Erin Holland represented Australia at Miss World 2013 on 28th September 2013 and finished at Top 11 at the end of the event finale. Erin was awarded the Miss World Continental Queen of Beauty, Oceania award along with placing as the first runner-up in the coveted Beauty with A Purpose philanthropy component.
Erin is presently a cricket presenter and was seen interviewing the all-rounder Australian cricketer Ben Cutting and two of those occasion dates to the 2019 edition of the Global T20 in Canada where Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh interrupted their interview and asked the couple, "When is the wedding guys? "I need to get ready" which left Cutting and Holland in splits. The couple met through common friends and they describe that moment as an instant connection.
The two started dating during the summer of 2015 and attended the Allan Border medal together in 2015 and started making their relationship official during the Indian Premier League the same year. The two have been inseparable ever since but have also admitted to have spending some time apart due to work commitments but Erin and Ben have managed to keep the spark alive. They got engaged in 2019 and were planning on getting married in the mid-June of 2020.
The couple postponed their wedding twice last year due to the outbreak of the pandemic across the world and they wanted to look after the safety of their families and friends who they expected to attend the wedding. Erin and Ben were happy that the members of both the families could make it to the wedding and stated, “Our families are from all over so we had to reschedule a couple of times with borders opening and closing. Everyone was so accommodating and we are so grateful they all made the time, three times, to be with us for our wedding.”
Erin and Ben got hitched in Byron Bay, New South Wales, at Elements of Byron’s Heart of the Bay. The beauty queen looked stunning as she wore three different J’Aton couture creations over the course of a two-day celebration while Ben Cutting was dressed in Alex Goodman Custom. “I honestly felt like a princess, the dress was magical. It all came together at the last minute. We couldn’t do fittings in person so it was all done online,” the former queen stated. Singers Jess Dunbar and Matt Price, of X-Factor fame, sang Justin Bieber’s Anyone as Erin Holland walked down the aisle.
Erin Holland told in an interview after the marriage that it took a long time to get to the point of marriage to assemble all the families and friends in one roof due to the difficult Covid times. The two posted their pictures on social media declaring that they are officially married now.
The diva is actively seen involved in providing aid for the Lilla Community; a remote Indigenous community located in the Northern Territory, Australia. She is also involved with a Variety, the Children’s Charity Make-A-Wish Foundation and is also a for McHappy Day, supporting the Ronald McDonald Charity.
Congratulations to the newly married couple!
