Belle Geros and her husband Darren have just finished building their 'forever' home in Narrabeen in Sydney's northern beaches. The interior expert - who 'meticulously designed and project managed' their dream beach home - has been sourcing one-of-a-kind furniture and homewares from Bali. During her recent trip, she 'foolishly' brought her husband along to help her choose items for their stunning new home. 'I regularly source furniture and homewares from Bali so I took him along... It was a huge mistake,' Belle told Daily Mail. As the couple walked past a store, Darren spotted something he 'absolutely loved': a 2.8-metre petrified teak shark, crafted from 'beautiful' wood. 'Designing our forever home has been my pride and joy and I'm very proud of how beautiful it is. So when I saw this monstrosity, I panicked,' Belle said. Belle instantly knew her husband would want the giant shark for their home after she spotted the wooden sculpture first. Belle Geros has learnt the hard way never to take her husband furniture shopping after he purchased a 2.8-metre petrified teak shark, crafted from 'beautiful' wood, in Bali 'My husband Darren loves beautiful wood and he loves sharks so I tried to distract him but it was all too late,' she explained. 'I kept telling him it wouldn't go with the house aesthetically and there's no way over my dead body is that going in our house. 'I realised this is going to end in disaster.' There was nothing Belle could do to convince her husband not to buy the $1,000 teak petrified-wood shark - now dubbed Bruce. 'He said he was entitled to at least one thing in the house,' she said. 'It's a bit like a sculpture and is actually, in fact, a piece of beautiful craftsmanship - but I wouldn't admit that to him.' Five weeks later, the shark was delivered to their doorstep. 'So needless to say it's here,' Belle said. 'I did consider divorce but I love the house too much - and him. 'Apparently we're the only Australians to have it - geez I wonder why.' The couple have since come to an agreement on the shark's 'final resting place' The couple have since come to an agreement on the shark's 'final resting place'. 'There were suggestions to hang it above the dining room table so I had to put my foot down,' Belle said. 'It's now in the garden overlooking the beach. Passersby look at us with either disgust or high five my husband. 'I'm not sure what's worse.' As for the couple's dogs, Belle joked: 'They are a tad jealous of all the attention that Bruce is getting.' Belle shared the amusing video on TikTok showing the wooden shark sculpture that her husband arranged to have shipped from Bali to Australia. 'It almost caused a divorce, but apparently he's allowed to have a say in the house,' she said. 'I'm coming to terms with it... but it's killing me.' She added: 'The death of my beautifully designed house - lesson learnt, never take your husband furniture shopping.' Her video has been viewed more than 85,000 times - with many divided. 'It's the ugliest thing I've ever seen,' one said, laughing, to which Belle responded: 'Yep it's not pretty.' 'Looks perfect for the front yard, right on the boundary by the street. Would be a shame if someone took it...' another shared. 'OMG I thought, it can't be that bad! But it was worse than anyone could imagine,' one said, laughing hysterically. 'I'm not going to lie, that's the best petrified teak shark I have ever seen,' one added. 'Such a special sculpture... deserves its very own house very far away where your husband can admire it daily,' another joked. There was nothing Belle could do to convince her husband not to buy the almost three-metre teak petrified-wood shark - now dubbed Bruce The shark sculpture now sits in the garden overlooking the stunning beach of Narrabeen While one suggested: 'Rookie error. Should've paid the customs guys to confiscate it.' Many said the shark looked 'perfect' in the garden -with some suggesting Belle wouldn't 'even notice it in a week'. 'It actually doesn't look too bad in the garden but my question is why does it have to be so menacing? I know sharks are scary but the teeth really put you on edge,' one said, laughing. 'You're the best wife,' another shared. 'I am so relieved it isn't inside. Bruce is growing on me,' one revealed. 'I like it and it is so in the right place,' another added. Meanwhile, many wives revealed the random objects their husbands brought home. 'And I thought I had problems with a framed Rabbitohs picture,' one joked. 'I feel you. My husband came home with a dragon statue from Bali that was not a good one but he loved it. Anyway, it met a sad demise at customs coming back home because they found a tiny hole that they thought could have been a borer of some sort and he decided to surrender it. I've never laughed harder,' another shared. 'If it's any consolation, our backyard is full of medieval dragon statues,' one revealed. 'My ex-husband bought an eight-foot fiberglass great white shark for our rumpus room. I was very happy when he gave it to his mate for the pool area after it wouldn't fit,' another said. 'I actually love the shark. My husband had his motorcycle on display in our house for a while,' one added. Elsewhere, a woman revealed she had to do 'unspeakable things' to convince her husband to 'relinquish' his collection of taxidermied animals.
