Sunday 29 May 2022 08:40 AM Anthony Albanese goes on a date while he waits for Scott Morrison to move out ... trends now
Anthony Albanese spent the final day of his weekend taking his dog Toto for a walk before heading out on a romantic date with his girlfriend Jodie Haydon as he waits for Scott Morrison to move out of Kirribilli House.
The prime minister was spotted taking a stroll near his Marrickville home, in Sydney's inner west, on Sunday morning after arriving back from the Quad Summit in Tokyo on Wednesday.
Opting for a casual jersey and jeans for the walk, the PM then went home and changed into a dapper suit to take Ms Haydon to the Belvoir Street Theatre to watch Wayside Bride.
Meanwhile, Mr Morrison was got into his car at Kirribilli House - the second official residence of the prime minister after The Lodge in Canberra - to head to Horizon Church in the Sutherland Shire for the 9.30am service.

Mr Morrison returned back to the heritage-listed mansion about 3.10pm, chatting with security, patting his dog, and hugging one of his daughter's before heading inside.
Despite being dethroned more than a week ago, the Morrisons have remained at the harbourside mansion and are yet to hand the keys over to Mr Albanese, who is now the rightful tenant.
Nikki Durant, the Morrisons' pool cleaner, said she left their modest three-bedroom home in Port Hacking in Sydney's south on Friday after moving in earlier this year with her two adult sons when their northern rivers' home was destroyed by floods.
Ms Durant said she was not sure when the Morrisons would be moving back into their home as they had renovation plans.
'I've met Scott a couple of times, he's a lovely man,' she told Daily Mail Australia.

'I left Friday around lunchtime, but I didn't get to speak to them really because I was busy packing and moving out.
'I think they are doing some renovations before they move back in. I know they are considering painting.'
Before his walk, Mr Albanese had a quick meeting with fellow MP Tony Burke.
The Rabbitohs fan then returned home, donned his favourite team's jersey, some jeans, and joggers, and took Toto on an outing through local parks.
