During his victory speech, Mr Anthony thanked his partner for coming into his life and for sharing this journey with him. Since then, Jodie has been sky-high in the internet.

While there’s still time to see how Jodie Haydon will adapt to her new role as Australia’s ‘First Lady,’ let’s know everything about her.

How did Jodie Haydon meet Anthony Albanese?

Jodie Haydon met Anthony Albanese in early 2020 at an event in Melbourne, where Anthony had been speaking.

When Anthony asked the audience whether there were any South Sydney rugby league supporters, Jodie yelled out, which caught the attention of the now-Prime Minister of Australia.

Later, Anthony introduced himself to Jodie and learned that she lived in his electorate. The two eventually ended to have a drink at the Young Henrys brewery in Newton. Though neither was looking for a relationship at the time, they couldn’t stop themselves from falling for each other.

The couple went public with a lovely photoshoot and accompanying feature in the March edition of The Australian Women’s Weekly.
