The couple has been in relationship for almost three years and welcomed their first child, son Wolf, in October 2019.

Jake has previously gushed about the joys of fatherhood as well as spoken candidly about the work involved.

“It’s not an easy road; fatherhood or parenthood. But it’s the most rewarding and beautiful time. I’ve loved every second of it,” he told Daily Mail Australia.

“My days are just consumed with him, and everything that you sort of do for life is about your child now which is great. It’s nice to have that, to have someone else to work towards, apart from yourself.”

Jake and Alice first announced the birth of their son back in October 2019.

“We finally welcomed our little man into the world. Wolf William Ryan,” Alice wrote on Instagram at the time.

“One of the most intense but incredible experiences of my life. So much new found respect for this body and what it has done and continues to do. @jakey__ryan is already super dad status and was the most amazing support to me throughout the whole pregnancy and birth, I couldn’t have done it without him ❤.

“We’re just taking some time to rest and enjoy our little love bubble and new family member. Can’t wait for Wolf to meet all his favourite uncles & aunties soon.”
