Louise Pillidge had revealed in one of her earlier interviews that she will be moving to Perth to be with Blake Garvey. This week, she has announced on Instagram that her car is on its way to Perth, indicating that the couple may soon begin living together.

It's all happening my car is on it's way to PERTH! But first my annual mother daughter trip ❤so happy to spend some quality time with my beautiful mother!"
In the second season of "The Bachelor Australia," Louise was the second runner-up. The penultimate episode of the show saw Louise confessing to Blake, 31, that she loves him in Afrikaans. However, Blake sent her home in the episode. After her elimination, Louise said that she would always love Blake. And in the season finale, Blake got down on his knee and asked Sam Frost to marry him. The two got engaged on the show. But, a few days before the telecast of the final episode, Blake pulled the plug on his engagement with Sam and wrote a letter to Louise, expressing his true feelings for her. He asked Louise's dad to deliver the letter to his daughter.
Soon after the telecast of the season finale, Blake and Louise went to Thailand to spend some romantic time together. It is there that they gave their first interview together, confirming rumours that they are a couple. Louise said in one of the interviews that Blake sent her home in the penultimate episode because he wanted to protect her. She called him her protector.
Louise and Blake have not yet made many appearances together in public as a couple. Their first appearance as a couple was at 2014 Melbourne Cup. According to Daily Mail, Blake said at the event, 'We enjoy each others' company and we love being around each other, this woman just makes me so happy." He also revealed that they are going to live together when Louise moves to Perth. Daily Mail has quoted him as saying, "'I don't think there's any real point moving across the country if you're not going to live together."
