The spotlight was firmly on Dee Salmin this week as the partner of AFL superstar Darcy Moore made another unforgettable red carpet appearance, this time at Australia's premier music event.
A Second Show-Stopping Appearance
Dee Salmin captured widespread attention on Wednesday evening when she arrived at the prestigious ARIA Awards ceremony held at Sydney's Hordern Pavilion. The 31-year-old ABC personality made a dramatic entrance wearing a striking bright orange and yellow dress, complemented by an eye-catching pair of boots that became an instant talking point among fashion observers.
Her partner, Collingwood Magpies captain Darcy Moore, accompanied her looking sharp in suit trousers, shirt, and tie, though he opted for a more casual jacket to complete his ensemble. Before the star-studded evening began, Salmin shared behind-the-scenes moments with her Instagram followers, including a snapshot of herself wearing a robe and face mask while preparing for the major event.
Continuing the Fashion Momentum
This appearance comes just months after Salmin set social media ablaze with her dramatic strapless white gown at the Brownlow Medal count in September. That particular dress featured a sophisticated keyhole cut-out beneath the bust, prompting numerous fans to comment on its bridal qualities. The response was so overwhelming that many followers directly suggested Moore should propose to his long-time partner.
One social media user perfectly captured the public sentiment, writing: 'Giving wedding vibes just saying' in response to the elegant white ensemble. Moore himself appeared completely smitten on the Brownlow night, publicly declaring on social media: 'I am extremely in love with you.'
Relationship Dynamics and Public Speculation
The fashionable couple have recently returned from an overseas holiday to Bangkok, Thailand, which further fueled engagement rumours among their growing fanbase. The lavish tropical getaway had many speculating that a proposal might be imminent for the high-profile pair.
Salmin, who hosts Triple J radio's The Sunday Hook Up sex education programme, has been remarkably open about her relationship with the premiership-winning Collingwood skipper. During an appearance on the ABC show Ladies, We Need To Talk...Back, she revealed the unconventional approach they've taken to their romance.
'I don't live with my partner at the moment and we have such different, independent, busy lives,' Salmin explained during the candid discussion about modern relationships. She elaborated on their dynamic, noting: 'We get to have so much of what we had when we were still single in our relationship. But I wonder how much you can actually upkeep that when you do end up living together.'
The radio host also expressed thoughtful consideration about traditional relationship patterns, suggesting that 'so much of it is hetero-dynamic learnt behaviours you might fall into' when couples follow conventional paths.
As Salmin continues to make waves with both her fashion choices and her candid discussions about modern romance, public fascination with this influential media personality and her sporting star partner shows no signs of diminishing.
