'It's a love language for us': Delta Goodrem makes rare comments about her husband-to-be Matthew Copley following glamorous hen's party celebrations
The 40-year-old singer-songwriter celebrated her hen's party over the weekend aboard a luxury yacht in Palm Beach, joined by close friends including former Nine presenter Airlie Walsh and Today show entertainment reporter Renee Bargh.
Goodrem, who has long kept her relationship with Copley out of the spotlight, explained why she prefers to keep details of their romance and upcoming nuptials under wraps.
"He chooses music, but he doesn't choose this," the Born to Try singer told Stellar.
"It's a love language for us (performing together), but I do love keeping us as a sacred house, too. That's important to me."
Delta and Matthew, who are based in Los Angeles, have been together for six years and are believed to have met through their mutual friend, fellow Aussie singer Conrad Sewell.
"Music is how we met, it's what we both do," she told Stellar in an earlier interview.
"I have an amazing partner and we live a good life and we get to tour the world doing what we love to do."
The Sydney-born performer, who was previously engaged to Irish singer Brian McFadden and has been romantically linked to Mark Philippoussis and Nick Jonas, has always described herself as someone who values deep, lasting relationships.
"I'm somebody who loves to go deeper. I'm all about long-term friendships and relationships, and I love those people with all my heart," she told HELLO! magazine in 2020.
"When Matt and I work together, it's really easy to go straight to the core of our feelings because we're living and breathing life together all the time. It's wonderful to work with him."
In 2023, the couple launched their own record label, ATLED Records.
"I started ATLED Records and premiered the first song live on stage! What a day…!!!" Copley wrote on social media in July that year.
"Getting to play music anywhere is special for me, playing music anywhere with my love is even better, playing music with my love with my family in Malta was so incredible!"
With Delta set to perform at Hackney Empire in London this May, it's understood the wedding will likely take place in June or July.

LOGIE AWARDSAustralia's TV stars took to the red carpet last night for the Logie awards. It's that time of year again to celebrate Aussie TV at the 65th annual Logie Awards. To kick things off, Jimmy Barnes sang a song, and comedian Sam Pang hosted the event for the third time in a row. Yeah, he had a few cheeky quips throughout the night. So, on to the awards! The ABC cleaned up with 11 of them! Including the comedy show Fisk, which bagged one for best scripted comedy, and 4 for best lead and supporting actors in a comedy. Spelling Bee's Guy Montgomery nabbed Most Popular New Talent. And Best Children's program went to Bluey. Magda Szubanski was inducted into the Hall of Fame, who sadly couldn't be there because of her cancer treatment. Then, it was time for the top gong! The Gold Logie for Most Popular Personality on Aussie TV went to Lynne McGranger, who's been playing Irene Roberts on Home and Away since PROTEST Around 90,000 people marched across the Sydney Harbour Bridge yesterday, to take part in a protest in support of Palestine. The bridge was closed to traffic to let everyone walk across. But there were more people than expected, which prompted NSW police to get a bit worried that some people might end up getting squashed or crushed in the crowd, so they sent out a message ordering things to wrap up early.F1 It was another dominating performance for McClaren, Aussie Oscar Piastri and team mate Lando Norris started just behind the Ferrari of Charles LeClerc and did everything they could to catch him including setting the record for the fastest pit stop this year of just 1.94 seconds. In the end, Norris crossed the line just six hundredths of a second ahead of at the final of the swimming world championships in Singapore, Aussie Meg Harris added another gold to our medal tally winning the women's 50 meter freestyle last night. Meanwhile there were two extra silver medals courtesy of Jenna Forrester in the 400 metre individual medley and Kaylee McKeown, Ella Ramsay, Alexandria Perkins and Mollie O'Callaghan in the four by 100 medley relay. Bringing Australia's final medal count of eight golds, six silvers and six bronzes, second overall behind the United DE FRANCE FEMMEAnd to cycling, the Tour de France Femmes was a Festival of French pride, as French Rider Pauline Ferrand-Prevot dominated the final 124 kilometre stage to take the win. She's become the first French cyclist to take the winner's yellow jersey, and she's pretty pleased about MANFirst up, to a long line of 20 cars in Egypt being pulled along by this really strong man. Ashraf Kabonga is attempting to break the world record for the most cars pulled by an individual, and he managed to haul them about 10 meters. While it looks like he has the record in the bag now, Kabonga is still just waiting on official DOG CRASHNow to the US, where a truck carrying thousands of hot dogs spilled all over the Interstate 83 highway. Local police said the truck had a malfunction, and crashed, but luckily, nobody was seriously JULIET TRUCKS And finally, to a theatre shot unlike any you've seen before. Starring heavy machinery, buses, and cars, this is one Estonian theatre company's take on Romeo and Juliette. And it seems like the audience rather enjoyed it.

Via Sistina headlines star-studded Randwick trials as Horse of the Year finalists revealed
Via Sistina, the unbackable favourite to win Horse of the Year honours, headlines a galaxy of equine stars set to barrier trial at Royal Randwick on Thursday. Sydney's big wet forced the scheduled Tuesday trials session to be delayed 48 hours with trainer Chris Waller 's champion mare Via Sistina and her outstanding stablemate Fangirl clashing in the opening heat over 1000m against the likes of Another Wil, Light Infantry Man and Vauban. Waller is not concerned about the delay to the barrier trial session as it is more important the carnival horses compete on improving tack conditions. 'We are well ahead of schedule,'' Waller explained. 'Most of our horses have had their first trial and they are not racing until August 23 so we have some time up our sleeves. 'We will sit tight and whenever the weather improves we will be ready to go.'' Waller said Via Sistina and Fangirl are experienced mares and 'just find their groove' when they return to training with both on target for a comeback in the Group 1 $1m Winx Stakes (1400m) at Royal Randwick on August 23. The Hall of Fame trainer is also using Thursday's trials to give his trio of top class four-year-old mares Lady Shenandoah, Aeliana and Autumn Glow a chance to stretch their legs. Via Sistina, Fangirl, Lady Shenandoah, Aeliana and Autumn Glow figure prominently among the finalists in various categories for the Australian Racehorse of the Year awards as revealed by Racing Queensland and Racing Australia on Monday. The Horse of the Year awards ceremony, which will be held at The Star Brisbane on August 31, acknowledges results on domestic racecourses as well international performances by locally-trained horses during the 2024-25 season. 'Racing Queensland is honoured to host this year's Australian Racehorse of the Year ceremony, celebrating the stars of our sport and their outstanding achievements over the last season,'' RQ acting chief executive Lachlan Murray said. 'Similarly, it's fitting that the gala luncheon will see both Black Caviar and Winx elevated to Legend status in the Hall of Fame, both of whom have strong ties to Queensland.'' Via Sistina equalled all-time great Winx's record of seven Group 1 wins in a season including the rare Cox Plate-Queen Elizabeth Stakes double and she is a lock for Horse of the Year and Champion Middle Distance awards. But the other Horse of the Year distance and age group categories are anything but clear-cut. For the Champion 2yo award, there is little separating Golden Slipper winner Marhoona, Group 1 winners Nepotism (Champagne Stakes), Vinrock (ATC Sires Produce Stakes), and Cool Archie (JJ Atkins), and Godolphin's top filly Tempted. Godolphin also has Broadsiding (Golden Rose, Rosehill Guineas) among the main chances for the Champion 3yo Colt and Gelding award which also includes unbeaten Private Harry (The Galaxy), Linebacker (Randwick Guineas), Switzerland (Coolmore Stud Stakes) and Goldrush Guru (VRC Derby). One of the most contentious awards will be for Champion 3yo Filly which has Aeliana (ATC Australian Derby), unbeaten Autumn Glow, multiple Group 1 placegetter Lady Of Camelot, Lady Shenandoah (Flight Stakes, Surround Stakes, Coolmore Classic) and Treasurethe Moment (VRC Oaks, ATC Australian Oaks, Vinery Stud Stakes) as finalists. Similarly, Champion Sprinter is up for grabs with five elite Group 1 winners confirmed as finalists – Bella Nipotina (The Everest), Briasa (TJ Smith Stakes), Jimmysstar (Oakleigh Plate, All Aged Stakes), Joliestar (Newmarket Handicap, Kingsford Smith Cup), and Sunshine In Paris (Champions Sprint, Doomben 10,000). The Champion Stayer title isn't cut and dried either with Melbourne Cup winner Knight's Choice, Duke De Sessa (Caulfield Cup), Arapaho (Sydney Cup), English raider Dubai Honour (Tancred Stakes) and Godolphin's consistent mare Zardozi competing for the honour. Waller will be awarded the Champion Group 1 trainer for an extraordinary 13th successive season after he prepared an all-time record 19 big-race winners last season while jockey James McDonald has won his fifth consecutive title with 15 Australian major race wins. 2024/2025 AUSTRALIAN RACEHORSE OF THE YEAR AWARDS THE FINALISTS Champion 2yo: Cool Archie, Marhoona, Vinrock, Nepotism, Tempted Champion 3yo Filly: Aeliana, Autumn Glow, Lady Of Camelot, Lady Shenandoah, Treasurethe Moment
