Mr Morrison made public the heartwarming collection of pictures in his video address for International Women's Day.  

There he chose to direct his appreciation for his wife and two children.

'As you know Jenny and I have two beautiful daughters, Abbey and Lily,' he said.

'They are the centre of our lives.

'When I see my girls and I remember when they were born, my heart just filled with just wanting them to be everything they could be,' he said.

'To be happy, confident and have the choices in life they would want for themselves.'

International Women's Day comes shortly after the body of Sydney dentist Preethi Reddy was found in a suitcase packed in her car as police continue inquiries into the cause of her death with her ex-boyfriend a suspect.

The incident is a stark reminder of the ongoing violence directed against women. 

'As you know Jenny and I have two beautiful daughters, Abbey and Lily,' Mr Morrison said. 'They are the centre of our lives'

'When I grew up my father was a police officer and he was always very careful where mum would walk,' Mr Morrison said in the video.

'I’ve always had a strong consciousness of the fact that women just can’t walk around safely in our country and that was true when I was growing up, and sadly true today.

'I would like there to be a time in the future where that was not the case, and my girls would be able to walk the streets a lot more freely and safely than women prior to them and their grandmother and mother.   

'I want them to be safe in their home of course - and that’s what we seek to provide as a family - but also the homes they will live in, in the future.'
