Georgia Love has commented on speculation she's split from husband Lee Elliott after weeks of rumours came to a head on Boxing Day.
The 35-year-old former The Bachelorette Australia star has been seen without her engagement and wedding sparklers on her left ring finger on several occasions throughout December.
Coupled with the fact that she'd jetted off to New York City without Elliott after seemingly spending Christmas apart, fans of the couple were concerned they'd called it quits – and she's now addressed it on social media.

Others replied to the comment alleging the couple had broken up, with Love herself replying shortly after to hose down the rumours.

Ultimately, Elliott was chosen by Love as her winning partner, with the couple marrying outside of Hobart, Tasmania, in 2021.
The couple had gotten engaged in September 2019 on a boat in the Hawkesbury River, the same one from their first date together on the reality series.

Elliott, meanwhile, spent Friday at the Melbourne Cricket Ground watching the second day of the Boxing Day test.

"This is just how I look. And I'm really, really sick of being made to feel like it's not good enough," she continued.
"This is a happy photo of two happy people celebrating their friends' wedding. In what world should my body come into it?
"Feel free to comment below about how beautiful the wedding was, how nice it is to see us back together after I've been away, that you like our outfits or, if you REALLY feel the need to comment on how I look, you can point out how good my bum looks when I wasn't even wearing underwear 💁🏼♀️," she concluded.
