Thirteen years ago

Thirteen years ago, during a marathon in the Australian bush, a firestorm trapped Turia Pitt, burning 65% of her body and changing her life forever.
Her boyfriend, Michael Hoskin, could have walked away — but he didn’t.
He left his job to care for her, becoming her strength, her reflection, and her reminder that beauty lives far deeper than skin.

Years later, under the sun of the Maldives, he proposed.
When asked if he’d ever thought of leaving, Michael said simply:
“I married her soul, her character — not her body.”

Because real love doesn’t fade in tragedy.
It stays — through fire, scars, and time.
