Brittany Hockley joked that she practiced “making babies” while discussing her very romantic “engagement moon” with new fiancé Benjamin Siegrist.
The Bachelor star, 36, recently returned from a luxurious trip to the Maldives with Swiss goalie Ben, 32, after he popped the question in a beach proposal last month.
Brittany has now given a sneak peek into their “engagement moon” and hinted that they got into the romantic spirit as they chatted with her BFF Laura Byrne.
Brittany released her latest Life Uncut podcast episode saying: ‘We’re back from our baby holiday – wow, that sounded like I’d had a baby, I meant like a mini holiday!’
She then cheekily joked: “I had a break and I practised making babies, so it was kind of a baby break,” leaving her co-host Laura amused.
The I’m A Celebrity Australia star went on to give some insight into how her relationship with Benjamin has changed since they got engaged.
She gushed that she loved him even more since they got engaged and sweetly said that she knew he was “the one” since they started dating.
“I love him endlessly, even before we got engaged I knew he was the one. I loved him so much! Then when we got engaged I loved him even more,” she said.
Brittany Hockley joked that she practiced “making babies” while talking about her very romantic “engagement moon” with new fiancé Benjamin Siegrist.
‘I look at it all the time, it’s disgusting and I disgust myself. I look at it and think, ‘I can’t believe you’re mine,’ and then I throw up in my mouth.’
She also revealed that their long-distance relationship is getting harder after their engagement as she wants to spend more time with him.
The couple currently divide their time between Australia and Scotland, where Benjamin lives and plays as a goalkeeper for top-flight football club Celtic.
Despite being engaged, they are currently continuing their long-distance relationship, although Benjamin is considering moving to Australia in the future.
“I don’t think it’s going to change much,” Ben recently said of his long-distance romance. “I proposed because I’m in love, so that doesn’t change… It doesn’t really change for me or for us.”
“Obviously the ultimate goal is to live together, of course… At some point, after my career or just before it comes to an end, I would love to live in Australia. I love Australia. I love the people, how friendly they are.”
The Bachelor star, 36, recently returned from a luxurious trip to the Maldives with goalie Ben, 32, and hinted they got into the romantic spirit as they celebrated their engagement.
Brittany added, “For us, this has worked out well so far and it will continue to work because right now I’m not saying yes to marrying someone for day-to-day reasons. I’m saying yes to marrying the person who they are.”
Brittany announced her engagement last month in an adorable post that offered a sneak peek at Benjamin’s romantic beach proposal.
In photos shared on Instagram, Brittany looked radiant from ear to ear as she showed off her sparkling diamond.
In the caption accompanying the photo, she enthused: “In any life, it’s a YES! Just two people loving each other for the rest of our lives.”
On her Life Uncut podcast, Brittany said the engagement ring was sourced and made in Dubai and features a hidden halo beneath the diamond in a pavé setting.
He also explained that the diamond is lab-grown, which is more cost-effective and ethically sourced compared to natural diamonds.
“Whenever Ben and I talked about getting engaged, I always said two things I wanted: yellow gold and then I always wanted a lab-grown diamond,” Brittany said.

‘Ben didn’t know much about it at the time, but he said, “Don’t you want a real diamond?” And I said, “It’s identical. It’s exactly the same, except it’s ethically sourced.”
The cost of a lab-grown diamond is 40 to 50 percent less than that of a diamond mined from the earth, although it is still a real diamond.
Brittany made her relationship with Benjamin Instagram official in January of last year after meeting in November 2022 on the celebrity dating app Raya.
They connected on the dating app while Benjamin and his Celtic FC teammates were in Australia playing against Sydney FC.
