Richie and Gemma take a big leap

Sporting power couple Gemma and Richie McCaw are really leaping into their new married life.

Over the weekend, the loved up couple took their relationship to another level by doing a tandem bungy jump together in Queenstown.

The AJ Hackett Kawerau Bridge bungy was the first of its kind in NZ and a popular tourist hotspot.

In a cute Instagram gallery Gemma posted, she said: “Leaping into Sunday @ajhackettbungynz #sundayfunday”

It looks like they weren’t too scared and donned big smiles and embraced each other lovingly.

In the comments section, fans were loving it:

“Eek! Been there done that scary as hell but worth the adrenaline rush.”

“This is sooooo cool!! Great photos guys!!”

And “first time Gemma or Richie have ever been dropped, haha”
