Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and his fiancé Jodie Haydon are the picture of a loved-up power couple.
But what you may not know is how their union came to be, starting with three surprising words that kicked everything off in 2020.
It was about 18 months after the prime minister's first marriage to former deputy premier of New South Wales, Carmel Tebbutt, ended, and he wasn't exactly looking for love.
Jodie was in the crowd at an event he was speaking at and neither of them expected sparks to fly.
Until one sentence changed everything.
"Jodie yelled out, 'Up the Rabbitohs', is how we met, when I went round the tables," the prime minister told 60 Minutes.
Jodie had been single for some time before meeting 'Anthony', as she calls him. The pair ran into each other a week later and Jodie could see a spark.
She followed it, sending Albanese, who was then the Opposition Leader and her local member, a private message on social media.
She was rewarded for the ballsy move.
"The message that Jodie sent me was that we had a lot in common, South Sydney, support for the Labor Party. And I sent a message back saying, 'Yep, but what's your position on craft beer?' So we met up at Young Henry's in Newtown for a beer on a Friday afternoon, and we just got on," Alabense said.
And as Jodie said, "the rest is history".
