Despite the change in hair colour and lifestyle, the former TV star is still every bit the stunner as she was on TV two decades ago.
Sarita, who is married to AFL Brodie Holland star, appeared on Channel Nine's The Price Is Right from 2003 - 2005.
She went on to become a glamour model, posing in skimpy bikinis for several popular men's magazines.
She also worked as a 'Grid Girl' and launched a successful modelling career in Asia.
Sarita met her footy star beau Brodie, 45, when she was 18, and the couple married in Bali in 2008.
Brodie played for the Magpies and Fremantle during his 20-year AFL career.
They share daughter Stevie, 15, and twin sons Kip and Bowie, 14.
They live with their children in an Essendon mansion after having sold their Ascot Vale home for $1.525million in 2019.

Sporting a darker hair colour, minimal makeup and a glowing complexion, Sarita was barely recognisable from her early 2000s TV days - but still every bit as glam

Sarita is now a popular lifestyle influencer and brand ambassador, and often shows off her incredibly toned figure in bikinis and activewear on her Instagram page.
Despite her glamorous persona, Sarita insists she's 'super low maintenance'.
She told Sophia Cachia for her blog in 2019 that while she has 'every single night cream ever' she always forgets to use them.
'The only thing I probably do is freak out in the middle of the night when I forget to put my fake tan on. So that would probably be my go-to night time product, especially when I've got a shoot on the next day,' she said.

Hamish Blake left panicking as disastrous trophy unveiling turns dangerous on Lego Masters - forcing the show to pause filming
Hamish Blake was left panicking during Tuesday's episode of Lego Masters as a grand moment went awry. The host was presenting the season's trophy to the contestants and Ryan 'Brickman' McNaught - but it didn't go to plan. The tall and hefty structure, constructed of Lego bricks, began to wobble, threatening to topple off the moving stand that Hamish was wheeling it on. Ryan quickly pointed out that the trophy appeared to be losing the battle the gravity as Hamish continued to push it out. 'Mate, if that lands on your head, it'll hurt' he warned and Hamish became hysterical.

The host was presenting the season's trophy to the contestants and Ryan 'Brickman' McNaught - but it didn't go to plan. The tall and hefty structure, constructed of Lego bricks, began to wobble, threatening to topple off the moving stand that Hamish was wheeling it on 'I'm not gonna break your trophy, Brickman!' he shouted in response - but nonetheless stopped pushing it out. The show then cut to a break while the statuette was stabilised and the segment could continue - the trophy now secure. It comes after Ryan revealed what he really thinks of working with co-host Hamish. The Lego Masters star has shared the screen with Hamish for the past seven years on the hit Channel Nine game show. On the cusp of the premiere of Lego Masters' seventh season - Grandmasters of the Galaxy - Ryan opened up about what it's like working with Hamish. Speaking to Nine, Ryan admitted that, rather than displaying any diva-like behaviour, Hamish has always been incredibly genuine. 'I'm not surprised by how funny he is, because he's exactly the same guy off camera as what he is on camera. So there's nothing hidden from that perspective,' Ryan said. 'He's just incredibly genuine, like, he's the same guy, so it makes it pretty easy to go to work, I'll be brutally honest.' Ryan (pictured) quickly pointed out that the trophy appeared to be losing the battle the gravity as Hamish continued to push it out The Lego doyen added that when the pair first met eight years ago, they hit it off instantly, bonding over eerily similar hobbies and interests. 'Whilst I'm creative with Lego from a professional point of view, and he's obviously a comedian and media personality-type-guy, we both cycle every day to and from the studio,' he said. 'We're both into footy. We both play golf. There's lots of things that we do that are the same, which made for a pretty easy connection, and we have a very similar sense of humour.' The chemistry has obviously translated successfully to the screen with Lego Masters proving quite the ratings hit for Nine. The 2024 series finale boasted a national total reach audience of 1.9million viewers - a figure that remained relatively consistent throughout the season with the premiere bringing in 2.2million fans. Ryan's ringing endorsement comes after Hamish was revealed to be one of the highest-paid TV stars in the country. The Australian's TV Rich List report, released this week, places the comedian third in the top 35 highest-paid stars list at a formidable $2million. He trails behind fellow Nine colleagues Scott Cam, who is on $2.4million and Karl Stefanovic who tops the list at an eye-watering $2.8million. However, the Brickman is nowhere to be seen on the list, with the lowest-placed star, 60 Minutes reporter Amelia Adams bringing in $300,000.

Footy star Jamarra Ugle-Hagan issues bombshell update on his future after concerns arose he could be set for a Bulldogs exit
Jamarra Ugle-Hagan has posted a huge message of intent on social media, as reports intensify that he could be making a play to leave the Western Bulldogs this year. The 23-year-old former No 1 draft pick, who is currently on an extended leave of absence from the Western Bulldogs, has taken multiple positive steps in his return to play football in recent weeks, with the footy star booking himself into a health retreat. In a video posted on Instagram by Ugle-Hagan and personal trainer and boxing coach Byron Bay Boxing, the AFL star was seen in a 'Rocky'-style video, running up hills, sparring in the gym and skipping. The video was posted with a black-and-white filter and was captioned 'We into it'. He has been seen sporadically at the Whitten Oval, missing several pre-season training sessions and has not played for the club in 2025. The Bulldogs' leading goal scorer for the 2024 season has also not featured for his side this year due to personal issues. View this post on Instagram A post shared by marra (@jamarrauh) It comes as Channel 9 reporter Tom Morris told Footy Classified that the Bulldogs player was keen to play for the Swans next season. 'My understanding is that Jamarra has told people that he would like to play for the Sydney Swans next year, in a perfect world,' he said. Morris added he was 'unsure' over whether that move would materialise, considering his current contract situation with the Western bulldogs. Many took to social media to issue messages of support to Ugle-Hagan, with one asking in the comments: 'Please come back'. Ugle-Hagan responeded: 'Coming x.' Another added: 'Only up,' to which the Bulldogs forward replied: 'Dat way.' Last month, Bulldogs boss Luke Beveridge issued his support to the 23-year-old star, stating: 'We hope Jamarra goes really well in this period of finding himself both in life and then in the game.' Former Crows star Rory Sloane said it 'was great to see him back' training but believes 'the next step' is to see him training with a football club. "My understanding is that Jamarra has told people close to him he would like to play for the Sydney Swans next year." @tommorris32 with a big development on the former number one pick's future. #9FootyClassified | Watch on Nine & 9Now 🖥️ — Footy on Nine (@FootyonNine) June 3, 2025 'It's great that he's comfortable sharing that on social media,' the Crows legend said to Footy Classified. 'He wants to play for the Sydney Swans, so that's step one right there. 'Step two - if I'm a club and I am serious about picking this guy up I need to see him training with a footy club. 'He needs to, too, because you cannot do training like that on your own. You need to have touch of footys, you need to be involved, surrounded by the best people. 'Footy clubs are great environments to go through hardship.' Sloan believes Ugle-Hagan needs to get himself back into training with the Bulldogs later on in the season if he is to get a move in the summer.

I moved to Australia for a dream life - but it wasn't all it's cracked up to be. Here's why I prefer my rainy hometown
An Irish woman who lived in Australia for 15 months has revealed the reasons she moved back home after the 'three-month honeymoon bubble burst'. Fitness influencer Maria Ryan, from Galway, said that while living in Australia was like being on 'a holiday in Spain but constantly', she felt like her life 'wasn't moving forward'. She said the Aussie soap Home and Away inspired her to move but when she landed in Sydney, it wasn't like the Australia she had envisioned. Maria described the city as more 'fast-paced' than she imagined so she relocated to the sunny Gold Coast. The 28-year-old said she loved the people and sunrises but admitted there was 'nothing really more to it than that'. Maria is now living back home in Galway where she says she feels more 'content' - and many were quick to agree with her hot takes. 'If you have ever lived in Australia, you're currently there or you've moved home or you've ever been there, you will know what I mean to say, you kind of decide within three months whether you think you're going to be there long term, whether it's just a fun thing for a year or so,' she explained in a TikTok video. The runner said she was originally based in Sydney when she relocated in September 2023 but quickly realised she 'had moved to the wrong part of Australia'. 'Everyone moves to Sydney, to be honest, and I'm not sure why that is,' she said. 'Sydney was more city, fast-paced. It kind of feels like a L ondon of Australia - that's my own fault because if you do enough research you would realise that. 'After going to visit the G old Coast and Byron, that was more the Australia that I had envisioned.' Maria said that after three months, it was clear to her that Australia was never going to be her 'forever home'. 'I obviously knew I wasn't going to permanently settle down there - it was one, too far away and then also, I really liked it, I don't know if you'll understand this if you have been there, it kind of feels like a holiday in Spain but constantly,' she said. 'There was a point where I felt like my life wasn't moving forward.' Maria said that on the Gold Coast she lived her 'Home and Away dream' doing daily sunrise runs and meeting 'amazing people' but felt there was 'nothing really more to it than that'. When she visited home for Christmas, she said she felt 'really content'. 'I see a lot of people's stories from Australia because obviously I have a lot of friends still over there and I see it and I'm so glad that they're having a great time and I'm so happy for them but it's not a missing thing that I have for it,' she explained. 'I've lived in America, England and Australia and I think when you're a hopper, you know that some places are going to be a forever home or others are going to be a one-year thing. 'I've been really content since I've been home.' Maria's thoughts struck a chord with some viewers who are planning to return to their home countries after living in Australia. 'I'm currently in Melbourne from the UK and I completely agree with you. That's why I've booked my ticket back and I'm grateful of the experience in Australia but as you said this chapter needs to be closed,' one woman said. 'I've just moved home after 18 months in Australia and agree with everything you said. It's a gorgeous country but has made me realise how to appreciate the little things at home and family time,' a second wrote. 'Love this, currently on the way home after 18 months in Perth and I absolutely loved it and will miss it so so so much but there is honestly no place like home in my personal opinion! Settling in Australia is not for everyone,' a third agreed. 'Can relate to this so much! Since I've come home from Australia, I feel like I've a similar life at home to being there, because I've taken the fitness side, love of the outdoors etc with me,' one viewer chimed in. 'So refreshing to hear this! It's definitely been glamorised on social media to move here but it's not that easy. You gave it such a good try, and how amazing is that!' someone added. However, others said they couldn't imagine moving anywhere else after settling in Australia. 'Just so hard to live back at home... the rent, cost of living. Don't think I would have much to go back to,' one expat wrote. 'I think I knew I loved it the first time I came. I didn't want to go home and then I spent seven years wanting to back. It's interesting hearing other people's perspectives,' another commented. 'I have definitely learned to appreciate England more when I go home now. I miss the cute countryside and pub culture, the proximity to other countries. Some things I don't miss so much.'
