The Bachelor’s Brittany Hockley says her long-distance romance with her new Swiss footballer boyfriend Benjamin Siegrist is ‘perfect’: ‘I didn’t know men like him existed’
Brittany Hockley has revealed that she and her new boyfriend Benjamin Siegrist are head over heels in love.
The couple, who have been dating since the end of last year, told this week’s issue of Stellar Magazine that they make their long-distance relationship work for them.
The 35-year-old says that when she met the ‘perfect’ and ‘beautiful’ Swiss footballer, she assumed they would only spend one night together after enjoying a dinner date, as he was due to leave the country.
‘As much as I didn’t want to do long-distance again, I think this is it. I think I’m in trouble’ she said.
‘Ben is a prime example of not judging a book by its cover. When I met him, I thought he was going to be such a player’ the former Bachelor star went on.

‘But he couldn’t be further removed from that. He is probably the most gentlemanly gentleman I have ever met.
‘It’s very evident that he was brought up by women because of the way he treats women. It’s such a cliché, but I didn’t know men like him existed’.
Benjamin, 31, told the publication that he was sure their love would work out despite spending swathes of time apart.
‘Me being me and spontaneous, I said, “Why does it matter where I live? We can still do this”‘ he said.

‘We’ve both not made relationships work with people who are in close proximity to us, so who’s to say it can’t work out with somebody literally halfway across the globe?’
Things have been getting serious between Brittany and her beau.
The couple turned up the heat during a romantic holiday Bali this month when they showed off their incredible beach bodies in stunning holiday snaps.
Back in January, Brittany confirmed she was happily in love as she shared a video montage of the pair spending time together in Paris and Scotland.
‘From Paris, with love. Think I may have found me a keeper #hardestlaunch,’ she captioned the video.

Brittany also shared intimate details about their romance on Life Uncut’s Instagram.
‘Fam. I went and unexpectedly fell in love, in case you missed it,’ she wrote.
‘Thank you for your patience with me while I was figuring it out! I know you wanted to know all about it, and I can’t wait to share it with you a little more.’
The former Bachelor in Paradise star also revealed Benjamin was the ‘biggest supporter’ of her podcasting career.
The pair met in November on the celebrity dating app Raya and at the time, the goalkeeper’s soccer team, the Glasgow-based Celtic FC, was playing in Australia against Sydney FC.
