Nova radio star Lauren Phillips recently hosted a boozy lunch in Melbourne to celebrate the joint July 21 birthday of her fiancé Paul O’Brien and her AFL star friend Tom Hawkins.
Phillips’ aviation mogul fiancé Paul and Tom, 36, were all smiles in some sweet photos shared to Instagram, which captured the pair celebrating with Lauren and Tom’s wife Emma.
One image showed the Geelong Cats star having the time of his life with Lauren’s partner Paul and their celebrity friends over drinks at a fancy Melbourne restaurant.
Another adorable photo showed Lauren’s A-list gal pals – including AFL WAG Emma Hawkins – posing up a storm outside a local bar, as they shared laughter and drinks.
Lauren appeared to be on filming duties as she did not appear in any of the birthday party photos shared to social media.
The brunette beauty captioned the gallery with some heartfelt words: ‘A Sunday well spent. Happy Birthday Paul and Tom’, and added a love heart emoji.
Lauren announced her engagement to Paul in July last year after the aviation boss proposed during a romantic trip to Mykonos.
O’Brien runs high-end aviation charter group AVMIN and has several celebrity clients, including Matt Damon, his wife Luciana Barroso, Chris Hemsworth and his wife Elsa Pataky.
