The Wiggles star Emma Watkins announced her engagement to boyfriend Oliver Brian on Monday night.
Emma’s Wiggles guitarist beau proposed to her during the band’s recent New Zealand tour with a stunning diamond sparkler.
However, on Friday, Emma chose to keep their joyous news a secret a little longer as she jetted into Sydney without her fiancé or ring in sight.

Yellow Wiggle Emma appears to have hidden the ring in order to make the official announcement at a later date – Monday.
Despite this, Emma couldn’t help but show off an infectious grin while walking through the terminal with Oliver and her fellow cast and crew of The Wiggles.
Emma, 31, looked worlds away from her famed TV persona as she wore a black T-shirt, grey pleated skirt and white sneakers.
She appeared to fly in without her fiancé, in perhaps another move to conceal their exciting news until they were both able to share it together.

Instead, Emma was seen arriving back in Sydney with notable Wiggle stars Lachlan Gillespie (Purple Wiggle), Anthony Field (Blue Wiggle) and Simon Pryce (Red Wiggle).
Simon was also joined by wife Lauren Hannaford and their baby boy Asher.
Fitness trainer Lauren, 32, met Simon, 49, while dancing on tour with The Wiggles – and has previously played the role of Wags the Dog, Henry the Octopus, and Dorothy the Dinosaur within the popular children’s group.
Original Blue Wiggle Anthony, 57, was also seen in a pink polo shirt and green denim jacket in the airport.

Emma confirmed her relationship with Oliver in an interview with The Daily Telegraph’s Stellar Magazine in December 2019.
‘Yes, I’m in love and I feel very excited to tell you,’ she told the publication, describing their relationship as ‘new’ at the time.
She said Oliver was the ‘opposite’ to her in personality, but described their relationship as being ‘nice’.

News of the couple moving in together came less than two weeks after Emma’s ex-husband, fellow Wiggles member Lachlan Gillespie, 35, announced his engagement to dancer Dana Stephenson.
‘On Thursday night, Dana asked me to marry her at home under a fairy light sky and a very excited little boy in a beautiful bow tie,’ the purple Wiggle announced on Instagram on April 13.
Emma appeared to give their engagement her approval, commenting with three purple hearts on Lachy’s post.

In August 2018, Emma and former husband Lachlan announced their split.
The former couple – who joined The Wiggles in 2013 and started dating weeks later – had married in Bowral, New South Wales in 2016.
Despite their break-up, Lachlan and Emma have vowed to remain friends and still perform together in The Wiggles.
When Emma made the official announcement on Monday, Lachy left several purple heart emojis in a comment that read: ‘love you guys.’
