Woman lifts the lid on what it is REALLY like to marry into a famous family - after having Olivia Newton-John as her sister-in-law

A woman has shared what it is really like to marry into a celebrity family - and how it is 'surprisingly' easy to navigate life with A-listers. 

In a first person piece for Business Insider, Heath Savage detailed her experience of having Olivia Newton-John as a sister-in-law after marrying her sister Sarah.

After explaining she met her now-wife 22 years ago online, she said she didn't notice her famous surname until they exchanged email addresses.

'That's when I realized I was falling for Olivia Newton-John's sister,' Heath quipped.

The pair had been chatting online for a week with Heath recalling she knew 'immediately' that they shared similar values.

'We were also both into books, which helped us connect quickly,' she explained, adding she was drawn to her 'warm smile and her green eyes.'

'She looked kind and intelligent, which I later learned was true,' Heath added. 

Heath said it wasn't difficult to fit in once she'd met Sarah's family, and she let her friendship with Olivia develop naturally - as you would in any other relationship.

'Sarah made her own way in life, which I respected from the beginning,' Heath explained. 

'She never pushed into the spotlight and always behaved graciously. So, I followed her lead and let my relationship with Olivia unfold naturally.'

Heath eventually met Olivia after she and Sarah had been dating for two years, recalling the A-lister accepting her 'immediately.'

'I quickly discovered that she was a down-to-earth, intelligent, funny lady - with a naughty sense of humor,' she shared.

Health also reflected on the times spent at a house she and Sarah share in Spain, as well as quiet suppers in their Sydney apartment, where the Grease actress would often drop by 'armed with a bottle of Grey Goose vodka.'

However, Heath said out of respect to the family, she never shared any information with anyone about Olivia's private life.

'But I won't pretend I didn't indulge in a few "wow" moments,' she admitted. 'I've sometimes texted my best friend: "You are not gonna believe where I am!"'

Heath explained that she and Sarah became almost like local celebrities in their Spanish town, after Olivia and husband John Easterling came to visit them in 2019 - causing commotion when the locals realized there was huge celebrity nearby.

'We hosted lunch at one of the cafés in our little village square, and suddenly, everyone was talking,' Heath recalled. 

'They were polite and respectful of our privacy, but there was a murmur and photos. 

'It's not every day an international superstar is enjoying food in the square,' she pointed out.

Heath continued: 'After that, reporters from the local TV station and press descended, and we were subsequently interviewed, photographed, and appeared on the news.'

Parts of Olivia's fame even helped them grieve when the actress died from breast cancer in 2022.

After spending over 20 years together, Heath and Sarah officially tied the knot in May - although were missing a key member

'[When Olivia died] our council office organized a special tribute, showing Grease on an outdoor screen in the village square,' she reminisced.

'They were proud that Olivia had visited and had loved the place so much,' she continued.

'Our mayor made a speech and presented Sarah with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. Even now, people stop and say hello to us in the street, shops, or cafés. Some come up and wish us hearty congratulations.'

'Three friends were our official witnesses. We then hosted a lunch party at one of our favorite restaurants afterward. It was low-key, modest, and fun,' she explained.

Heath said although Olivia was a huge part of their lives for so long, she doesn't think that has anything to do with their acceptance in the community.

'Sarah and I like to think that we are loved and accepted locally because of how we behave toward others and not because of who Sarah is related to,' she shared.

'I hope the lovely people who have welcomed us into their lives agree.'
