Tania Buckley snapped wedding dress shopping

Wedding bells are set to ring with Buckley meeting with a noted Melbourne wedding dress designer on Friday to help choose fabrics and embellishments for a special upcoming marriage.Looking fit, happy and relaxed Buckley offered style advice to her long-time mate, PR whiz Leilani Abels on the look and design of her wedding dress.Abels, the head of Thrive PR, and Buckley have been dear friends, best buddies and close confidents for decades.The pair met with Melbourne bridal supremo Jason Grech, another close friend of Buckley’s, to nut out the perfect wedding gown for Abels.While the public and media interest in her split from the Collingwood coach has no doubt been unwelcome, Buckley appears to be getting on with the things that matter in her life.

She and Nathan were seen at Portsea during the new year holiday season with their children.Nathan was also spotted on several occasions at the Sorrento Hotel during summer holiday break relaxing with locals.There has also been a deal of interest in Nathan’s cutely named Instagram page @nthcaulfieldbogan and select number of people – particularly athletic and sporty women – he follows via that social media page.The Buckleys announced that their 18 year marriage was over in December, revealing that they had actually separated in January 2020.“It has been a tough and challenging year for every family and for ours included,” their joint statement said.“It is with the utmost love and respect for each other and a true commitment to our sons, that we have made a decision to separate in January.“We remain dedicated parents and in the interests of our boys, we ask for our family to be given the privacy that is needed.“We thank everyone in advance for understanding our request and for the unconditional love and support we have received throughout our marriage.”
