navy-blue hooded jacket over a similarly coloured T-shirt.
He also wore a pair of mauve shorts and sensible white sneakers with matching socks.

While Georgia, 35, was nowhere to be seen, Lee wasn't taking on the task solo, with a large moving van seen in the driveway.
Lee was spotted carrying armfuls of collared shirts and jackets, still on their hangers, to his car.
While Lee appeared in a relatively chipper mood as he gathered his belongings, it seems he became emotional at one point.
He was seen accepting a consoling embrace from a pal who had shown up to help the former reality star move.
It's certainly the end of an era, with the former couple's four-bedroom home in Hampton East going under the hammer in June.
Their property passed in at $1.53 million after being listed with $1.5 million to $1.58 million price expectations.
However, post-auction negotiations ended with the sale of the home for an undisclosed amount.
Lee and Georgia, who first met on the 2016 season of The Bachelorette, announced their separation with identical posts to Instagram in May.

'After nine wonderful years together, including four as husband and wife, [we] have made the incredibly difficult decision to lovingly part ways,' they wrote.
'Our relationship has been so special, and we will always cherish the memories, love, and laughter we've shared.
'There is no drama, no bad blood. Just two people who have grown in different directions while still holding deep respect and care for each other.
'We remain friends, and we'd really appreciate our privacy as we navigate this next stage. Thank you.'

Dick Diver review – beloved ‘dolewave' band's one-off reunion brings out Melbourne for four magical shows

Dick Diver embodies a time that is both long gone and ever-present. They may have never been a household name but the Melbourne quartet, or what they represent, are a part of the national cultural fabric. Their lackadaisical affect belies the seriousness of both their musicality and lyrics, which are unpretentiously and undeniably Australian. The band combine the slacker vibes of Pavement with the bookish lyricism (they take their name from a character in an F Scott Fitzgerald novel) and jangly 'striped sunlight sound' of the Go-Betweens. Releasing three albums and an EP between 2009 and 2015 through the celebrated Melbourne indie label Chapter Music, Dick Diver's encapsulation of millennial malaise under capitalism made them the unwitting leaders of a genre jokingly nicknamed 'dolewave'. The band, and much of the underground music press, bristled but the moniker nonetheless expressed something true: this was the music of the everyman, suburban poetics for the struggles and quiet joys of daily living. Sign up for the fun stuff with our rundown of must-reads, pop culture and tips for the weekend, every Saturday morning For me, Dick Diver was the sound of moving to Melbourne and starting my independent adult life. Living in sharehouses in Richmond and Carlton North, my housemates and I would cycle down to the Tote after working our entry-level jobs to see Rupert Edwards, Alistair McKay, Al Montfort and Steph Hughes play these songs that were somehow about us. Dick Diver soundtracked the changing tides of my life, spinning on a record player or blasting from a stage as I learned how to work, how to love, how to live. It's been a while between drinks: Dick Diver's last shows were in 2018 and, despite the memorable lyric 'Europe's fucked, probably', half the band now lives there. In the intervening years they have busied themselves with other musical projects, including Sleeper and Snake, Terry and UV Race, and undergone new personal adventures, such as raising children. This surprise reunion was initially a one-off but demand ballooned it into a four-show affair, including two all-ages matinees. Despite it being 10 years since their last album, the cheekily named Melbourne, Florida, this is not the typical album-in-full nostalgia show. The sentimentality is there, of course – 'It's been such a treat to learn these old songs. It's been a while since we've been together,' McKay tells the sold-out crowd on Friday night – but you'd be forgiven for forgetting any time had passed at all. It does take a little time to warm back up: the band feels a little subdued at their first show on Friday night, with their signature banter missing, and loud crowd chatter throughout the sprawling Amber – one of their best – dulling the meditative impact of the song's languorous pace and surrealist imagery ('When I was young, I saw a horse in a stream / One day it looked at me and said, 'Get a grip, dreamy, it's the 21st century!'') But the music sounds great and the band remains as tight as ever, with guest musicians on saxophone and trumpet elevating songs such as Lime Green Shirt and Private Number. Band members swap instruments and vocal duties, and it's not hard to see how this ramshackle crew got together and made this magic. By Saturday, with two shows under the belt, the energy is immediately higher. The show kicks off with Alice, a highlight from the 2013 album Calendar Days that sounds like REM's Losing My Religion if it were set in the Northern Territory on a scorching summer's day. The setlist is similar but for the addition of the 'ancient' Flying Teatowel Blues, a strange, epic beast of a song that takes its cues from spaghetti westerns and shows the band's versatility. Sign up to Saved for Later Catch up on the fun stuff with Guardian Australia's culture and lifestyle rundown of pop culture, trends and tips after newsletter promotion The easy repartee reminds us of where we are and who they are. 'Who can recite their CRN number?' Montfort says before the band plays New Start Again, the title track from their 2011 debut album. During the anthemic Head Back, the crowd roars 'burn the flag' in unison – a lyric that clearly captures a mood in 2025. These songs are evergreen. Dick Diver's value today is in more than just remembering the past: here is a band who manage to both embody the larrikinism of Australian culture and provide a howl of truth about what it means to live here, what it means to live at all. A Dick Diver show, rare and special as it is now, is a look both back and forward: things change, things stay the same.

Viewers lash out at 'boring' Logies ceremony amid rumours the awards night is 'on its last legs'

The Logie Awards got off to a glamorous start on Sunday night. But not everyone watching the telecast was impressed, with many viewers lashing out at the 'boring' awards show. Several people took to X to slam the annual ceremony and claim the Logies simply isn't relevant any more. 'No better confirmation that free to air TV is dying than the #Logies - a mixture of yesterday's celebrities and nobodies talking about themselves,' one person wrote. 'It's quaint how they still have the Logies - a dying medium celebrating mediocrity #Logies,' another said. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. A third commented: 'Dear Aussie media, no one gives a flying f*** about the Logies, regards, the Australian public.' 'Are the Logies even relevant anymore?' another questioned while one said: 'Geez the Logies have become so irrelevant.' 'In fairness the Logies are an embarrassment and have been for at least 30 years... Did you see the nominees for awards this year? Not a shred of talent to be seen,' one wrote. Another added: 'Sometimes I get mad about how much I pay for streaming services but then remember I don't have to endure torturous broadcasts like tonight's #Logies.' It comes after Daily Mail revealed the Logie Awards might not be back next year - or ever. A very high-level TV insider has revealed 'they're quietly rolling up the red carpet'. 'It's just not viable anymore. No one wants to pay for it, no one's watching, and the people behind it are already looking for an exit,' said the source. That 'exit' is apparently the upcoming fire sale of mags at Are Media - which owns TV Week and the Logies brand. The private equity firm backing Are Media, Mercury Capital, wants out after five years of underwhelming returns. The Logies red carpet used to host the likes of Katy Perry, Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars, One Direction, Ricky Martin and even Destiny's Child. 'You remember when the Logies had international stars, outrageous moments, drama?' said the insider. 'Now it's a glorified promo reel for local TV. It's like the Bogan Oscars. The big acts are gone - and so is the audience. 'It's Karl Stefanovic, Sonia Kruger, Hamish Blake - rinse and repeat. Boring! The audience is tired, the talent's recycled, and the networks aren't throwing cash at Logies campaigns like they used to.' The ratings have also plummeted as Seven - which reclaimed the Logies broadcast in 2023 after 28 years with Nine - has seen a 20 per cent drop in digital audience. 'Seven thought they were buying back a national treasure. What they got was a very expensive nostalgia trip,' the insider added.

Oasis ‘shocked and saddened' after fan falls to his death at Wembley show

Oasis said they were 'shocked and saddened' after a fan fell to his death during their sell-out Wembley show this weekend. The man was pronounced dead at the scene after attending the concert on Saturday night. Witnesses described the 'horrendous' scenes after the man reportedly fell from a balcony during the band's long-anticipated reunion tour. Oasis said in a statement: 'We are shocked and saddened to hear of the tragic death of a fan at the show last night. 'Oasis would like to extend our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the person involved.' The Metropolitan Police have said that the man was aged in his 40s. Despite the tragic events on Saturday, organisers said the band's performance on Sunday would still go ahead. In a statement the Metropolitan Police said: 'A man – aged in his 40s – was found with injuries consistent with a fall. 'He was sadly pronounced dead at the scene. 'The stadium was busy and we believe it is likely a number of people witnessed the incident, or may knowingly or unknowingly have caught it on mobile phone video footage. 'If you have any information that could help us to confirm what happened, please call 101.' A witness told the Daily Mail: 'It was horrendous. 'The guy fell from a balcony. Paramedics came rushing over. There was a lot of screaming and shouting. 'It was a big fall. God knows how it happened. It was so tragic. I don't know how on Earth it happened. 'It was heartbreaking. He was only young.' The fall happened during the latest in a run of stadium shows for the band's sell-out Live '25 reunion tour – their first since splitting in 2009. A spokesperson for Wembley Stadium said: 'Last night, Wembley Stadium medics, the London Ambulance Service and the police attended to a concert-goer who was found with injuries consistent with a fall. 'Despite their efforts, the fan very sadly died. Our thoughts go out to his family, who have been informed and are being supported by specially trained police officers. 'The police have asked anyone who witnessed the incident to contact them. 'Tonight's Oasis concert will go ahead as planned.'
