Confidential hears the couple had originally planned to wed in Bodrum, Turkey, but had to put those plans on ice due to the pandemic.

They instead were married in a lavish celebrity-filled party at Swifts mansion in Darling Point on March 25 last year.

“Obviously Covid had other plans so it was a Sydney wedding,” a friend noted to Confidential. “They really wanted to celebrate with an overseas holiday and wanted their friends involved too.”

Around 40 are expected in the group to fly out to Turkey, where they will stay at Macakizi Hotel on the Aegean Sea.

It is a favoured holiday destination for the likes of Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell.
