Sunrise star reveals secret Perth girlfriend as he announces their engagement: ‘I’ve kept some things private’

James Tobin got down on one knee and proposed to his mystery girlfriend Farrah this weekend.

It came as a shock as the Weekend Sunrise weather presenter, 43, has never made his relationship, which has been going on for at least a few years, public.

The TV star shared a sparkling tribute to his mystery fiancée on Monday, saying the lovebirds have been in a long-distance relationship “for the past few years.”

“A little news… we’re getting married,” James began alongside a photo of him and Farrah as she showed off a huge engagement ring.

“A lot of my life is played out on TV, but I’ve also kept some things private because not everything needs to be there.”

He continued, “I’m happy to tell you that I asked Farrah to marry me and she said yes.” For those who don’t know Farrah, she is a ray of sunshine in this world.

‘She is brilliant and beautiful, funny and smart, a kind heart who saves lives and runs ultramarathons in her spare time.

‘The last few years of our relationship were long distance while Farrah was in Perth completing a fellowship in interventional cardiology and I couldn’t be prouder of her.’

James went on to say that Farrah will soon complete her studies in Perth and is ready to move to Sydney to start “the next chapter” of her life with him.

James called himself the ‘luckiest man alive’ and was flooded with congratulations from all his famous friends who seemed to know Farrah very well.

Farmer Wants a Wife host and former Sunrise star Sam Armytage led the wave of love, writing: “Dear JT and Farrah – this is the most wonderful news. Congratulations. You are such a wonderful couple and I look forward to many happy times ahead. Love from both of us.”
