In an interview withWomen’s Health,the Peloton instructor disclosed that while she is cancer-free, she wants to be able to “trust her body” before diving into organizing the couple’s big day.
“One thing that comes before anything else — before Ben and I start planning a wedding, before anything [else] happens — I want to believe to my core that I can trust my body again,” she told the outlet. “That’s my main goal — to just say it and believe it.”
The fitness star began chemotherapy treatment for 12 weeks last fall, andcontinued to teach three to four Peloton classes a week— without disclosing her diagnosis to her followers and riders.
“I didn’t just want to feel like a cancer patient all the time, which is what I felt like most of the time,” she explained toWomen’s Health.
“We wanted to find our own feet in our relationship before we started allowing the public to be aware of it,” Alldis told PEOPLE in a July interview. ByAug. 2021, the pair was engaged.

“We didn’t know each other before Peloton. We were the two British people in New York [where the company is headquartered]," he said.
Alldis explained that, at the time, “We both took quite big jumps. I moved from finance to fitness. She stopped being a professional dancer and went into this . . . Peloton in the U.K. wasn’t really a brand, so we were just thrown in the deep end.”
Because of that, they “became super close as friends and then it just started to slowly grow. But, at the same time, we wanted to be respectful of the brand, so we kept it quiet for a little while.”
