Abbey Holmes and Keegan Brooksby got engaged in November 2020 and now after almost three years, the pair have set a wedding date.
The AFL Women’s player, 32, has revealed she is set to marry the Hawthorn star next month in the Northern Territory.
‘It’s a place that was a massive part of my journey to where I am today and a place that means a lot to us,’ she told the Herald Sun.
‘So many of our guests haven’t been to that part of the world so it’s pretty special to be able to get back there and share with them why we love it so much.’
The pair will tie the knot before 100 guests including her Channel 7 colleagues Brian Taylor and Luke Hodge as well as former Survivor Australia star Lydia Lassila.

Abbey will be wearing a gown by Oglia-loro Couture and the couple will each have one person in their bridal party – Abbey’s sister and Keegan’s school friend.
Keegan got down on one knee to propose to Abbey while they holidayed in Uluru, NT in 2020.
At the time, the sports star showed off her stunning new diamond ring and said she ‘can’t wait to marry her best friend.’
‘…. and then on our own private sand dune, in the heart of Australia, I SAID YES,’ she wrote.
Abbey added: ‘I can’t wait to marry you, my best friend. The organised to my chaos. My rock. I love you.’

Abbey met Keegan on the dating app Bumble.
‘Because of my job and what I do, I was always adamant I couldn’t have any app like that,’ Abbey told AAA in 2019.
She added: ‘My friend was sick of me not putting myself out there and, fearful I’d become that crazy, single cat lady, set me up a Bumble account.
‘My first date was him so I am a 100 per cent strike rate.’
