"I think we've just always had like a really good friendship. Amy's always been the older sister, so I've always gone to her for advice and seen her do everything first, so I either follow or do the opposite depending on the outcome."
"I think Mum was sending a few text messages, being like, 'What's going on, Paddy? Why are you waiting for so long?' The family had been anticipating Paddy's proposal for quite some time, given that Kate and Paddy had been together for 11 years."
"I get there, I call Amy, she doesn't answer. That's in the time she's like walking to her dinner. Then she calls me back, but I'm on the phone to one of my other best friends. If Amy had picked up Kate's initial call, the following events would have had an entirely different outcome."
Sisters Amy Griffin, 31, and Kate Griffin, 29, grew up together in Melbourne, Australia, maintaining a close friendship throughout their lives. Kate moved to Western Australia while Amy remained in Melbourne. Kate had been dating Patrick Turnbull for 11 years, while Amy had been with Stephen Duvnjak for nearly four years. On Valentine's Day, Paddy proposed to Kate on the beach surrounded friends. While Kate attempted to call Amy to share the news, a series of missed calls and timing coincidences led to Amy receiving her own engagement proposal from Stephen that same evening, resulting in both sisters getting engaged on the same day.
