And they said it would never last. On February 10, The Real Housewives of Orange County alum Gretchen Rossi took to Instagram to share some news about herself and her longtime beau.

"Yesterday Slade & I celebrated 11yrs together," she wrote. "We have been through it all together and many said it wouldn’t last, but here we are 11yrs later, more in love today then when we first started." 

To celebrate the lovey-dovey day, the Orange County mom whipped up a special treat. In Instagram Stories, she reprised her Gretchen Christine Cooking Show to share the breakfast she was making for her beau. Claiming that German pancakes are Slade's "favorite," she showed herself beating eggs for the fluffy cakes. And later, she shared a photo of the tantalizing finished product. 

This isn't the only special occasion the couple has celebrated recently. In January, their baby Skylar turned 6 months old. But since solid foods are still new to her, the wee one preferred to celebrate with some perfectly on-theme flowers
