EXCLUSIVE Brittany Hockley's wedding guest list raises eyebrows as it's revealed who's in and who's out of her friendship group
Brittany Hockley is counting down the days until she and her Swiss footballer fiancé Benjamin Siegrist say 'I do' in Bali.
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.'
