- Chelsea Becirevic and Ivan Soldo have moved in together
- The 23-year-old influencer temporarily left Adelaide to start a new life
- She returned in September after a new job abroad didn’t work out
Headline-making footy WAG Chelsea Becirevic and her Port Power star boyfriend Ivan Soldo are celebrating their move into a house together in Adelaide.
Becirevic first attracted national attention in May this year when she left the country for a new life in Dubai after saying life in Adelaide was a “struggle” and “just not permanent for me”.
Her comments caused a frenzy in the City of Churches as locals responded to her, suggesting their city was “too boring.”
Becirevic worked as a flight attendant in the Middle Eastern city for several months before returning home in September. She explained that she ‘hated’ the long distance and missed her ruckman boyfriend.
Soldo requested a trade back to Melbourne after just a year in Adelaide, with some footy fans suspecting Becirevic was lobbying behind the scenes for the couple to return to the Victorian capital.
In November, the couple revealed they won’t be leaving Adelaide anytime soon, later admitting they had found a new property to live in.

Last week the loved-up couple moved into their first home together, with Becirevic posting a video clip on social media to mark the occasion.
“First home together feels,” she captioned the clip of Soldo carrying the influencer through the front door.
The clip also showed the happy couple posing together in the backyard of the home.
While her husband will play for Port again in 2025, Becirevic exclusively told Ny Breaking Australia in November about what lies ahead for her career – and how she feels about spending more time in Adelaide.
“Right now I’m just staying close to my family, trying to get settled in Adelaide, sorting out the house now and making plans for the future,” she said.
“People misinterpreted what I said. I have never discriminated against Adelaide. I love Adelaide, I’ve lived there for the past year.
‘My favorite thing is the beaches; they have beautiful beaches.’
When asked whether marriage and children are planned, Becirevic eagerly replied: “Hopefully!” before Soldo added: “Commitment first. I have to ask the question first, you have to do it first.

“We make a promise, then the engagement, everything.”
Soldo also revealed that the strength of their romance has been a rock for the couple as they have often made headlines in controversial ways.
“It’s really a duck’s nest,” he said of the criticism their relationship has faced.
“You have to have a very thick skin in this world, but we have each other and that’s all that matters.”
As they move into their first home together, the couple have been sharing a luxury apartment on the Gold Coast.
In October, the couple was photographed spending some time on the beach at the start of the off-season.
