The glitz and glamour of the AFL's night of nights, the Brownlow Medal, was the backdrop for a budding new romance as Western Bulldogs player Rory Lobb arrived arm-in-arm with model Lexi Mary.
The towering ruckman, 31, cut a dapper figure in a classic black tuxedo, while his new companion, Lexi Mary, turned heads in a breathtaking, sleek black gown. Their coordinated arrival and easy chemistry as they posed for photographers on the red carpet sent a clear message: this was more than just a friendly plus-one.
From Solo to Smitten
This public debut comes just a few months after Lobb's split from his previous long-term partner. The footballer had been navigating life as a single man, making his appearance with the stunning model a significant step forward.
Throughout the evening at Crown Palladium in Melbourne, the pair were inseparable. Onlookers noted they shared laughs and intimate conversations, appearing completely smitten with one another. Lobb, known for his focus on the field, seemed relaxed and delighted in Mary's company.
Who is Lexi Mary?
Lexi Mary, who boasts a significant following on social media, is no stranger to the spotlight. Her elegant style and presence made her a perfect fit for the black-tie affair. While Lobb was there to support his fellow athletes in the count for the league's best and fairest player, it was clear his own personal highlight was the woman by his side.
The Brownlow Medal is Australian Rules Football's equivalent of the Oscars, and this year, it provided the perfect, glamorous setting for a new celebrity coupling to be unveiled. While Lobb's team, the Western Bulldogs, didn't take home the top award, the player himself seemed to have already won his prize for the evening.
