Olivia and Justin were last photographed together in August after sharing holiday snaps from New York, and before that at a friend’s wedding in Bali.

The couple married in a beautiful ceremony in February after they were forced to delay the wedding to a third time due to the pandemic.

Olivia was radiant in a white, long-sleeved wedding gown by Marquise Bridal as the couple wed at the Terindah Estate on Victoria’s Bellarine Peninsula.

The original date in October held special meaning for the model, as it was the same day her grandparents wed in 1959.

Olivia and Justin met at the start of 2018 before stepping out together at the Australian Grand Prix and have been inseparable since.

The pair got engaged in 2019 while on an overseas holiday.

The Adelaide raised beauty has been open about her battles with her body and weight and released her book earlier this year, titled Find Your Light.

She was crowned Miss Universe Australia in 2017 and quit her job as a speech pathologist to devote more time to being an influencer, model and mental health advocate.
