Channel 7 presenter Kylie Gilles was struck by the stars on the air after interviewing one of her favorite stars.
Legendary Happy Days actor Henry Winkler, aka The Fonz, appeared on This Morning on Thursday and Kylie was thrilled to chat with her childhood hero.
Though she’s interviewed many stars throughout her career, her conversation with 77-year-old Henry was a memorable wish-list moment for the presenter.

She captioned the snap, “This is me around the age of 10 wearing a ‘The Fonz’ t-shirt.” Remember Fonzie from the TV show Happy Days?
“Well today on This Morning we interviewed Henry Winkler. “If that little girl from Tamworth had only known back then that she would get the chance, she would never have believed it.”
The presenter said his face can also be seen on the t-shirt under the writing, but it just can’t be seen in the old snap.

She added, “Plus, the t-shirt was homemade.” Mom used a transfer from a magazine, ironed it on, and we painted over Fonzie’s picture in Hobbytex. Think Hobbytex!!
‘Today was a good day. Henry/Fonzie said it warmed his heart. My also.’
At the end of her interview, Kylie showed the actor the photo of her wearing the shirt, and he told her she had “great taste in clothes.”
He added, “You know what, this warms my heart, thanks for letting me know.”
