Congratulations are in order for Sophie Dillman and Patrick O’Connor, who revealed they secretly tied the knot in August!
Taking to Instagram, the actors who played Ziggy and Dean, respectively, on Home and Away, shared a series of pictures from their outdoor wedding.
“01.08.2026- Lovers,” they captioned the snaps.
Fans were quick to share their delight in the comments, including their former soap co-star Lynne McGranger.
“Oh my stars!! Just brilliant!! Thrilled for you both. Wishing you a lifetime of love, laughter and happiness you gorgeous things,” she exclaimed.
In a previous chat with New Idea, the couple joked that they would elope.
“I’ve recently had a few girlfriends wed and seeing them go through all the stress of planning big days… maybe we’ll just elope in Vegas!” Sophie said back in 2023.
“The full Las Vegas Elvis drive-through wedding experience!”
However her now-husband interjected, “I don’t think our families would ever forgive us.”
Speaking to our sister publication TV WEEK, Sophie admitted there were a few “non-negotiables” when it came to planning their wedding.
“We are blessed to have grandparents on both sides that we want to attend,” the bride said.
“We aren’t interested in a traditional kind of ceremony and instead, we want to create a relaxed atmosphere where our guests (and more importantly Paddy and I) feel at ease and ready to have a good time.”
