The 26-year-old NHL star met Fitzgerald when they were still high school students in London, Ont., and have been together since they connected in 2017. The couple married in the Turks and Caicos in a private ceremony on June 9.

“He’s super compassionate,” Fitzgerald said on the Canadiens website when asked what some of Suzuki’s best qualities are. “He’s super easy to get along with. There are a lot of things about him all in one realm. I think his demeanour in general is something that is one of his greatest qualities. Anything you throw at him, any stressful situation, any bad situation — he always knows how to handle everything, and he does it calmly.”
