Brittany Hockley and Ben Siegrist have officially tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in Bali.
Hockley, 37, said 'I do' to her partner, Swiss footballer Siegrist, 33, at the romantic Pandawa Cliff Estate on Wednesday.
The luxury resort overlooks the stunning Bukit Peninsula, providing a breathtaking clifftop backdrop for their nuptials.
The Life Uncut co-host, who first rose to fame as a contestant on The Bachelor in 2015, took to Instagram on Thursday evening to share the first photos from their wedding.
'From the very first day, it was you. Across any ocean, it is you. For the rest of our lives, it will always be you. Mr and Mrs Siegrist. 4.6.2025,' she captioned the post.
In the first photo, the newlyweds share a swooping kiss, looking completely loved up.
Hockley wore an ethereal custom gown by designer Steven Khalil, featuring a strapless lace corset and a floral embroidered skirt, paired with a matching floral neckpiece.
Her hair was styled in a sleek low bun, adorned with a long, whimsical train.
A second photo shows the couple holding hands, hugging, and beaming for the camera.
The comments section was quickly filled with messages of support and excitement from friends and fans alike.
Hockley's podcast co-host and close friend Laura Byrne wrote, 'THERE SHE IS!!!!! The most stunning bride and groom ever. What a day'.
Zoe Marshall replied, 'Ahhhhhh beautiful'.
Radio presenter Mitch Churi said, 'I'm still crying (and picking firework shrapnel from my quiff) '.
Married At First Sight star Tahnee Cook commented, 'Congrats my love – you look absolutely beautiful'.
Designer Steven Khalil commented, 'Absolutely incredible! So thrilled for you!'
In November last year, Hockley shared a selfie with Khalil in the moments after she said 'yes to the dress'.
She described the gown as 'magical, dreamy and beautiful' and said she was 'obsessed' with it.
Hockley's dramatic wedding look followed her equally as eye-catching hen's party outfit.
She celebrated the pre-wedding bash with friends on a yacht on Sydney Harbour, wearing a miniskirt and a structured one-shoulder crop top.
Fans said the influencer looked 'hot', 'glowing' and 'gorgeous' at the event.
The Life Uncut podcast announced Hockley's engagement to Siegrist last year.
At the time, Hockley – who once described herself as 'the perpetually single host' – had been dating Siegrist long-distance for eight months when he popped the question.
In her engagement post, she shared her excitement, writing: 'In any lifetime it's a YES! Just two people loving each other for the rest of our lives'.
Hockley went Instagram official with the European goalkeeper in January last year.
The pair first met in November 2022 on the celebrity dating app Raya.

EOFY 2025: Best flight, hotel and luggage deals

It's not June 30 yet but already travel brands are dropping exceptional deals in our laps. So far I've seen discounts running as high as 72 per cent off and everything from flights, hotels, luggage and travel insurance to theme parks tickets and eSIMs on the chopping block. If there was ever a good time to book an entire holiday on discount, now would be it. Starting with hotels, Luxury Escapes has you sorted with resort stays for thousands of dollars less. Saving you the big bucks, five night getaways at Samabe Bali Suites & Villas will set you back $3999 per villa (valued up to $14,965) and includes all meals, nightly cocktails and your own private pool. The term "dreamy" is an understatement. If you're still eyeing a White Lotus-inspired Thai holiday, Flight Centre can sort you out with 60 per cent off stays at the Kamala Beach Resort in Phuket. This adults-only bolthole is blessed with beach views and this deal includes an upgrade to a Deluxe Room. At $330 per person for eight nights, it's wildly affordable, but you need to jump on this deal as it ends June 6. To get you to your destination, Flight Centre's got loads of seats at eye wateringly low prices. Highlights include New Zealand flights from $389 return on Jetstar, Fiji flights from $609 return on Fiji Airways and London flights from $1525 return on Cathay Pacific. Want to splash out on business class? There's premium flight deals too with seats to Singapore at the pointy end of the plane down to $3285 return. This EOFY, practically every luggage brand has jumped on board, slashing their cases by up to 50 per cent off. American Tourister, Antler, Myer and Strandbags are running these big numbers, while Samsonite has decided to go all-in with 40 per cent off sitewide. Yes, SITEWIDE. If you feel like playing the comparison (or the price match) game, The Iconic is well stocked with Samsonite, Nere and American Tourister. Most are already discounted by 40 per cent off, but hey, if you find it cheaper, why not call in that price match guarantee? Not fussed about brand names? Amazon's Mid-Year sale is riddled with lesser known brands and designer dupes for a steal. We're crushing over this $80 Inateck Travel Backpack. With its 46.2L capacity, laptop sleep and 1000+ reviews, it's the ultimate cabin backpack. Amazons Basic's suitcase range is also worth a gander. They've received over 51,000 reviews and start from $89.85. In other travel deals, Klook is running Travel Deal Days where theme parks, tours, eSIMs and cruises across the world are up to half price, WAS Insurance is saving you that much more (10 per cent to be exact) on policies with the code WISESILENT10 and trtl's in-flight accessory bundles are up to 40 per cent less. Because comfort is key to a great flight. Deals are dropping daily, and we'll do our best to keep you across all that are worth knowing about.

MrBeast's secret $1 billion property empire revealed

MrBeast revealed he's borrowing money from his mum to pay for his upcoming wedding to Thea Booysen despite his billionaire status and owning a slew of properties. According to Page Six, the YouTuber, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, responded via X after a fan post described him as 'the only billionaire under 30 to not have inherited his wealth.' 'I personally have very little money because I reinvest everything (I think this year we'll spend around a quarter of a billion on content),' he wrote. 'Ironically I'm actually borrowing $ from my mom [sic] to pay for my upcoming wedding lol,' Donaldson, 27, continued. 'But sure, on paper the businesses I own are worth a lot.' The content creator — who has more than 400 million subscribers — rose to fame on YouTube by sharing over-the-top stunts and challenges. He has also garnered popularity with his fan giveaways, offering up luxurious gifts like cars. Donaldson expanded his fanbase when he released Season 1 of 'Beast Games' on Prime Video in December 2024. During the competition series, one out of 1,000 participants took home $US10 million. The show, which garnered 50 million views within 25 days of its release, has already been renewed for two more seasons, per Variety. Donaldson also owns Feastables chocolate and snack brand, as well as the MrBeast Lab toy line. The entrepreneur is believed to be the first ever YouTube billionaire, earning around $US250,000 (A$385,630) a day or $US83 million a year. Despite being worth an estimated $US1 billion ($A1.5 billion), Donaldson lives in a no-bedroom studio apartment and doubles as his office in his hometown of Greenville, North Carolina. The bed is located in the corner of the living room with a couch, a TV, and a coffee table. Other areas in the home include a bathroom and a closet. The humble property features a gallery of awards from YouTube and framed photos of Apple founder Steve Jobs adorning the walls. Donaldson previously spoke about his decision to live a frugal lifestyle on the TMG podcast. 'I think one of the traps of modern humans is just living a materialistic life and just chasing s**t non-stop. For what? Why does it matter?,' he said. 'We just chase bigger and bigger boxes to live in, faster and faster cars. Why? Why not just skip all that and do fun s**t?' 'If you have a $10 million mansion and five Lamborghinis and all this s**t then you have to, like, worry, like, 'Oh s**t, if things fall apart I can't afford my lifestyle.' I don't give a f**k, I live in a dorm room. 'My s**t could fall apart tomorrow and my lifestyle doesn't change. 'So there's also a lot of peace of mind with that, because I don't have to maintain anything.' Although he chooses to live in his no-bed home, Donaldson has amassed quite a property portfolio in North Carolina. He snapped up a neighbourhood for himself, his family and his employees after buying five houses in a cul-de-sac in Greenville. Donaldson bought a two-storey four-bedroom property on the street in 2018 for around $US320,000. Over the years, Donaldson reportedly purchased the houses off-market.
