“I’m glad it’s not me!” Cass Thorburn’s fiery take on Karl’s baby news
Today show host Karl Stefanovic is counting down the days until he can welcome his new baby girl into the world with his wife, Jasmine Yarbrough, in May.
On Tuesday though, Karl’s former wife Cassandra Thorburn shared her live reaction of her ex-husband’s exciting news.
The 48-year-old told the Kyle & Jackie O Show of her joy on the baby – the joy that it wasn’t hers, that is.
“What did you think when you saw that your ex is now having a baby with someone else? Was that a weird moment for you?” radio host Kyle Sandilands asked.
“What did I think?” Cassandra replied, laughing.
“I thought, ‘I'm glad it's not me!’
“To be honest, that's all I thought.”
The former Dancing With The Stars contestant went on to deny that she had any hard feelings towards her ex-husband.
“He's married. I'm living my life. We still share three children and nothing is ever going to change that,” she explained.
Karl and Cassandra legally separated in 2016 after 21 years of marriage and three children including sons Jackson, 20, and River, 12, and daughter Ava, 14.
Kyle also asked Cassandra if she had “taken another lover” following their split.
“Just one. Just one!” she confirmed however she did not clarify any further details about her relationship since she separated from Karl three years ago.
In January, Stefanovic told 3AW that he didn’t understand why people were concerned about his divorce.
“I thought ‘Hang on, a lot of people go through [divorce], why is mine such a big deal?’” he said.
“I still don't know why it was, but I got divorced, I did find love again, and I'm sorry if people are offended by that, but it's made me really happy.”
