There's a new face brightening up Australian morning television, and we're excited to introduce you to Sunrise's new host, Matt Shirvington.
Not only is Matt a talented presenter, but he's also a loving husband and father with a picture-perfect family. Having started his career as a professional athlete, Matt represented Australia in international competitions, breaking sprinting records and capturing the hearts of viewers everywhere.
His dedication and charisma led him to his newest venture as a TV star. Recently, the charming family of five were spotted on a heartwarming shopping trip in Sydney, and we've got the scoop!
Beaming with happiness, 44-year-old Matt was seen out and about with his family, comprised of his beautiful wife Jessica and their three children: Sienna, 17, Winter, 15, and Lincoln, five.
The former athlete and TV star traded in his usual work suit for a casual outfit of grey trousers, a white T-shirt, and a denim shirt.
He slipped on a pair of designer sunglasses as the family stepped out into the sun and even gave his young son a piggyback while browsing a store in Chatswood.
Jessica, an author and equally enthusiastic about the family outing, sported light grey trousers and a chic brown jumper. She let her long, gorgeous brown locks flow, framing her warm smile.
Among her notable works is the book series Embrace, which has garnered praise from critics and readers alike.
The couple, who have been married for 20 years, started their beautiful love story when they met at 17.
Their connection has only grown stronger, and their love for one another is evident in their shared joy of spending quality time together.
But it hasn't been all fun and games for Matt after landing the top breakfast gig. Before starting his new role with Sunrise, Matt and Jessica had a serious discussion about how much of their family life he would share on-air.
In an interview with The Sunday Telegraph, Matt explained, 'We've spoken openly about what the job means and what sort of reaction potentially you could get on air if you say the wrong thing—or even draw boundaries about speaking about the kids. All these little things that needed to be discussed.'
Matt and Jessica have found a balance between their busy careers and family life through open communication and a conscious effort to set aside quality time for their loved ones.
Setting an example of open communication, Matt even turned to his predecessor, David Koch (known as ‘Kochie’), for advice.
'One of the first questions I asked Kochie was, 'Can I lean on you for advice or direction?' and he said, 'Absolutely,’ Matt revealed.
Demonstrating the value of mentorship and camaraderie, it's clear that the Sunrise team is a supportive network for one another.
We couldn't be more delighted to welcome Matt Shirvington to our morning routine. As Sunrise's new host, he brings his talent and sunshine personality to Australian households and shares a relatable passion for family.
At the Seniors Discount Club, we wish Matt, Jessica, and their children the best in their future family adventures and Matt's new role on Sunrise!
