‘Yay. So good. Congrats,’ gushed Today show co-host Karl Stefanovic.
‘Congratulations to both of you xx,’ added Samantha Armytage.
‘Oh how wonderful!!! Hearty congratulations!!!’ Richard Wilkins chipped in.
The pair went public with their romance in July 2024, just months after the Channel Nine sports presenter ditched her former fiancé Todd Liubinskas.
The loved-up pair finally confirmed their relationship via social media after months of speculation, with the footballer embracing Danika in a photo shared to his Instagram page.
‘My life’s good,’ Liam wrote in the caption, alongside the couple sharing a cuddle.
Danika dumped her ex Todd Liubinskas in September 2023, just three weeks before their planned wedding.
The Daily Mail previously revealed Liubinskas – a personal trainer – later asked Danika to give back her diamond engagement ring because it was a family heirloom.

Danika also kept the $1.5million Maroubra home she shared with her ex-fiancé.
She later confirmed the couple split due to a ‘breakdown in trust.’
‘It certainly was an emotional rollercoaster,’ she told News Corp.
‘When someone hurts you like that, you experience all the emotions from sadness to shock to anger. But sometimes you just have to get through it.
‘You’ve got no option, really… people would ask me, ‘Are you OK?’ And I’d say, ‘Not right now, but I will be.’
She also sought professional help at the time to help pick up the pieces – and soon met her Knight in shining armour.
After Liam agreed to terms with the English team Hull FC in March, the couple began a long-distance relationship – and they have since enjoyed getaways together overseas at every opportunity.
