The two are now married with a three-year old child, and expecting a second this year, and live in a ritzy Dover Heights home in Sydney’s East.
The six bedroom grand residence features stunning water views over Pittwater, a tennis court, pool and spa over the extensive 4,091 square metre grounds.
Decorated with multiple chandeliers throughout the living and dining spaces, the tall windows and balconies give the mansion a French inspired design, almost like you could be in provincial France.
There is also a home office, library, games room and gym.
During the filming of the season, the Bayview mansion was adorned in flowers to set the romantic scene for the contestants of The Bachelor.
