Irena Srbinovska reveals it’s been a year since she first smooched Locky Gilbert on The Bachelor

They captured Australia’s heart with a memorable kiss during The Bachelor Australia last year.

And Irena Srbinovska has revealed that the first smooch shared with Locky Gilbert happened exactly one year ago, in a Sunday Instagram Story.

The 31-year-old nurse also shared a steamy image of the pair in their passionate clinch. 

In a subsequent post, Irena addressed her fans’ burning question about the reality TV lovebirds.

‘For those asking our anniversary is [The Bachelor] finale which is July 18th’. 

The insight comes after Irena and Locky revealed their ‘five-year’ plan in a series of Instagram Stories earlier this month.

Nurse Irena explained the couple would love to have two children – ideally twins – and that marriage was also on the cards.

She said of their future: ‘Locky is super easy to talk to about marriage and babies. He is just as excited about our future as I am.’

The couple recently completed a trip around Australia and are almost at the end of their holiday as they settle back into Locky’s home state of Perth.

The pair had initially moved to Perth in October, shortly after The Bachelor finished airing.

Irena was also asked during her Instagram Q&A whether she still kept in touch with other stars from The Bachelor.

She indicated she had heard from ‘all but a couple of the girls’, and said she was particularly close with contestant Laura Calleri.

Her career in nursing was also brought up, with Irena revealing she will take up a new position in Perth in the near future.

She had previously quit her old job at a Melbourne hospital last year.
