It was love at first sight for Denise and Jeff Austin, who met in the early 1980s. The couple has kept their union strong, having spent almost every day together since their first date. They welcomed two daughters, one of whom followed in her mother's footsteps in a "full circle moment."

Fitness enthusiast and instructor Denise Austin gained fame for her VHS and DVD workout videos. In addition to that legacy, she served two terms on what became the President's Council of Physical Fitness and Sports. She also helped launch the food pyramid guidance in the United States.

Although her fitness instruction videos have grown less popular over the years, Denise continued trudging through the fitness industry, encouraging people of all ages to stay active, including her children. She even led an aerobics session in high heels at her wedding reception!
