The 35-year-old married Magripilis at a stunning ceremony in Darwin after meeting when they were both 18 at a nightclub in the Northern Territory capital.
Speaking about the nuptials to The Australian Women’s Weekly in February this year, Mauboy said the ceremony celebrated her Indigenous and Indonesian heritage and Magripilis’ Greek heritage.
“It was a very cultural celebration … a cultural fusion. There were moments when Greek music started and Them was there leading everyone in the dance, because he grew up dancing and still dances traditionally,” Mauboy said.
“My dad got everyone up with his traditional (Indonesian) dancing and a lot of our uncles and aunties got up on the guitar and started singing hymns. I was thinking: ‘This is (what it’s all about)‘.”
Earlier this year, Mauboy told The Daily Telegraph the pair almost split at one point.
“We were eight years in a long distance relationship and we felt really apart, we weren’t doing things together, we weren’t creating a future,” Mauboy said.
The singer said the pair eventually worked it out after they moved in together.
