Despite being from other ends of the planet, the pair have made their relationship work over here in Buckinghamshire, where Will is from.
And, while they sent the rumour mill into overdrive when they enjoyed a trip Down Under recently, it appears the pair won't be settling down there anytime soon.
In an exclusive interview with The Sun, Jessie revealed the surprise reason why, as she gave the lowdown on their next steps ahead of their one year anniversary.
The personal trainer confessed: "House hunting is a lot harder than we anticipated.

"We've been searching for a few months now, and it is really important to us that we do find the right property.
"And I think the more you look, it's like, the more opportunities you find, and it's always a little bit overwhelming, just, like, trying to find the right place.
"So, house hunting is still full underway. We're doing all of our research.
"We're at a little bit of a disadvantage as I'm from Australia, and we've not left the farm really, so we don't really know what areas are good to look in.

"But, you know, we're trying our hardest and it's still happening. So we're very excited about it, though. It's all part of the journey."

When asked if she could see herself and Will heading to Oz, Jessie said: "Will actually really wants to go to Australia. He wants to go there so bad.
"But, you know, I worked so hard to get my visa here. So I said to Will, 'Let's make a deal. Let's stay here till my visa expires, and then we can have a little thing.'
"It's for two years, but if I would like to, I can extend it for three years."
On where they might be headed in the meantime, Jessie explained: "At the moment, we are looking to move closer to the city.
"So, I think when we went to Australia earlier this year, Will absolutely loved apartment life, and he said it's one of his bucket list things to do, to move to a city.
"So we decided, why not? We'll try city life, see how we like it. It doesn't have to be a forever thing, but we'll give it a crack."
Jessie originally shot to fame on the second series of Love Island Australia in 2019.
Since her stint on the UK version last year, she has managed to use her new found fame to raise awareness for some important topics.
Last year, the reality star revealed that she was spiked while out with Will in Chicago.
Now, Jessie is an ambassador for Stamp Out Spiking - and wants people to start speaking out if it has ever happened to them.
Speaking about their work, Jessie explained: "We are doing as much research as we can to kind of get the information because I think there's a bit of a gap in the system.
"We've put up some surveys and we've got some really interesting statistics, like 87% people who have been spiked have left it unreported.
"Most people between the ages of 18 and 24 have either experienced it or witnessed it or know someone who has.
"So it's like we're getting all these these statistics that we can kind of go forward and put out on the table and let people know that this is a real thing.
"This is a real issue, and we're working as hard as we can to get changed. But it is a long process.
"We can do it in between, is continue to raise awareness and comfort anyone that has been through those similar things.
