Guy Sebastian has shared a sweet tribute to his wife Jules, as the couple celebrate their 17th wedding anniversary.
The pop star took to Instagram on Saturday to share an adorable throwback photo of the couple on the red carpet at the 2004 ARIA awards.
The photo was taken four years before the couple tied the knot, bit it is clear that they were very much in love.
The photo showed Guy, sporting his then trademark black curly hair, standing on the red carpet with his future bride.
As Jules smiled broadly for the waiting photographers, Guy could only stare lovingly at his partner.
It turned out to be quite the auspicious night for Guy, too, picking up his first ARIA award for selling single with his post-Australian Idol track Angels Brought Me Here.

Captioning the post, guy also made a comedic reference to his recent sporting injury that saw him rushed to hospital requiring surgery on a ruptured Achilles tendon.
‘Happy 17th anniversary @julessebastian,’ he wrote. ‘I bet you thought you wouldn’t have to help me get in the shower for a few more years.’
He kept the joke going with an inset on the image that showed Stan Laurel from iconic comedy group Laurel and Hardy.
The picture, taken from the 1934 film Country Hospital, showed Stan lying in a hospital bed with his leg, enveloped in a plaster cast, elevated as he reads a book.
The incident occurred after Guy teamed up with AFL great and radio host Brendan Fevola last weekend to help struggling club Masala Dandenong break a long losing streak
However, Guy’s afternoon was cut short by injury with the pop star seen limping from the park in the fourth quarter.
Guy took to social media after the match, writing: ‘Thought I’d strap on the boots after a LONG hiatus and performed for the locals.
‘Great day out for Masala Dandenong getting their first win with @brendanfevola25 kicking a bag!

‘Unfortunately I’ve done a proper number on myself. #realitycheck #sticktosinging #footyglorydaysareover.’
Brendan revealed the extent of Guy’s injuries the following day on Channel 7’s Sunday Footy Feast.
‘Fourth quarter, I saw him fall down and I couldn’t stop laughing because he just fell. I was like “mate, singers shouldn’t play footy, footy players shouldn’t sing, keep to your genre”‘, he said.
‘And he looked around and he goes “I think something popped”. I said that’s not good, because I’ve done both Achilles.
‘He’s ruptured his Achilles. He’s getting surgery on Monday and is in hospital. So he missed his mate’s 40th but hey we got good headlines, which is great (laughs).’
Guy and Jules (née Egan) became engaged in late 2007 after eight years of courtship.
They tied the knot in May 2008 and have since welcomed two sons, Hudson 12, and Archie 11.
In 2020, Guy revealed to Who Australia Jules was hesitant to have children when they first started dating.
‘Happy 17th anniversary @julessebastian,’ he wrote. ‘I bet you thought you wouldn’t have to help me get out of the shower for a few more years’

‘Jules was a tomboy growing up. You know how some women growing up are kind of like, “I just can’t wait to be a mum?”‘ he said.
‘Whereas Jules was petrified of it. I never heard the words “I want to be mum” ever come out of her mouth because I think she was scared that she wouldn’t do a good job,’ he said.
Despite her reservations, Guy claims Jules has naturally taken to motherhood with the couple’s two sons.
‘The thing that I’ve seen her do unbelievably well is be a mum,’ the pop star said, praising his wife.
‘I think you have a newfound love for your partner when you see them in a role like that – nurturing and looking after the people that matter the most to you. She’s killing it!’ he added.
