EXCLUSIVE Brittany Hockley's wedding guest list raises eyebrows as it's revealed who's in and who's out of her friendship group
The power couple will reportedly tie the knot at the luxurious Pandawa Cliff Estate in June, where an oceanfront six-bedroom villa rents for $6590AUD per night.
According to the estate's website, wedding bookings allow for between 50 and 250 guests.
Back in Sydney, the 36-year-old's wedding guest list has already raised some eyebrows.
While the couple's engagement has been the talk of the town, it's the notable absences from the wedding invitations that have caught attention.
Sources close to the couple reveal that several of Brittany's fellow I'm A Celebrity 2024 'campmates' – including Skye Wheatley, Callum Hole, and Denise Drysdale – did not make the cut.
From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, s ubscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop.
Despite the show's portrayal of a tight-knit group, insiders suggest that behind the scenes, not all relationships were as harmonious.
Rumours have long circulated about tensions between Brittany and some of her jungle co-stars, with whispers of and off-camera disagreements between informal cliques.
'The show presents a united front, but the reality is, not everyone clicked,' a source close to production told Daily Mail Australia.
'Brittany has chosen to keep her wedding intimate, inviting those she's closest to.'
Adding to the intrigue, Brittany recently shared a lighthearted anecdote about her wedding invitations causing confusion among guests due to Aussie slang.
On her Life Uncut podcast, she recounted how the phrase 'no thongs' led to some hilarious misunderstandings among international invitees.
Brittany travelled to Bali in September to plan her destination wedding and wedding planners clamoured into the former Bachelor star's comments section after the bride-to-be joked about how she hadn't planned much for the big day.
'No date, no venue, no dress, no food, no alcohol, no photographer,' Brittany wrote - prompting wedding planners, wedding dress boutiques, and all sorts of other companies to offer up their services to the beautiful brunette.
As the big day approaches, all eyes will be on the guest list and the potential for any surprise appearances or notable absences
As the big day approaches, all eyes will be on the guest list and the potential for any surprise appearances or notable absences.
Brittany announced her engagement to Ben, 32, earlier this year.
Brittany, who formerly described herself as 'the perpetually single host', had been dating Ben long-distance for eight months when he popped the question.
In her post, Brittany expressed her love for her new fiancé, writing: 'In any lifetime it's a YES! Just two people loving each other for the rest of our lives.'
Brittany went Instagram official with Swiss goalkeeper Benjamin in January last year.
The duo met in November 2022 on the celebrity dating app Raya.
At the time the goalkeeper's soccer team, the Glasgow-based Celtic FC, was playing in Australia against Sydney FC.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia at the ACRA awards in October, the radio presenter said she has set a date and is currently in the process of planning their big day.
'I'm getting married next year. I'm not telling too many secrets yet. Mitch [Churi] is of course going to be there,' Brittany began as she led the red carpet arrivals with her former KIIS FM Pickup co-host.
'Mitch actually has a starring role in the wedding.'

Coronation Street star tipped for I'm a Celebrity after quitting soap 5 years on from debut
A CORONATION Street star has been tipped to head Down Under later this year after exiting the embattled soap. Rumours have started to swirl about which famous faces could be preparing themselves to head into the ITV jungle. 3 3 Now, it seems that this year's soap star has been sealed according to the bookies. Actor Adam Hussain has found himself being lined-up for the show after it was revealed he had quit his soap role of Aadi Alahan. With his soap exit due to play out very soon, it has left many convinced that his next move will be heading into I'm A Celebrity. According to Betway, they are expecting to see Adam face the Bushtucker Trials this year. The company's spokesperson Mike Reading said: 'Adam Hussain looks set for a brand new adventure beyond Coronation Street. 'With the I'm A Celeb lineup still firmly under wraps, we have priced him up at 7/1 to swap the Rovers Return for bugs, rice, and beans.' Adam's exit from the soap follows a dramatic month for Aadi which saw him throw a house party mid-week in the middle of the day that ended with drastic consequences. A drugs scandal spilled out onto the Street, which resulted in Lauren Bolton facing hospitalisation. Confirming his soap exit earlier this year, Adam said: "Over the five years I've spent there, I have learned so much about the world and the industry and now feel I am ready to spread my wings a little." Sources say that while it was big decision to make, Adam is feeling confident and excited for the future. Coronation Street proposal goes badly wrong as Carla Connor forced to call it off Insiders told The Sun: "He's telling people he's quit, not because he's had enough of the show but his character hasn't had any decent storylines for ages. "He's had loads of new opportunities coming his way so he already feels like he's made the right decision." 3

David and Victoria Beckham face fresh heartache as new details emerge of Brooklyn's vow renewal speech to wife Nicola Peltz
David and Victoria Beckham look set to face fresh heartache as new details have emerged of son Brooklyn's vow renewal speech to wife Nicola Peltz. Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, said 'I do' for a second time on August 2 in Westchester County in front of her family, with the Beckham clan notably absent amid their ongoing feud. His parents David, 50, and Victoria, 51, and his brothers Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and sister Harper, 14, were nowhere in sight at the second wedding, while in contrast, Nicola's family had key roles at the lavish event. And in an additional blow for the Beckham family, Brooklyn reportedly opened up on his love for the Peltz family, as well as speaking 'movingly' of his wife, as he gave his speech in front of the 200 guests. A source told The Mirror: 'He spoke from the heart - and at the centre of his heart is Nicola who he loves very dearly, but also the Peltz family who have really stuck by his side. He wanted to recognise them all, and was determined to do them all justice.' News of the 'heartfelt tribute' to billionaire Nelson Peltz, 83, and wife Claudia, 70, will no doubt add to the pain of the Beckham family amid their estrangement from Brooklyn, with it said that no such tribute was given for his own parents. Daily Mail has contacted representatives of Brooklyn, David and Victoria for comment. In addition to his immediate family, Brooklyn's grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles were also absent and only found out about the wedding vow renewal by reading it online. It comes as Brooklyn is reportedly 'heartbroken' over the way his wife Nicola is being 'painted as a viper' within their ongoing family feud. Billionaire heiress Nicola has previously been accused of 'isolating' Brooklyn from not only his family, but his friends too. New sources allege Brooklyn is not being held from making his own decisions and is 'devastated' over the way his wife is being portrayed. A source told The Mirror: 'It's so rooted in misogyny that all of the heat for his parents not being invited is on Nicola. 'Everyone seems to forget that Brooklyn is an adult man and fully capable of speaking out. Nicola would have respected all that he chose. 'It breaks Brooklyn's heart to see his wife being painted as this vixen and viper.' in an additional blow for the Beckham family, Brooklyn reportedly opened up on his love for the Peltz family, as well as speaking 'movingly' of his wife, as he gave his speech in front of the 200 guests News of the 'heartfelt tribute' to billionaire Nelson Peltz, 83, and wife Claudia, 70, will no doubt add to the pain of the Beckham family amid their estrangement from Brooklyn, with it said that no such tribute was given for his own parents Daily Mail has contacted Brooklyn, Nicola and the Beckhams representatives for comment. Insiders previously told Daily Mail that Brooklyn's parents are concerned his wife Nicola holds disproportionate sway in her marriage to their son. They said: 'They think Nicola is a bit of a horror but she isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Nicola loves having Brooklyn at her side and she loves him very much. But he is also very useful. 'The wider Beckham family and Brooklyn's friends – many of whom he no longer sees – take the view that he does what Nicola wants. From Beckhams' point of view, it's not nice to watch.' Brooklyn and Nicola's vow renewal was a glamorous affair packed with family, fashion and friends earlier this month. As more pictures of both the big day and the after-party come to light, it is becoming increasingly more apparent that the festivities were fairly one-sided - with most of the guestlist comprising Brooklyn's post-Nicola peers and pals. The lack of Brooklyn's side sparked widespread chat on social media, including comments from fans who likened their relationship to that of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle - after the royal turned his back on his family and moved to the US. When Brooklyn and Nicola first tied the knot in 2022, they hosted a three-day Palm Beach extravaganza, which saw 500 guests party in no-expense-spared marquees in front of the ocean - where both families stood front and centre . Fast- forward three years and the change is remarkable, with no sign of the Beckham parents or the siblings Brooklyn held so close to his heart. In their place is the entirety of the Peltz clan - with Nicola's mother Claudia and her father Nelson holding all-star roles on the day.

Woman, 25, mistaken for her 59-year-old mum's SISTER slams trolls for ‘nasty, awful comments' about her appearance
A WOMAN, 25, mistaken for her 59-year-old mum's sister has hit back at the brutal online trolls. Beauty buff Coco Pons went viral on TikTok earlier this month after she shared an adorable make-up video with her mum, 59, before heading to a wedding. 2 2 In the video, which has since racked up close to 7million views, the wholesome mother and daughter duo could be seen doing their make-up and hair. But while the two stunners looked incredible both with and without the glowy make-up, the clip, unfortunately, landed on the so-called 'wrong side of TikTok'. Hiding behind their profiles, thousands of online trolls flooded to comments, where many said Coco looked ''the same age'' as her mum - who is more than 25 years older. While some wondered if the two were ''sisters'', others dubbed the cute duo ''older twins'', as they begged Coco to start using '' sunscreen ''. Meanwhile, some brutal viewers refused to believe the daughter was 25 - and others shared their unsolicited beauty tips to ''look younger''. After reading the thousands of ''awful and nasty'' comments about her looks, the US-based TikToker posted a follow-up message hitting back at the meanies. Sharing a series of snaps of herself and her mum, Coco said: ''I've never had anything done to my face because I felt like it wasn't necessary. ''I've always had freckles and pale skin because I'm a ginger,'' said Coco who posts under the username @ curatedbycoco___. Coco, who's always sported ''blonde eyebrows '' trolls urged her to dye ''darker'', added that she's also using sun cream - despite what some may think. ''I have, wear a tonne of sunscreen because I live at the beach - and I've never entered a tanning bed in my life.'' I've lost 9 stone & am barely recognisable from my former self - my transformation's so insane people even think it's AI She went on: ''I don't remember asking others for opinions. And I couldn't care less what random people think about us. ''Keep your comments to yourself next time speaking about someone looks,'' Coco urged everyone to be kinder in the caption. The latest video has since taken the internet by storm, amassing more than 8million views and over 535k likes. Why is turmeric good for anti-ageing? A study published in the Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that turmeric and curcumin may help prevent DNA damage and aid in DNA repair. This is promising news for disease prevention and slowing the ageing process. It also: Boosts Collagen Production: Collagen is a protein that maintains the skin's elasticity and firmness. As we age, collagen production decreases, leading to wrinkles and sagging skin. Turmeric helps stimulate collagen synthesis, thereby promoting firmer and more youthful skin. Improves Skin Health: Turmeric has been shown to improve various skin conditions, such as acne, psoriasis, and eczema. Its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties help soothe the skin, reduce redness, and promote a clearer complexion. One fan said: ''PEOPLE ONLINE ARE MISERABLE!!!! You're beautiful!'' Someone else chimed in: ''you're just a happy person with smile lines why is everyone so mean.'' A third commented: ''You are STUNNING. Unsolicited opinion, I think if you filled in your brows darker it would have a youthful effect. But truly you look your age and are gorgeous.'' Meanwhile, another wrote: ''As a fellow ginger we are more prone to sunburn which means drier, wrinkle prone skin.
