Tammy Hembrow breaks silence over Bailey Smith dating rumours
Tammy Hembrow has broken her silence after she was seen having a date with AFL star Bailey Smith last weekend.
In typical influencer style, the 31-year-old shared a lip-synching TikTok with a subtle message to the haters, who have criticised the mum-of-three for moving on 'so quickly'.
The Saski activewear founder was spotted enjoying a lunch date with Smith at a Gold Coast restaurant on Saturday, two months after she announced her divorce from Love Island 's Matt Zukowski.
In the clip, which was posted yesterday and already has over 700k views, Hembrow mouthed the words from a Barbie movie clip that says: 'Don't be f***ing boring. This whole town is so f***ing boring. I don't care,' and rolls her eyes.
The message was clear – that Hembrow is just living her best newly-single life and doesn't care about critics who have said she has a 'revolving door' of men, 'can't be alone', and 'needs to have a break' from dating.
A lot of criticism was also aimed at the fact that her three kids are 'introduced to a new man every month'.
But Hembrow has now made a bold statement by basically saying that she's going to do whatever she feels is right for her and people need to lighten up.
It also hints that she might just be having fun with Smith, and it might not be headed towards a serious relationship.
What's more of a statement, however, is the fact that she was wearing a vintage Adidas jacket that belongs to Smith, suggesting he gave it to her to have while he jetted back to Melbourne and the two are apart.
In paparazzi pics from their date, Smith is even seen holding the jacket – and in one of his old Instagram posts, he's wearing it too.
Her loyal followers were loving the cheeky move, with one saying: 'The one thing about Tammy is she'll have a sound ready for any situation she's having in life'.
'I'm obsessed with you,' said another. 'Fire content'.
'God forbid a girl moves on quick,' a third commented.
'Honestly, good for you,' a fourth added. 'This is a great response,' another remarked.
Others picked up on the subtle clothing choice.
'Nice jacket,' said one. 'Where's your jacket from?' someone else inquired.
As a new photo emerged yesterday of Smith and Hembrow kissing at a table in a restaurant corner, it was clear they weren't trying to be discreet about their date, as onlookers told The Herald Sun they were making out for 'hours'.
Zukowski reportedly is devastated by the news, telling the outlet he's shocked and upset that Hembrow moved on so fast.
'I heard about this and it's not a nice feeling,' he said.
'We only broke up eight weeks ago. I just don't understand how someone can move on so quickly. It's been 48 days. I'm trying to focus on myself and heal.'
Meanwhile, Smith's ex has spoken out, saying she was 'put through the wringer 100 times over' in a past relationship, just days after the photos of Hembrow and Smith surfaced.
Melbourne content creator Izzy Armitage dated the Geelong player in 2021 for a few months and recently said on her Hear Me Out podcast that a high-profile ex – who she doesn't name – allegedly cheated on her, with one woman even sending her pictures of the supposed incident.
While Armitage has avoided naming her ex explicitly, fans are speculating she may be talking about Smith.
