They haven't even been married for a full year, and yet rumours have emerged that Lauren Phillips' marriage to Lachlan Spark may already be over.
And on Thursday, the 27-year-old TV presenter fueled the whispers by failing to mention her husband while thanking her nearest and dearest for their support ahead of her hip surgery.
Sharing a photograph of herself in a hospital bed, the brunette beauty penned a reflective note about ending the year.

'Huge thanks to the team @stvincentsprivate for getting this emotional mess through the past few days,' Lauren added.
The stunner explained that her doctor said she will be ready to bust a move by the end of 2019.

Lauren then went on to gush over her support system, writing: 'Thanks for all the lovely messages and phone calls- I really do have the best mates in the world... Hurry up 2019.'
However, she noticeably did not make mention to her husband Lachlan Spark, with whom she is rumoured to have split recently.
