Lisa Wilkinson paid tribute to her beloved husband Peter FitzSimons on Father’s Day.
The TV star shared a post on Instagram on Sunday in which she enjoyed a fancy lunch with Peter, 63.
In the caption she wrote: “Happy Father’s Day to my favorite dad. Our absolute rock.”
The TV star donned a trendy cowboy hat for the outing, paired with a white T-shirt under a black blazer.
She completed the look with a pair of cream-colored pants and loads of gold accessories.
Lisa previously expressed her joy at “defying the people who said they wouldn’t last” after walking down the aisle in 1992, nine months after they met.
“When Pete and I met on Christmas Day in 1991, there were many, including my sweet and protective mother, who said we wouldn’t last,” she said in an Instagram post.
“We continue to challenge those who thought we couldn’t make it.”

This comes after news that Lisa wants to return to television screens after months of inaction and five tedious weeks spent in court, sources say.
The Channel 10 star and former darling of morning TV is looking forward to giving more “hit interviews” in the New Year, friends told the Weekend Australian.
Wilkinson left The Project last November and, despite remaining on Ten’s payroll until the end of 2024, has not appeared on the channel for over a year.
Despite her lengthy hiatus from the network, Wilkinson has remained in the public eye through her role in a highly publicized defamation trial.

Lisa made a rare red carpet appearance at the opening night of Sunset Boulevard in Sydney on Saturday.
She was involved in a case with Bruce Lehrmann, who was suing Network 10 and Wilkinson over an interview with Brittany Higgins that aired on The Project and online.
In the last five weeks of the court’s sitting year, the defamation case has been before the court. Judge Lee has reserved his decision on the matter.
Wilkinson’s friends say his court appearances have worked in his favour by providing the TV star with “a steady stream of publicity”.
“Yes, it’s been off the air for a while, but I don’t think anyone has forgotten it,” said former Seven and Nine executive Peter Meakin. Australian weekend.
“I’m sure his loyal fans will remain loyal to him.”
Network Ten says it is in talks to develop “further projects” with Wilkinson.
