He affectionately calls it the "Zoe magic" and Hamish Blake fell almost instantly under the spell of the "confident, hilarious, obviously beautiful” Ms Foster when they met, hilariously, at a men's deodorant launch in 2004.
As if straight from a rom-com playbook, the pair, who were dating other people at the time, became so close they even penned a dating book together, Textbook Romance - but still didn't realise they were slowly falling in love until years later.
“It was quite a startling moment because he'd always just been firmly a friend, even brother-like, to the point that when people were like, 'I think you and Hamish would be good together. I'd be like (vomit sound]," Zoe revealed of their friendship-turned-romance. In 2012, they married in a beautiful ceremony with just 22 guests.
Fast forward to 2022 and they've now become one of the country's favourite and funniest partnerships. As the host of Lego Masters, Hamish has cemented himself as one of Aussie TV's most in-demand presenters, while Zoe's beauty brand-turned-empire Go-To rivals that of Kylie Jenner's Kylie Cosmetics.
"Ninety per cent of a kid's diet a should be love." says Hamish.
GO WITH THE FLOW
At the end of this year, the couple will celebrate their 10-year wedding anniversary and no doubt mark the occasion in typical Blake-Foster style with a hilarious but heartfelt message on social media - possibly involving one of Hamish's famous homemade, over-the-top, triumphantly imperfect cake creations. So how do they manage a high-profile marriage and their two young children, Sonny, seven, and Rudy, four?
