Bride who abstained from sex before marriage with her footy star husband reveals how its going in the bedroom one week after they tied the knot

Christy Young has opened up about her intimate relationship with her Canterbury Bulldogs star husband Max King after abstaining from sex during their engagement.

The couple, who are both Christians, exchanged vows on Wednesday at Curzon Hall in Sydney, surrounded by family and friends.

Following their special day, the model, 25, revealed the newlyweds are enjoying their new relationship as husband and wife.

‘We’d like to keep some private things to ourselves but let’s just say we’re enjoying the fruits of marriage,’ she told Daily Mail Australia.

Christy went on to say the couple would love to have children in the future.

‘Who knows maybe a honeymoon baby!’ she added.

Christy and Max famously abstained from sex during their engagement.

‘We are so loud and proud about our faith… it’s never been something we’ve shied away from because it is so important to us,’ Christy told 2DayFM’s Hughesy, Ed and Erin show in March.

‘We spoke about it (remaining celibate) early on… on the first or second date.

‘Christian dating 101 is you’re not wasting anyone’s time, it’s a conversation we didn’t shy away from and honestly we’ve seen such fruit from it in our relationship in terms of communication… it’s just so good.’

Christy laughed as she described being set up with Max by their pastor, and believes the pair remaining celibate certainly helped his game on the footy field.

‘We met at church. I was living on the Gold Coast and he was sitting in front of me… we didn’t talk that day but the pastor set us up. If you want a good guy, find him in church,’ she laughed.

‘When it (sex) isn’t the forefront of everything, it’s like we’ve just been able to have such good conversations and build on our relationship, and we have such a good support system for each other.

‘It (celibacy) does help his game, in that it’s just that we have such a good foundation in our relationship.’

She also admitted she was once hesitant about their relationship given Max’s profession.

‘When I met him I was like, ‘oh you’re a footy player, red flag, what have I got myself into,” she said.

‘We’d like to keep some private things to ourselves but let’s just say we’re enjoying the fruits of marriage,’ she told Daily Mail Australia

‘For sure [his teammates are supportive]… but when we first started dating they were like, ‘as if you guys are’ [abstaining from sex].

‘The bible says, ‘deny the flesh and God will bless you’, and we’ve seen such fruit from that.

‘I feel so blessed to have met Max… we are the puzzle pieces that fit together and it’s all down to God,’ said the glamorous model.
