Olympia Valance is set to expand her career after becoming the ambassador for luxury Australian beauty line Robe Haircare.
The former Neighbours star, 31, revealed the exciting news on Instagram, as she shared a gallery of jaw-dropping photos in which she flaunted her luscious brunette locks.
The Melbourne-born stunner exuded confidence and style in the breathtaking pictures, as she showcased how the products gave her tresses that extra oomph.
Olympia, who recently announced her pregnancy with ex-AFL star husband Thomas Bellchambers, told 9Honey she was thrilled to collaborate with the brand, which was founded by her close friend, celebrity stylist Lauren Mackellar.
‘This has been her dream, she has been talking about creating these products since I’ve known her. No one believes in this product more than I do,’ Olympia began.
She added she chose to work with the brand because she fully believed in its products, which helped give her hair a glowing and radiant sheen.
‘Robe has something for literally every hair type. The tonic rejuvenates hair, I put the leave-in all over my hair and then I put the leave-in overnight, my hair feels like silk. Robe girl through and through’
The brunette bombshell also posted a cheeky comment to Instagram, thanking the Robe photographer for ‘hiding the pregnancy’ throughout the shoot.

Olympia is expecting her first child with husband Thomas Bellchambers and announced her joyous pregnancy news in an Instagram post last month while candidly opening up about her fertility struggles before her ‘miracle baby’ came along.
In photos shared to her social media account, Thomas, 35, cradled Olympia’s growing baby bump as she held a positive pregnancy test.
‘I’ve been hiding away for the past 5 and a half months to make sure this wasn’t all a dream,’ she began in her caption.
‘But you kept growing and growing and it’s starting to look like our dreams have finally come true.’
‘I’ve been as open and honest as I could about our struggles with infertility and I truly believed that this day wasn’t going to be possible for us. So when I saw this positive pregnancy test I have to admit, at the time, I wasn’t jumping for joy.

‘I was full of fear because that’s all I’ve known. But as the weeks kept going by it was hard to wipe the smile off our faces.’
The former Neighbours star noted her excitement of starting a family while thanking their supporters who stood by them during their ‘darkest days’.
‘To the little one we never thought we’d meet, we can’t wait to hold you in our arms. You were worth every tear, every setback, and every prayer,’ she continued.
‘To all the people who supported us through the darkest days, thank you. I know I wouldn’t have made it to this point without the strength of my family and friends who managed to hold me up when I was falling apart.’
Olympia also paid tribute to families who have experienced fertility issues or pregnancy loss.
‘It is also incredibly important for me to recognise that although this is the best news in the world for Thomas and I, my heart aches for anyone that sees this and feels pain,’ she said.
‘It was so hard for me to write this because it feels like I’m caught between two worlds. It’s not an easy road and I wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy. It’s one hell of an emotional roller coaster.
‘Stay strong, keep fighting, but most importantly don’t forget to be kind to yourself.’
In May, the former soap star said the lengthy IVF process left her worn out and she reached a low point following a tragic miscarriage.
‘My body was exhausted and my mind was spent,’ she said in an interview with The Daily Telegraph.

‘I’ve always been an outgoing, happy person and found myself becoming a hermit. I needed a full reset.
In July 2023, Olympia revealed that she miscarried twin babies during the Covid pandemic and later that year revealed she had a second miscarriage at six weeks.
She said she was reluctant to ‘go down the IVF path’ as she has ‘never been good with hormones’.
‘Adding more hormones to my raging cycle scares the s**t out of me,’ she confessed, but said she was not seeing a fertility specialist.
‘I want babies and I will do everything in my power to get them,’ Olympia concluded.
