As she made her way to the star-studded event, she posed for a snap alongside stylist Daniel Paciocco and shared it on Instagram.

‘We are en route,’ she captioned while tagging Flemington Racecource – where the event is held each year.

Alex styled her cropped blonde locks in a slicked back hairdo and wore flawlessly applied makeup consisting of foundation, blush, eye-shadow and red lipstick.

The outing comes after the single mum’s whirlwind holiday in Indonesia with her lover Maegan.

The smitten pair put on an amorous display while frolicking on a Bali beach on various occasions last month.

In September, Alex remained coy about her blossoming romance with her AFL teammate Magean.

‘I think love is love. You can’t help your connection with someone whether you’re in a heterosexual or same sex relationship,’ she told The Herald Sun.

‘At the end of the day love should be supported.

She continued: ‘I think when you come off the back of something like The Bachelor, it is a rollercoaster and it’s full of ups and downs … You really try to find your feet in the first six months … I’m in a really good place.’

Alex rose to prominence last year, after winning Perth hunk Richie Strahan’s heart on The Bachelor.

'I think love is love. You can't help your connection with someone whether you're in a heterosexual or same sex relationship,' she told The Herald Sun

The pair split months later before Alex began dating Maegan.

She has not publicly addressed speculation surrounding her sexuality.

In August she told The Sydney Morning Herald that she would be voting ‘yes’ in the same-sex marriage survey.

‘I will absolutely be voting for marriage equality and would proudly support it in any way I possibly can,’ she said. 

‘Love wins.’
