Controversial Gold Coast influencers Mitchell Orval and Chloe Szepanowski move to surprise location three years after home invasion that left them 'traumatised'
Mitchell Orval and Chloe Szepanowski are making the move and starting fresh in a new state.
The controversial Gold Coast influencers, who had their home broken into back in 2022, are moving to Newcastle after Mitchell's brother confirmed the relocation in an Instagram comment.
Chloe, 26, took to Instagram in May to share a picture of a removalist van at her and Mitch's, 28, Palm Beach pad.
'Moving day,' she captioned the post, which showed a truck parked outside her home.
'We have a few weeks until settlement so we are storing everything until we move! So so handy.'

She also posted a clip of workers lifting their furniture and carrying it out of their home.
Ever since, fans have been scratching their heads as to where the young family will be setting down their roots, with many questioning if they'll stay on the Gold Coast or move across the country.
Mitchell's brother Dylan cleared the air, commenting on a post by an influencer news Instagram page that the couple were heading to New South Wales.
'They're moving to Newcastle,' he wrote, accompanied with a crying emoji.
This isn't the first time the couple have moved house.
Three years ago, Mitchell and Chloe fled their $2.75 million home after intruders entered the premises a few months prior, trying to steal their car.
The couple said they sold their mansion because they were too 'traumatised' to go back after the brazen break-in early in the year.
The Szep founder took to social media to disclose the reason why she had to leave the Gold Coast home with her family.
'We have a few weeks until settlement so we are storing everything until we move!' she wrote
'We got broken into at 3am one morning when we were all upstairs,' Szepanowski wrote in the post on Monday.
'The footage gives me legit trauma 'cause I was upstairs screaming, while I didn't know what was happening downstairs.'
Two figures were seen in the video running from the house - one got into Szepanowski's car, while the other opened the big gate before fleeing on foot.
After it was opened, Orval's car is seen parked at the gate, blocking the exit.
The video then showed the person in the car trying to manoeuvre it out, but with the exit obstructed they were unable to get out.
An enraged Orval is seen in the video running out in the night to confront the car thief, before he is almost run over and crushed by the vehicle during the fracas.
Orval had gone downstairs and 'caught them in our house', the YouTuber said, before speaking about the confrontation her boyfriend had with 'a guy' in her car.
'They got my keys and tried to steal my car, while Mitch's car was in the driveway so they couldn't get out,' Szepanowski said.
'It was basically Mitch and this guy going head to head in the front yard ... the guy tried to run Mitch over with my car multiple times.'
'I thought Mitch was legit going to be dead on the driveway' the fashion influencer said. 'This is the third time in 2022 we got broken into, but this time it was really traumatic for the entire family.'
She said she learnt the value of safety that night, especially having her son Arti in the house.
'You go into some crazy mode of survival and fight when someone is in your house and you have a young [one] to protect.'
The online star said the house's location had been posted 'everywhere literally' since the family had moved in but took the ordeal as a lesson to become more private.
