Ben Cousins like you have never seen him before! Embarrassing picture of the AFL great emerges from wild wedding ceremony
Ben Cousins has become a laughing stock on the internet after an embarrassing picture of the AFL great made its way around the media sphere. Ben, 46, who played for the West Coast Eagles and the Richmond Tigers between 1996 and 2010, attended what's being dubbed as ' Perth 's most outrageous wedding' to celebrate the marriage of Lisa and Josh from Ellenbrook. However, it's Ben's attire that really had his fans stumped. The footballer attended the nuptials dressed as Woody from Toy Story, complete with the iconic yellow and red striped shirt, a cow print vest, a red scarf around his neck and ye old cowboy hat. And while the ensemble may seem bizarre for a wedding, it certainly wasn't the weirdest outfit on the big day. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The ceremony, which took place at Barrett Lane Function Centre in the Swan Valley, saw attendees wear weird and wonderful costumes as the bride and groom put a unique twist on exchanging vows. To name a few outstanding details during the nuptials, the bride skydived into the ceremony, the groom dressed as the Devil, radio host Kymba Cahill was the celebrant and wore a dress made of balloons and the bouquet was made out of broccoli. What's more, Ben himself was a flower boy and made the wedding cake. The crazy wedding was hosted by Mix 94.5's Pete & Kymba with Ben Cousins after Lisa and Josh won a competition on-air that saw Western Australia listeners choose their wedding for them. The ceremony's every detail from start to finish - including the location and attire - was determined by listener votes on Instagram, resulting in the ultimate Western Australia wedding. Perth radio personality Kymba revealed back in 2023 that beyond her on-air persona she leads a clandestine life as a marriage celebrant with a rock and roll twist. The radio host underwent formal training to officiate weddings for her close friends. Of course, the media star has now began discreetly presiding over union ceremonies on Mix 94.5 Pete & Kymba's breakfast show. 'I am a celebrant. I am an authorised marriage celebrant,' she excitedly revealed to PerthNow.. 'I became authorised over a year ago and I have just been keeping it a secret.' Describing the process, she shared: 'I did the standard legal celebrant training.

Perth radio host's return date confirmed after long absence
The return of beloved Perth breakfast radio host Nathan Morris has finally been confirmed after an extended absence from the airwaves. A key pillar of the Nathan, Nat & Shaun trio, Morris has been largely unheard and unsighted in the Nova 93.7 studio since early March. On Friday, the commercial station took to social media to tease his return, slated for Monday, May 5. 'Who can ride a penny-farthing and is also back on Monday?' a post read. 'Wonder who it could be?' If you'd like to view this content, please adjust your . To find out more about how we use cookies, please see our Cookie Guide. While breakfast stalwarts Shaun McManus and Nat Locke had been entrusted to fill the void, along with several other rotating station figures, fans had been begging for the star to re-take his seat after two months away. And while many have continued to enquire about whereabouts, the reason for his absence is still yet to be revealed. 'So exciting that Nathan is back. You have been missed but Nat and Shaun (and Ross) did a great job xx,' one fan wrote. 'What happened to Nathan we all miss him?' another asked.

Credit: Nova 93.7 In response to the Kalgoorlie-raised personality's return, some listeners posited a connection between his time adrift and that of competing host Kymba Cahill of Mix 94.5. 'And Kimba from 94.5 returned Thursday!! I bet ya $50 they were on something together!! Yay Nathan is back,' one social media user said. However, Cahill — who has sparked similar speculation after extended time away — addressed her absence on Thursday in a candid message to listeners. 'I'll just be upfront about it, the truth is I needed a break', she told co-host Pete Curulli. 'I won't go into the specifics, it was largely triggered by some really hurtful, nasty things that were said online about me towards me. 'I was harrassed and bullied, it took a huge toll on me. I shut down all of my socials because I needed time to recover and find some head space so that I could reset and return to this show.' The latest development in Morris' absence was foreshadowed on March 21 when NOVA advised PerthNow of his expected return timeline. 'Nathan will be on personal leave from the breakfast show for the current survey period. Nat and Shaun will continue to co-host the show while Nathan takes a break,' the network said. Remarkably, the affable presenter's lack of airtime did not get in the way of Nova's favourable survey ratings result — announced earlier this week. Among the station's achievements were the titles of Perth's most popular breakfast show, as well as most popular station. Dave McClung, Group Programming Operations & Commercial Integration Director, described Nova 93.7's best ratings result in two years as 'absolutely brilliant'.
