Nadia Bartel has fuelled rumours she is planning to secretly wed boyfriend Peter Dugmore after being spotted leaving an upmarket bridal store.
The glamorous Australian influencer and owner of popular fashion label Henne was seen leaving the high-end boutique Alin Le’Kal on Saturday.
The designer store, located in leafy Toorak in Melbourne’s south-east, is known for its intricate, custom-made bridal gowns and evening wear.
The mother-of-two, 40, appeared relaxed as she held a giant Alin Le’Kal garment bag in one hand and a pair of silver high heels in the other.
She was dressed casually in a pair of black exercise pants and a denim jacket for the outing, but had her hair neatly styled in effortless waves.
The social media star was seen weaving her way through the busy high street before she safely deposited the garment bag in the boot of her car.
Daily Mail has reached out to Nadia Bartel for comment.
Speculation over whether Nadia could be planning to secretly wed comes after she previously told Daily Mail she ‘wants to marry’ Peter.

Nadia was seen leaving high-end bridal boutique Alin Le’Kal, which is known for its intricate, custom-made bridal gowns and evening wear.
At the time, she said marriage was currently not on the cards for the couple.
‘You know when you’ve done that then you’re like I don’t know if I’d do that again. But when you meet someone that you feel like you want to marry it’s a good feeling. We are so happy. He’s a good boy,’ she said.
The former WAG also said Peter was ‘The One’.
‘My love life is going well. It’s good. I’m happy,’ she told this publication.
‘I think he’s The One. I do think he is and I think that he’s got so many amazing attributes. He’s just such a good person. I think the way he makes me feel…’
The pair went on a date after Peter slid into the fashionista’s Instagram DMs.
‘I don’t usually respond to Instagram messages, and I don’t know if it was because I was feeling lonely, but I responded,’ she previously told her Instagram followers.
‘I looked at his profile and we had some mutual friends and he looked like a nice guy. He also didn’t have a lot of posts – and I liked that,’ she said.

‘I really enjoyed the chats but I never thought I’d ever see this person – it was just nice to chat. I was in a good place with my mental health and I didn’t want to put myself in a position where I could be hurt again.’
The designer eventually met up with Peter at The Tan, a popular running route in Melbourne, and said they have been together ever since.
After going public in late 2022, Nadia and Peter have often been seen cuddling up at exclusive events and on sweet dates around Melbourne.
The loved-up couple were pictured sharing a passionate kiss at the Australian Open in Melbourne last year.
If the speculation is true, it would be Bartel’s second time walking down the aisle.

Nadia announced her split from retired AFL Geelong Cats star Jimmy Bartel in August 2019, five years after they tied the knot on the Bellarine Peninsula.
She shares her sons Aston, eight, and Henley, six, with her AFL star ex-husband Jimmy Bartel, who she was married to from 2014 to 2021.
Jimmy welcomed daughter Paloma with Amelia Sheppard in April last year.
