Brittany Hockley has revealed that the first time she told her fiancé Benjamin Siegrist she loved him was an ‘accident’.
The Bachelor star, 37, took to Instagram on Monday to share a throwback video of the moment.
The clip showed her talking to Benjamin on the phone live on KIIS FM’s The Pick Up last year.
Brittany wrapped up the segment quickly and just before hanging up, quickly said ‘I love you, bye.’
Moments later, the Life Uncut podcast co-host is seen looking stunned that she said the words.
‘I think I just said “I love you, bye”,’ to which co-host Mitch Churi said, ‘That was fine, it was cute.’

However, the radio star did not agree, replying, ‘no it’s not.’
It comes just days after Brittany revealed her secret to stress-free wedding planning and how she has managed to avoid fighting with fiancé Benjamin over it.
The I’m A Celebrity star is currently in the midst of planning her Bali destination wedding to Swiss footballer Benjamin after they got engaged in June of this year.

Speaking exclusively to Daily Mail Australia, Brittany confessed it has not been any easy task while coordinating with her family in Australia and his in Switzerland on two different time zones.
However, the podcaster said her secret to keeping everything smooth-sailing has been hiring a whiz wedding planner to take on the brunt of the organising on her behalf.
‘Wedding planning is going well, purely because I have a wedding planner otherwise it would be going down the gurgler,’ she shared at Marie Claire’s Women of the Year Awards on Wednesday.

‘It’s really hard though because we’re working on so many different time zones – Ben lives over in Europe and I’m obviously here, but it’s going.’
She also credited goalkeeper Benjamin’s laidback attitude for preventing any rows over wedding planning, saying he is letting her take charge on their special day.
‘To be honest, Ben is the easiest person that I’ve ever met, he’s pretty much said ”you tell me what I need to do, if I need to do anything, at the end of the day, I want you to be happy”,’ she gushed.
‘He’s just been brilliant and I just think he knows me well enough that he doesn’t want to tread on my toes.
‘It’s my day in his eyes, and he’s like ”as long as I get to marry you at the end, that’s all I want”.’
Brittany and Benjamin have already set a date for their wedding, but are keeping it a closely-guarded secret, only hinting that it will be at some point next year.
The couple met in November 2022 on the celebrity dating app Raya when Benjamin’s team, the Glasgow-based Celtic FC, were playing in Australia against Sydney FC.
They went Instagram official in January 2023 and have since been splitting their time between Australia and Scotland, where Benjamin currently lives.
Last July, Benjamin revealed his plans to move to Australia to be with Brittany as they are currently making their relationship work long-distance.
