In an interview with 9Honey, David revealed that their first interaction was over beers during his typical Thursday dressing-room drinks.

He asked Lisa if she would like, ā€œBecks or Heineken?ā€

She had asked for a Becks; it was then that he knew that his world would never be the same.

They are celebrating 17 years together this year.

ā€œI was over in Australia with a touring play. We did six weeks in Sydney and six weeks in Melbourne, and the people in my cast were obsessed with Kath and Kim,ā€ Lisa said.

ā€œMagda was in a musical in Melbourne at the time, my friends and I went to see the show Magda was in, and we muscled our way backstage, and we became friends.ā€

A backstage, which of course, was where David had been hanging out and would soon pass her a beer.
