The ex-wife of rugby league player Sam Burgess appeared at the spring racing carnival event looking stunning dressed in white.
“Heading to the most spectacular Birdcage tent,” he gloated on his Instagram Stories.
‘Up to level three.’
The Birdcage venue at Flemington Racecourse is a place of unrivaled extravagance and hedonism, with big name sponsors sparing no expense while their wealthy guests enjoy the life of luxury during the Melbourne Cup Carnival.
Phoebe wore a country-inspired dress with puff sleeves, a leg slit, and a built-in bow in the front.
Perched on a bar overlooking the racetrack, with one heeled foot peeking out from under her skirt, Phoebe wrote: “Pick the winners and a couple of non-winners, from above.”
The sheer white fabric had lace details and an elegant buttoned neckline.

Other guests enjoying the VIP experience on Saturday included Snezana Wood, Khan Hong, Tayla Broad, Tim Robards and Rebecca Judd.
In the grand tradition of racing fashion, Phoebe opted for statement hats.
Her large, wide-brimmed white hat with an attached gold chain matched the rest of her outfit, and she finished her look with white pumps.
After sharing pictures of her outfit on Instagram, Phoebe’s fans went wild with the comments.
“You look gorgeous in that dress,” one follower wrote, while another said, “You look gorgeous, I hope you win.”
“Stunning dressed in white,” said another, while one more told the influencer that she looked “sensational.”
It comes as Jana Hocking recently advised Phoebe to drop her ex-husband Sam Burgess’s surname.
“Let me put it bluntly: it’s time to give up the ghost of husbands past,” Hocking wrote in her Daily Mail Australia Mail+ column.

“Yes, I’m talking about your Instagram account @mrsphoebeburgess,” she added, before suggesting that keeping the name makes Phoebe seem “a little obsessed with the past when it’s clear your ex-husband is long gone.”
Sam Burgess recently married his new wife Lucy in a lavish Roman wedding.
Sam and his ex-wife Phoebe married in 2015, separated in late 2018, and resumed their relationship in early 2019.
They separated permanently on October 2 of that year and later divorced, with Phoebe keeping her husband’s name despite the bitter separation.
