Simone Warne was left starstruck on Sunday night at a Coldplay concert in London.
The 55-year-old ex-wife of Shane Warne found herself seated next to Karate Kid actor Ralph Macchio, and appeared pleased as punch when Chris Martin spotted him in the crowd.
‘Oh, look at this, ladies and gentleman… Ralph Macchio!’ said Chris onstage at Wembley Stadium. ‘He’s a hero since the early 1980s.’
The Fix You singer then launched into a song about the actor’s incredible career.
It appeared to be a moment Warne will cherish forever.
‘Fun moment. My childhood crush on the Jumbotron. RALPH MACCHIO! We sat with his family, so much fun,’ she wrote on Instagram alongside footage.

‘Coldplay, you are the Greatest. Such a profound moment with my childhood dream, so grateful,’ she continued.
Many of Simone’s followers took to the comment section to share their excitement over the footage.
‘This is really lovely for you,’ one person wrote.
‘Could this get any better?’ a second added.
It comes after Amanda Keller spoke of her discomfort over the public reaction to the now-infamous Coldplay concert ‘kiss cam’ moment.
In July, the radio host said on the Jonesy & Amanda show that she has empathy for Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, who was caught cuddling the company’s HR chief Kristin Cabot at a Coldplay gig.
‘How would you feel if you were constantly defined by the worst mistake you’d ever made?’ the 63-year-old asked.
‘And these people up on this big screen have families. What a huge mistake they’ve made.’

Keller slammed the social media response as ‘hyenas picking at the bones’.
‘I am starting to feel uncomfortable with my own reaction,’ she continued, adding that her own response made her feel ‘bad’.
‘Imagine if you had a humiliating moment – it doesn’t have to be an affair – and it suddenly becomes viral and you lose everything’.
Keller said that there were different ways of looking at the controversial moment, other than the mockery that has erupted online.
‘It’s interesting because there’s a couple of ways of looking at this. It’s united the whole world in the glee that we’ve all felt at this situation’ she added.
