Jesinta Franklin shares tender kiss with husband Buddy during Grand Final parade

Jesinta Franklin couldn’t hide her pride over her husband Lance ‘Buddy’ Franklin on Friday. 

The footy WAG gave the athlete a tender kiss in a video shared to Instagram Stories, as they attended a pre-Grand Final parade in Melbourne. 

In the clip, Jesinta, 31, swooped in to give Buddy, 35, a smooch as he celebrated his  upcoming Sydney Swans match. 

Buddy hopped down off a float after passing his wife and daughter Tullulah in the crowd. 

The two-year-old was being carried by Buddy’s mother-in-law Valerie Campbell, with his excited wife Jesinta waving and cheering alongside them.

The beaming Sydney Swans great waved to his family while sitting on the back of a white Toyota Hilux before they were reunited at the end of the parade.

Jesinta greeted her husband with a kiss and the couple briefly hugged before Buddy took son Rocky, one, in his arms while Jesinta held Tullulah.

The video was captioned: ‘When you spot dad in the crowd’. 

Tallulah wore a replica Sydney Swans guernsey with the word ‘daddy’ above her famous dad’s No. 23 on the back.

Jesinta opted for an all-black activewear ensemble plus a matching cap.

Buddy was earlier lauded on stage during the parade 

Rocky was also pictured wearing a replica No. 23 guernsey with his blond hair tied in a high ponytail that was reminiscent of his sister’s.

The Franklins, who married in 2016, are one of the AFL’s most famous couples. 

Jesinta, a former Miss Universe Australia-turned-fashion influencer, recently qualified as an accredited AFL player agent.

The Franklins’ children both wore matching red and white Nike shoes in support of their dad, a key forward for the Sydney Swans, as well as No. 23 jerseys

Last week, Buddy shocked the football world by signing a one-year contract extension for the 2023 season.

His nine-year $10million deal with the Swans will expire at the end of the season, and his future had long been the subject of speculation.

The two-time premiership winner, however, put an end to the rumours himself on Monday evening with a succinct two-word statement reading simply: ‘One more.’

Buddy will play in his sixth Grand Final when the Swans take on Geelong on Saturday. Despite his many accolades in Swans colours, he is yet to win a premiership for the bloods having fallen short in both 2014 and 2016.
