Natalie Bassingthwaighte has fans convinced she's married partner Pip Loth after sharing VERY telling photo
Natalie Bassingthwaighte has sent her fans into a frenzy after posting a loved-up picture with her partner Pip Loth.
The Aussie actress, 49, who hard launched her relationship with Pip in 2023, shared a sweet snap of the two on Instagram on Wednesday.
However, the candid photo sparked controversy online over its various bridal elements.
First off, both Natalie and Pip wore white in the picture, with the Neighbours star donning an elegant sleeveless dress in a chiffon-like material.
She looked regal as she paired the ensemble with some impressive diamond earrings and swept her golden lock in a messy bun.

Her partner decided on a white suit for the occasion, which many assumed meant wedding bells for the two.
The caption didn't help when it came to fuelling marriage speculation.
'Doing this life with you my [heart],' she captioned the post, while tagging Pip.
She added: 'Thanks for putting [on] the most beautiful event @thecalilehotel @zenakdor we adore you.'
Fans flooded the post with love for the couple, with one writing: 'Beautiful. Wishing you all the love.'
Another wrote: 'Total cuties, you two' while some questioned if the pair had wed.
It came to light that the couple were, in fact, attending an event for House of K'Dor, a diamond and gemstone boutique, where they were asked to wear all white.
Natalie has previously opened up about her relationship with her partner Pip.
The Australian singer described her romance as 'beautiful' and said that Pip 'understands' her more than any other person who has been in her life
'They get me more than I understand myself,' she told Stellar.
'It's been the wildest time in my life and it's beautiful.'
Shedding light on her experience coming out and the fear that often comes with it, Natalie said it was more of an internal battle than one she was facing with the people around her.
'What I've learnt over this time is that I think I had internalised homophobia myself, so I was terrified about what people would say and think and feel,' she told host Sarrah Le Marquand for the podcast.
'That's just ingrained in growing up in a certain time when you weren't allowed to be.'
'It doesn't mean I don't get scared sometimes but that debilitating fear has gone. And it's beautiful.
'I feel heard, I feel safe, I feel connected.'
Natalie and her estranged husband Cameron McGlinchey split after 13 years of marriage in August 2023.
The pair, who married in 2011, share daughter Harper, 13, and son Hendrix, 10.
Natalie made her public debut with new partner Pip Loth during a low-key outing in Queensland in April 2023.
Natalie then revealed she was dating a woman in a 2023 interview with Stellar magazine and later disclosed Pip's name on Instagram 10 days later.
'I'm in a beautiful relationship with a woman who makes my heart smile and makes me really happy,' she revealed to the magazine.
Before finding love, Natalie and Pip worked together on the Melbourne production of Jagged Little Pill in 2021.

Lady Violet Manners marries her ‘Caledonian cowboy' in the society wedding of the year
It's been dubbed one of the society weddings of the year, and when Lady Violet Manners tied the knot to William James Lindesay-Bethune on Saturday at her family seat Belvoir Castle, the event lived up to the hype. Wearing a gown with a high, ruffled neckline and puffed sleeves, the sheer panel across her décolletage was embroidered with stars. The skirt was a cascade of ruffles. Violet's hair was styled up to better show off her headpiece – the grand Rutland tiara, which has been in her family since the 18th century. The groom, of Scottish descent, wore a kilt in the Lindsay family tartan, complete with a tasselled sporran. The bridesmaids – dressed in violet, naturally – included the other two Manners sisters, Eliza and Alice, as well as Devisha Kumari Singh. The mother of the bride, Emma Manners, looked resplendent in a pale pink jacquard coat featuring bows at the sleeves, completed by an angled, wide-brimmed hat. Guests included Lady Tatiana Mountbatten, Lady Sabrina Percy and Princess Alexandra's granddaughter Flora Vesterberg. With a decadent 360 rooms, there was plenty of space for everyone at the 16,000-acre Leicestershire stately home – a location grand enough to pass for Windsor Castle in the Netflix show The Crown. Violet, 31, is the eldest of the 11th Duke of Rutland's five children and one third of what society magazine Tatler dubbed high society's 'most glamorous set of sisters' – a group whose party-girl reputations once earned them the lighthearted nickname 'the bad-manners sisters.' Often likened to the Kardashians for their fondness for sharing their lifestyles on social media, Violet's marriage to Bill, 34, son of the 16th Earl of Lindsay (also known as Viscount Garnock), unites two storied families in what Tatler called a 'family line as illustrious as it is complex.' The Manners family history dates back to 1066 and includes 36 successive generations of Dukes and Duchesses. The title of Earl of Lindsay has been part of the Scottish peerage since 1633, but the family's aristocratic roots stretch back to the Norman Conquest. 'The wedding of Lady Violet Manners to Viscount Garnock officially kicks off high society wedding season,' says Tatler features director Eilidh Hargreaves. 'To be followed by Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's Venice nuptials and Zac Goldsmith and Hum Fleming's Cotswolds wedding later this summer […] Just like Zac and Hum, this marks the coming together of two dynasties.' The nuptials, announced last July, came as a 'surprise' to many, says one insider, who revealed that many of Lady Violet's friends had yet to meet Bill before their engagement was announced via Instagram. Featuring a picture of the pair in front of Colorado's Rocky Mountains, with a ring on Lady Violet's engagement finger, her caption read: 'I said 'yes' to my Caledonian Cowboy.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Violet Manners (@mannersviolet) While at the time Violet's mother, Emma, Duchess of Rutland, 61, said she was 'over the moon' at the news, David, the 66-year-old Duke of Rutland, told diarist Richard Eden only that he had 'met him [Bill] a couple of times.' The three Manners sisters have been regulars on the London scene. Prior to dating Bill, Lord Garnock; former Dolce & Gabbana model Lady Violet was in a relationship with Old Etonian banker Ted Morrison, which reportedly ended in 2022 – the same year her sister Alice, 30, split from Otis Ferry, son of rock star Bryan Ferry. Eliza, 27, the youngest Manners daughter, has been linked to Max Odey, son of millionaire hedge fund boss Crispin Odey. Despite being heralded by Tatler as one of the most eligible bachelors in the world, 24-year-old Charles – who will eventually inherit the Belvoir estate by virtue of male primogeniture, even though all his sisters are older – and his brother Hugo, 21, are less often in the public eye. The Duchess of Rutland has certainly been on board with Violet's wedding preparations, using social media to document accompanying her eldest on a mother-daughter pre-wedding trip to the island of Formentera at the start of the month and running a daily countdown to the estate's forthcoming celebrations on her Instagram account, including a spot of mother-of-the-bride dress shopping in the capital. Entrepreneurial Lady Violet recently launched HeritageXplore, a digital platform facilitating access to Britain's independently run stately homes and historic houses. For his part, Lord Garnock graduated from the University of Alabama in 2014 and left behind a job in the American drinks industry to return to his family seat, the Jacobean Lahill House in Fife, founding the luxury non-alcoholic botanical spirit brand Feragaia – stocked in Fenwicks, Harrods and elsewhere. One can expect drinks of all denominations to be flowing freely at Belvoir into the early hours of tomorrow morning, as both the family – and the venue – possess immaculate party-throwing pedigree. The nightclub known as 'Dadabells,' found in the dining room, has hosted several celebrations with disco balls and DJ booths, including the 2022 'three-day bacchanal' wedding of Vogue beauty editor Tish Weinstock to Tom Guinness, with guests including Kate and Lila Moss, Sabine and Ivy Getty and the Manners sisters themselves. 'Parties at Belvoir are legendary,' confirms Hargreaves. 'There are tales of disco balls in the Old Kitchen, saxophonists and DJ sets rolling on until 8am. And, having won the 'best silverware' category in Tatler 's Country House Awards, the wedding breakfast will surely sparkle.' The sisters especially love leaning into a theme. 'Lady Violet's Wild West–themed hen do was a case in point, inspired by her fiancé's nickname 'Caledonian Cowboy',' says Hargreaves. ''Vi's Last Rodeo,' as it was called, was hosted at Moscar Lodge in Sheffield (another of the Duke and Duchess of Rutland's properties) and featured chandeliers, tartan gowns, cowboy hats, spa treatments […] and a health workshop with crystals. This is how the modern gentry roll.' So far, so modern – although Violet is expected to take her husband's surname, having previously told The Telegraph of her 'enormous respect for tradition' and her loathing of the word 'woke,' adding, 'For me, the old tradition of taking your husband's surname still rings true.' 'Everyone grows up with this image […]' Lady Violet told Town & Country magazine earlier this year, when asked whether her life in a castle was like a fairytale. 'We all put on the princess dresses when we're younger, we all love the Disney movies, and we were no different. [But growing up at Belvoir] was actually quite scary.' It seems that now, though, Lady Violet has found her prince.

Influencer Ashy Bines performs very saucy act for date night with husband Steven Evans - and slams 'Karens' who say it's 'too much'
Ashy Bines stripped down to some very saucy lingerie for a date night with her husband Steven Evans this week. The fitness influencer, 35, put on a raunchy show for her hubby in videos shared to Instagram on Saturday, as she gave him a 'sexy' lap dance. However, it would seem some critics slammed the online personality in her private messages, as moments later she hit back at 'Karens' saying the post was 'too much'. The debacle began with Ashy posting a photo to her Stories which showed Steven beaming as she sat in his lap while wearing black lingerie and heels. 'Had the best date night!' Ashy began in the caption. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'A couples dance (lap dance lesson) at @hbmthestudio! @myshajacksonn made us feel so comfortable, sexy and empowered!' she added. Ashy then shared a video of herself performing a sensual lap dance for her husband in a red-lit room, gyrating in front of him on the ground as she flashed her derriere. However, Ashy's shining moment soon came to a halt as just moments later she posted a message to her Stories slamming her critics. 'Judgy Karen's just unfollow if this is "too much for you",' she said. 'I also get it. I use to feel uncomfortable watching this type of content too. 'But I'm so grateful for the women who posted and inspired me to give it a go, have more fun, connect with my body more and after becoming a mum, realise I can still feel sexy, be sexy and after 17 years with Steve, can proudly say we are more connected and alive than ever. 'Feeling like you're disconnected from your body? Or wanting more exciting date night? Are wanting to bring more play and pleasure into your life? 'Try something new, book the class, have fun, try new things! Tonight was so fun!' However, it would seem some critics slammed the online personality in her private messages, as moments later she hit back at 'Karens' saying the post was 'too much' It's not the first time Ashy has had to hit back at critics in recent months. In May, the influencer was enjoying a Bali getaway with her She Rises podcast co-host Tijana Bundalo when haters slammed her for leaving her husband and two children behind in Australia. Ashy took to Instagram at the time to inform her followers she wasn't interested in living by anyone else's 'rulebook'. 'People will tell you how to live, what's wrong with you and your life, and project their own 'rules' and beliefs onto you,' she began the long-winded post. 'If you live by their rulebook, you'll never feel truly happy or free to just be YOU.' Ashy then called out some of the criticisms she's received since touching down in Bali and documenting her trip on social media. 'Some comments while I'm in Bali include: 'You should be with your family"; 'Good mums don't leave their kids behind on a holiday"; 'Such a selfish mum and partner'; 'Poor Steve having the kids to himself while you relax in Bali"; 'Mums shouldn't wear that; how embarrassing",' she added. The mum-of-two then refuted the claim her trip was unfair on husband Steve and their children Taj and Tala. 'Steve is incredibly supportive and a very capable, hands-on father. I refuse to live my life or neglect my own needs because of what others think,' she said. 'I won't put myself last or stop spending time with my friends, going on holiday, or pursuing my passions just because people label me as selfish or a bad mum.' Rounding out the post, Ashy said being a mother should not preclude her from doing 'silly TikToks', being sexual, expressing herself and travelling.

'Nude artist' Dina Broadhurst puts on risque display in tiny skirt - after reconnecting with ex-boyfriend Tony Benjamin in Bondi
Dina Broadhurst set hearts racing on Saturday when she shared a risque selfie while wearing a tiny grey skirt. The 'nude artist', 48, shared the racy picture to Instagram as she flashed an eye-popping amount of leg while taking a mirror selfie. The glamorous socialite paired the sizzling frock with a sheer white long-sleeved shirt, protecting her modesty with a lacy bralette beneath it. Popping her hip out to the side, Dina struck a pouty pose for the image. It comes after she was spotted reconnecting with her ex-boyfriend Tony Benjamin during a low-key meet-up in Bondi on Thursday. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The pair, who made headlines in 2023 when their steamy romance came to light, appeared relaxed and at ease as they enjoyed coffee and conversation in the sun. They then hit Body by Berner for a Pilates session. At one point, the former couple were seen sharing a hearty laugh, with Dina beaming as she leaned across the table. Later, they left the café together and appeared deep in conversation. Their public reunion is sure to raise eyebrows among fans who remember their tumultuous history. Dina and Tony were first linked in early 2023, with the pair quickly becoming fixtures on Sydney's social scene. However, their whirlwind romance took a dramatic turn just months later when it was revealed Tony had split from his wife Shannon Benjamin, following his relationship with the Bondi-based artist. The saga sparked a wave of headlines, with sources close to the couple claiming the relationship had 'fizzled out' just as quickly as it began. In August last year, Dina fuelled speculation of a new romance when she posted a steamy Instagram photo of herself sunbaking in a bikini while a mystery man – believed by some to be Tony – caressed her back. However, she kept mum about her relationship status, never confirming whether she had rekindled things with her former flame. The high-society beauty has been romantically linked to some of Sydney's richest and most powerful men, but Dina doesn't like to be tied down these days. Most recently, she was once again spotted cosying up to John Winning Jr., known to his friends as Herman. In a huge love life twist, the pair were recently spotted on a double date in Coogee with cricketer Michael Clarke and his girlfriend Arabella Sherborne, the exclusive details of which were revealed by Mail+. Their shock outing came after Dina was also romantically tied to her boy toy Kengi - a former Love Island star who is, at 23, less than half her age. The pair secretly linked up in Paris, with Dina doing her best to keep him hidden from the public eye. But after Daily Mail Australia revealed their secret tryst, she began sharing steamy snaps online from their five-star Parisian love nest. However, upon her return to Australia, Dina sought comfort in the arms of ex-boyfriend John Jr., sparking speculation about whether they were back together. Her fling with Kengi followed her blink-and-you'll-miss-it trip to Chile for some fun with John Jr., who seems to be her go-to on-again-off-again boyfriend. She and John Jr. originally began dating in March last year, but they broke up in early December on the morning of the wedding of Bernadette Fahey and Jordan Sukkar. The pair were both expected to attend the couple's Scots College wedding, but when Dina rocked up solo, the high-profile guests knew something was amiss. Sources revealed at the time Dina came to the realisation their lifestyles were not compatible after eight months together. John Jr. is the son of appliances mogul John Winning Sr. and his family is worth an estimated $700million.
