There’s nothing like a celebrity throwback to get us feeling nostalgic. And on Friday, Gogglebox stars Matt and Kate Dalton took us all the way back to 1995.
The couple, who star on the show alongside their daughters Millie and Holly, celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary today.
To mark the momentous occasion, Gogglebox shared a throwback photo of Matt and Kate in the 1990s when they were in their twenties.

Holly and Millie also shared the photo to their Dalton family Instagram page, writing: “27 years married. Happy anniversary mum and dad.”
The couple were introduced at a mutual friend’s wedding in 1991, where Kate left a lasting impression on Matt.
“Kate had one of those croquembouche-type hairstyles with layer upon layer. I thought she had a turban on!” Matt told New Idea in 2019.

“I had just finished a relationship with my previous boyfriend the night before the wedding, and so the last thing I was thinking about was starting another relationship. It was very unexpected.”
As for the couple’s first date, it was “quite bizarre at the time,” Matt admitted.
“I was a secondary school teacher and each term I would take the Year 9 boys out to McDonald’s and to the cinema,” he said.
“I thought that a non-threatening first date for Kate would be to bring her along to one of those evenings. So, Kate joined me, along with 30 Year 9 boys, at McDonald’s and to watch City Slickers.”
Three years later, Matt asked Kate to be his wife in equally memorable style.
On March 18, 1995, the couple tied the knot, celebrating their nuptials at Melbourne’s Botanical Hotel.
