- Replies 0
Change takes many forms, and for a well-known media figure, it has brought a fresh new look and a move abroad. Recently, he shared a glimpse into life after stepping away from a familiar role.
His transformation has sparked conversation, with many curious about what lies ahead.
While some embrace the shift, others reflect on his past work and legacy.
Matt Doran, who bid farewell to his hosting duties on Weekend Sunrise late last year, has embraced a significant lifestyle shift.
He moved across the Pacific to support his wife, Kendall Bora, as she entered her new role as Nine’s bureau chief in Los Angeles.
The couple, who exchanged vows in 2021, seem to be relishing their new adventure together, as evidenced by their social media updates.

In a recent Instagram video, the couple indulged in a quintessential American dining experience, tackling massive toasted sandwiches that included the classic U.S. 'biscuits.'
This culinary encounter sparked a light-hearted debate between Doran and his wife, questioning the American 'biscuit' nature and its resemblance to what Australians know as a scone.
After a taste test, however, Doran appeared to have changed his mind, conceding his initial skepticism.
The transformation goes beyond culinary explorations. Doran has also opted for a more rugged appearance, sporting a full beard that departs from his clean-shaven television days.
This new look reflects his current off-camera lifestyle and the freedom that comes with stepping away from the daily grind of broadcast journalism.
In a heartfelt announcement on the show last November, he shared the news with viewers and co-host Monique Wright, expressing that the decision was made with his family in mind and after considering other work opportunities.
He acknowledged the difficulty of leaving what he described as 'one of the best jobs on earth,' but emphasised that it was 'the right time for our little family,' which includes their beloved Italian greyhound, Murphy.
Since joining Seven in 2017 as a correspondent for Sunday Night and later taking on the role of co-host of Weekend Sunrise in 2019, Doran has become a familiar face to many Australians.
His move to the U.S. and the changes in his personal and professional life remind us that even our favorite television personalities have journeys and transformations of their own.
As Matt Doran embarks on this new chapter, it's clear that he's embracing the changes with open arms and a full beard.
His story is a testament to the exciting possibilities of taking risks and stepping into the unknown.
It's a narrative that resonates with many of us, especially those in the over-60s community who understand the value of pursuing new horizons, no matter what stage of life we're in.
