Melissa Doyle shares major family news that left her “bawling”
Former Sunrise host Melissa Doyle has shared some amazing family news about her son Nick Dunlop.
The 21-year-old, who is part of the Australian Rowing Team, has had a major win after taking home a gold medal in an international regatta held in Plovdiv, Bulgaria.
The journalist and proud mum couldn't hide her excitement as she took to Instagram to share a few snaps of her son and his team.
