Lockdown waits for no one and no birthday, but that didn’t stop Lisa Wilkinson celebrating her husband Peter FitzSimons’ special day – within appropriate measure, of course.
The Sunday Project host has shared a beautiful birthday message for her husband of over 30 years, who was marking quite the milestone: his 60th birthday.

Despite it being a big birthday, the couple appears to have spent the evening at home with Lisa revealing their grand plans had be turfed thanks to restrictions.
“A very happy birthday to the big fella @peter_fitzsimons who packs more into a day than I can in a year,” she wrote.
“Not quite the big celebration we were planning, but hey, life in lockdown… 🎂🎉❤️ xxx.”
Lisa previously told Now To Love that last year’s lockdown proved quite the adjustment for the couple with the added factor of having their last child move out of home just two weeks before restrictions came into place.
“This the first time since we were first married that it’s just been us, so almost 30 years,” she said at the time.
And it proved quite the eye-opening experience for the television star and mother-of-three.
“Some bad habits we’ve discovered had developed [over 30 years],” she said with a laugh.
“We spent the first couple of weeks looking at each other thinking, ‘I don’t know if I can cope with this’.
“So we had, let’s just call it, some serious ironing out to do and a lot of negotiation and the occasional raised voice in frustration. “

Celebrating three decades together recently, Lisa revealed the sweet way she and Peter first met in a sweet dedication.
“Well this is one for the grandkids (which we don’t have yet, by the way)…but I digress,” Lisa began. “You see 30 years ago last May, @peter_fitzsimons and I met in the Channel 9 makeup department for the very first time when we were both guests (in separate segments) on the Today show.
“It wasn’t much more than a brief introduction and a handshake – we were both charmed, but also in separate relationships.”
