Fans mock MasterChef Australia stars Declan Cleary and Sarah Todd over 'cringe' flirty Instagram messages - after confirming age-gap romance

Daily Mail​24-06-2025
MasterChef Australia 's lovebirds Declan Cleary and Sarah Todd are continuing to show off their age gap romance on social media.
This week, Declan appeared in a video posted to Instagram in which he made some fresh fish he caught in a creek.
The chef, 27, caught the eye of his love, Sarah, 38, who was quick to comment below the video.
'What a feast…and how gorgeous that spot is' she wrote to which Declan replied, 'Nearly as gorgeous as you'.
Fans replied to the flirty exchange, with one writing, 'ew gross…. I'm jealous' with someone else agreeing, 'so jealous'.

Another said 'cringe' while yet one more person chimed in with, 'stop it'.
Declan and Sarah both appeared in the Back To Win series this year, and have gone public with their romance on Instagram.
Recently, Declan left a suggestive comment on Sarah's recent video, which showed her pairing mango, salt and chilli in 'a weird food combination' that she claims just 'works'.
'What's your weirdest food combo that actually works? I'm testing out weird food pairings and had to kick it off with one I secretly love…' Sarah captioned the post, which has garnered over 4,000 likes since being posted.
'@HotToddyChilli Birdseye, mango and salt. Don't judge, it's already a fave in India! Swap it for green mango and it's game over,' she ended the post.
Fans of the foodie flooded the comments with praise for the unorthodox pairing, while also suggesting their own strange combinations.
However, Declan raised the temperature in the comments section with his own 'saucy' pairing.
'Wow I bet some hot toddy would work well on papaya with lime and salt,' he cheekily wrote.
The remark, though alluding to Sarah's chilli brand Hot Toddy, also came across as flirty, considering her surname is Todd.
Sarah and Declan went public with their relationship earlier this month, revealing that they have already moved in together following the high-pressure show.
Speaking to Stellar Magazine, Declan admitted that despite their big age gap, the pair 'instantly got along', which saw them spend lots of time together behind the scenes.
However, it wasn't until Sarah landed in an elimination challenge that Declan's feelings became apparent, and he knew he needed to tell her how he felt.
'As she's walking into the elimination [challenge], I said, 'Sarah, can I ask you something? Would you like to go on a date with me?' And she just looked at me and said, 'You're a bloody idiot',' he said.
While the poorly-timed invitation didn't land the way he thought it would, Sarah eventually came around to the idea of them together.
'After I got through the stress of the elimination and had a couple of days to recover, I realised it made sense,' she said.
For their first date, the pair visited Grampians National Park for a romantic weekend away, exploring markets, eating at picturesque restaurants and going for walks in the central Victoria highlands.
Now, after wrapping filming on the show, Declan has made the move from Sydney's Northern Beaches to Melbourne - along with his dog Sol - to be with Sarah and her 14-year-old son Phoenix.

Tammy Hembrow calls up her ex-fiancé Reece Hawkins for a 'goodnight' chat following split with Matt Zukowski... and everyone's saying the same thing

Tammy Hembrow has played a cheeky prank on ex-fiancé Reece Hawkins amid her split with husband Matt Zukowski. The couple, who share two children – Wolf, 8, and Saskia, 6 – ended their engagement in June 2018. And Tammy took to social media this week to indulge in a spot of phone pranking, that is currently going viral on TikTok. She shared a clip with her 2.2 million TikTok followers that showed her calling up Reece unannounced to say 'goodnight'. The clip began with a voice off-camera egging Tammy on with: 'Oh my gosh, call Reece. Do it.' 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. Laughing at the prospect of surprising her ex with an unsolicited call, Tammy giggled before dialling the number. 'Hey, I'm just calling to say goodnight,' Tammy said down the line to a confused Reece. 'What do you mean?' Reece replied before Tammy answered: 'Can't I just say goodnight to you? What do you mean? 'I'm the mother of your children. I can't say goodnight? A friendly goodnight?' Struggling to get his head around the call, Reece asked again why Tammy was calling, and she replied: 'Goodnight, see you later.' Neglecting to reciprocate the sentiment, Reece ended the phone call with an abrupt: 'Yeah alright, loser,' which elicited a hearty laugh from Tammy. Tammy's cheeky post sent her fans into overdrive, with many pleading with the influencer to get back together with her ex. 'They broke up years ago and I'm still in denial. Tammy & Reece, come home,' one fan wrote. Another pined: 'I can't be the only one that is praying for this reconciliation,' while a third offered a hopeful: 'Please let this be the start of the reunion we have all been waiting for.' It didn't end there, either, with one fan admitting they would 'never get over' the former lovebirds reuniting. 'I can't handle this if they don't get back together,' they wrote, while another fan replied: 'Still in denial. If you guys got back together it would break the internet.' It comes after Matt Zukowski announced the couple's separation in a sombre Instagram Story last month, telling fans the decision was not taken lightly. 'It's with a heavy heart I share that Tammy and I have decided to separate,' Matt began. 'Both of us have struggled with making this decision, however we need to do what is right for ourselves and her three children. 'This wasn't a decision we took lightly. Our time together will always be cherished and never forgotten,' he added, before thanking fans for their support and asking for privacy. Despite their short-lived marriage, both parties have asked for privacy as they adjust to life post-breakup. 'We appreciate everyone's support and space at this time as we navigate the split,' Matt concluded in his emotional post. Tammy later addressed the split in an emotional TikTok video, telling fans she would be getting a divorce. 'I don't want to get into the details, and I want to be sensitive to everyone involved,' she told fans. 'Obviously, when you marry someone, you do it thinking that it is going to be forever, and I blame no one but myself,' Tammy continued while breaking down in tears. 'I've made not the best choices when it comes to relationships. I'm good at putting on rose-coloured glasses. 'Obviously, the worst part for me is that I have kids. I don't care about me – I know I will be okay – but I feel awful.' After splitting with Tammy back in 2018, Reece moved on with American model London Goheen, whom he married in 2020. The couple welcomed a son, Stone, in 2021, before calling it quits a year later.

Will Oasis make it to Wembley? Fans fear Gallagher feud could END £400m tour - with 'overwhelmed Noel and dominant Liam staying apart while bookies cash in on cancellation bets'

The Gallagher brothers' feud is one of the most iconic in music history. Since Oasis formed in 1991, Liam and Noel, aged 52 and 58 respectively, have caused controversy with their hedonism, iconic showbiz wars and raucous on-stage presence - all prior to their acrimionious split in 2009, which left fans bereft. After years of public animosity, Oasis lovers were overjoyed last year when they put their differences aside for a £400m, 41 date reunion tour, which kicked off in Cardiff last week ahead of shows in UK, Ireland, Australia, the US and Mexico. Despite delight over the return, concerns have arose among superfans that the warring siblings may not make it to their upcoming gigs - including Wembley later this month - thanks to seemingly dominant behaviour, different hotel stays and more. Fans, some of whom scandalously spent thousands on tickets, have taken to social media to voice their concerns over the band making it to their own dates, while bookies' have also been taking bets on the likelihood of cancellation. All does not appear to be lost however, as Liam has shown his dedication by vowing to stay sober for the duration of the tour while 'military style' contingency plans have been laid to keep the duo separated while off-stage. Meanwhile, the pair's body language on-stage has been considered by experts to show Noel looks 'overwhelmed' while Liam remains the 'dominant' presence. FANS' FEARS Fans voiced their concerns on X, with many hypothesising the tour would not see its end due to the brothers' feelings towards one another. Users took to the site to pen: 'Please finish the tour without fighting... The tour will be lucky to finish all dates [mark my words]... 'They still hate each other... Bet they don't finish the tour... It's not Oasis though, it's the Liam and Noel show. I bet they don't finish the tour.' KEEP AWAY It has been reported that lengths have been taken to ensure the pair remain amiable - by working to keep them separate while not performing. The Gallaghers will reportedly be kept apart when not on stage in a 'military style operation' during their much-anticipated reunion tour. There will be separate dressing rooms and transport to avoid a clash and resulting 'PR and financial nightmare'. Fans voiced their concerns on X, with many hypothesising the tour would not see its end due to the brothers' feelings towards one another BODY LANGUAGE Following Friday's opening gig in Cardiff, body language expert Judi James spoke exclusively to MailOnline about the duo's on-stage presence. Analysing the on-stage reunion, Judi stated that Liam was the 'dominant' one who was 'firmly in control', 'instigating all the action' as he led them on stage. Despite Liam proudly 'presenting' his brother to the audience with an air of confidence, contrastingly, Judi observes, Noel appeared somewhat more trepidatious, suggesting he was 'overwhelmed by the emotion of the moment.' She told MailOnline: 'It's the body language details that are so important to the fans here as the Gallagher narrative arc is displayed to a breathless nation. 'The walk-out ritual signals unity of course but the status and instigation signals are important. The glorious monochrome back view photo is intended to allow us to share the experience and see what they were seeing.' Of Liam's behaviour, she explained: 'What we do see is Liam very firmly in control, instigating all the action. His arm is around Noel's shoulders as though he's the more dominant brother and as though he's the one finally leading his brother back out to an adoring audience. 'His maracas are held high in a signal of celebratory victory and they even form a V-shape to add to that message of victory. 'When they hold raised hands it's actually Liam grabbing his brother's wrist and holding it up, again as though presenting him proudly to the fans.' Commenting on Noel's conduct in comparison, Judi explained: 'Noel cuts a very different figure here. Walking with his arms down at his sides, almost like a small child, his lip-clamp and his lowered eyes suggest he is overwhelmed by the emotion of the moment.' OODS ON Bookmakers William Hill have led the way in taking bets on whether the brothers will manage to complete the tour. The website lists: 'The stage is set and all eyes will be on the Principality Stadium for the opening night of the Oasis Live '25 reunion tour but will the band manage to stick together for the entire run of concerts? 'Punters expecting a clash between the Gallaghers can back the tour to end before the final 2025 date, scheduled for 23rd November in Sao Paolo, Brazil, at 4/1. Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: 'Whether Liam and Noel can keep their tempers in check in the coming months remains to be seen, and we're 4/1 that they call time on their reunion before the final 2025 tour date in November. 'However, the 1/6 about Oasis playing together next year suggests this reunion could be more than a short-term project.' DEDICATION Despite concerns, the group do however appear determined to keep things running smoothly with sights to concluding the tour. It was revealed prior to the tour kicking off that Liam is planning not to booze during the shows after previously admitting he stopped drinking on stage after his erratic performance with Oasis at Wembley in 2000. A source told The Sun: 'Liam's just returned from a boozy holiday and now plans to be in lock-down for the foreseeable to focus on getting fit for the tour. 'He is planning on being sober ahead of and on tour with Oasis. He's actually used cutting out booze to help him prepare and also to get through the shows before.' As well as his focus on sobriety, the brothers spoke ambitiously about their capabilities while announcing the industry-shattering comeback. In the video, which was released last year, Liam said: When we both come together, you have greatness', while Noel sweetly stated:'I know my brother better than anybody else. This is it, this is happening.' Despite their feud, sources claimed in PJ Harrison's book In The Fall And Rise Of Oasis that the brothers 'still really love each other'. An insider also added that Liam was the one that made peace with Noel, explaining: 'He's a great one for making, you know, peace. He's the one that will make the peace and bring things back together with people.' In a post on X when he was asked who called first him or Noel, Liam replied: 'I called him but don't tell anyone as I don't want folk thinking I'm a soft lad and stuffs keep it between me n you cheers x.' Representatives declined to comment when approached by MailOnline.
