Lara Bingle has added fuel to the rumour that she has tied the knot with Sam Worthington.

Bingle changed her name on Instagram today, adding the Rockingham star’s surname to her own to become Lara Bingle Worthington.

Rumours began back in January that Bingle and Worthington had secretly tied the knot after the model’s friend Vicki Lee posted a shot of an idyllic beach wedding set-up.

Bingle was pictured in the background and the photograph was captioned: “Here comes the bride, all dressed in bikini.”

The speculation persisted all year, fuelled by a further series of snaps that showed the two stars wearing bands on their ring fingers.

The couple have also been the topic of countless tabloid stories in recent months over rumours that Bingle is expecting a child.

But the model and her beau are yet to publicly comment on the speculation.

In September the beauty removed all photos of Worthington from her Instagram account as he wasn’t a fan of social-media.

She also slowed right down on all her own social-media posts and hinted it might be because of her lack of privacy in the public eye.

“I think there’s no mystery any more,” Bingle said in a magazine interview. “Everyone knows everything . . . sometimes it’s nice to not know things.”
