After four seasons with the Dragons, Bent signed with the Titans ahead of the 2023 NRLW season, with the pair first starting a long-distance relationship in 2022.

Speaking at the NRL’s Indigenous Round launch on Wednesday, Bent was grateful her relationship was not going to be once again split between Sydney and the Goldy.

“I honestly was so pleased,” she told media of Fifta’s decision to stay at the Titans.

“I’ve moved from Penrith to the Gold Coast — I’d been back and forth from the Dragons. To finally have a year when I’m on the Gold Coast full time and I don’t have to do long distance coming back and forth is so pleasing for me.

“I’m so thankful that we’re both at the Titans this year and hopefully, for me next year as well because my life is up there now.”

Bent is off contract at the end of the upcoming NRLW season which begins on July 25 but always intended to continue her career on the Gold Coast.

“I’m really happy where I am at the Titans and I love my team,” she said.

“The success we had last year — making it to the grand final after coming dead last the year before. So, we’re building something big and I want to be there [for that].

“It’s the same with David, [the Gold Coast] is our home now. We love the community, we love the fans, we love the club and we love our teams.

“We’ve built a life up there so we’re really happy.”
