Ellidy Pullin shares passive-aggressive response as she enjoys lavish European yacht holiday with her new fiancé - after Chumpy Pullin's dad calls for her to change her last name

3 weeks ago 23

Ellidy Pullin appeared to share a passive-aggressive response to Chris Pullin on Thursday as she celebrated her engagement on a yacht in Europe. 

The influencer, 33, gained fame when her snowboard champion partner Alex 'Chumpy' Pullin died aged 32 in a spearfishing accident in 2020, and she went on to harvest his sperm posthumously and become pregnant with his child.

She has since become estranged from Chumpy's father Chris, and has now shared a telling post on Instagram after he called for her to change her last name when she gets married to her new beau Brock Wadsworth.

Ellidy shared a reel of images from her luxury holiday in Europe with friends, which she embarked on just days after Brock popped the question to her last Wednesday less than a year after they went public with their relationship.

The gallery opened with a group photo of herself and Brock cuddling up on a yacht with her four-year-old daughter Minnie Alex Pullin.

'Minding my own bloody business and being stoked on life with my people, everyone should try it,' Ellidy captioned the reel of photos.

Ellidy was all smiles as she enjoyed some fun in the sun with a merry band of friends on the back of a boat in the Mediterranean Sea.

She was joined by close friend Chloe Fisher, and her music producer husband FISHER, as well as DJ Richy Penny and his wife Jaynee. 

Also among the group of friends was Ellie Malouf – the CEO of superyacht charter brokerage Ahoy Club.  

It comes after the father of late snowboard champion Chumpy broke his silence on Ellidy's engagement to new partner Brock, revealing his fears for the couple's future and why he believes she'll never stop using his son's last name.

At one point in his talk with the Daily Mail, Chris said he 'hated' that she continued to use his family's last name, and wishes she would change it to 'Wadsworth' when she gets married.

'She is a Pullin, but she's not. They weren't married. I hate it, but what do I do? All I can say is, "What would Chumpy think about that?"' he said. 

'It annoys me because it's out of our control. The Pullin family is very much still in existence. There are about 30 of us. 

'She has no relationship with any of us other than my daughter [Chumpy's sister].'

Ellidy was in a long-term relationship with Chumpy until his accidental death aged 32 in a spearfishing accident at Palm Beach on the Gold Coast in July 2020.

Chumpy suffered a shallow-water blackout and was found unresponsive on the ocean floor by a fellow diver.

His devastated girlfriend harvested his sperm posthumously, then changed her surname from Vlug to Pullin via deed poll, despite never marrying him.

Ellidy once had Chris and his wife Sally's full support – but in the years since the birth of Chumpy's daughter Minnie, now four, the relationship has brutally fractured.

Chris previously claimed to the Daily Mail that Ellidy had 'blocked' the family on social media and did not contact him either after the death of his wife Sally from central nervous system lymphoma in April 2025.

She did, however, post a gushing tribute to Sally weeks after her death, a gesture that remains a sore point with Chris, who says he never received any private condolences.

Last Wednesday, Ellidy announced her engagement to Gold Coast builder Brock, less than a year after going public with the relationship and six years after Chumpy's death.

'He wants to be stuck with me forever!' she declared.

Ellidy first introduced contractor Brock to fans on her popular podcast Darling, Shine! in November.

She told listeners how she had fallen for a longtime friend but initially worried about how the public might react, admitting she felt a mixture of joy and guilt.

'I'm just so happy right now, and I'm really enjoying the feelings and the emotions and falling in love with Brock and having this new love,' she said.

'I feel guilty saying that because, obviously, there were so many times where I just thought it would just be Chump and I forever.

'It would have been, but he passed away… I'm young, I'm never going to be alone forever. I didn't make a rash decision. I sat on this for pretty much a whole year, and I'm really stoked with where I am with him right now. It's f**king epic.'

The Daily Mail has reached out to Ellidy for comment.
