Newly-engaged Jack Whitehall and Roxy Horner take daughter Elsie to feed koalas, emus and kangaroos in day out at Brisbane wildlife sanctuary

Newly-engaged Jack Whitehall and Roxy Horner take daughter Elsie to feed koalas, emus and kangaroos in day out at Brisbane wildlife sanctuary

Jack Whitehall and his new fiancée Roxy Horner enjoyed a fun-filled day out with their daughter Elsie at a wildlife sanctuary in Brisbane.

The comedian, 36, took to his Instagram on Tuesday to share a slew of glimpses of their visit, showing the family interacting with a number of famous Aussie animals.

One hilarious snap saw Roxy, 33, holding their 16-month-old and pulling a disgusted face as the koala she was petting began to defecate, while her mischievous fiancé pointed it out with glee.

The model looked typically stylish for the day trip as she put on a leggy display in a backless floral patterned dress and trainers, with her blonde hair pulled up in trendy scrunchie.

Meanwhile, Jack donned a khaki polo shirt and simple black shorts, but voiced his mortification after he realised his outfit looked uncannily similar to the uniform of the sanctuary staff.

The couple also took turns feeding an emu, but a nervous Roxy quickly backed away and kept her distance, while Jack bravely allowed the bird to eat from his hand.

However, he soon ran out of grain and jokingly offering it his phone before grabbing Elsie’s pram and running away.

Captioning the pH๏τos in his usual cheeky tone, Jack wrote: ‘Great day out in Brisbane at @lonepinekoala I reunited with my spirit animal, had a close encounter with a Koala curling one out and accidentally dressed like I worked there.’

The family’s trip Down Under comes just weeks after Roxy confirmed their engagement following a flurry of speculation.

She revealed the pair were indeed set to tie the knot as she showed off her pear-shaped diamond ring last month.

Taking to her Instagram ahead of New Year’s Eve, she shared a compilation of all her highlights from the last two months of 2024, including several looks at her huge sparkler and a glimpse of the moment Jack popped the question.

And further confirming that the couple were to become husband and wife, she shared a pH๏τo of Jack with the caption: ‘Best fiancé in the world’, followed by a diamond ring emoji.

The video began with Roxy showing a diamond ring balloon and engagement box-themed Christmas tree ornament, before she spun her own hand around to reveal her real ring.

While one sH๏τ appeared to hint at Jack’s romantic proposal, as Roxy showed off her dazzling rock in front of a line of lit-up Christmas trees.

The video was met with a plethora of well wishes from her pals and fans, with one notable comment being from her new fiancé, who simply penned: ‘My love’, along with three red heart emojis.  

The couple had previously sparked rumours they were set to walk down the aisle, when the mother-of-one showed off a huge diamond ring at Winter Wonderland last month.

Snapping selfies with Jack and Elsie, Roxy could also be seen sporting a tear shaped diamond set on a silver band on her engagement finger.

The couple have been in a relationship since 2020, before welcoming daughter Elsie in September 2023 at the iconic Lindo Wing, in which a host of royals have given birth.

Jack admitted the experience was both ‘utterly overwhelming’ and ‘joyous’ in ways he ‘couldn’t have imagined’. 

He wrote at the time: ‘Well this just happened! Utterly overwhelming and joyous in ways I couldn’t have even imagined.

‘In awe of my partner @roxyhorner who has been amazing throughout this journey and is going to be the greatest mum ever. So excited to have started a family of my own.

‘Having vowed I’d never be that guy I am now 100% going to be the parent that shows everyone endless pictures of their kid. I also wore skechers to hospital, I think I must accept I am a full blown dad now.

‘Name wise after this weekend I think ‘rice, rice, baby’ has a nice ring to it.’

The couple then revealed Elsie’s name which means ‘Pledged to God’ in Hebrew.
