NYC Trip Becomes The Most Memorable Vacation For Steve Smith And His Girlfriend Dani Willis

The Story:

Australia skipper Steve Smith, who is currently on a short vacation in New York, recently did something very special for his girlfriend Dani Willis. The 28-year-old cricketer has decided to take his relationship with long-time girlfriend and made a grand announcement on Instagram.

“Ready To Get Walk Down The Aisle”

The Australia skipper surprised his partner Willis with a ‘big rock.’ A surprised Willis couldn’t have asked for more and gave an instant ‘yes’ as her answer.

“Today I got down one knee and @dani – willis said YES @ Top Of The Rock NYC,” Smith wrote, followed by the hashtag #engaged.

“The Love Affair”

Willis is a Law Student at Macquarie University and has accompanied the shy Smith for the last six years since 2011. The couple met at a bar during the first season of the Big Bash League. The meeting happened after an amusing plea from then skipper Michael Clarke, who posted a tweet urging suitable singles to become a date Steve Smith for the Allan Border Medal Night.

Although Clarke did not play any kind of a match-maker. His tweet did bring some luck for the upcoming cricketer back then. Ironically, the engagement rumours were also sparked earlier this year after the couple strolled down the Allan Border Medal red carpet. Smith went to New York following a European vacation after Australia’s early exit from the ICC Champions Trophy. He also went to watch the New York Yankees’ match.

Mutual Support

Smith has been very grateful to her. The leading lady of his life has been huge support for him. According to the cricketer, she has played a huge role in his development as a sportsman.

“She has been amazing. She’s always there for me when I’m around. She always gives me good advice and tells me the truth. It’s nice that you have some honest feedback to come home to all the time. She’s been terrific for me over the last few years.”
