Sexologist Chantelle Otten is one proud girlfriend ahead of former Australian of the Year Dylan Alcott‘s acting debut.
Alcott is set to star in the fourth season of the Stan Original Series Bump.
Speaking to 9Honey Celebrity on the 2023 ARIA Awards red carpet, Otten gushed she was “so excited to see him act.”

“For Dylan to be going from an athlete, to Australian of the Year, to an actor… I really just think, ‘What can’t he do?'” she said.
“I think it will be singing or DJing next, I’m not sure,” she laughed.
Though she has seen the tennis champ in a short film previously, she is yet to see him in the Stan series, waiting patiently like the rest of us.
“I’m so pumped for him,” she said, adding that she was “so proud” of her partner’s latest venture.

ARIA Awards red carpet: Then and now
Otten made the red carpet look effortless in a stunning cut out gown as she posed alongside Alcott, who wore a white suit. But her look required a lot more effort than what meets the eye.
Despite taking only an hour and a half to get ready for the event on Wednesday, Otten revealed her dress had to be fitted to her.
“My friend, who is my designer, made my dress over the weekend. She had to stitch me into it at 11pm,” Otten said.

“She just fitted it to me but I had to step into it very specifically today,” she explained.
“I’m just very grateful that she’s only 10 minutes down the road.”

While getting into the stunning strappy gown was a group effort, Otten revealed taking the gown off will be a much easier task.
Showing the intricate fastening at the back of the gown, Otten explained she just has to ”undo a few of these ties at the back” to then step out of her ARIA Awards look.
The pair have been dating for four years, after meeting at his book launch in 2018.
