“20 years married and after the highs, the lows and lots of in between …. still a lot of love and so much more to explore together with this handsome rooster!” she wrote on Instagram.

Despite these “highs” and “lows,” Georgie instantly had the “gut feeling” that Tim was the man for her.

“There was an instant physical attraction… something there that just cut through immediately.”

The pair collided when Georgie just so happened to attend a friend’s birthday party at a Sydney pub, the friend just so happened to be Tim’s friend too.

“It was just, it was effortless,” she said.

“We spoke the same language and from a very early stage (I think it came from him having a dog) I could see he was a carer. He was just so kind and that was really important to me.”

Four months into their relationship, Tim dropped to one knee and asked Georgie for her hand in marriage.

Speaking to the Australian’s Women’s Weekly, Georgie revealed it “felt right” with Tim.

“He’s just a really kind, generous guy. He’s quite shy but self-assured. Fiercely intelligent, and he always has my back,” she said.

Georgie has two children.
