Tom and Kitty's love story isn't the stuff of romantic novels – it's more the kind of tale you'd tell after a few drinks and a lot of eye-rolling. Back in 2014, when Tinder was less a dating app and more a social experiment, they swiped right on what would become their entire future. The Coat and Badge pub became their unlikely love nest. While other couples might have met in glamorous settings, Tom and Kitty bonded over pulling pints, managing coat checks, and surviving the chaos of hospitality life. Their first "I love you" wasn't in some candlelit restaurant or on a moonlit beach. It happened outside by the bins. Because nothing says true love like declaring your feelings next to industrial-sized garbage containers. For 11 years, Kitty has been what you might call a sports widow. First rugby, then golf – Tom's sporting commitments have been her true competition. In 2020, they bought their first home together. Not because they were madly in love, but because mortgage rates were good and they were tired of paying rent. Then came Barry, the dog who quickly became the true love of Tom's life. Kitty's pretty sure he loves the dog more than her. And just as Kitty was giving up hope, Tom proposed in Italy in 2024, using Kitty's grandmother Nora's ring. A ring that's seen more love stories than most, passed down and now continuing its journey with them. So here they are. Not a fairytale, but something better – a real, messy, complicated love that works. They're not perfect, but they're perfect for each other.
