The couple had been dating for a long time. Last year, the duo represented Brisbane Heat that emerged as the champions of the Women's Big Bash League. Harris, after winning the Women’s Big Bash League in 2018/19, had proposed to Kimmince after dating for four years. Both the batswomen were a part of Brisbane Heat’s winning campaign and Harris had hit the winning runs. Interestingly Harris had hit the winning run for the side in the latest edition of the tournament and won the WBBL title after defeating Sydney Sixers in the final.

Kimmince has represented Australia in the 16 and 41 ODIs. She was a member of the team that defeated India in the final of the T20 World Cup at the Melbourne Cricket ground this
