Channel Nine star Danika Mason has reunited with her footy star boyfriend Liam Knight in Sydney, with photos revealing a painful detail about his trip Down Under.
Mason and the former Manly, Souths, Canberra and Bulldogs forward looked loved-up as they had lunch at the trendy Indigo cafe in the eastern Sydney suburb of Double Bay on Tuesday.
The couple were both decked out in black activewear, but Knight was wearing a moon boot on his left leg.
He picked up a stress fracture in his ankle earlier this month and needed surgery on the injury, which is expected to bring a premature end to his season in England's Super League competition.
Knight has been a force for Hull FC, with the team currently sitting sixth on the ladder with 12 wins from 23 games.
His good form saw him sign a one-year extension with the club in July.

Knight celebrated that good news by meeting Mason in Singapore for a romantic getaway, with both of them marking the occasion on social media.
Mason first uploaded an image from the Tanjong Beach Club with the accompanying caption: 'Out of office.'
Hours later the glamorous media identity posted another Instagram story, featuring her in a cosy couple shot next to Knight in Singapore.
It was then the footy star's turn to publicly declare his love for Mason.
In a gushing message, Knight also posted a number of images featuring the couple travelling abroad together.
'Happy birthday to my best friend,' the front-rower posted.
'I love doing life with you. Many more adventures to come.'
The couple have been living apart from each other for the last five months.

Knight, who hails from Alice Springs, was released by the Bulldogs last year after playing just two matches for the NRL club during the 2024 season.
But since his arrival at Hull FC, Knight has impressed, making 10 appearances for the club, and had initially planned to spend around seven months in the United Kingdom.
The 30-year-old, who has grown to become a fan favourite at the Yorkshire-based outfit, has now spoken of his delight at putting pen to paper on the new deal.
'I'm stoked to be staying here – I really love this club and I'm really excited to see what we can keep building over the next 12 months,' he told the club's website.
'I've really fallen in love with the fans and the atmosphere, both home and away – they're so dedicated. I love the playing group we have here and the coaching staff too – it's a fun place to come to work and that's being reflected in our performances.'
Mason and Knight went public with their relationship back in 2024.
The footy star took to social media to publish a loved-up snap of the couple embracing, while writing: 'My life's good.'
The pair have since jetted around the world together, with Mason flying to London to spend some time with her beau in October, before also travelling to Rome and Paris.
