She also added that their main focus is on their two children.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana\">MacGill met Friend in 1999 when the one-time Neighbours star-turned-journalist was doing a story on the cricketer for A Current Affair. They later got married and have two kids, Penny and Alex.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana\">Friend was impressed with MacGill, the director of communications agency Media Friendly, and thought he wasn&#39;t a stereotypical cricketer.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana\">MacGill, who is now a sports commentator, was recently photographed in a romantic tryst with a mystery brunette. They were spotted kissing publicly in Sydney&rsquo;s eastern suburbs last week, before dining at Double Bay restaurant Mrs Sippy. After the meal, they were seen checking into the Sheraton on the Park hotel.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
