Australian influencer Ellidy Pullin reveals plans to try for another baby before her wedding

Ellidy Pullin says she hopes to welcome another baby with her fiancé, Brock Wadsworth, before the couple’s planned wedding next year.

The 34-year-old influencer is already mother to Minnie, whom she conceived through posthumous IVF using sperm from her late partner, snowboarding champion Alex ‘Chumpy’ Pullin. She announced her engagement to Brock last month.

Pullin revealed that she would ideally be pregnant ‘right now’ and give birth before walking down the aisle. 

‘I think baby then wedding. I would just love to be pregnant right now, and then have a wedding at the end of next year,’ she told Emilee Hembrow on her podcast Let’s Be Real.

‘That’s pretty hectic. But then I’ll have those milk boobs still. I’m dying for some t***.’ 

She said she had ‘loved being pregnant’ with Minnie, joking that she had felt ‘like a million bucks’ despite the difficult symptoms.

‘Pretty good. I mean, I vomited every single day of the whole thing,’ Pullin said with a laugh.

‘Honestly, all in all, it was pretty good. I just lived on Vegemite, toast and cheese. I vomited every day until the end. 

‘But as soon as you get that little spew up, I’d feel like a million bucks. I loved being pregnant.’ 

Pullin’s former partner, Chumpy, was a celebrated snowboarding champion who drowned on Queensland’s Gold Coast at the age of 32. 

The couple were in a long-term relationship when he died in a tragic spearfishing accident at Palm Beach on July 8, 2020. 

Chumpy experienced a shallow-water blackout and was found unresponsive on the ocean floor by another diver.

Following his death, Pullin underwent posthumous sperm retrieval. She later gave birth to their daughter, Minnie, in October 2021.

Although she and Chumpy never married, she changed her surname from Vlug to Pullin by deed poll.

Pullin is now engaged to Brock, who ended up proposing during a flight after Minnie accidentally revealed the surprise.

The influencer recently posted an Instagram video capturing the moment she accepted a ring from Brock as they travelled to Europe.

‘You didn’t keep the secret,’ Brock could be heard telling four-year-old Minnie, while Ellidy wore a skincare mask in her first-class seat.

‘Minnie just came up to me on the plane and said, “Can you marry Broccoli?” and he goes, “F***, you blew it Minnie,”‘ Ellidy recalled.

‘I’m so lost for words. If that’s not the most “me, you and Minnie” proposal ever.’

Ellidy then asked Brock: ‘You’re so cute. You were gonna do it overseas, and Minnie just blew it?’

Brock explained that he had plans to pop the question aboard a boat during the couple’s overseas holiday.

‘Me and mummy and you are all engaged!’ Brock told Minnie after getting his accidental ‘Yes’.

Ellidy added in her caption: ‘And that was how the cookie accidentally crumbled. Best surprise ever, just us, up in the sky, no frills and no WiFi.

‘I am still on a big fat high from that moment. I LOVE YOU @brockwad FOREVER!’

The pair announced their engagement last month, after Brock handed over a diamond ring worth up to $350,000.

Alder Fine Jewellery, the company that made the engagement ring, confirmed to the Daily Mail that the diamond is natural.

The jewellers revealed the diamond is a four-carat ‘old mine cushion cut natural diamond ring’, adding that it has the ‘spread of a five-carat diamond’.

The elongated, cushion-cut diamond in a yellow-gold bezel setting is very similar to the bling gifted to pop star Taylor Swift by her now-husband, Travis Kelce, for their 2025 engagement.

It features what appears to be a high-quality natural diamond, putting the ring at a value of $250,000 to $350,000.

Ellidy’s engagement marks a major new chapter six years after the death of Olympic snowboarder Chumpy.

Taking to Instagram to share the news, Ellidy revealed Brock had popped the question during a trip to Europe, with the couple celebrating their engagement in a series of romantic photographs.

‘HE WANTS TO BE STUCK WITH ME FOREVER,’ she captioned the post alongside several crying and ring emojis.

Brock is a Gold Coast-based contractor and the managing director of Wadsworth Contracting.
