The couple, who met on The Bachelorette in 2016, had to nix their lavish Italian dream wedding due to travel restrictions caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
And now their dreams of a Tasmanian trip down the aisle appear to be in jeopardy, too.
‘So like HOW FUNNY IS IT when you cancel your Italy wedding and book it for Tasmania instead and then the Premier shuts the borders til at least December,’ Georgia shared on Twitter.

‘HAHAHAHAHA OMG SO FUNNY I’M TOTALLY FINE!!!!!’ she added.
The Premier of Tasmania, Peter Gutwein, made the announcement on Tuesday, saying it allowed sufficient time for the COVID-19 situation in Victoria to be brought under control following a surge in cases of the deadly respiratory disease.
In June, the journalist told the Ben Rob & Robbo show that the couple had been forced to change the location of their wedding to Tasmania due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

‘We were planning on a wedding for Italy next year so in 2021,’ she said.
‘But we’ve gone back on those plans, so we figured there’s just too many “what-ifs” in the world at the moment.’
The television presenter added that even if international travel opens, the couple still plan to hold their nuptials in Georgia’s home state of Tasmania instead.
‘Even if Italy is fine by then we do not want to put it on our family and friends that they have to find the money to do so in such uncertain times with people losing their jobs,’ she added.
Georgia chose Lee in the finale of The Bachelorette in 2016 and the pair announced their engagement in 2019.
