The stunning NRL reporter, 33, and the Bankstown Bulldogs player, 29, left Sydney Airport in October on their first major holiday as a couple.

After spending a week in Paris, Danika and Liam traveled to Rome as guests of Sam Burgess at his extravagant wedding to Lucy Graham at Villa Aurelia on Sunday.

The 17th-century baroque villa, situated at the highest point in Rome, offered magnificent views of the city skyline, providing a magical backdrop for their nuptials.

The festivities began with an opulent welcome dinner, where both Sam and Lucy surprised their guests in coordinated black ensembles.

Danika also wore black to the ceremony, showing off her incredible figure in a tight strapless black dress paired with matching black opera gloves and designer sunglasses.

Meanwhile, Liam looked dapper in a beige tuxedo jacket, black trousers and a black bow tie.

The happy couple looked almost as happy as the bride and groom in photos posted on Danika’s Instagram account.

Fans of the NRL Nine sideline reporter flocked to the comments section to say how happy and in love she looks.

It looks like their new relationship is getting serious, and the beloved sports reporter also attended the Bulldogs’ end-of-season awards night last month ahead of her European sojourn.

She and Liam tilted their heads back amid raucous laughter as they posed for a couple photo in their wedding finery.

It wasn’t until October last year that Danika, 33, called off her wedding to personal trainer Todd Liubinskas just three weeks before the couple were due to tie the knot in New South Wales’ Hunter Valley.

The exact reason for the former couple’s separation is still unclear and became a topic of much speculation among football experts and the media.

Their relationship became the talk of rugby league in February when the TV star was first seen packing on the PDA with Liam at a restaurant in Sydney’s Potts Point.

The stunning NRL reporter, 33, and the Bankstown Bulldogs player, 29, left Sydney Airport on October 8 on their first major holiday as a couple.

“Everything French,” Danika captioned her Parisian photo dump shared on Instagram.

A dinner companion told Daily Mail Australia that the couple were hugging during the date in full view of onlookers.

‘Her behavior was that of a relaxed woman enjoying a pre-season fling with a younger specimen; “His was a deer in the headlights,” the diner said.

Danika officially debuted her new romance with Liam in July, just months after dumping her fiancé weeks before getting married.

Since then, they have been sharing many happy photos throughout the year as their romance continues to blossom.

Daily Mail Australia previously revealed that Todd asked Danika to return her diamond engagement ring through a third party because it was a family heirloom.

Danika was a consummate professional during Nine’s broadcast of the 2023 Grand Final shortly after the news broke and was regularly seen smiling and laughing with her co-hosts Andrew Johns and Billy Slater.

In August last year, it was revealed that she will be keeping the $1.5 million Maroubra home she gutted with ex-fiancé Liubinskas.

She has now taken full ownership of the house, following the couple’s dramatic separation last year, three weeks before they were to get married.

Almost a year after their breakup, Danika has refinanced the four-bedroom house in her name, The Daily Telegraph reported.

Meanwhile, her ex Todd has also moved on and appears to still be in love with his new partner, sex book author Helen Chik.
