Sylvia and Pete, who is the younger brother of former Today Show presenter Karl Stefanovic, first met in 2014 when they were both hosting Weekend Today over the summer holidays.

โ€œThat was the first time we met face to face and it was soon after that that we started courting,โ€ Sylvia told The Sydney Morning Herald in 2016.

โ€œWe sort of bumped into each other in a car park at Channel 9 one day before we started hosting together โ€ฆ I think it was pretty obvious, certainly was to everyone around me โ€“ my mum and my sister, in particular, knew that there was something there.โ€

The couple dated for a few years before Pete proposed while the pair were on holidays in France in 2016.

Having a family was always on the cards for the couple, who have both since left Today, following the months of negative publicity brought on by Karlโ€™s high profile divorce from his wife Cassandra Thorburn and the Ubergate scandal.

In 2017 Sylvia told The Australian Womenโ€™s Weekly she and Pete were keen to start their family and intend to raise their children in the same spirit with which they were raised โ€“ with lots of sun, sea and surf.

โ€œWeโ€™d love a house full of kids,โ€ she revealed.

โ€œOur hope is that down the track, we could have a house on the Gold Coast so that our kids can have the same experiences with their cousins that we both had as kids with our cousins.โ€

Pete has also spoken about his desire to start a family with his beautiful wife.

โ€œItโ€™s something we both want to do,โ€ the 36-year-old told news.com.auโ€™s Balls Deep podcast in 2018.

He added: โ€œI feel Iโ€™d be missing out if we didnโ€™t have a kid, but weโ€™re both pretty busy with our work at the moment.โ€
