Georgia Love looks downcast as she returns to her marital home after her ex-husband Lee Elliot goes on a wild weekend away following their split
Georgia Love looked downcast on Friday as she returned to the house she shared with ex-husband Lee Elliot in Melbourne.
The couple, who met on the 2016 season of The Bachelorette and were married for four years, broke the news of their separation in February.
But as Lee, 43, jetted off on a wild weekend golf trip with his male friends, Georgia, 35, has headed back to their marital home alone.
She was spotted filling up her car with petrol not far from the house, garbed in a very bright red blazer which she paired with billowing white slacks.
The former reality TV star slipped on a basic white tank under the coat and opted for comfort with a pair of matching sneakers.
Flaunting her natural beauty with a minimal makeup look, Georgia finished her ensemble by pulling her blonde tresses back into a half-up hair do.
She appeared to be engrossed in her mobile phone as she filled up the tank before driving off.
Meanwhile, ex-husband Lee has been mending his broken heart by seeking solace in his buddies as he headed off for a weekend away with over a dozen male friends.
The tradie excitedly posted a video of the expedition on his Instagram Stories as the group prepared to jet off to King Island, Tasmania in a light aircraft.
The troupe, who are celebrating the 40th birthday of a pal, posed for a group photo in front of the plane at Moorabbin Airport.
The trip come after Georgia spoke publicly about the couple's split.
She broke her silence about the marriage breakdown with Kate Langbroek on Mamamia's No Filter podcast, saying she felt like she had let down her fans.
The emotional reality star admitted it was difficult to announce her split from Lee because of the amount of goodwill from others toward their relationship.
'I don't want to feel like I've let anyone down which is so silly because it's not about anyone else, it's about us,' she said as she broke down into tears.

'People have been so wonderful following our story since the start and so many say they look at our relationship and it gives them hope.
'I've been really sad feeling like I've let people down.'
Georgia went on to say the hardest part about her split is 'entering a period of loss and grief again'.
'It was hard at the end of last year with all the speculation about whether we had split. It was hard while I was trying to come to terms with what was happening,' she said.
'Lee and I made the decision together but it doesn't mean it makes me happy. It doesn't. I'm really sad about it.'
Georgia and Lee, who were married for four years, broke the news of their split in February.
'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.'

Sarah Snook wins best actress at Tony awards for The Picture of Dorian Gray
Sarah Snook has won the Tony award for best actress in a play for her performance in all 26 roles in The Picture of Dorian Gray, the Sydney Theatre Company one-woman show that has become a Broadway hit. 'This means so much for a little Australian girl,' she said, from the podium, thanking her husband for 'holding down the fort and keeping our family together.' The show marks the Australian actor's Broadway debut, after having also performed the show in London's West End, for which she won an Olivier award last year. Snook took over the role from actor Erin-Jean Norvill, who originated the performance to acclaim in Australia between 2020 and 2022. 'It's about concealing and revealing, putting on masks, taking off masks,' Snook told the New York Times. 'It's about having your soul be seen.' On Sunday, New York Times critic Elisabeth Vincentelli wrote, 'When I left The Picture of Dorian Gray all those weeks ago, I said to whoever would listen on Eighth Avenue that they might as well start engraving Sarah Snook's Tony right then and there. I will claim this one for my clairvoyant skills.' The play, directed by former STC artistic director Kip Williams, has been widely praised by critics and was nominated for six Tonys this year. On Sunday night, Melbourne-based costume designer Marg Horwell also won the costume design category for Dorian Gray, but the show lost out in the lighting, sound and scenic design categories. Williams is also nominated for best director. After the success of Dorian Gray on Broadway, Williams is set to stage his one-woman production of Dracula there, with Wicked star Cynthia Erivo playing all 23 roles.

The 'elegant' $17 product from Kmart Australia shoppers are rushing to buy: 'I need this'
Customers are marvelling over an 'adorable' $17 lamp from Kmart Australia to spruce up home corners and hallways. The Olivia Glass Portable Rechargeable Lamp has stunned thousands across the country for its 'elegant' design. One woman from Melbourne bought the lamp to brighten her dark hallway and was pleasantly surprised by how much light the small product provides. 'To be honest I wasn't expecting these lamps to work so well. The front part of the hallway is really dark, and can be really dark during the day in winter as well,' she wrote on Facebook. 'I thought I'd give the lamps a try and wow, I love them.' Kmart also shared a short video boasting about the latest product, which has three brightness levels, a push button switch and is lightweight. 'Light up your space with this Kmart Find. This $17 Olivia glass lamp brings the perfect glow, whether you're reading, chilling, or just avoiding the big light,' the caption read. The lamp provides warm, ambient lighting and can operate for six hours once fully charged. The Olivia Glass Portable Rechargeable Lamp from Kmart Australia has stunned thousands across the country for its elegant design Other shoppers who have bought the lamp praised it on Facebook while others felt encouraged to buy it. 'Love my mine also. I have one on in my foyer and two on my piano. It's great have three brightness options,' one wrote. 'Well now I want these,' another admitted. 'So pretty and calming,' a third added. Earlier this year Kmart released another rechargeable lamp which sent Aussies into a spin thanks to the 'luxurious' glow it gives their homes. Jess Fussell, from Perth, recently purchased the trendy buy to liven up her common room. 'The $17 lamp from Kmart that every girly home needs,' she said. Jess also bought her coffee table books and various other pieces of home decor from the bargain retailer. 'Kmart is really elite at serving affordable decor finds.' Sydney-based interior designer Emma Bloomfield previously told FEMAIL that layered lighting adds a touch of softness to create a dynamic room. She recommended choosing a combination of lamps, pendant lights, and sconces instead of harsh overhead tube lights. Swapping out hard white lights for warm bulbs and moving over to dimmable switches that you can tailor to your mood will help you have more control over the functionality and feel of the room. Kmart's portable touch lamp is perfect to add dimension to any room - and the low price means you can buy multiple to place around the house for a coherent look. The lamp is only available in a gold tone at the moment but shoppers are itching for Kmart to release other colours. 'I love it! I really want a chrome silver one of these,' one said online about the touch lamp. 'Stunning - I need it in my kitchen,' another said. Another option is the Elly table lamp which looks like it came straight out of a time capsule from the 1970s with its pleated lamp shade and sage green stand. The Scandinavian inspired lamp, which is just $15, has been described as being perfect for living spaces and bedrooms. An online vintage decor store is selling a similar lamp, they claim to be from the late 70s early 80s, for $1027. The table lamp was designed by Poul Seest Andersen and manufactured by Le Klint and Holmegaard in Denmark and is 40cm tall from the base to the top of the shade. The vintage lamp is an eggshell white finish. Similar, new lamps are available online at European stores for around $300 AUD.

Tony Awards 2025 winners: Succession's Sarah Snook kicks off the night as she scores Best Actress award for her Broadway debut
The star-studded 78th Annual Tony Awards were held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City on Sunday. The show celebrated Broadway's brightest talents in singing, acting, dancing and more. Sarah Snook, 37, was the first winner of the night for Best Leading Actress in a Play. Snook delivered an unbelievable performance in The Picture of Dorian Gray, playing all 26 characters. The Succession star made her Broadway debut in the ambitious stage adaptation of Oscar Wilde's novel. Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure stars Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter presented her with the award. 'Thank you so much for this. This means so much for a little Australian girl to be here on Broadway,' Sarah told the crowd as she accepted the award. 'Thank you to my incredible team... and just everybody on stage. It is billed as a one person show and I don't feel alone any night that I do this show.' 'There are so many people on the stage making it work and so many people behind the stage making it work.' She also thanked her husband Dave Lawson: 'And an exceptional thank you, the biggest thank you I can ever give to my husband, my soulsmate, you are so brilliant holding family together and looking after the phones.' The most prestigious ceremony honoring theatre is hosted by three-time Oscar nominee Cynthia Erivo, who kicked off the show with a thrilling performance featuring Oprah. This year features major star power in the lead actor and actress categories. George Clooney is competing for his massively successful play Good Night, And Good Luck — an adaptation of the film of the same name that he directed, co-wrote and costarred in — for the lead actor in a play category, while acting legend Mia Farrow is competing against Succession star Sarah Snook and Stranger Things star Sadie Sink in the lead actress in a play category. Darren Criss and Jonathan Groff are adding some star power to the lead actor in a musical category, while Megan Hilty, Nicole Scherzinger and Broadway legend Audra McDonald are some of the biggest names in the lead actress in a musical category. Bob Odenkirk is best known for his film and television work, including his acclaimed run on Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, but he's now nominated in the Best Performance by an Actor in a Featured Role in a Play category for his turn in the revival of David Mamet's iconic drama of desperation, Glengarry Glen Ross. Presenters this year include Charli D'Amelio, Michelle Williams, Hacks' Jean Smart, LaTanya Richardson Jackson and Lea Salonga, all of whom are currently appearing on Broadway. The stage icon Kristin Chenoweth will also be presenting, while Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter will have a Bill and Ted reunion on stage ahead of their upcoming production of Samuel Beckett's Waiting For Godot. Glee star Lea Michele will also be joined on stage by Aaron Tveit. Several former Tony winners will be helping to announce awards, including Oprah Winfrey, Bryan Cranston, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Sarah Paulson, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Kelli O'Hara and Rachel Bay Jones. And the other presenters aren't exactly slouches, as several of them have Oscars and Grammy Awards to their names. They include Ben Stiller, Samuel L. Jackson, Katie Holmes, Jesse Eisenberg, Allison Janney, Ariana DeBose, Adam Lambert, Carrie Preston, Danielle Brooks and Sara Bareilles. Going into the 2025 ceremony, three musicals are leading the pack with 10 nominations each: Buena Vista Social Club, Death Becomes Her and Maybe Happy. Buena Vista Social Club is inspired by the beloved Cuban ensemble of the same name, which recorded a hit eponymous album in 1997 and was documented in Wim Wenders' acclaimed documentary (also of the same name) in 1999. Death Becomes Her is based on the Robert Zemeckis fantastical black comedy from 1992, which starred Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn and Bruce Willis. Unlike those musicals, which are adapted from existing music and films, Maybe Happy is a science fiction–romance that originated in South Korea. It follows two android helper-bots who develop feelings for each other, despite the fact that their short life spans threaten any future plans. Dead Outlaw, John Proctor Is The Villain, Sunset Blvd. and The Hills Of California are all tied for seven Tony nominations, while Floyd Collins, Justin In Time, Purpose and The Picture Of Dorian Gray are tied for six. Dead Outlaw and Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical are also competing in the Best Musical category, while English, The Hills Of California, John Proctor Is The Villain, Oh, Mary! and Purpose are vying for Best Play. Purpose and English have already been honored with Pulitzer Prizes. This year's nominated revivals include Eureka Day, Romeo + Juliet, Thornton Wilder's Our Town and David Henry Hwang's Yellow Face in the play category, while Floyd Collins, Gypsy, Pirates! The Penzanze Musical and Sunset Blvd. fill out the Best Revival of a Musical category. The performances this year will highlight all of the new and revived musical nominees, as well as Just In Time and Real Women Have Curves, which weren't nominated in best musical or revival but did receive other major nominations. The 2025 Tonys will look to the past as well with a tribute to Hamilton for its 10th anniversary as the original cast reunites for a performance. Miranda will be accompanied by Leslie Odom Jr., Phillipa Soo, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Daveed Diggs, Ariana DeBose, Jonathan Groff and Christopher Jackson, all of whom were part of the original production. Erivo, 38, was better known for her work in the theatre before expanding into a successful film and television career. The Wicked Star — who recently stirred up controversy when she was announced as the star of a production of Jesus Christ Superstar being held at the Hollywood Bowl in August — is already three-quarters of the way toward completing the rare and coveted EGOT after winning an Emmy, a Grammy and a Tony. Along the way, she also received nominations for four Golden Globe Awards, two British Academy Film Awards and two Screen Actors Guild Awards. She previously starred on Broadway in the popular adaptation of The Color Purple, which led to her performing its song I'm Here at the 2016 Tonys. The three-hour show, which starts at 8 p.m. ET/ 5 p.m. PT, can be watched live on CBS or streamed on Paramount+ with Showtime. Users with the Paramount+ Essential subscription will have the option to begin watching the show on the following day.
