Stephen met his soulmate, Bridgette Sneddon while studying at the University of Western Sydney and have been in a relationship since 2005.
On March 7, 2014, Stephen got down on one knee and asked Bridgette for her hand. She said yes of course.
A few months later on December 24, 2014 the pair exchanged vows in a private wedding ceremony – a day which Stephen has described as the “best day” of his life.

Stephen is a first time dad to a little girl.

In mid-2023, speculation grew regarding Stephen’s family life after our sister site New Idea obtained images of Bridgette with a baby girl in Broken Hill, NSW. The location where Stephen’s new series, RFDS is being filmed.
In the images, the little blonde girl was protected from the cold weather in a purple tracksuit and white puffer jacket. While we still don’t know her name, the child was wearing a pink beanie which the letter ‘O’ knitted on it. Could her name begin with ‘O’?
It’s believed the girl was born sometime in 2022. But it took until August 2023 for Stephen to openly talked about fatherhood.
“You take it in your stride,” he confessed on being a first-time dad.
“It’s a bit less sleep but it is all good.”
We are thrilled to discover that Stephen is living a quite family life, and while we cannot wait to know more, we will be patient.
