Brittany Hockley shares major relationship news with football star husband: ‘Ben is beside himself’

Brittany Hockley announced she’s relocating to Italy to live with her husband, Benjamin Siegrist, who is a professional soccer player from Switzerland.

I was so thrilled to hear that she and her husband are finally moving in together! She shared on her podcast, Life Uncut, that after trying a long-distance relationship, they realized they really needed to be in the same place to spend more quality time together. It’s wonderful news, and I’m so happy for them both!

I’m officially moving to Italy! Ben is incredibly excited and can barely contain himself. Surprisingly, I’m actually looking forward to the practical, everyday aspects of the move,” Brittany said.

It’s the little things, like watching TV or taking a walk together, that we miss most – those simple, everyday moments.

She also mentioned that being away from her husband, Ben, for so long had been especially hard, as they’d only gotten married in Bali back in June.

She explained that being newly married made them especially eager to be together, and this separation felt particularly difficult because it was the longest they’d ever spent apart.

She said she’d only seen her husband for about ten days since their wedding in June, and now it’s Christmas. After six months of marriage, she feels like the situation isn’t sustainable.

She told her fans not to worry, explaining she’ll keep co-hosting her popular podcast from a distance and will travel back to Australia often to see her friends and family.

She confirmed that her departure won’t affect the project, stating she won’t be gone permanently and will return to Australia often for work.

I’m focusing on prioritizing my happiness in 2026, and figuring out what that means for me. I’ll finally have the chance to spend a lot more time with the person I love while also pursuing my goals!

In September, Brittany shared a look at her and her husband’s unusual home life with her followers.

She shared details about her long-distance relationship on Instagram, explaining that she hasn’t seen her husband since their honeymoon.

She shared that it had been three months since they’d last been together, and that being reunited always felt amazing, just like their very first day as a married couple.

The famous radio personality shared that she and her husband have maintained separate homes throughout their entire relationship.

Brittany advises anyone in a long-distance relationship to plan ahead, communicate well, and trust each other.

‘For us we always try to make it every eight weeks or so, but with work it sometimes slips out to longer, like this time,’ she said. 

The Australian actress also shared that she and Ben enjoy watching the same TV shows even when they’re not together, and they even cook together over FaceTime to stay connected.

Brittany explained that while long-distance relationships aren’t easy, they can be incredibly rewarding with the right person. She encourages people not to dismiss a potential partner just because of the distance, suggesting there are far more serious things to worry about.

She ended her post by writing that this relationship is the most effortless she’s ever experienced, and for now, they’re simply enjoying it as much as possible.

The host of the Life Uncut podcast, who is also an athlete from Switzerland, got married in a beautiful cliffside ceremony in June. The wedding took place overlooking the Bukit Peninsula.

She announced Brittany’s engagement to Ben last year.

The duo met in November 2022 on the celebrity dating app Raya.
