For MasterChef Australia Fans, thereโs nothing better than a sweet love story, and nothing better than two fan-favorite members finding love on the show and welcoming adorable twin girls into the world.
We are, of course, referring to Sarah Todd and Declan Cleary. The talented chefs fell in love during last yearโs season of Back to Win and ended up welcoming their daughters Claudia and Charlotte just before Christmas.
Now the happy couple and their beautiful babies are set to appear on the highly anticipated show. MasterChef this Sunday night and fans are ecstatic for the family of four.
โLove, love, love that we get to see Sarah, Declan and their little babies!โ one fan wrote on Reddit.
โSo excited to see loved ones Sarah and Declan and the kids again for the first time,โ another added on Instagram.
โOMG these babies are so cute,โ a third wrote, while someone else wrote that the girls are โmini versionsโ of their mom.
Others joked that the episode would be โmore excitingโ than the upcoming one with Meghan Markle.
A full-circle moment for Sarah and Declan
Speaking exclusively to WHO Back in the famous kitchen, the couple spoke about how emotional the experience was.
โIt was incredibly special,โ they said. โMost of our story started there, and coming back with our girls was very full circle.โ
Although the twins were still tiny during filming, the couple noted that the cameras did not bother them at all.
โThey loved the light and activity,โ Sarah and Declan laughed. โThey sorted everything out while we were busy with nostalgia.โ
They added: โIt brought back a lot of wonderful memories. The kitchen still has the same energy and excitement that we remembered.โ

MasterChef stars Declan and Sarah would trust babysitting
When asked which of their former competitors or judges they would trust to look after the twins, Sarah and Declan joked that judge Andy Allen would be one of the first people on the list.
โNow that heโs going to be a dad himself, Andyโs going to be one of the best people ever,โ they joked. โBut we would trust quite a few MasterChef graduates, although we know they would have fed the girls!โ
After asking them when they each realized their love was forever, the couple told us it wasnโt love at first sight, but rather a slow burn.
โThere wasnโt one moment,โ they shared. โOur friendship grew naturally, and eventually we realized that we wanted to build a life together without competition.โ
How has life as parents of identical twins affected how they spend time in the kitchen? Their approach to food has undergone major changes.
โOur cooking styles are much more practical now,โ they said. โWe still love to cook, but making delicious family meals has become a priority.โ
