Footy heartthrob Nicho Hynes' partner reveals intimate photos from their romance - as one pic leaves NRL fans absolutely STUNNED
Nicho Hynes' partner Piper Wallis has marked the couple's one-year anniversary with a romantic display on social media - but left fans confused by a photo of them holding a baby.
Wallis, 23, posted a series of photos to Instagram recently celebrating the milestone and offering followers a surprising glimpse of their very private relationship.
The montage included touching moments from the last year, including shots of them at the beach, attending a wedding and away on holidays together.
Over the weekend, Wallis posted some more photos, including a shot of the couple holding a baby - which some fans thought was theirs.
'Can't believe you hid a whole pregnancy,' posted one follower.
'Congrats guys,' said another.
'So happy for the new parents,' posted a third.
One of Piper's friends posted in the comments that her child loved meeting his 'aunty and uncle', confirming that the baby isn't theirs.
Hynes, 28, has been single for most of his professional playing career and has been very private about his personal life, with the exception of his family.
But he has been happy to share images and videos with his new partner, Piper.
The star playmaker will be looking to turn things around for the Sharks who suffered a heavy defeat to the high-flying Warriors on the weekend.
The loss, which sees the Sharks losing touch with the top four, comes after a 42-16 thumping against the Sydney Roosters.
'It's a simple game sometimes. If you don't get the simple and the hardest parts right then that's what happens to you,' said coach Craig Fitzgibbon.
'The second half, we can defend better than that and we will defend better than that and we need to defend better than that and we'll work on defending better than that.'
Hynes said getting off social media and spending time with loved ones have been the secrets to his happiness this season.
The 28-year-old is currently living with his girlfriend, best mate and mother - as well as his beloved dog.
'He doesn't give a s*** if I win or lose,' Hynes said of his four-legged buddy.
'I've got things in place where I don't need to be around negativity.
'I don't need nay-sayers in my life, I don't go on social media anymore, I just put myself around people who love me and I love.
