Married At First Sight's Nasser Sultan enjoys a date night at Australian Fashion Week with glamorous SBS star girlfriend Karla Grant
The former Married at First Sight star and the SBS journalist looked loved up as they arrived at Carriageworks on Wednesday for the high-profile event.
Nasser, 58, rocked a colourful short sleeve paisley shirt he matched with a pair of casual cream slacks.
The red carpet regular wore his hair in an 80s flick back and accessorised with a pair of oversized tortoise shell glasses and a thick silver necklace.
He completed his look with a pair of black slip-on loafers.
Karla, 60, the ex-wife of well-known Australian ABC journalist Stan Grant, looked effortlessly elegant in a long-sleeved white shirt and black slacks.
For an added touch of style, Karla wore a pair of high-heeled boots decorated with silver studs.
Letting her long, fair hair fall over her shoulders, the journo accessorised with a pair of hoop earrings, which she matched with silver jewellery.
Carrying a tiny blue designer hand bag which she wore slung over one shoulder, Karla went for a low key natural make up look.
She also added a cute 'his and hers' touch to her ensemble with her own pair of oversized tinted glasses.
It comes after the couples romance appears to be going from strength to strength.
Earlier this week the former reality star bragged that his girlfriend was showing him 'love' by getting 'In Nasser We Trust' tattooed up her forearm.
'If you ever find someone like this one, don't ever let her go' Nasser said in the clips, filmed in a tattoo parlour, which he later posted to Instagram.
However when Karla showed off the tattoo, it featured the names of her three children instead.
'I've been stitched up!' Nasser wrote, before joking, 'You're dumped!'
Nasser proudly debuted his blossoming romance with the esteemed journalist in recent months.
Daily Mail Australia revealed in February that Nasser and Karla had been quietly dating for several months after reconnecting at a party last year.
'We've known each other for four years, to be honest. Then we just reconnected at a party and fell in love,' he told Daily Mail Australia.
'That was it. It was like love at first sight - just not Married At First Sight!'
Gushing about his girlfriend, Nasser added, 'She's gentle, smart, elegant, very well-educated, respected in the industry. And she's not fake. And she's not on Instagram.'
Indeed, while Nasser has often courted publicity since starring on MAFS back in 2018, Karla is renowned for her serious work as a presenter and producer for SBS's Indigenous current affairs program, Living Black, and largely shuns the spotlight.
The romance between the Walkley Award-winning journalist and the self-confessed reality TV 'troublemaker' may seem unexpected, but Karla herself said it best in a rare public statement:
'Nasser is one of a kind. He's attentive, caring and thoughtful and I see how he is with those who are closest to him. He's always helping his friends.'
She continued, 'Our union was very unexpected, but it is growing into something very special.'
The relationship marks a fresh chapter for Karla, who was previously married to journalist and broadcaster Stan Grant for 16 years before they split in 2000.
Stan famously left Karla for his Seven Network colleague Tracey Holmes, leading to one of the biggest media scandals of the decade.
Meanwhile, Nasser has continued to make headlines in his own right over the years - from pulling cheeky publicity stunts to faking romances for tabloid attention.
But insiders say his romance with Karla is '100 per cent genuine' and not just another ploy for the cameras.
The fact that Nasser, a man who once said, 'write whatever you want about me so long as you write about me,' has kept their relationship low-key until now, speaks volumes.
'I credit her for making me calm. I'm still a troublemaker - don't worry about that' he said.
'And yeah, it's just blown me away, seriously, how this whole thing's happened'.

TV bloodbath continues as another popular panel show is axed months after The Project faced the chopping block
ABC comedy panel show Question Everything has been axed after four seasons at the network. Launched in 2021, the show was billed as a fresh and funny antidote to fake news, and featured a panel of emerging comedians joined by hosts, creator Wil Anderson and comedian Jan Fran, to debunk misinformation, scams and fake news. It was produced CJZ, the same production company behind Anderson's other ABC show Gruen. News of Question Everything's cancellation was confirmed to Mumbrella this week, with executive producer Nick Murray expressing his sadness at the show's demise. 'The ABC has been wonderful in supporting locally developed and produced programs like Gruen and Question Everything,' he said. 'Australian shows and ideas are an endangered species now, so we appreciate the support of the ABC for original Australian programs. ABC comedy panel show Question Everything has been axed after four seasons at the network. Pictured: Host and creator Wil Anderson 'We did an enormous amount of work training both on-air talent and new writers through our various training initiatives. We put 43 new performers and 27 new writers through the training and intern schemes on Question Everything.' Murray only had positive words to say of co-hosts Anderson and Fran, saying they were 'terrific to work with', and that the team 'had a lot of fun' creating the show. The departure of adds to a growing list of high-profile cancellations in 2025, including Ten's The Project, which aired its final episode in June, and ABC's flagship debate program Q&A, which was farewelled by viewers in May. For now, Anderson will continue hosting Gruen and is currently on a stand-up tour of the country. Fran meanwhile recently launched a news enterprise called Ette Media alongside independent journalist Antoniette Lattouf, which focusses on promoting better media literacy. Fran and Lattouf also co-host a podcast called We Used To Be Journos, which delves into media analysis from experienced insiders, offering insights into how media works.

Major Aussie star's stunning sister is a dead ringer for her famous sibling - can you guess who it is?
The striking sister of an Australian singer and actor has been sharing glimpses of her modelling life on social media, and their resemblance is uncanny. In recent photos, she's seen posing with the poise and confidence of a seasoned model, drawing admiration from followers who can't stop pointing out the family resemblance. One striking image sees the marketing manager posing on a balcony, while another captures her at one of her famous brother's gigs. With her sculpted cheekbones and golden blonde hair, the 27-year-old could easily be mistaken for her famous sibling. So have you guessed which famous Australian she is the sister of? That's right, she is Sage Mellet, who is the younger sister of Troye Sivan. Sage is quickly making her mark as a social media star, amassing a staggering 152,000 followers on Instagram. Her famous brother recently revealed how proud he was of his sister, who collaborated with him on a fragrance available through their online store, TSU LANGE YOR. 'This is my beautiful sister. When she stole one of our TLY samples from my kitchen counter and wore it for 6 months straight (and then told us we "had to to make more" for her), it was clear what we needed to do,' Troye began. 'Her new fragrance is SAGE'S ROSE... guest creative directed by @sageybabey, it's rose in our way. Sweet, musky and mysterious.' Troye has always been open about his strong love for his family and frequently has them accompany him to A-list events. In November, he hilariously went rogue during his acceptance speech for Album of the Year at the 2024 ARIA Awards in Sydney - and made his mother blush. He dominated the evening, taking home two other awards - Best Pop Release for his third studio album Something to Give Each Other and Best Solo Artist. As the singer took to the stage to accept his third gong, Sivan revealed his latest album was inspired by the moments between Covid lockdowns in Melbourne when he was single and lonely. 'In those little glimpses of hope in between, I just started to go out and hook up with random people!' Sivan told the packed audience at Sydney 's Hordern Pavilion. 'I wrote this album about a random stranger that I never saw again,' he went on. Sivan's honesty left his mother Laurelle, who was in the audience, visibly shocked and at one point she was seen covering her ears. The Rush hitmaker went on to reveal that eventually he did cross paths with his one-night stand at a Melbourne wine bar. During their conversation, Sivan revealed their encounter helped provide inspiration for his award-winning album.

Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen's $100,000 splurge in Australia before their shock split
Details have emerged about the lavish Sydney 'bolthole' Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen used as a temporary home in Australia long before their high-profile split last year. According to reports, the pair splashed a staggering $100,000-a-week rent on the sprawling harbourside digs, which boast five bedrooms and seven bathrooms. Located in ritzy Darling Point, a mere 4 km from the CBD, the five-level home sits right on the waterfront and boasts stunning views of Double Bay. It's understood that the beautiful home, which covers 650 square metres, hosted the couple and their young family before they moved to Perth in 2021. The mega mansion later sold in 2022 for an eye-watering $24 million. The pair also lived in London and Los Angeles, but according to a report in they never bought property in Australia in their 14 years together. Designed by award-winning architects BKH, the Aussie home features an in-ground saltwater heated pool with swim jets, flanked on one side by a gorgeous floral mural set in tiles. Other highlights include open-plan living throughout, multiple entertainment areas, and a patio, ideal for alfresco dining. There's also a spiral staircase and a lift, a wine room and three gourmet kitchens. Meanwhile, the main bedroom features a dressing room and an oversized en-suite with a standalone bath. There is also a separate level that can be used as a 'guest space' and includes its own private bedroom and kitchen. Isla and Sacha shocked fans last April when the pair announced their split after marrying in 2010. The Australian actress, 48, wasted little time making a shrewd property move in the wake of settling her divorce with the British star, 53. Isla listed the old art deco apartment in Sydney 's Woollahra, which she bought before her relationship with Sacha, in September for $1.1million. First purchased by the former Home and Away star for just $171,500 in 1995, Isla was forced to slash the price on the two-bedroom, one-bathroom pad, in the midst of a sluggish market. Following the auction's cancellation, she shed another $100,000 from its price guide before returning it to the market at $990,000. The Now You See Me 3 star ultimately pocketed $930,000 when the cosy and well-maintained vintage property was auctioned off last October to an undisclosed private buyer. While working on huge Hollywood films like Wedding Crashers and Confessions of a Shopaholic, Isla had used her Sydney digs as a rental investment property. Isla and Sacha, who jointly filed to end their marriage in 2023, share two daughters and one son who they often keep out of the public eye. The couple first met back in 2001 and tied the knot in 2010, with the end of their marriage coming just a few years after relocating their family to Australia. Isla is believed to be looking for a home in North London. Sources recently told The Daily Mail's Alison Boshoff that she has a budget of £13million (AUD$24million) and was house-hunting in Hampstead. The pair finalised their divorce in June.
