Pregnant Georgie Purcell and her partner Josh Burns put on a loved-up display as they attended the 2025 Midwinter Ball on Wednesday night.
The Victorian Animal Justice MP, 31, was glowing as she arrived to celebrate Canberra’s night of nights in a silk black dress.
Purcell accessorised her look with a pair of purple stilettos and held a black shoulder bag as she held her beau’s hand.
Burns, 37, also looked dapper at the event in a black tuxedo, white buttoned shirt and a bow tie.
He completed his look with black shoes and couldn’t wipe the smile off his face as he posed alongside his girlfriend.
Purcell – a former stripper turned politician – is a Victorian state MP representing the Animal Justice Party (AJP) and Burns is a federal MP with Labor.

The couple stunned their followers by announcing that they are expecting their first child together last month.
Burns posted the good news of the pair’s impending parenthood on Instagram, cuddling up to Purcell as they showed off a positive pregnancy test in a sweet selfie.
‘Georgie and I are so excited to share with you that we’re expecting a baby girl in the very first few days of 2026,’ he wrote in the caption.
‘Our little baby already has the most excited and loving big sister in Tia. And she’ll have a home full of animals, love, and fun,’ he continued.
‘Next year, my team and I will keep working hard for the community we love, but I also plan on being a present and involved dad every step of the way.
‘I’m over the moon excited and can’t wait for this next chapter with my beautiful partner, Georgie, who I love with all my heart.’
The two also showed off their sonogram image, and revealed that they are having a baby girl.
Described as ‘one of the most unlikely political pairings in recent memory’ the romance between the pair, who went public just over a year ago, has garnered attention over their opposing views on key issues like Palestine.

Though they are both from left wing parties, Burns and Purcell’s opposing views on the Middle East have raised many eyebrows.
Burns is Jewish, a Zionist and a very prominent supporter of Israel, while Purcell is a pro-Palestinian activist who is regularly seen at protest marches.
Purcell, a former stripper with multiple tattoos, has over 200,000 followers on Instagram, where she regularly posts about Palestine.
Burns said he and Purcell are able to find common ground on the issue, despite their seemingly distant viewpoints.
‘We agree on so much and we talk about the rest. I respect her and she respects me. We agree on what is important – we want peace and an end to the violence,’ he said.
After going public with their romance, the AJP MP asked for some privacy over her relationship with the rising Labor star.
‘I give more of myself to public life than most politicians, whether it be my past in sex work, my abortion experience or suffering from mental ill health – and it does take a toll,’ she told the Herald Sun.
‘Victorians have a right to judge my policies and my voting record, but all I ask is for some privacy in the parts of my personal life I choose not to share.’
