If four weeks in hotel quarantine isn’t enough to prove Bachelor couple Locky Gilbert and Irena Srbinovska are an item, nothing will.

After declaring their love for each other on last night’s episode of the reality dating show, The Daily Telegraph can reveal Sbrinovska has packed up her Melbourne home and will start afresh with Gilbert in Perth.

“I have left my job, I have left my family and friends and the only city that I have lived in,” Srbinovska told The Daily Telegraph.

“I have found a job in Perth and can’t wait to start living the rest of my life with Locky.”

With the final episode shot several weeks ago, recent reports have claimed Gilbert and Srbinovska have already broken up.

Not so, they say.

Srbinovska, a nurse, wrapped two weeks quarantine in a Sydney hotel this week to reunite with Gilbert.

The couple will enjoy a few weeks travelling around NSW before having to quarantine together for a fortnight in Perth.

Gilbert chose series favourite Srbinovska over 25-year-old digital marketing creative Bella Varelis in an explosive season finale episode.

Neither remain in contact with Varelis, who was in the earlier stages of the competition best friends on the show with Srbinovska.

“I haven’t spoken to Bella since we wrapped filming,” Srbinovska, also 31, said.

“Unfortunately we were amazing friends and we had a falling out. I wish her nothing but the best and I hope that she does find someone after this.”

To that, Gilbert, also 31, added: “It was quite hard to watch. I haven’t spoken to her (since filming).”

The happy couple indicated marriage and kids are on the cards, perhaps sooner rather than later.

“I just want to spend the rest of my life with him,” she said.

Gilbert continued: “It (marriage) is definitely going to happen, when and where, we are not too sure. It could be coming up soon, it could be far away, we will have to wait and see.”
