Port Adelaide ruckman Ivan Soldo has splashed out thousands on a luxury designer handbag for his partner Chelsea Becirevic, once again turning heads with their high-profile relationship.
Becirevic, widely known as Australia’s hottest WAG, took to Instagram to show off her new gift: a Prada Bonnie medium leather handbag valued at $4300.
‘Lucky girl,’ she wrote in the caption, tagging her AFL star boyfriend alongside a photo of the handbag and a bouquet of fresh flowers.
The gift didn’t go unnoticed by fans, with the sleek black bag – made from glossy soft leather = catching plenty of attention.
According to the Prada website, the handbag features a refined geometric design and includes leather handles, metal hardware and a detachable shoulder strap.
It also boasts an enameled triangle logo and a centre zip compartment — the kind of bag that blends glamour with everyday luxury.
Soldo and Becirevic’s romance began in 2022 and has grown stronger through trades, relocations, and public scrutiny

Soldo and Becirevic remain one of the AFL’s most talked-about couples off the field
The high-end accessory is the latest glimpse into the couple’s headline-making romance, which began in 2022.
Soldo, a premiership player with Richmond before transferring to Port Adelaide, has been with Becirevic through several ups and downs.
The 204cm ruckman was traded in 2023, prompting Becirevic to move to Adelaide to be with him.
However, she found the move challenging and soon relocated to Dubai in 2024 to take up her dream job as an Emirates flight attendant.
The couple maintained a long-distance relationship throughout that time, navigating time zones and media speculation.
Later that year, Becirevic returned to Australia, citing homesickness and a desire to support Soldo.
They moved in together in Adelaide, with Becirevic continuing her work as an influencer and launching a Fanfix account to share exclusive content.
Despite persistent rumours and public commentary, the couple has denied suggestions she influenced Soldo’s career moves.

Chelsea has defended their relationship from critics, calling out unfair assumptions about her role and intentions
Soldo’s trade decisions, they insist, have always been about football – not relationship pressure.
Becirevic has also been vocal in defending her independence and motives, pushing back against claims she’s with Soldo for his wealth.
‘The idea that I need a man’s money is tired, small-minded and gross,’ she said in a recent post.
Her Instagram account, which boasts more than 84,000 followers, offers curated glimpses of their life together – from match-day moments to stylish outings.
She’s become known for her standout fashion, especially at marquee events like Derby Day, where she consistently ranks among the most photographed partners in the AFL.
In one of her recent videos, she joked about the challenges of dating someone over 6’8′, sharing a clip of herself standing on a chair to reach a glass Soldo had placed on a high shelf.
The light-hearted post added another personal touch to a relationship that has remained firmly in the public eye.
Despite injuries affecting Soldo’s 2024 season, he has continued to support Becirevic’s evolving career.
The handbag gesture appears to be just one way he shows it.
