Married for 11 years and parents to two young boys, their relationship has been built on friendship, laughter and a deep commitment to each other. But when Enzo was diagnosed with kidney disease, their future suddenly became uncertain. As his kidney function deteriorated and he was told he would need a transplant, Emma made the extraordinary decision to put herself forward as a living donor. Then came the news they had been hoping for: she was a match. In this episode of Love Stories, Emma and Enzo join Tiffany Dunk to revisit their unconventional first meeting, a very public radio proposal, and the challenges that have tested their marriage. They open up about the fear and uncertainty of Enzo’s diagnosis, the emotional weight of asking someone for a kidney, and the four-week wait to find out whether Emma could donate.
