Since choosing Carlin in the finale of her season of The Bachelorette Australia, all eyes have been on Angie and her new man.

And when the happy couple were spotted at a jewellery store in Sydney recently, engagement rumours began flying. The ex-Gogglebox star, however, reveals an engagement is far from her mind.

“Everyone’s like, ‘Oh, my god! They’re engaged!'”Angie, 30, tells TV WEEK, “But it’s just a 30th birthday gift.”

For now Angie is happy taking things slow and getting to know Carlin away from the cameras.

“We’ve only just started dated really,” she says.

The next big step doesn’t involve a diamond ring, but a move from her home in Queensland to Sydney.

“Most of my work was here last year, Carlin is here, so many of my friends are here,” Angie explains, “So it makes sense.”

Claudia Karvan: ‘I’m too old to care!’

While reality television is sometimes seen as a tacky ticket to 15 minutes of fame, acting legend Claudia Karvan couldn’t disagree more.

“Signing up to Dancing With The Stars has been one of the most thrilling chapters of my career,” Claudia says.

While there may have been a few raised eyebrows following Claudia’s inclusion on the cast, the three-time TV WEEK Logie Award winner couldn’t care less.

“I’m too old to worry about what people think,” the 47-year-old says. “I’m beyond that, I’ve come very late to dance in my life, and I’ve just fallen in love with it.”

Claudia has partnered with two-time mirror ball champion, Aric Yegudkin.

“Aric is incredible, to get one-on-one tuition by someone with so much skill and experience, why would I ever pass that up?” Claudia says.

Despite focusing all her energies on rehearsals, acting remains Claudia’s top priority.

The Secret Life Of Us ran for four seasons from 2001.

With reboots all the rage, is there any chance we’ll see a The Secret Life Of Us reunion in the future?

“People have talked about it, but no one has mentioned it to me professionally,” Claudia says. “I think people would like to see it, but I’m not sure what incarnation that would be.”
