AFL star Nathan Buckley was spotted enjoying some downtime with his girlfriend Brodie Ryan in the bustling streets of Melbourne on Friday.
The pair seemed to be in good spirits as they stepped out of a cozy brunch spot, ready to take on the day.
However, the post-brunch bliss was short-lived as Nathan discovered a parking ticket on his brand new BMW car.
The parking inspector, captured in the moment of issuing the unwelcome surprise, seemed unaware that the sleek vehicle belonged to the AFL legend.
Despite the unfortunate end to their brunch date, Nathan and Brodie appeared to take the minor setback in stride.

The former Collingwood coach was dressed sharply for the outing in a navy button-up shirt paired with jeans.
Meanwhile, Brodie kept it effortlessly stylish in a black puffer jacket, leggings, and her hair pulled back, donning shades perched atop her head.
The high-profile couple are often seen navigating the Melbourne scene.
Brodie previously revealed she and Nathan connected over their similar upbringings, after they began dating in 2022.

Despite their 17-year age gap, the Melbourne businesswoman said they have so much in common and that they push each other every day to be their best selves.
‘Helping others be the best version of themselves and prioritising their mental health and wellbeing and giving back to others is a passion both Nath and I have always shared. These topics were a big attraction to each in the beginning,’ she said.
‘We had very similar upbringings and share a lot of the same values due to this,’ she continued.
‘I have always been enthusiastic about helping others where I can, and to have a partner that exercises this same passion every day with his family, friends, and the wider community inspires me.’

Brodie said Nathan’s public profile has given him the opportunity to help others through hardships and to give back, and that she is ‘inspired’ by the work he does.
Smitten by her love, she gushed: ‘He is a beautiful person.’
The former Collingwood player is also clearly besotted with Brodie, as he often expresses his love for her on social media.
