Wiggle couple sell in Wollstonecraft

Wiggle couple sell in Wollstonecraft
Title TattleDecember 7, 2020

Lachlan Gillespie, The Wiggle who wears the purple skivvy, and the Yellow Wiggle, Emma Watkins have snappily sold their Wollstonecraft apartment.

The married couple are trading up, with many fans believing Watkins is pregnant following a mere Instagram post of the pair which read 'stay tuned'.

The reports of a baby Wiggle, however exciting, remain unconfirmed. Watkins' recent Instagram post shows a video of her dancing an Irish jig.

Even the sale price has not been confirmed by the ultra private couple,

Gillespie and Watkins have called the 1896 converted English-style manor apartment home four three years - around a year after they began dating.

They paid $1,395,000 in 2014 with the couple's relationship only becoming public knowledge in 2015.

The Shirley Road offering came with a $1.9 million to $2.09 million price guidance through Stone Real Estate Lane Cove agent Desiree Hough, who had it on the market for just 12 days before its sale.

She said they decided to sell the home as they are travelling and touring extensively for work, and do not spend enough time at home to enjoy the 184 sqm apartment.

The heritage late Federation mansion was named Ben Ledi, presumably in reference to the mountain in Perthshire, Scotland.

It comes with stained glass windows - one etched with the building's construction date. 

It was 2012 when Jeff Fatt - of "Wake up Jeff" fame - handed over his purple skivvy to Gillespie at the same time as Emma joined the gang.

The Wiggles have been entertaining children for 26 years.

PS The stay tuned posting likely related to the release of Emma’s Bowtiful Ballet Studio — new merchandise she hopes will encourage kids to be more active.
