It's likely that any couple would tear their hair out after spending weeks on end racing across a continent, joined at the hip, with no escape. But for engaged couple Rob Mills and Georgie Tunny, their latest stint on The Amazing Race Australia: Celebrity Edition has only brought them closer together.

The pair, who are competing on screen by travelling through Asia in support of the Australian Children’s Music Foundation, described the experience as both gruelling and exciting.

Their love story began in 2018, when Mills slipped into the journalist's Instagram direct messages after spotting her on TV. "I had been living the single life and going on lots of horrible Tinder dates," Mills told the The Sydney Morning Herald in 2020. "Then one morning I flicked on ABC News Breakfast and went, 'Who is that?!'"

That initial spark quickly picked up heat. The couple now share a life together in Melbourne and have plans to walk down the aisle after getting engaged in 2022.
