Brittany Hockley dramatically collapses at Sydney gym following marriage to Benjamin Siegrist: 'We have a woman down'
Newlywed Brittany Hockley gave fans a fright this week after collapsing at a gym in Sydney, after an intense workout session with her husband Benjamin Siegrist. The 37-year-old former Bachelor star was filmed lying slumped over a table at VRTUS gym in Bondi, appearing completely spent. Dressed in a white jumper and black exercise pants, Brittany appeared exhausted as she looked up at the camera and let out a cry of anguish: 'Can't'. She then slowly zipped her white jumper over her face in apparent defeat. The alarming clip was shared by her Swiss footballer husband, who cheekily captioned it: 'We have a woman down'.

'Still in vacay mode, to be honest,' Brittany added. He added two laughing emojis, confirming the moment was all in jest. It comes after Brittany was left broken-hearted after she shelled out $1,000 for a lavish wedding cake - only to be delivered a culinary disaster. The podcaster married Swiss footballer Ben Siegrist in a clifftop ceremony in Bali earlier this month. While Brittany's nuptials went off without a hitch, the genetically blessed couple were left red-faced at the reception when they came face to face with their 'Temu' sponge that looked like a 'four-stacked pizza'. Last week, Brittany shared an image of the ornate sponge she ordered, complete with piped dollops of rich white cream and a vibrant topping of fresh berries, and an image of what was delivered to illustrate her heartache. Instead of the berry-laden showstopper she hoped for, the final product resembled 'four burned pizzas slapped together' - dull, brown, and uninspired. The disappointing dessert left Brittany and her guests in shock. The couple's wedding took place last week at Pandawa Cliff Estate, which promises a 'dramatic and romantic clifftop setting overlooking the Indian Ocean' and stunning views of Bali's Bukit Peninsula. Brittany was ever the blushing bride on her big day, walking down the aisle in a strapless dress by Steven Khalil which featured a lace corset with dramatic long train. Brittany and Ben gave followers a glimpse into the nuptials, sharing a duo of loved-up snaps from the big day to Instagram. One showed Ben romantically embracing his new bride as he leaned in for a newlywed kiss. 'From the very first day, it was you,' Brittany captioned the images. 'Across any ocean, it is you. For the rest of our lives, it will always be you. Mr and Mrs Siegrist 4.6.2025,' she added, augmenting the sentiment with love heart emojis.

When one isn't enough! Brittany Hockley shows off her stack of wedding rings as she returns to Australia with new husband Benjamin Siegrist after Bali nuptials
Brittany Hockley and her newly minted husband Benjamin Siegrist have returned to Sydney after tying in knot in Bali. While her wedding may be over, Brittany won't forget in a hurry, with the former Bachelor star's finger festooned with an array of rings. The brunette was spotted showing off her bling as the couple strolled hand-in-hand through the streets of Bondi on Tuesday. She wore the stunning diamond sparkler Benjamin, 33, got down on bended knee with when he popped the question in June last year. She also sported two wedding rings created for her big day - a plain 18k gold band and another gold band encrusted with brilliant white diamonds.

Meanwhile Benjamin, also went for the 'bling' approach for his wedding band, with the goalkeeper now wearing a 14k yellow gold band with infinity pavé diamonds. All three wedding rings were created by Brittany's best friend and Life Uncut podcast co-host Laura Byrne's jewellery line, ToniMay. Brittany cut a casual figure in a puffy sleeveless jacket that she wore over a white long-sleeve zip-up top. She matched this with a pair of form-fitting navy blue leggings which she had tucked into a pair of white socks. Accessorising with a pair of almond-shaped sunglasses, Brittany finished her ensemble with a pair of white sneakers. Husband Benjamin cut an equally casual figure, putting on a leggy display in a pair of navy blue shorts. He also wore a Lorna Jane zip-up jacket that featured a trio of blue strips running along the shoulders and sleeves. He finished his look with a navy blue Atlanta braves baseball cap. Benjamin was also in charge of Brittany's faithful pooch Delilah for the outing. After picking up some bakery items, the couple were seen happily chatting as they enjoyed the start of their new life together. Brittany and Ben wed in a romantic ceremony in Bali on Wednesday last week. The wedding took place at Pandawa Cliff Estate, which promises a 'dramatic and romantic clifftop setting overlooking the Indian Ocean' and stunning views of Bali's Bukit Peninsula. Brittany was ever the blushing bride on her big day, walking down the aisle in a strapless dress by Steven Khalil which featured a lace corset with dramatic long train. The couple gave followers a glimpse into the nuptials, sharing a duo of loved-up snaps from the big day to Instagram. One showed Ben romantically embracing his new bride as he leaned in for a newlywed kiss. The second showed the happy couple beaming as they held hands and hugged each other close. 'From the very first day, it was you,' Brittany captioned the images. 'Across any ocean, it is you. For the rest of our lives, it will always be you. Mr and Mrs Siegrist 4.6.2025,' she added, augmenting the sentiment with love heart emojis. Brittany and her beau appeared on her podcast Life Uncut in June last year to discuss details about her stunning giant diamond ring. Ben revealed he had the ring sourced and made in Dubai and it features a hidden halo under the diamond in a pavé setting. He also explained the diamond is lab-grown, which is more cost-effective and ethically sourced compared to natural diamonds. 'Whenever Ben and I had spoken about [engagement], I had said the two things I want: I want yellow gold. And the other thing, I always wanted a lab-grown diamond,' Brittany said. Ben didn't really know about it then, but he was like, "Don't you want a real diamond?" And I said, "It's identical. It's exactly the same, except ethically-sourced".' The cost of a lab grown diamond is around 40 to 50 per cent less than an earth-mined diamond, though it is still a real diamond.

Former Dundee United ace makes Serie A debut – and helps blow title race wide open
Former Dundee United favourite Benjamin Siegrist made his long-awaited Serie A debut on Sunday evening – and helped to blow the title race wide open. Siegrist, 33, joined Genoa from Rapid Bucharest in January but has served as understudy to Nicola Leali between the sticks. However, boss Patrick Vieira gave Siegrist the nod against table-topping Napoli and he turned in a solid showing during a breathless 2-2 draw at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. Scotland international Scott McTominay teed up both of Napoli's goals – scored by Romelu Lukaku and Giacomo Raspadori – but Genoa hit back twice through an Alex Meret own goal and Johan Vasquez. The result means Champions League finalists Inter Milan are just ONE point behind the Neapolitans going into the last two games of the season. Siegrist made 145 appearances for the Tangerines following his arrival in the summer of 2018, playing in key part in the club returning to the Premiership and consolidating in the top-flight. That earned him a switch to Celtic in 2022, but he never came close to cementing a starting berth and played just two games in two years – League Cup wins over Motherwell and Ross County. The ex-Aston Villa kid joined Rapid Bucharest, managed at the time by current Dunfermline boss Neil Lennon, last summer but lasted just six months before making the switch to Italy.
