The jaw-dropping cost of Tammy Hembrow's wedding is revealed as she splits from Matt Zukowski after just seven months of marriage
Tammy Hembrow had spared no expensive for her wedding to Matt Zukowski before splitting just seven months later.
The fitness influencer, 31, spent an estimated $227,000 on her nuptials, according to leading bridalwear fashion brand Gingham & Heels and Kate Hart, the owner of Hey Lovers.
Tammy's intimate Byron Bay wedding in November would have set her back $32,428 for each month she was married.
'With designer accents including a Vera Wang gown, a pair of designer Jimmy Choo shoes and a large bridal party, a significant spend would have gone just into gowns and attire,' Kate said.
She went on to say Tammy and Matt's wedding bands cost a reported $23,000 while the abundant florals and lavish styling would have come at a high price.
From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, .
'It's very difficult to determine the cost for food and drinks for guests in attendance, but with bespoke ice sculptures in place and oyster service, one can assume no expense was spared to ensure that the guest experience was at an exceptional level,' Kate added.
However, Tammy is in a fortunate position as her huge Instagram following means she can earn $45,315 per sponsored social media post - allowing her to pay off her wedding in just four posts.
Meanwhile, Tammy announced her shock split from her husband of seven months, Matt in an emotional video on Sunday.
The Love Island Australia star also revealed the couple's separation in a sombre Instagram Story, telling fans the decision was not taken lightly.
'It's with a heavy heart I share that Tammy and I have decided to separate,' Matt began.
'Both of us have struggled with making this decision however we need to do what is right for ourselves and her three children.
'This wasn't a decision we took lightly. Our time together will always be cherished and never forgotten,' he added, before thanking fans for their support and asking for privacy.
Despite their short-lived marriage, both parties have asked for privacy as they adjust to life post-breakup.
'We appreciate everyone's support and space at this time as we navigate the split,' Matt concluded in his emotional post.
Tammy later addressed the split in an emotional TikTok video, telling fans she will be getting a divorce.
'I don't want to get into the details and I want to be sensitive to everyone involved,' she told fans.
'Obviously when you marry someone, you do it thinking that it is going to be forever and I blame no one but myself,' Tammy continued while breaking down in tears.
'I've made not the best choices when it comes to relationships. I'm good at putting on rose-coloured glasses.
'Obviously the worst part for me is that I have kids. I don't care about me, I know I will be ok but I feel awful.'
The news came less than 24 hours after Matt was spotted spending time with sports journalist Tayla Little at the London Tavern in Melbourne on Saturday night.
Tammy, 31, first sparked concern in March after she was spotted crying in a bathroom, while Matt was later overheard allegedly ' talking crap' about his wife at a South Melbourne gym.
In the weeks that followed, Matt quietly moved out of the couple's Queensland home and relocated back to Melbourne, where he resumed working for his father's pool business.
While Matt continued to co-host his podcast Where's Your Head At? with ex-girlfriend and fellow Love Island alum Anna McEvoy, Tammy was noticeably absent from his social media.
Meanwhile, the Gold Coast-based influencer has remained in Queensland with her three children - son Wolf, nine, daughter Saskia, seven, and toddler Posy, three - from previous relationships.
Matt was notably missing from several major family events over the past two months, including Tammy's 31st birthday, Posy's fairy-themed third birthday party, and even Easter weekend.
Tammy and Matt tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony at Chateau Du Soleil in Byron Bay on November 23.
They got engaged in December 2023 following just three months of dating.
The jet-setting pair were engaged in the Maldives, before heading off to Greece and Bali for luxury holidays.
Tammy has been engaged twice before, the first time to influencer Reece Hawkins, who she shares her son Wolf and daughter Saskia with.

Home and Away star George Pullar marries long-time partner Charlie Francis in lavish intimate wedding
Home and Away star George Pullar has quietly married his longtime partner Charlie Francis in an intimate countryside ceremony. The Gold Coast actor, 28, and healthcare practice manager, 29, wed in Northern New South Wales last month. George, who joined Australia's longest running soap in 2024 as Tim Russell, has been drip-feeding photographs from the big day to social media as he settles into newlywed life with his bride. 'The long game works,' he captioned a carousel of photos from the gorgeous sunset ceremony at Fins at Plantation House in Kingscliff. The Playing for Keeps actor made a cheeky reference to the unconventional way he met his future wife in a hospital. 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. 'George had a bacterial infection in his foot from a reef cut while surfing and I worked at the hospital (in a cardiac clinic),' bride Charlie told the Courier Mail. 'It was during Covid, so George wasn't allowed any visitors,' Charlie continued. 'He contacted me to ask if I wanted to stop by for a visit after work. We just remember talking for hours and how effortless it was. We both knew it was the start of something special.' Five years later, the happy couple surprised and delighted their 188 wedding guests with a choreographed first dance to Michael Jackson's The Way You Make Me Feel. Charlie wore a stunning two-piece bridal couture set by Middle Eastern-inspired Australian label, Bo & Luca. The Poppy tiered skirt, made from pure silk chiffon and hand-embroidered with unfurling poppies made from glass beads, retails for $5800. The beaming bride finished her classic, yet laid-back, bridal look with the matching $860 Juliet-style veil. 'The Poppy gown was the first thing I ever tried on,' she told Courier Mail. 'I instantly fell in love with the intricate detail and boho feel of the gown. I wanted a fun party dress for the dance floor.' George complemented the lush countryside scenery in a forest green suit by Sydney-based suit tailors Oscar Hunt, which he accessorised with a white rose lapel. The eight bridesmaids and groomsmen were dressed in black-and-grey suits and long floral maxi dresses, paired with natural bouquets. The newlyweds let their hair down at the reception and downed a few margaritas prior to performing their tightly rehearsed first dance. Charlie stepped out in a gorgeous flapper-style Cynthia Mini dress by Rachel Gilbert. The $1800 ostrich feather ensemble allowed her to wrap her legs around her husband's waist and really get into the dance routine. 'We wanted a wedding location that felt remote and intimate but was also not too far from guest accommodation,' Charlie said. 'We truly wouldn't change a thing, but we did make the decision early on in our wedding preparation that if we were going to splurge on anything, it would be the band. And that turned out to be a great call. We wanted an epic dance floor and we got one.' 'Still buzzing from the most incredible weekend,' George captioned a second carousel of photos from that dance floor. The first image shows him making out with his bride, with his new wedding band on display and a Corona in hand. Short videos showed the couple partying away the weekend with all their nearest and dearest on the beach. George joined the cast of Home and Away in 2024 and his character, Tim, was introduced as a new love interest for Eden Fowler, played by Stephanie Panozzo. The December cliffhanger for the soap opera saw Cash (Nicholas Cartwright) waking up next to Tim's lifeless body.

Would you leave the house wearing this outfit? Aussie reality star turns heads in VERY risqué outfit
She may not have won Locky Gilbert 's heart on The Bachelor, but she certainly earned plenty of fans with her quirky penguin outfit on the red carpet. But over the weekend, Rosemary Sawtell swapped her novelty costume for a very risqué ensemble as she celebrated her 29th birthday in Brisbane. Rosemary had all eyes on her in a golden halter-neck dress that highlighted her ample bosom. 'L8 2 the party, L8 2 post … Never L8 when u need me the most x,' she playfully captioned the carousel of images shared to Instagram. The glamorous blonde looked absolutely stunning, wearing a full face of makeup for the occasion. 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. In one snap, the blonde beauty can be seen holding up an oversized cocktail, while posing for a photo. A second photo sees the reality star posing alongside a blonde friend, wearing a golden sash with the words 'Birthday Queen' written across it. Rosemary looked worlds away from her stint on the ill-fated dating show back in 2020, while vying for Locky's heart. Rosemary previously revealed that she felt a lot of 'anxiety' about posting the photo because she had 'struggled to accept' her body for years. She said that she 'struggled with my weight and body confidence' for years and had been told by others in the past that she was 'chubby'. However, the Brisbane native said she was working on 'being kinder' to herself in the future. 'I have a long way to go, but I am so proud of myself for being in such a good stage of my self love journey that I have decided to post this photo today,' she added. 'This is one of many little steps I will be taking towards being kinder to myself and hopefully becoming more body confident in the future!' Rosemary was kicked off just six episodes into the series. Locky chose Melbourne nurse Irena Srbinovska as his final pick instead. Locky and Irena welcomed their first child, daughter, Ava, in February, last year.

US expat makes a brutal observation of Aussies during flu season... but all is not as it seems
A US expat has taken aim at how Australians cope during flu season - but his experience of life Down Under isn't quite as it seems. Jack Sheader, 24, has caused a stir with his observations about daily life in Australia from his home in Sydney 's Northern Beaches from America. Mr Sheader, who works in marketing, made a TikTok video about the very common phrase used by Australians during the cooler months. 'So a fun little fact about Australia is that in the months of winter if you have flu-like symptoms in front of someone else there is a 100 per cent chance that person will turn to you and say "Yeah, there's something going around, isn't there?"' he said. 'All of my Australian friends have said those words to me.' 'Even complete strangers that I do not know will say those exact words to me "There's something going around". 'Is this a common turn of phrase in Australia that I don't know of?' He signed off by asking Aussies if they had noticed this popular phrase Down Under. But, in a major twist, Mr Sheader revealed to this publication he is in fact Australian. 'I am actually just an Australian doing an American accent. It's reassuring to know that my accent was convincing enough to fool the masses,' he said. The 24-year-old has shared dozens of videos documenting his time as an 'American' in Australia including trying Vegemite for the first time. In one video, he enraged viewers when he peeled back the plastic on a 'squeeze-on' sauce sachet - a notoriously Australian invention. 'A lesson in "How to trigger the Aussie population in less than 30 secs". Well played sir!!' one person commented. 'Aussies are all screaming at the screen!' another wrote. Explaining why he adopted the American persona, Mr Sheader said he was finding it impossible to escape the US in any Australian media outlet. 'I struggle to come to terms with the fact that despite facing global crises, my social media was constantly inundated by the circus in the States,' he explained. 'The content started as satire, as a way to poke fun at those in the US who forget they are but one part of a much larger system. 'What I did not expect to see however, was the Australia band together and share a laugh at the absurdity. 'In fact it was quite beautiful seeing how proud we are as a nation and of our education system, cultural norms and other standards we take for granted!'
