“Married and a house this past month, what a time! (We actually bought this on our wedding night… must have been feeling the good vibes and/or had a few too many cocktails) This is just the start,” she added.

The newlyweds have been together for three years and have been doing long distance due to their respective work commitments, with Siegrist residing in Europe while Brittany lives in Australia.

In a new video, as she showed off her make-up routine while on her honeymoon, Brittany explained their unique living arrangements.

”Ben and I have been together nearly three years and we have never lived together,” she said as she answered a fan question about their relationship.

“Everyone is asking, ‘Are you going to live together now that we’re married?’ The answer is no,” she said.

Hockley said their decision to remain apart was “not by choice”.

“It’s not by choice as when we met, we both had signed different contracts, long-term contracts for our jobs… not to say we won’t live together one day.”

She said it might be unconventional, but it works for them.

“But just because it doesn’t look how certain people want it to look or how society wants it to look, but it looks pretty good to us.”
