It goes without saying that Daithí Ó Sé is an old hand at the Rose of Tralee at this stage, but he still had several supporters cheering him on during night one.
The host took a trip down memory lane in Kerry on night one, with Rita stepping out to support him as he took to the stage.
The couple first met in 2008 while she was the New Jersey Rose, and it was love at first sight for the couple, who later tied the knot and welcomed their son Micheál Óg, now eleven.
On Monday, Rita looked sensational as she glammed up for the event in a pistachio green lace dress embellished with roses throughout.
Her dress also features a retro sweetheart neckline and a full skirt and appears to be the Mabel Dress from Dress the Population, which retails for €530 from the brand's website here.
Rita also shared an adorable snap of Daithí getting a pep talk from a very special Rose of Tralee visitor on stage!
In a follow-up shot after all the excitement, they couldn't resist posting a selfie, which she captioned: 'Night, one done.'
The cute photos come just weeks after Daithí and Rita celebrated their 13th wedding anniversary in July, with Rita opening up about their big day in June.
