Still crazy for you! HAYLEY'S BEST EVER GAMBLE

The radio star's whirlwind romance still leaves her walking on air

- Rebekah Hebenton

Deciding to marry someone after just 12 weeks might sound like a reckless gamble. But for The Hits Days radio host Hayley Bath, it turned out to be the safest bet she's ever made.

A decade later, with three children, countless memories and plenty of laughter between them, she and her husband Chris are as smitten as ever.

"We're still crazy for each other and pine after each other when one of us goes away," she smiles. "He's so genuine and lovely, and we became best friends. We thought, 'Let's go for it and hope it works out.' And it did!"

At the end of 2014, Hayley went to watch a rugby game at a friend's house, not knowing she was about to meet the man of her dreams. She casually asked a mate what the devices on the backs of the players' jerseys were, when a handsome British chap chimed in to explain that they were GPS trackers.

She laughs, "Chris told me a year later he'd been looking at me all night, trying to find a way into the conversation. When he heard me ask the question, he quickly googled it and then slid in."

Over the following weeks, they kept bumping into each other through mutual friends. Chris, a 43-year-old builder, found out Hayley was joining a quiz fundraiser, so he got himself onto a team just to make her a wager.
