Melbourne’s Booby Tape co-founder Bridgett Roccisano has announced her split from husband Joshua Cavallaro just weeks after welcoming their daughter Elle in late April. The news shocked fans, as the couple had appeared deeply in love during their lavish 2023 wedding, covered by the Daily Mail.
Bridgett, whose fashion tape brand is sold globally, shared her heartbreak on social media, stating she was “devastated and disappointed” that her marriage “hadn’t unfolded the way I envisioned.” While the exact reasons for the split remain private, a dive into Joshua’s Instagram reveals a recurring theme: golf.

Posts show Joshua on the green multiple times in recent months—eighteen holes eight weeks ago, another round three weeks later, and a cigar-and-beer outing with friends just weeks after Elle’s birth. Meanwhile, Bridgett likely navigated newborn duties, from sleepless nights to postpartum recovery.

Amanda, the article’s author, draws parallels to Princess Diana’s famous quote about her marriage’s “third party,” humorously noting that here, it might be a “nine-iron.” While not accusing Joshua of neglect, she questions the imbalance in post-baby responsibilities. Many new mothers, she argues, face similar struggles—juggling childcare alone while partners resume hobbies or trips.
The piece references celebrity trainer Jono Castano, who split from model Simone Holtznagel nine weeks after their daughter’s birth, reportedly due to “incompatible lifestyles” after he traveled solo.

Amanda stresses this isn’t about vilifying fathers but addressing a broader pattern. While some dads fully engage, others treat early parenthood as a “breezy gap year,” leaving mothers overwhelmed. She praises Bridgett’s resilience, noting her rise from financial struggle to global success, and offers solidarity: “You’ve got this.”

The article closes by acknowledging social media’s curated nature but urges empathy for mothers navigating unequal burdens. Bridgett’s story, while unique, resonates with many—a reminder that partnership requires shared effort, especially in parenthood’s exhausting early days.
