Alex breaks silence on new love
Bachelor Richie Strahan says their relationship breakdown left him “shattered”.
Now, his ex-girlfriend Alex Nation has broken her silence on the split that saw her find love with another woman.
Talking on her radio show 88.3 Southern FM, Alex, 26, was discussing the upcoming same-sex marriage plebiscite and urged listeners to vote in favour of gay marriage.
“I think if you have a connection with someone you can’t – people can’t help who they connect with,” she said.
Till now Alex has kept silent on her rumoured new love interest, 31-year-old Maegan Luxa, who she met while playing for the Frankston Bombers AFL team.
The pair has already been spotted kissing and canoodling at several events.
The blonde beauty also joked about the media scrutiny surrounding her lesbian romance, but then took a more serious tone when discussing gay marriage.
“We should celebrate love between people whether it is male, male and female or woman and female,” she said.
She also revealed that joining her football tram opened her up to the world of lesbian relationships
“Before being in a football club I didn’t have any friends that were in relationships with women I’d never experienced that,” she said
But the mother-of-one stopped short of expressly naming just who exactly had stolen her heart saying she was “close to everyone” at the football club.
