Chelsea Becirevic, the AFL’s ‘hottest footy WAG’, has been spotted stepping out with her boyfriend Ivan Soldo on the Gold Coast after leaving Adelaide in highly controversial circumstances.
Becirevic, 23, gave up her glamorous Melbourne lifestyle to follow her boyfriend Soldo to the City of Churches last November when he was traded from Richmond to Port Adelaide.
However, she proved that the novelty of living in ‘Radelaide’ had well and truly worn off by announcing on Instagram six months later that she was moving to Dubai to start a new life with an airline.
In September, the marketer and influencer, who has more than 65,000 followers on Instagram, announced on social media that she had moved back to Australia and was “very happy to be back home.”
It comes as Soldo has also requested a trade back to Melbourne after playing for Power for just a year. St Kilda are also reportedly interested in acquiring the ruckman, who played in just eight games for Port in the 2024 season.
The couple have been enjoying the start of the off-season, spending time in a luxury apartment on the Gold Coast as they enjoyed walks along the beach.
On Monday morning, the couple was photographed enjoying the sun with their dog in a nearby park.
The glamorous couple cut casual figures in workout sweats as Chelsea sipped an iced coffee.

Becirevic took to Instagram this weekend to post several videos and photos of the beautiful apartment and a few clips of her boyfriend Soldo on a sunset dog walk along the beach.
The 23-year-old had previously told her Instagram followers she was looking forward to spending time with her family on the Gold Coast this summer.
She showed off the luxurious interior of the house, which also features a large balcony overlooking the beach.
She captioned the video “Finally back home” with a “tearful face” emoji and a “white heart” emoji.
Last week, Becirevic revealed to her Instagram followers that she had ‘missed Australia’ after moving to Dubai to work for Emirates and was ‘happy to be home’.

“I returned to Aus a few weeks ago,” she wrote on Instagram.
‘I honestly hated the long distances, it was so hard, and I missed Australia so much.
‘I made some great friends in Dubai and I’m so glad I did, even for the short time I was there. I miss you, girls.
‘Very happy to be home again.’
She had also stated that although she enjoyed working for the airline, she was “super homesick.”
“It’s a great way to meet so many different people and have a bit of fun,” she wrote.
‘If you want to travel, that’s a great way. But it’s certainly made much more glamorous online.
“I was super homesick and found the job super isolating.”
Becirevic also set the tone for her departure from Adelaide, writing: “I’m honestly fed up with this ridiculous story that keeps circulating.
‘I have been silent for far too long, but it is time to set the record straight.
‘Somehow I have become the center of attention for a profession that has nothing to do with me.

‘Not that it’s anyone’s business, but I returned from Dubai to support my friend and somehow I find myself being dragged by the media.
‘It’s disappointing to see the same old story where the girl is blamed for everything.
“Let’s be clear: I have never spoken badly about Adelaide either.”
A follower had asked her if she would be interested in moving back to Melbourne, but added that she would be spending the off-season at home with her family on the Gold Coast.
‘I don’t know where I’ll be yet… I’m just going with the flow at the moment.
“I’m going to spend the offseason at home with our family on the leaderboard, I’m so excited to see everyone.”
