“They are on a break, but plan to reevaluate their relationship when Georgia returns home from the United States,” the source tells Us.

“The time apart could be good for them and I think they’ve both had a chance to see what life would be like if they split up (officially).

To be honest, they’re both surprised there’s been so much interest. They have agreed not to speak directly to the media, at least not until they find out where they are.

The source adds that Lee “has always supported Georgia in following her dreams” and “I think No matter what happens, you will remain friends for the long term.

“Everyone, including them, hopes things will work out and I guess that’s why they’ve been so reluctant to address anything officially.”

As he rummaged around, it became clear that he was not wearing his wedding ring.

The next morning, a Daily Mail Australia reporter went to the estranged couple’s home, where she found Lee taking photographs of Georgia’s red Volkswagen Eos.

When asked if he wanted to say anything about their breakup, Lee’s response effectively confirmed what our insider had said about their pact to remain silent.

He didn’t deny they had split up, but politely said he couldn’t comment, then got into his ute and drove off to work..

The next morning, Friday, our snapper caught Lee looking dejected having coffee in Hampton. Again without her wedding ring, she looked on the verge of tears.

It comes as fans on Instagram continue to press Georgia over her husband’s whereabouts while on holiday in the US. She hasn’t confirmed a breakup or trial separation, instead offering the more general response that he is “home.”

‘Where’s Lee?’ one user asked in their comments section, adding a sad face emoji.

“He’s at home, I’m here visiting my friend,” Georgia responded, adding that she was “incredibly tired of this question.”

One follower asked: ‘Oh, you broke up with Lee?’ prompting another to respond: “Poor Lee.”

‘Because?’ Georgia responded bluntly.

The only time Georgia directly addressed the split rumors was last month when she responded to a follower who asked if Lee would join her on her Boxing Day flight to the Big Apple and, if not, why.

“The best thing is to stop speculating, and even less so on my own page,” he said. “If I had something to say to everyone, I would do it myself.”

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Georgia and Lee on multiple occasions about the status of their relationship.

They have not been photographed together since September and Georgia has attended several events without wearing her diamond engagement ring and wedding ring, including at a Christmas party where Lee was noticeably absent.

Questions first arose when Georgia posted a video on social media of herself decorating her Christmas tree at home and there was nothing on her left ring finger.

Shortly after, another photo showed her at an outdoor cafe with a friend and she was also not wearing a ring, suggesting that the previous clip was not unique..

It comes as fans on Instagram continue to press Georgia over her husband’s whereabouts while on holiday in the US. She hasn’t confirmed a separation or a trial separation, instead offering the more general answer that Lee is “home.”

Realizing this was unusual for Georgia, eagle-eyed fans flocked to the comments section to ask if she and Lee had ended their relationship.

This, in turn, led others to note that the couple had not been photographed together for a few months, leading to speculation that they could become Australia’s “first bachelor divorce”.

The couple met and fell in love on the 2016 season of The Bachelorette, in which Georgia, a former television news reporter, chose Tradie Lee as her winning suitor.

They married in 2021 at Frogmore Creek Winery outside Hobart, followed by an outdoor reception at Shene Distillery.

The lovebirds were due to get married in Italy the year before but were forced to cancel due to Covid travel restrictions.

The following year, they moved into their $1.3 million home in the luxurious Melbourne suburb of Hampton East.
