It’s the season of Bachelor throwbacks, with many successful couples from the franchise celebrating the anniversaries of their finales.
The latest to celebrate is Georgia Love, who picked Lee Elliott at the end of her 2016 season of The Bachelorette.
The season two leading lady posted a photo of the couple embracing in their final moments on the show, as well as a meme about how her hair turned out on the night.
“Five years since this night 🌹❤️ 4am on a rooftop in Singapore surrounded by literally thousands of flowers, finally telling you I loved you, exhausted, crying, nervous and with the worst hair anyone’s ever sported on TV 😂 (thanks, humidity),” she penned.
“I love you, @leeroyelliott. Can you believe these two babies got married!?!!” she finished.
The TV journalist also shared a meme, nodding to her hairstyle on the night, which was ruined by the humidity in the Singapore setting.
Georgia and Lee married in March this year after having to delay their wedding twice due to COVID-19 restrictions.
They tied the knot at Frogmore Creek Winery in Tasmania after having to shelve their plans for an Italian wedding.
The journalist stunned in a dress designed by Jason Grech, who coincidentally dressed her the first day she met Lee on The Bachelorette.
Georgia and Lee’s fairytale romance suffered its ups and downs at first, with Georgia tragically losing her mother to pancreatic cancer just days after the finale aired.
“We had a very rocky first six months, I’m not afraid to say that,” the 2016 Bachelorette previously said to Stacey June and Kristie Mercer for The Thinkergirls Pod Channel.
“It was really hard on him, and it was really hard on our relationship.”
However, the iconic couple have shared an amazing life ever since – moving in together in Melbourne, travelling the world, and eventually getting married.
In the finale, Georgia picked Lee over runner-up Matty J, who would go on to find love with Laura Byrne when he was made The Bachelor the following year.
Laura posted her own throwback this week, showcasing Matt’s artistic talents from the first single date they shared on their season.
Last year’s Bachelor winners, Locky Gilbert and Irena Srbinovska also recently celebrated their anniversary, which they have counted down since their own finale.
With current Bachelor Jimmy Nicholson’s season winding down, we’re very excited to see who he might be sharing future anniversaries with!
