The couple have been married since 1999.

But the years certainly don't seem to have dulled their romance and they have often posted sweet messages about each other on big days, such as birthdays and anniversaries.

Both took to social media to pay tribute to each other earlier this month when they reached 22 years of marriage.

David, 46, shared a series of snaps of the couple from over the years, showing how often they had dressed alike.

“22 years later, still matching outfits,” he wrote with a laughing emoji.

“Happy anniversary love u so much and thank you for giving me our amazing kids so we can all wear the same.”
