‘This time last week I was in a really dark place. I suffer from extreme anxiety so the thought of trying to plan a wedding, letting people down with their wants and expectations, picking a venue, pleasing everyone, pleasing myself whilst not knowing what I want and trying to budget became so overwhelming,’ she added.

‘At the time my anxiety made me feel so weak. I am completely fine now and we have locked in a venue and I’m finally having fun planning a wedding which I’m so excited about.’

Tayla went on to say she felt the most pressure from herself, and it ’caused great anxiety, nose bleeds, hot flushes, stress rashes, headaches and exhaustion’.

She revealed she dealt with the stress by ‘meditating, going for long walks and also focusing on what will makes Nathan and I happy no one else.’

Tayla continued: ‘Set exact times to think wedding and don’t work on the wedding outside of these times, let go of the expectations, ask for help from professionals and stop talking to everyone about it.’

‘I can’t wait to get married and I’m so glad the “I need to plan an entire wedding in one night'”phase has pi**ed off,’ she said.

‘This is just a reminder that although someone’s life can seem so fun snd exciting over social media, that person can still be having bad days. Be kind.’

Tayla announced the three-time AFL premiership player had proposed at their home in Melbourne last month.

She also posted a video of the moment Nathan proposed on their front porch, which was recorded on their home CCTV system.
