'I guess most people here would know our journey last year. We had our little girl, Billie – she arrived on the eighth of the twelfth last year,' Dan told the assembled cast and crew.
'Due to some... complications through birth, we only got to spend ten days with our beautiful girl, Billie.'
As the mood became more sombre, Dani continued: 'So, we're actually very grateful for those ten days – her time was spent in the NICU department at the Women's Hospital in Melbourne.'
To honour their daughter's memory, Dan and Dani have established Billie's Besties, a foundation that aims to raise money for the NICU at the Royal Women's Hospital in Melbourne.
The couple tied the knot in 2018 in an intimate ceremony on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula.
