The couple are set to celebrate the anniversary with a romantic getaway, though where that may be is not known as of yet.
Billy, 58, and Crystle, 52, went public with their relationship back in October last year and it seems things are on the up for the couple.
The pair have been spotted out and about together on several occasions, notably attending Geelong’s Best and Fairest awards at the end of last season, the Australian Open in January and his daughter Ruby’s wedding, in March.
Ruby wed Josh Wallis, the brother of Western Bulldogs star Mitch, at a lavish ceremony in Noosa at the beginning of March, with Billy cutting an emotional figure during the ceremony.
Billy and Crystle’s relationship blossomed shortly after he made headlines for a grand gesture involving another female friend.
Since then, he and Crystle have been inseparable, seen enjoying outings across Melbourne.
In February, the pair were spotted strolling hand-in-hand through South Yarra after a casual café date.
A mother-of-three, Crystle’s low-key style and successful career have captured Brownless’ heart.

Brownless, one of Geelong’s most popular players, made his name with 198 AFL games and 441 goals.
Billy was previously married to Nicky Brownless for 18 years before separating in late 2015.
Brownless’ private life hit the headlines in 2016 when his friendship with Garry Lyon was rocked by scandal.
The former best mates fell out after it emerged Lyon was in a relationship with Brownless’ ex-wife, Nicky.
The public split caused deep hurt for Brownless, who spoke openly about his disappointment.
