Sophie Monk - ‘I'VE NEVER BEEN HAPPIER'

THE BEAUTY AND THE GEEK HOST INTRODUCES WHO TO HER FIANCÉ AND DISHES ON HER VERY UNIQUE WEDDING AND BABY PLANS

- Melissa Field

Sophie Monk and her fiancé Joshua Gross are the kind of couple who finish each other’s sentences and laugh at each other’s jokes. Gross – who’s accompanied Monk to WHO’s exclusive photo shoot – patiently scrolls his phone while Monk is in the makeup chair but makes sure she’s well looked after during the prep, supplying her with a large skim flat white and water. “He’s got my back and he’s just so considerate,” says Monk, 41.

While Gross, who works in neurosurgical robotics, prefers to let Monk do most of the talking, he admits he knew she was the woman for him as soon as they met and adds he couldn’t be prouder of her. “I don’t know a lot about her world,” he says. “But when I came onto the set while she was filming Beauty and the Geek [BATG], I was blown away by her talent. She’s incredible. I’m a very lucky guy.” Here, Monk dishes on their “perfect” relationship and upcoming wedding plans …

So, where are you both at with organising your big day?

MONK We haven’t organised anything yet but I’m not worried.

Will you tie the knot this year?
