When a relationship hits the rocks, friends gather, nursing beers or sav blancs, to therapeutically unpick the “how” and the “why”. When Karl Stefanovic and his wife split, they endured an inquisition that made the Spanish one look soft. The Today cohost spoke to journalist Luke Dennehy about finding love again – one of the most basic human pursuits – under intense scrutiny, and how something so natural has been subjected to the most unnatural sort of pressure. Get to know more about one of Australia’s most recognisable faces in this week’s feature story. ●

COVER STORY

I

t’s at home that Karl Stefanovic truly feels safe – away from the spotlight, the prying eyes of the paparazzi, and the judgment from the viewers of the Today show that have watched him every morning for 14 years.

In the past two of those years, Stefanovic has rarely been out of the headlines – a lot of it for his personal life, which has seemed to be fair game.

First, it was revealed in October, 2016, that he had split from his wife of 21 years and mother to his three children, Cassandra Thorburn.

Then a year later, as his divorce continued to be scrutinised in the women’s magazines, Stefanovic, 43, met shoe designer Jasmine Yarbrough, 34.

The pair have had a commitment ceremony and will marry later this year – Stefanovic says a venue hasn’t yet been decided.

He admits the constant scrutiny, which has led to reams of column inches, is at times bruising and that in the past it has nearly broken him.

“I keep having to reassure myself not everyone thinks that, and I don’t think anyone is that interested in me,” he says.

“I can’t control much of the coverage. But as long as in my house, in my home, Jasmine and I are in love, we are open with each other and I can talk about anything with her, that’s my safe environment.”

Stefanovic was engaged in media commitments over lunch at one of his favourite restaurants in Melbourne, Crown’s Rockpool, not long after the

divorce became public, and he seemed shellshocked. Everyone at the time had an opinion on his divorce including, reportedly, some female viewers of Today who had sided with Thorburn and were consequently turning off.

During that time, Stefanovic says he had the support of some very high-profile Melburnians.

“Eddie and Carla (McGuire) have been amazing friends for me,” he says.

“When you go through difficulties, and I’m not saying I’m a martyr in that regard, people turn up, and they did just that.

“I just think they are wonderful. I’ve got some wonderful friends down here.”

One day Stefanovic could see the Today show permanently moving to Melbourne.

“There is no better or brilliant TV place,” he says.

Every time he comes to Melbourne, Stefanovic usually stays in the same room at Crown and in the bubble of the restaurants, away from the paparazzi.

A year after that Rockpool lunch, the headlines are still relentless, but Stefanovic says this time he is in a much happier place because of Yarbrough. But the pair are unlikely to hit a red carpet together. At the Logies on the Gold Coast earlier this month, Yarbrough was there but stayed away from the televised red carpet because it was too full on.

“No one should feel sorry for us in any way shape or form, but she has had to deal with a lot,” he says.

“It wouldn’t be easy coming into Karl Stefanovic’s world, but I’m enjoying being in her world.

“I can’t control much of the coverage. But as long as in my house, in my home, Jasmine and I are in love ... that’s my safe environment.”

Reading between the headlines Karl Stefanovic usually breaks the news, but is now one of Australia’s most talked-about people. The Today show co-host puts the rumours to rest.

“She is a breath of fresh air, [and] she’s incredibly strong. She just makes me cry with laughter every day.”

After a period as Nine’s US correspondent, Stefanovic started working as the co-host on Today when he was 30. It’s an age now that seems ridiculously young for such a high-profile television role. He has covered royal weddings, presidential inaugurations, a number of Australian elections, tsunamis, bushfires and terror attacks.

The story that affected him most was the Nice terror attack in July, 2016, where 87 people - many children - died after a truck drove into a crowd.

“It took me a long time to get over that one,” he says. “I remember standing there and this kid brought up a colouring-in piece of paper, and put it down at the memorial.

“I started crying, and I didn’t stop.”

He insists journalists, including himself, aren’t robots when it comes to coping with stories. “I think as journalists, you have to be really aware of the toll it can take and I think it’s OK to speak to someone and work through the emotions,” he says.

Stefanovic has worked with numerous Today cohosts, including Tracy Grimshaw, Jessica Rowe for an ill-fated period, Lisa Wilkinson for 10 years, and now Georgie Gardner.

CHANNEL NINE

T

he public perception of that new pairing didn’t start well. The so-called “Ubergate” story broke in March, after comments from a discussion in an Uber car between himself and his brother, journalist Peter Stefanovic, were leaked to the press.

Now, both Today hosts insist their relationship is in a good place.

“She is awesome, there is so much b******* about us,” Stefanovic says. “We just would not work with each other if we didn’t like each other. I’m loving it, she is loving it. Everyone is on their toes.

“I think the bar has been lifted by her, and we are all becoming better at what we do because of her.”

Walking the red carpet together at the Logies, Gardner said all the chatter about her alleged dislike for Stefanovic is not true.

“I knew what I was getting myself in for, and that is he is predictably unpredictable,” she says.

“We have a lot of fun, we laugh a lot and we have each other’s backs. I think there is a really good chemistry there, and more to come.”

Stefanovic has had a lot going on in his work and personal lives in the past few years.

He hopes the personal side will settle down, but one thing is for sure – despite rumours of him departing Today, he’s not going anywhere.

“It’s the best job in TV, and I won’t be leaving it anytime soon.” ●

A moving portrait

hen internationally renowned ballet dancer, Li Cunxin, who is well-known for his best-selling memoir, Mao’s Last Dancer, first saw the exhibition that tells the story Dancer of his extraordinary life, he was moved to tears.

Mao’s Last Dancer the Exhibition: A Portrait of Li Cunxin, at the Immigration Museum, uses photographs, costumes, video footage and other personal items from Li’s archives to paint an incredibly personal picture of his well-documented journey from poverty-stricken rural China to some of the most prestigious ballet theatres in the world.

But it was footage of one interview, which Li had never seen before, that caught him by surprise.

“I walked into the room and heard my parents’ voices,” explains Li, whose mother and father are now both deceased.

“It was incredibly emotional for me because it was the first time I had ever heard them say they were

proud of me.” While he knew the interview had taken place, he had never seen them on screen.

“Being Chinese in my parents’ era, they didn’t praise their children, so when I heard their words I was in shock and totally overcome with emotion,” says Li, 57, who moved from Melbourne to Brisbane six years ago, where he is the artistic director of the Queensland Ballet.

The interview, he says, is a highlight for him personally, but he singles out other exhibits too.

Remarkably, they’re not the awards or costumes that tell the story of his illustrious international ballet career; rather, they are deeply personal items, like a low-to-the-ground, bamboo stool his father used to sit on and tell stories, and a utensil the family used to steam yams.

They are items that transport Li back to the small, dirt-floor hut he shared with his parents and six brothers in rural Shandong, in Mao Zedong’s communist China. Li was just 11 in 1972 when he left home, having been selected by Chinese officials to study at the Beijing Academy of Dance, 1000 kilometres away, despite never having danced

before. He was put through a gruelling training regime and was overcome with homesickness, but the chance to support his family financially convinced him to continue.

At the age of 18, Li was awarded a cultural scholarship to the US, to study at the Houston Ballet. In 1981, just days before he was due to return to China, he attempted to defect. Dramatically, Chinese officials held him captive in the Houston consulate for 21 hours. Li won his freedom, but was prevented from visiting his family in China, a ban which caused the dancer years of unimaginable grief and guilt. It was six years before he would see them again.

Fifteen years since the release of his autobiography, he is still surprised that people are so fascinated by his life story. “I never really felt like my life was that special, and it still feels surreal to me that people are so interested in my life.” ● MAO’S LAST DANCER THE EXHIBITION \ Until

The IKEA of dining

I

f food is your thing – you’re lucky you live in Melbourne. Every week there’s some new “it” place you simply must check out.

But in searching for the perfect restaurant – like relationships – I have a few deal breakers.

Let’s start with the classic – ‘‘no bookings’’.

We all have that foodie friend who is well across the new hot spots.

This mate loves a group email, and will often decide where the group is eating. My issue is this friend is a lot more committed than the rest of us.

They’ll happily add their name to a “waiting list” and hang out in the gutter, outside the restaurant, until a table is ready.

No thanks, I’m not a dog. Why don’t they just take bookings? Why must they insist on making our night harder to enjoy?

Next up – deconstructed meals. No way.

Your order comes out with the food separated on the plate. You have to put the meal together yourself – it’s the IKEA of dining.

These joints are always very expensive, too. Do you pay more money for the chef to do less work?

Putting random bits of food in your mouth to create a meal isn’t “fancy” – it’s called being a uni student.

Next on my list – cook it yourself grills. I went to a Korean BBQ place recently.

The table had a little grill for us to cook our own meat. My mate Jemma said, “This is so fun. We can’t do this stuff at home!” Jemma, we all have kitchens, we absolutely can.

Tapas – you’re next!

Is tapas a Spanish word meaning “go home hungry”?

One meatball is not enough for 12 humans. Everyone sits there politely pretending they don’t want the last potato. I’m convinced that’s why McDonald’s has gone 24-hour drivethrough – to cater for people on their way home from tapas.

Even bill-splitting. Rebecca’s just downed 11 wines (she’s going through a break-up) and I’ve had two. Why are we paying the same amount?

“Even bill-splitting. Rebecca’s just downed 11 wines (she’s going through a break-up) and I’ve had two.

Captains’ Call

RENÉE SHANNON & PETER KEARNEY SPECIAL PROMOTION

C

onfidence is one of the many skills that Renée Shannon and Peter Kearney have acquired since taking on the role as Loyola College co-captains’ at the beginning of 2018.

The young leaders have been learning to work together to make a difference at the school for fellow pupils.

Renée: In years 10 and 11 I had the privilege of being the year-level representative for my house and I believed that it helped me become more confident within myself and in front of others.

Also, I knew last year’s college captains pretty well and, when I asked them how they found the pressure and the role of being college captain, they were both very happy and said that it was a great opportunity.

Peter: I wanted to lead my peers and make a difference throughout my school.

It was my intention to help the school pave the best way forward for our education and time at the college, in particular the younger year levels.

GREG BRIGGS

WHY DID YOU WANT TO BE SCHOOL CAPTAIN?

L OYO L A C O - CA P TA I N S PE T E R KEARNEY & RENÉE SHANNON

WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNT AS CO-CAPTAINS?

Renée: How to handle stress and my organisational skills have definitely improved.

I have most certainly grown in confidence to speak in front of both my peers and the younger students as well as learning how to be a better rolemodel to them.

Being college captain has taught me that not everyone is perfect.

That everyone makes mistakes, but the important part is being able to learn from those and improve your skills.

Peter: I have learnt skills such as being confident in myself, improving my public speaking skills, and expressing my ideas to others.

WHAT HAS BEING CO-CAPTAIN TAUGHT YOU?

Renée: Being a co-captain has taught me how important it is to work effectively as a team, to learn how to bounce off each other’s strengths and weaknesses and to form a bond that allows you to rely on one another.

Peter: It has mainly taught me about working with Renée and using our contrasting traits to write

speeches, reach deadlines and build relationships within the school.

IS THERE A LEADER YOU LOOK UP TO?

Renée: I don’t really have any academic or political leaders as such that I look up to, I mainly look up to my parents and my grandparents.

My parents are a large influence in my life and their constant support and their advice has made a massive impact on my life. My grandparents are the same, they never judge and are extremely proud of everything I do.

Peter: I don’t look up to anyone in particular, however there are many leaders whose traits I follow, such as empowering others and allowing these people to have trust in the work that can lead them forward.

ANY ADVICE FOR FUTURE CAPTAINS?

Renée: Go for it! There are lots of things in life that you will look back on and be like “I wish I did that!” or “why did I not do that?”.

I believe that even if you go for college captain

and you don’t get it, it shows your resilience and your determination.

Peter: To be a successful school captain, one must participate in as many school activities as possible and be friendly to others, to achieve the best you can in everything that you participate in.

WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THE FUTURE?

Renée: I am one of those year-12 students unsure about what career I want to pursue.

However, I do know that I would like to go to university and I am putting a lot of effort into my studies in order to achieve that.

I love chemistry and discovering why certain elements behave in certain ways with other elements, and therefore the possibility of going into research is an option.

I will continue to stick to my strengths, enjoy the rest of my high school journey and I will eventually find my pathway.

Peter: I am aiming to study engineering or commerce at university next year. ● MELISSA HEAGNEY

A positive start to secondary school

GREG BRIGGS

SPECIAL PROMOTION

M

LC’s head of junior secondary school, Cathie Ireland, has always had a keen interest in seeing young students successfully transition from primary school to year 7. “Many years ago I actually did the transition with a group of girls I taught in year 6 – I moved into a secondary school with them in year 7,” Ireland says.

“I suppose I lived the journey with them. It gave me some great insights into how they were coping and behaving in a primary setting and how that seemed to change over six weeks of school holidays.

“I saw girls who were confident and asking me lots of questions, to losing a lot of belief and confidence in themselves and it sparked a big interest in me in how we can blur the lines between primary and secondary school to make it the softest landing possible in year 7.”

Ireland joined MLC in January and oversees all students in years 7 and 8. Along with her team, she has been working to provide that soft landing through building strong relationships with primary schools, parents and potential students.

The college works with families to get a clear picture of each student, their interests and their academic strengths and challenges to provide a positive next step in education.

“One of the important things to remember is that secondary school isn’t a brand new start,” Ireland says. “Our girls are coming in with seven years of school behind them already. So the more we know about them coming into secondary school, the more it helps us to help them.”

Ireland says the large team of junior secondary staff, including year-level coordinators and home group teachers, works closely with students to develop strong working relationships with them. She is also well supported by deputy head of junior secondary Penny Church and year 7 coordinator Jess Brooder.

“We have specific programs teaching year 7s about organisations skills, about using a diary, how to manage their homework, whom to go to when they need extra support,” Ireland says.

“We also have some great programs like the Big Sister program for each home group, where year 11 students will partner up with year 7s to show them the ropes.

“So every morning you’ll see them before school

ADVICE FOR STARTING YEAR 7 …

Cathie Ireland recommends parents and students take advantage of MLC’s school tours and open days.

Make yourself and your daughter as familiar with our school as possible.

■ If you’ve got questions there’s plenty of people that can answer them so make sure you ask them.

■ Prepare your daughter for the fact that there may be some hiccups but also prepare her by saying, “You’ve had seven years of schooling so far, you’re continuing on a journey here. Take all the great skills that you’ve learnt from primary school into secondary school – don’t throw them away.”

■

starts helping them out with things – just being a guiding hand, it’s lovely to see,” she says.

Students are also encouraged to join in the extensive array of co-curricular options in order to meet others with shared interests.

“There are other specific things we do through

our wellbeing program ... for example, we talk to year 7s about friendships,” Ireland says.

“Friendship groups naturally reform in year 7. We have students coming in from 70 primary schools, so there are new personalities and different dynamics. It’s a time of exploring identity.”

Apart from the layers of wellbeing and support built through the junior secondary school, another more literal type of building is also happening: a new Year 7-8 Learning Centre which will open in mid-2019. “At the moment our years 7 and 8 are in separate buildings so I’m looking forward to having the team together in the one JSS home,” Ireland says. “It will be a building that creates some exciting, flexible spaces for better learning outcomes for our girls.”

Though she has only been with MLC since the start of the year, Ireland says she is loving the opportunity to work with year 7s and 8s again.

“My most recent role had been head of a primary school and I’m really loving being back in the junior secondary area. I see the complexity of the lives of our adolescent girls and helping them adjust to the next stage of their schooling.

“I love the breadth of choice and offering that’s available at MLC, and the diversity within our college gives everyone an opportunity to find their place.” ● MELISSA HEAGNEY

This property puts family living on the proverbial pedestal.

The block measures over 4200 square metres, and the roomy house spreads out over one, extra-large level.

A fireplace and barbecue kitchen on the covered terrace lends all-seasons impetus to al fresco eating, and the heated pool adds a splash when it comes to entertaining.

The owner commissioned the build in 2012. Interaction with the builder throughout the construction and finishing stages along with an insistence on the best of materials paid off.

The facade is classically attractive and entry is via a columned porch. Inside, shiny floor tiles in the foyer continue throughout the connected open-plan area, reflecting loads of light. Paired with bright white walls and ceilings, these tiles lend a fresh feel. For underfoot comfort in the most appropriate places, you’ll find carpet in the study and bedrooms.

The study branches off the foyer, as does a family room with fireplace. The kitchen connects dining and living areas in the open-plan hub. Going with the pale flow, it has creamy-stone benchtops, white-tiled splashbacks, white joinery and a butler’s pantry.

Folding glass doors linking the dining area and the entertainment terrace merge indoors and out. For major social occasions, you’ve got both covered. When you’re more inclined toward downtime than dancing, pop some wagyu steaks on the barbecue and gather the clan for a fireside nosh-up.
