Though they knew each other for more than 25 years, but it wasn’t until 2024 that the pair began to see each other in a different light.
Nicodemou confirmed the start of their relationship in July 2024 and the pair have gone steady ever since, even making a joint appearance at the Logie Awards.
Soon after they attended events with their respective children, Scout and Nicodemou’s son Johnas.
Nicodemou previously opened up about her relationship on Mamamia’s No Filter podcast, sharing that her growing feelings were “weird” at first.
“Jimmy and I have known each other for 25 to 30 years and there were no feelings for a really, really long time. So I was shocked when I started having feelings,” she said.
