From friends to lovers, Sophie Delezio and Joseph Salerno’s love story is one for the ages!
Sophie and Joseph met at a very young age and were best friends all throughout high school, even attending their year 10 formal together. However, their relationship was purely platonic for quite some time.
Evidently, the two ended up falling in love and starting a family of their own. But how did it all start?
How did Sophie Delezio meet Joseph Salerno?
Sophie and Joseph first crossed paths at the young age of six, when they were on the same swim team. The two weren’t properly introduced until many years later when Sophie moved to a high school in the Northern Beaches. Sure enough, Joseph attended the same school.
Sophie moved to his school in year nine, and by the age of 14, the duo were inseparable. Their friendship continued throughout their schooling and they even stayed in contact after Sophie moved to London to study in 2019.
When Sophie returned from the UK, she and Joseph reconnected and he realised just how much he had missed her. Joseph ended up confessing his feelings and the rest is history!

Joseph shared the details of when he first told Sophie he had feelings for her in 2021. “I told her, ‘Hey, I have something to tell you. I kind of have feelings for this person,’ and she said, ‘Oh really, who?'” he told our sister publication Woman’s Day.
“I got out my phone and got up a photo of her and showed it to her. I had never seen her laugh like that, I thought she was laughing at me!”
Sophie added: “I knew I had felt something for him and I’ve always wanted him in my life.” They began dating soon after.
