Golden couple Candice and David Warner have celebrated seven years of marriage in the most down-to-earth way while they celebrate apart.

The couple, who are proud parents to their three beautiful little girls Ivy Mae, Indi Rae, and Isla Rose, regularly post throwbacks and family snaps on social media just like any Aussie mum and dad.

But Candice went all out for their anniversary, sharing an Instagram carousel of six photos of her and David through the years.

“7 years married today and so many laughs along the way. @davidwarner31 you are my world. I love you always and forever. Happy anniversary darling,” she captioned the images.

Most of the snaps showed her and David smiling together, one taken on a cricket pitch with David sporting his uniform and a shiny medal while his wife cuddled in close.

There was also a sweet photo of the couple with their two eldest children, Ivy Mae and Indi Rae, mucking around with a cricket bat and ball while Candice posed in a chic frock.

David’s tribute was just as sweet, with the cricket pro sharing a delightful video collage of his and Candice’s romance through the years.

There were plenty of recent shots of the duo, as well as a number of throwbacks to the earliest days of their romance, trips abroad and glam Golden Slipper outings.

“Seven years strong and would not change a thing! Happy anniversary my love; I love you with all my heart. One day we will be able to spend it together!!” he penned.

The couple are currently thousands of kilometres apart with David in Mumbai, India for his cricket career while Candice is home in Australia with the kids.

After almost a decade married to the cricketer, Candice is no stranger to spending holidays by herself and making do with FaceTime calls.

In fact, the time apart only makes it all the more special when David returns home and they get to spend precious time as a family.

Candice and David first connected from afar too, linking up over Twitter while David was abroad in 2013.

“I was away in England for the Ashes and I got another message from Candice… Then we just started texting and Skyping. It was bizarre,” he told New Idea.

By 2014 the pair were engaged and expecting their first child, but nothing could prepare David for the moment he saw his wife-to-be walk down the aisle in 2015.

“How could I not have a tear in my eye when I saw Candice walk around the corner looking like the most beautiful bride in the world?” David told Woman’s Day shortly after.

Now, with seven years and two more kids under their belts, David and Candice look just as loved-up as ever, Candice commenting on David’s tribute: “I love you darling boy. See you soon xx”
