Fans have been enamoured with Andy and Alex’s love story for many years. In 2020, MasterChef fans were over the moon when learning that Andy dropped to one knee and popped the question in New Zealand.

“I drove down to what I was told was a nice secluded beach,” Andy previously revealed to TV Week.

“But when we got there, there were more than 300 people on the beach, and the only free spot I could find was next to a couple of 16-year-olds violently pashing. It was the least romantic spot ever!”

Troubles aside, they officially tied the knot in October 2022. The beautiful wedding ceremony was held at Terrara House in New South Wales.
