Appearing on Monday’s Today show, the Australian actress, 45, revealed the couple marked the occasion by visiting a location close to their hearts.

‘So it was just nice to go back there, and it was actually just amazing,’ she added.
Reflecting on the sheer length of her marriage, the Back To The Outback star mused: ‘You do count the years, but they do all of a sudden get to 20.’
‘It’s a lot, it’s a lot,’ she said, jokingly rubbing her forehead in mock exhaustion.

‘But I’m very grateful,’ she added with a laugh.
Isla and UK-born Sacha met at a party in Sydney in 2002 and married eight years later.
The couple are parents to three children, Olive, 12, Elula, eight, and Montgomery, four.

‘Happy Anniversary. 20 YEARS,’ she began her caption.
‘If there ever comes a day when we can’t be together keep me in your heart. I’ll stay there forever,’ she added, quoting Winnie the Pooh.

Last year, Isla told Marie Claire that meeting Sacha was like ‘winning the lottery’.
She said their relationship was built on ‘a shared sense of humour and a willingness to be married’.
The Confessions of a Shopaholic star, who relocated to America early in her career, also admitted that ‘juggling’ a family in LA wasn’t easy.
‘There’s not really a culture of bringing your kids to dinner parties or to restaurants past 6pm. I tend to entertain at home because I want to be with my family – it’s easier to put your kids to bed and have a wine with friends,’ she said.
