The beloved Aussie duo clocked in their fifth wedding anniversary.

To mark the momentous milestone, both took to Instagram to share very different tributes.

The 25-year-old actress went down the traditional route, sharing a snap from her wedding day, simply adding the date of her big day as the caption, “23•12•11”.

Hubby Nate decided to go for a completely different post.

The NRL player decided to share a snap of his wife during her time in hospital.

The photo shows the pretty blonde in her hospital gown, wearing just her underwear, seated upright as she begins to tuck into some food.

Accompanying the image, the 31-year-old penned, “Happy 5th Anniversary @tessacharis.”

“Hope we make it to the 6th after this post. Love you #yugi #imdeadforthis #breakfastinbed #help #thisisanoldoldphoto”

While Tessa is yet to comment or even like the pic, many fans were delighted by the rather rogue tribute.

Fellow wag, Darren Lockyer’s wife Loren gushed, “Happy Anniversary lovers ❤️”

Singer Katie Noonan remarked, “Still sexy @tessacharis”, while another fan voiced what many were thinking, “You are a dead man @natemyles”

Nate Myles remained by his wife’s side during one of the scariest ordeals of her life, her battle with cancer. After Tessa was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, the actress endured six months of chemotherapy to beat the aggressive cancer.

The footy player praised Tessa’s strength during a chat with The Sunday Telegraph, describing her health scare as “sickening” before adding: “It was not cool what anyone has to go through because of that.”

“She’s tougher than any footballer I have played alongside. There’s a euphoric feeling when you walk off a field sore but for Tess when she was doing her treatment, she didn’t know for a lot of the time if it was a win, if it was helping.”

The former Home And Away actress also addressed how much her husband, who she married in 2011, has helped her through this challenging few months.

“Nate always underplays his support he gives to me. He is my rock,” she told the publication.

The footy player has gone through everything with her, including shaving their heads together. “I was more traumatised than her,” he laughed.

Congrats on the incredible milestone guys!
