Tziporah Malkah reveals real reason for calling off James Packer wedding

Tziporah Malkah has revealed the real reason for calling off her wedding with James Packer, with the 44-year-old former model who was once known as Kate Fischer holding nothing back in a recent interview with A Current Affair.

“I was heartbroken,” she said of the split.

“I was very smitten with him, I was in love with him. It took me about eight years to get over it... I fantasised for years about us getting back together.”

Tziporah said ultimately it was James’ busy work commitments that caused her to call off the two-year engagement, with the formal model admitting, “He was under so much pressure from work and I just refused to marry a credit card.”

The one-time star also revealed she has cast the jewellery from her ex-boyfriend into the ocean as part of a cathartic experience to help deal with the grief.

“I did the whole walk from here [Bondi Beach] to Clovelly one night with one of my cousins,” she explained.

“And at separate points that meant something to me I'd throw a piece of jewellery out into the ocean.”
