AFL WAG Lexi Mary has opened up about how she first met Western Bulldogs player Rory Lobb.
Lexi filmed a candid TikTok video while she got ready to go out, telling her 14,000 followers that Rory ‘gave her nothing’ on their first date.
The advertising executive disclosed that she initially tried to keep her relationship a secret due to an unexpected conflict of interest: her stepfather was the CEO of the Fremantle Dockers.
At the time, Lexi had just ended a four-year relationship when she received a direct message from Rory, 31.
Three days after the breakup, she decided she had been ‘too sad for too long’ and resolved to reply to the Bulldogs ruckman.
Over the footage of her putting on makeup, Lexi shared a screenshot of the pair’s first ever message exchange, where she finally responded to her future fiancé’s DM.
Rory wrote on April 12, 2019, ‘How’s it standing?’ and Lexi responded the following day with, ‘Magic.’
The couple then went on a date, and though Lexi admitted that Rory was ‘giving me nothing’ in terms of conversation, their bond grew and five years later, they were engaged.

The AFL player got down on one knee and popped the big question to social media star Lexi during a holiday to the Maldives late last year.

Lexi revealed they want to exchange vows in an intimate ceremony just surrounded by their close family and friends.
After saying ‘I do’, the couple then plan to jet off for a sun-soaked holiday in the Maldives – where they got engaged – with their loved ones.
‘We’ll have a small wedding, we never want it to feel like a chore so it’ll be nice and intimate,’ Mary told the Herald Sun.
‘And then we’ll head to the Maldives later with family and friends,’ she added.
