“Your parents are already obsessed with you and you aren’t even here yet. 🤍🤍

The announcement comes after Ms Higgins married Mr Shiraz on the Gold Coast in early June.

The pair got engaged on New Year’s Eve in 2022 in Byron Bay.

The pair first met in 2020, when Mr Sharaz was working as a producer for Karl Stefanovic’s brother Pete on his Sky News breakfast program.

Mr Sharaz was instantly smitten, having previously described watching the “beautiful” Ms Higgins walk through the door of a Parliament House television studio.

On the day of their wedding, Mr Sharaz had shared the funny exchange between him and his future bride long before they started dating.

He revealed he had accidentally sent a photo of Ms Higgins by the famous ‘budget tree’ in a Parliament House courtyard from her Instagram account back to her, when he was trying to send it to a friend.

Commenting on a photo of Ms Higgins, Mr Sharaz wrote: “Love this photo. But mainly the tree.”

In the caption in June, Mr Sharaz wrote: “Accidentally sent a girl I had a crush on … photo of herself.”

“Few years later we’re getting married! Romcoms do exist.”
