'Other half is a real one for showing this kind of support,' one viewer commented, with Rebecca calling the Hamish and Andy star 'a good sport' for capturing the moment.
'The shoulder touch,' another viewer commented with a heart-eyes emoji, to which Rebecca replied: 'Still haven't recovered.'
'You're better than me I just screamed his name out a window,' said another enamoured fan.
Andy and Rebecca returned to their native Melbourne on Saturday.
They had visited New York to pay a visit to Andy's recently opened Aussie-themed Manhattan pub, Old Mates.
With Andy at the helm of the venture, it is backed by an owner's group that includes the likes of Hamish Blake, tennis star Ash Barty, surfing legend Mick Fanning, Australian cricket captain Pat Cummins and Hollywood A-lister Hugh Jackman.
Tucker, who previously dated ultimate It Girl Emma Chamberlain, performed at the US Governor's Ball this week and kissed fellow singer Conan Gray onstage while performing his viral hit.
The singer and former rapper also announced he is cancelling a few upcoming shows to focus on filming Lena Dunham's new Netflix movie, Good Sex.
'I'm so excited to be joining Lena and the Good Sex cast, but as the filming schedule was finalised over the past month, there were some unavoidable conflicts that unfortunately could not be worked around no matter how hard we tried,' Role Model wrote on Instagram.
'That said, I am no longer able to attend Calgary Stampede or join some of the shows on The Secret of Us Deluxe tour.'
As a result, Role Model said he would have to drop out of most of Gracie Abrams' shows, where he was scheduled as an opener.
'I am so sorry to anyone disappointed by this but the GOOD news is, you'll get to experience the incredible Djo, [Griff], and of course [Abrams] live and for that I'm jealous,' he said.
'I promise to make the shows we DO have together memorable and thank you always for your understanding. See you soon.'
He will still be joining Gracie for her upcoming shows at New York City's Madison Square Garden and Mexico City's Pesis Center, however.
Tucker will star alongside Natalie Portman and Mark Ruffalo in Good Sex, which follows 40-year-old couples' therapist Ally (Portman) who is getting back into the dating scene in New York.
