Sunrise host Natalie Barr sizzles in a swimsuit as she plunges into freezing ice bath live on air
Sunrise host Natalie Barr showed off her incredible figure as she plunged into an ice bath live during Tuesday's breakfast program.
The presenter, 57, and her co-host Matt Shirvington were chatting to Australian boxer Harry Garside about using the bath for muscle recovery.
Natalie then stripped into a black swimsuit as she agreed to jump into an ice bath with the sports star.
Before getting into the water, Harry explained: 'Ice baths are obviously exceptional for athletes. But I also think breath work in general is good to calm yourself in chaos.
'Boxing is so chaotic. It's so full on. You get into an ice bath and something similar and you can control yourself with a breath.'
Matt then said: 'Well jump in guys when you're ready. Good luck.'
After getting into the ice bath, Natalie joked the feeling was so uncomfortable that she felt like she was going into childbirth.
She continued to breath loudly, before admitting: 'I hate this.'
After getting out of the bath, Natalie explained 'it was really cold on the legs and really hurts the legs' before asking Harry how he felt.
'I feel it in my feet and calves the most. I think because it's the furthest thing from the heart so the blood circulation isn't getting there,' he said.
'But honestly I feel amazing right now. I feel like I've had a double shot of coffee.'
It comes after Natalie slammed those who booed Welcome to Country at Melbourne 's Anzac Day Dawn Service last week.
Thousands of people had turned out in the city's quiet, pre-dawn darkness on Friday to commemorate those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.
But it was a group of between six and ten people whose heckles and boos during Bunurong elder Mark Brown's Welcome to Country who cast a shadow over what was supposed to be a touching commemoration.
Natalie strongly condemned the behaviour, calling it 'disgusting' and saying she didn't care if people were tired of 'Welcome to Country' ceremonies.
'Save your protests.
'We do not care what you are sick of. Today is not the day to share it.'
The small group's voices were picked up by microphones and loudspeakers during the Welcome to Country, clearly audible to the hushed crowd and broadcast media.
'It's our country!' one yelled. 'We don't have to be welcomed,' screamed another.
The boos and shouts lasted the entire three minutes of the address, with Mr Brown never seeming to waver.
Victorian Governor Margaret Gardner delivered the official Anzac Day address after, which acknowledged Aboriginal Australians - prompting further boos.
'How many more? This is s***,' one man reportedly shouted.
A woman then shouted 'always was, always will be' - before the crowd erupted with applause and helped drown out the disquiet.

Harry Styles spotted dancing up a storm at London music festival
Harry Styles is not missing out on this year's selection of incredible music festival headliners, even if he's not back on stage just yet. The As It Was hitmaker, 31, has been taking time away from the recording studio after the success of his Love On Tour in 2023. His last on-stage performance was in July last year, making a surprise appearance to duet with headliner Stevie Nicks at BST Hyde Park. On Saturday, he dipped his toe back into the music world and headed to Victoria Park to watch Jamie XX perform at Lido Festival. Possibly, he was warming up his dancing shoes ahead of a secret set at Worthy Farm — or just heading to the festival for fun. Fans won't know until Glastonbury kicks off in three weeks,but Harry looked incredibly happy dancing the night away with friends at Lido. Somehow, the star had managed to get himself right to the barricade without anyone noticing. The One Direction heartthrob rocked a low-key look including a blue cap, a windbreaker and a jumper to protect against the rainy London weather. Dancing in the busy crowd appeared to get Harry a little hot and sweaty as he ditched his jumper to reveal a grey t-shirt with a smiley face on it. While the Watermelon Sugar singer is known for his bold on-stage looks, however, he keeps his street style far less flamboyant (other than the short shorts). Lido Festival was packed for Jamie XX's headlining slot, which was supported by acts such as Sampha, Romy, Skrillex and Nia Archives. Fans were loving Harry's gig-going antics on social media with Moondancerry writing on X: I love that Harry Styles is just living his best life during this break and we get these small glimpses into that🥹.' His break has included a baffling side quest to the Vatican City when he was spotted in the crowd waiting for smoke to confirm the new Pope. On May 8, the papal conclave in the Vatican chose the new Pope, and white smoke began billowing out of the Sistine Chapel. A bell marked the election of Robert Francis Prevost as the new Pope, who will be known as Pope Leo XIV. Another side quest saw Harry speedily run the Tokyo marathon, placing 6010 out of approximately 38,000. More Trending Mainly, he has been seen around London, where he owns a house, catching up with friends and soaking up the sun in some very tiny shorts. As for Lido Festival, the gigs continue across the next month with sets from Turnstile, London Grammar, and the Brat icon herself Charli XCX. Charli is dominating festival season along with Chappell Roan as both pop icons take over Primavera Sound with Sabrina Carpenter. The Apple hitmaker will head to Worthy Farm later this month while Chappell plays Sziget Festival as well as Reading and Leeds in August. Got a story?

Prince Harry's latest stunt sends a terrible message – the King should sever him for good, says expert
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) PRINCE Harry has reportedly considered changing his surname to Spencer, stepping away from his family's name, Mountbatten-Windsor. While reports say the Duke of Sussex was counselled against the decision by Princess Diana's brother, Earl Spencer, royal experts have claimed that it 'sends a message' to the royals. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 Prince Harry should be cut off by King Charles after wanting to 'ditch' his Mountbatten-Windsor surname, claims a royal expert Credit: Getty 7 It was reported that Harry has reportedly considered changing his surname to Spencer, after Princess Diana Credit: AFP 7 Harry is said to have consulted Diana's brother, Earl Spencer about the idea Credit: Getty Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, former Sun Royal Correspondent Charles Rae said: 'I think as well that this is another Harry not knowing what he wants to do. 'It was only less than a month ago that he was pleading for a reconciliation with his father and his brother. 'And the next thing we hear, and I think the story was well sourced, he wants to change the name from Mountbatten-Windsor to Spencer. 'Well, that is sending a terrible message to the royal family that he doesn't really want a reconciliation. 'He wants to be completely severed from the royal family. 'And I think the king should grant his wish. 'I think he should sever him from the royal family.' The 40-year-old asked Princess Diana's brother - Earl Spencer - for advice during a visit to the UK, it is claimed. But the Duke of Sussex was reportedly told the legal side of doing so would be too difficult. A friend of Harry's told the Mail: "They had a very amicable conversation and Spencer advised him against taking such a step." There's nothing much left of 'erratic' Harry in terms of a man, he's just watching Meghan crack on Royal correspondent Sarah Hewson added on Royal Exclusive: 'I mean, is it to send a message to the royal family? 'Is it to say, 'ok, fine, you don't want to talk to us, then we're not a part of this anymore'. 'Is it because he feels much closer to his Spencer relatives? 'They are the ones who turned up for the 10th anniversary Invictus service at St Paul's, for example. 7 If Prince Harry changed his surname, his daughter would be known as Lilibet Diana Spencer Credit: Instagram 7 On The Sun's Royal Exclusive show Charles Raw and Sarah Hewson spoke to host Bronte Coy Credit: Supplied 'There weren't any members of the royal family there. Is it to honour his mother? 'Some more cynical commentators have suggested, well, it would be very good marketing in the United States to have the Spencer name and Lilibet would then be Lilibet Diana Spencer.' SURNAME CONFUSION Harry's children go by Mountbatten-Windsor - which combines the Royal Family's name of Windsor and the Duke of Edinburgh's surname. However, Meghan Markle claimed in her Netflix show that her surname is now Sussex. The couple became the Sussexes when the late Queen gave them the titles when they married in 2018. 7 Meghan said on Netflix that her surname is Sussex Credit: Netflix Harry previously had the title Prince Henry of Wales. But on his wedding day, he became The Duke of Sussex, a title which had been vacant since 1843. Meghan was seen to firmly correct Mindy Kaling after her friend called her Markle on her Netflix show. In an episode on With Love, Meghan, the Duchess said: "It's so funny you keep saying 'Meghan Markle' – you know I'm Sussex now. "You have kids and you go, 'No, I share my name with my children'. "I didn't know how meaningful it would be to me but it just means so much to go 'This is OUR family name. Our little family name.' " Mountbatten-Windsor is the surname of descendants of the late Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. 7 Relations have been tense between Prince Harry and his UK family in recent years Credit: Getty Questions were raised when Harry and Meghan called their daughter a princess for the first time in 2023, when her christening was announced. The children were then officially named as prince and princess on the Royal Family's official website. Archie and Lilibet are sixth and seventh in line to the throne. Before their titles were listed as prince and princess on the royal website, they were down as Master Archie Mountbatten-Windsor and Miss Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor. They gained the titles when King Charles became the King, as they are grandchildren of the monarch.

New babies announced in unusual way in Switzerland as people left baffled
A woman who has moved to Switzerland has shared interesting insights she has discovered since moving - and people are only just finding out about the sweet way that new babies are celebrated The arrival of a newborn is always a cause for celebration, with baby showers, 'welcome to the world ' parties, and an array of gifts, balloons, and cards marking the occasion worldwide. Yet, many have only just cottoned on to the charming tradition that heralds the birth of babies in Switzerland. Curiosity has been piqued among travellers to Switzerland who've spotted curious signs adorned with animals or characters, alongside a name and date of birth, leaving them puzzled about their meaning. An Australian woman, now residing in Switzerland and known as Aussie Spat mum online, has taken to sharing fascinating customs she's encountered since her move. In a video, the mum revealed: "In Switzerland, when a baby is born, the whole village gets the news... literally!". She elaborated: "Birth signs with the baby's name and date of birth pop up on buildings, balconies and front yards to welcome the newest little one!". These birth announcements, referred to as 'Geburtstafeln', are essentially birth signs usually mounted on poles or trees. They remain on display until family and friends have visited to fete the new arrival, after which they are removed. Commenting on the Instagram post, an individual explained: "Let me share how it's done in central Switzerland: you get them from friends, family, godparents or your 'verein'. After one year, the parents are supposed to take them down with a 'Täfelifescht'. This means you organise a barbecue or similar social gathering event where all the people are invited who got you a sign." Another Swiss person chimed in: "We use this as an open competition for the worst baby names." While one commenter was charmed by the tradition: "I need to experience this land of joy and happiness." One user shared that they follow a similar custom in the Netherlands, while someone else noted: "In Germany some people show it by hanging newborn clothes or a little wooden stork outside as well." On Reddit, a Nidwalden resident mentioned: "I live in Nidwalden, close to Lucerne and they're so normal here that it's seen as odd when people don't do it. They're called 'Geburtstafeln', so literally 'birth signs'. They are hanged on the balcony when a child is born and they have the name of the child and its birth date written on them." Another Reddit user added: "This is common in Switzerland especially in the German speaking part. They have this and later on the kids keep them." Someone else pointed out former US practices, stating that although this used to be more common stateside, "police recommend against it because it puts your child at risk of abduction." Meanwhile, Welcome Switzerland highlighted the unique cultural practice on Facebook, saying: "In Switzerland, welcoming a newborn means more than just cards and social media posts!". "Families proudly announce the arrival with cute front yard signs, especially in rural areas! Does your country have a unique way to celebrate new arrivals?". According to website Geburtstafeln Schweiz, these signs can be quite expensive, costing between £90 and £120 for one.
