In November, the couple confirmed they had sold their $1.42 million Bondi apartment and were expanding into their ‘dream’ home on the northern beaches.
They first purchased their two-bedroom, one-bathroom condo shortly after finding love together on The Bachelor in 2021.
The property was originally scheduled to be auctioned on November 19 a price guide of $1.4 million to $1.5 million, but received an offer before the scheduled day.
The couple shared photos of themselves standing next to a ‘sold’ sign and confirmed in an Instagram post: ‘The end of a chapter and the beginning of an even bigger one.
‘Selling our beloved small apartment and buying a house wasn’t necessarily on our bingo card when we were eight months pregnant, but let’s just say it’s not a challenge for a woman in the nesting stage.
‘We bought our unit together after a meeting about Bach, after having only a few television dates and a handful of moments without a film crew.
“We inspected houses together via FaceTime while we were still living in secret before the show even aired… so maybe the saying ‘when you know, you know’ is true.
‘We can’t wait to share this next chapter of our lives with you as a family of three as we move into our first dream home on the Northern Beaches where we both grew up. Let the DIY begin.”

Jimmy and Holly fell in love during the 2021 season of The Bachelor Australia and tied the knot in August 2023.
During an Instagram Q&A, a fan asked Holly: ‘How was your first trimester? I didn’t expect this.’
In response, Holly admitted that she had a ‘tough’ pregnancy during the first few weeks of pregnancy and suffered from low mood and fear of miscarriage.
“To be honest, really fucking rough. Nausea, morning sickness (all day long) and constant tiredness did me good, but what was much worse for me personally was the anxiety and very low mood… the constant fear of miscarriage and isolation,” she admitted.
‘Do what I didn’t do and lean on the people around you who you can trust.’
“I shut my husband out and tried to deal with all the changes myself, which left me a very unhappy person… and him feeling completely helpless,” Holly continued.
‘I can confirm for many that it’s true what they say about the second trimester, the shi**y symptoms are manageable and I feel like my old happy self again… until the little one comes along and turns me into a sleep deprived person sample.’
