Kelly Brook moves to Australia with rugby star Danny Cipriani


BRITISH actress and model Kelly Brook was moving to Australia to start a new life with her rugby star boyfriend Danny Cipriani, The Sun reported today.

Brook, 30, revealed tonight she would travel with Cipriani, 22, when he joins his new team Melbourne Rebels in Australia next season.

The couple were together for 18 months but came close to splitting last year, and friends feared the relationship would not survive Cipriani's move to Australia.

But Brook's spokesman said, "Kelly is delighted for Danny and will be going out to Melbourne with him.

"She will travel back and forth to the UK for work but will be living full-time in Australia."

One of Cipriani's friends said, "They think it will do them good to get out of the goldfish bowl in London and lead a life of relative anonymity in Australia for a while.

"There may be some acting opportunities for Kelly in Melbourne, but she's prepared to put her career in England on hold for Danny.

It was all going so well for the lovebirds - moving in together and buying a puppy - but now Kelly Brook's international rugby-playing boyfriend has got a job on the other side of the world.

Danny Cipriani, who at 21 is nine years younger than Kelly, has decided to leave the English rugby team he has played for for the past 15 years and relocate to Australia, to play for the Melbourne Rebels.

He has signed a two year contract with the club - leaving the pair's 18 month relationship in doubt.

Kelly has recently been forging a career on the stage, staring in Calendar Girls and is currently on tour with Strictly Come Dancing. But she has hinted that Danny may be "the one".

She told Red magazine last October: "I was very cool about our friendship to begin with. I would say: 'Here are the keys to my flat. Come and go as you please'.

"But he has been the one that has said 'No, I really want to be with you. I love you and care about you', and I am really happy about that.

"I have been with so many guys who have said 'You're mine. Let's get married and have kids' and I have always said no because I have always wanted my independence and my own life.

"But now that I am with Danny, properly as a couple, I am looking forward to giving all that up."

The Daily Mail has learnt that Cipriani was in fact offered a higher salary to move to France's Top 14 league. But he decided he wanted a new challenge on the other side of the world.

From being golden boy of rugby when he made his debut in March 2008, he is now regarded by many commentators as England manager Martin Johnson’s sixth choice fly-half.

On the move: The Wasps player leave England after the end of the season

Cipriani will join newly formed Rugby Union team Melbourne Rebels.

Miss Brook is widely regarded as one of the nation's most beautiful women.

But she has suffered setbacks throughout her showbusiness career.

She was derided when she became a presenter on now-defunct Channel 4 show The Big Breakfast.

Her film career has been equally difficult. Indeed, Fishtales - her big-screen effort with ex-boyfriend Billy Zane - was labelled as one of the worst films ever when it came out in 2007.

And last year, she was added as a judge on Britain’s Got Talent – only to be axed within a week.

Since then, she has appeared in the West End production of Calendar Girls and is currently taking part in the touring production of Strictly Come Dancing.

Today, a spokesman for Miss Brook said: 'Kelly is delighted for Danny and will be going out to Melbourne with him. However, she will then split her time between the UK and Australia because of ongoing work commitments.'

An announcement made by Cipriani today made no reference to his personal life, but he did admit moving to Australia would be a 'challenge.'

He said: 'Leaving Wasps is very hard – this is my home, I have played here since I was 15. I see this move as the next step in my career and would never rule out coming back to play in England.

'I have some of the best coaches and players in the game around me at Wasps, which is why it has been so hard to make my decision, but I am still young enough to go away and experience something completely different.

'I want to be the best player I can be and this is a huge challenge and opportunity to test myself, on and off the pitch, because it will be changing everything I know.'

The pair first began seeing each other in September 2008 just a few weeks after Miss Brook broke up with American actor Billy Zane, 44.

She dated English actor Jason Statham for seven years before splitting in 2004.

Killer Curves



Bigger is not always better when it comes to the feminine assets. That’s what the result of Good Surgeon Guide Poll of the British hotties seems to be suggesting. For topping the list is the modestly endowed Cheryl Cole, whose (bre)assets have been voted the best in Britain, followed by the more rounded curves of Katy Perry and Kelly Brook.

Interestingly, Katie Price aka Jordan, who’s gone under the knife five times to get ample enhancement, was voted the celeb with worst breasts. Model Alicia Douvall’s oversized assets have also been voted one of the worst.

“It would appear that women are more in favour of the natural look nowadays and feel it says something about their personality as well as their look,” Christiana Clogg, founder of the Good Surgeon Guide, is quoted by The Sun.

Kelly Brook has an untidy lady garden


She may look the picture of perfect grooming on the outside, but Kelly Brook has let slip a secret - she's not so good at remembering to wax her bikini line. Eww!

The model and actress was interviewed in Cosmopolitan magazine when she revealed that sometimes her boyfriend, rugby player Danny Cipriani, has to remind her to attend to it.

She said: "I don't see my waxer as much as I should! My boyfriend sometimes has to ask me to make an appointment."

Oh, Kelly - are you sure you want the world to know this information?!

Moving swiftly on, the 30-year-old also said she was happy with her classic hourglass figure and "natural" style. She said: "I hate the WAG style everyone's obsessed with. It's all bad fake tan, blonde hair extensions and fake nails. They spend a fortune but look tacky.

"Women in the 1950s were so much sexier. That's what I aspire to look like. I always think my mum gave me this face, this body and I'm grateful. I don't want to start messing around with what she gave me."
