Nova star Lauren Phillips cheekily admits to hitting the booze while her jet tycoon fiancé Paul O’Brien is away: ‘The wheels are off!’

Lauren Phillips revealed she has been hitting the margaritas while her jet tycoon fiancé Paul O’Brien is abroad.

The Nova radio host, 41, told her co-stars Jase Hawkins and Clint Stanaway live on their Melbourne breakfast show on Tuesday that she’s living it up while her partner is away.

Joking that she is ‘allergic to having a bad time’, the media personality said she cheekily indulged in a few cocktails on a weekday night.

‘I had a few margaritas on a Monday,’ she told her co-host and listeners. 

Jase, 42, was left stunned by the admission, saying: ‘Oh, Jesus. The wheels are off with you.’

‘Paul’s away and I am living. You know why? Because I’m allergic to having a bad time,’ Lauren confessed.

Newsreader Clint, 41, then asked her about her choice of margarita: ‘Were they OG, were they spicy, or were they Tommy’s?’ 

To which Lauren responded: ‘I did a classic on the rocks,’ giving an insight into her boozy night at home.

It comes after Lauren recently celebrated the joint July 21 birthday of her fiancé Paul O’Brien and her AFL star friend Tom Hawkins in Melbourne last week.

The birthday boys were all smiles in sweet photos shared to Instagram, which captured the pair celebrating over lunch with Lauren and Tom’s wife Emma.

One image showed the Geelong Cats star having the time of his life with Lauren’s partner Paul and their celebrity friends over drinks at a fancy Melbourne restaurant.

Another adorable photo showed Lauren’s A-list gal pals – including AFL WAG Emma Hawkins – posing up a storm outside a local bar, as they shared laughter and drinks. 

Lauren captioned the gallery with some heartfelt words, ‘A Sunday well spent. Happy Birthday Paul and Tom,’ and added a love heart emoji.

Lauren announced her engagement to Paul in July last year after the aviation boss proposed during a romantic trip to Mykonos.

Paul runs high-end aviation charter group AVMIN, with celebrity clients including Matt Damon and Chris Hemsworth.
