Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton may be political rivals these days, but ten years ago the two looked like the best of friends while being photographed at the billionaire mogul's third wedding.
A photo from Donald's 2005 wedding to Melania shows the Republican front-runner and the Democratic front-runner with their arms around one another smiling for the camera.
Also in the photograph are their spouses, Bill and Melania.
The wedding was held at Donald's Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, the same place he gave his 'victory' speech Tuesday night after claiming more states in the Super Tuesday primaries than any of his rivals.
In that speech Donald said of his plans moving forward; 'I'm going to go after one person: Hillary Clinton.'

Coming for her: In his speech on Tuesday Donald said of his plans moving forward; 'I'm going to go after one person: Hillary Clinton'
Not nice: Clinton (above on Tuesday) meanwhile called Trump 'divisive and mean-spirited' during an appearance on Morning Joe last week
Donald spoke at Hillary attending his wedding when he was questioned about his political donations back during the first Republican debate, claiming she came because he had donated to their family foundation.
'Hillary Clinton, I said be at my wedding, and she came to my wedding,' Trump said at the time.
'She had no choice because I gave to a foundation.'
There are reports he may have donated up to $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation after she attended the nuptials.
Hillary's campaign spokeswoman Jennifer Palmieri responded to this at the time by saying; 'He invited her. They're acquaintances. This is long, long established.
'It hurt her feelings, I'm sure, to hear him suggest that he didn't actually want her there for her company.'
The two certainly run in similar circles and their daughters, Ivanka and Chelsea, have both spoken publicly about how they are friends.
Hillary said of Donald however last week on Morning Joe; 'I didn't know him that well, but I did know him.
'It's been most surprising to me to see somebody who was affable and was good company and had a reputation of being kind of bigger than life really traffic in a lot of the prejudice and paranoia.
'And some of the comments that he's made, which have been so divisive and mean-spi rited, doesn't quite fit with what I thought I knew about him.'
