Well, folks. It’s official. One of the worst-kept secrets in Australian showbiz has finally been confirmed: Karl Stefanovic and Jasmine Yarbrough are engaged. Lah-dee-frickin-dah.
Despite the fact that Yarbrough’s been swanning around Sydney the past few weeks sporting a rock on her hand sizable enough to house prisoners on, the couple only made the engagement “officially” public a little earlier today.
Stefanovic spoke to The Fix earlier today and stated love was the last thing on his mind when Yarbrough came into his life.
When Jasmine came into my life, I had no thoughts of new love or the future, but we are happy and grateful we found each other.
We are yet to work out when we will get married, but probably later this year. We are both very happy.
He also took the time to shoot down some of the more ardent media rumours that had been swirling about the ole’ world wide web over the past few days. Namely, that Jasmine was for shiz up the spout, and that the engagement ring carried a pricetag equivalent to Liberia’s deficit.
Jas isn’t pregnant. The ring was made by Nic Cerrone and didn’t cost $120,000. Those figures are ridiculous. And there is no media deal. Don’t believe everything you read, unless it’s here.
The 43-year-old TODAY host and the 34-year-old shoe designer became an item in February 2017.
So there you have it, mates. In the words of one Karl’s fellow-batshit insane Queenslanders, let there be a thousand blossoms bloom.
