Jackie 'O' Henderson breaks silence on romance rumours with hunky NRL star Adam Muir after they were spotted on cosy stroll in Sydney
Jackie 'O' Henderson has shut down rumours she's dating former NRL star Adam Muir, after the pair were spotted together on a low-key stroll through Sydney's eastern suburbs.
The 50-year-old radio queen was pictured walking alongside the retired footballer on Sunday, with fans quickly speculating that Jackie may have found a new man.
But on Monday morning, she set the record straight live on The Kyle & Jackie O Show, confirming she is still single and laughed off the romance rumours.
Gold Logie nominee and A Current Affair host Ally Langdon joined the show as a guest and cheekily probed Jackie on her apparent new flame.
'Not according to the paper today,' Ally said after Kyle joked Jackie was still 'slinging it out there with no buyers'.

Jackie responded with a laugh, 'I know, I know. Definitely.'
Kyle then quipped, 'In all honesty, who goes for a walk with someone they're rooting? When you're rooting, you're rooting. You're not out.'
Jackie quickly chimed in: 'You're in bed together. You're in the home.'
Confirming once and for all that she's not romantically involved with the former Newcastle Knights player, Jackie said: 'That's right, Kyle. That's right, I guess… But no, I'm still single, Ally. So, I don't know.'
Ally then cheekily replied: 'But you've got lots of options.'
To which Jackie shrugged: 'You know, I'm coasting. It's fine, you know.'
It comes after photos published over the weekend showed the KIIS FM presenter deep in conversation with Adam during a casual afternoon walk, sparking curiosity among fans about the nature of their relationship.
The duo reportedly met through mutual friends, with Jackie dressed in a sporty pink Acne Studios T-shirt layered over a black long sleeve, while Adam, who now works in mining and lives in the Hunter Valley, looked relaxed in gym gear.
The outing comes after the KIIS FM star revealed she was 'very happy' on Her Best Life podcast alongside her co-host and manager Gemma O'Neill.
In a recent episode, Jackie confessed to having led 'sexless' relationships in the past but was now in 'such a good place'.
'In all my relationships, I have allowed it to get to a brother and sister dynamic,' she told Gemma in an emotional segment.
The lack of intimacy led to Jackie feeling 'undesirable', making the partnership 'unfixable'.
Still, Jackie said that her experience was not unique, with many of her friends having lived through a similar situation.
'The more I spoke to women, the more I realised this is actually really common in a lot of marriages. Like there's just no sex anymore,' she said.
She then revealed that, despite her past rough patch, she was currently on the up.
'I feel like I've probably let go of everything and I just feel so content and happy right now,' she opened up.
'When you have no men troubles in your life, God, life's good. It just feels really freeing.'
Jackie recently admitted she is struggling to let go of an ex.
She discussed moving on while appearing on a recent episode of the Her Best Life podcast.
The radio queen told co-host Gemma that she was dealing with heartbreak.
Despite being 'over' the relationship, Jackie said that in her weaker moments she thinks, 'That's my person'.
Jackie said she hoped to 'completely let go' of the man but admitted that she 'doesn't know how' - but agreed that the man 'didn't show up' for her.
The media personality never disclosed who the man was and has been private about her dating life.
She was last linked to former toyboy Jack Tyerman - who has since announced his engagement to another woman.
Tyerman and his love Asha Dillon shared the news of their upcoming marriage late last year.
Jackie also spoke about the relationship in August 2023.
While Jackie admitted she was 'dating' at the time, she maintained she and Jack were 'just friends'.
'No, Jack is not my boyfriend. We're not in a relationship, not my boy toy,' Jackie told Kyle.
'Jack is a good friend of mine. I know him through a friend of ours. We didn't meet on a dating app or anything like that.'
The media personality went on to say she was ultimately 'to blame' for the romance rumours after she told Daily Mail Australia she was dating someone during a Logies interview.
'In my mind, I'm dating and I've been on a few dates, so I said maybe [I'm dating], but I probably should have said, Maybe, we'll see what happens,' she confessed.
Jackie's marriage to her ex-husband Lee Henderson fell apart in 2018. They share one daughter Kitty, 14.

AFL WAG Bec Judd shows off her incredible figure and pert derrière in skimpy bikini at Cable Beach during Western Australian holiday with family
Bec Judd has flaunted her incredible figure while enjoying a beach day with her family in Western Australia. The AFL WAG, 42, posted a slew of snaps to Instagram on Tuesday documenting her visit to Broome alongside her husband Chris Judd, 41, and their four kids Oscar, 14, Billie, 11, and twin boys Tom and Darcy, nine. 'Cable Beach in July > everywhere else,' she captioned the post, which has received nearly 4,000 likes. Bec wore a $1,200 Celine bucket hat and $940 Celine sunglasses for the outing, along with a black, strappy bikini by Aussie swimsuit brand Bond Eye. Her long, trim pins were on full display, as were her ripped abs, as she frolicked in the water and took pictures of her brood. 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. One picture captured the Aussie model walking towards the horizon as she showed off her pert derriere in the cheeky black bikini The post started off with a sweet selfie showing Bec and her youngest Tom lying on a towel, with the pair beaming for the camera. The second slide showed her ripped hubby standing shirtless in the ocean with their kids, which she captioned: 'DILF and our x4 children.' One picture captured the Aussie model walking towards the horizon as she showed off her pert derriere in the cheeky black bikini. The family played cricket on the sand, enjoyed swims in the crystal blue water and laid out on towels on the pristine beach. Bec and her family rocked minimal clothes for the sunny beach day, a far cry from the wind and rain currently hitting the New South Wales coastline. On Monday, the designer took to Instagram to reveal she and the brood had fled Aussie winter in Melbourne for the summer sun on the Western Coast. In the snaps, Bec languished poolside in some skimpy red swimwear with blue accents as she worked on her tan. 'There's no other place in Australia I'd rather be in Winter than Broome, WA' Bec wrote in her caption alongside the images. It comes after Bec shared a peek at her latest cosmetic work. Last week, Bec paid a visit to aesthetic nurse and former clinical specialist Claire McGuiness, who offers a 'conservative approach to facial rejuvenation' using radio frequency microneedling, LED therapies, and injectables. 'Give me Kris Jenner's neck without the surgery,' Bec captioned a snapshot of her neck after what appears to be an 'Exion' treatment. The media personality showed off three rows of distinct red and swollen bumps peppered across her neck after her appointment. Exion, a type of radio frequency microneedling, creates controlled micro-injuries and applies heat to the skin, which can cause temporary redness, swelling, and bumps as the skin responds and repairs itself. The treatment boosts hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin without needles.

‘The ultimate dating series': Blind Date is back – as an absolute Frankenstein's monster of a show
Good news: Blind Date is returning to our screens. Weird news: it won't be on television, you probably won't watch it and it may not technically count as Blind Date. But let's concentrate on the good news first. On Monday, Disney+ announced three new unscripted TV shows. One is a sort of Made in Chelsea spin-off about parenthood, another sounds like The Kardashians except it has Wayne and Coleen Rooney in it, and the third is the return of Blind Date, which Disney calls the 'ultimate dating series'. No host or release date has been revealed yet, but that doesn't matter. It's Blind Date, for crying out loud. Everyone knows Blind Date. A person has to pick the most desirable option from a panel of three strangers who are hidden from view. Once they have matched, they go on holiday and then report back. And that's it, over and over again. If that seems slightly staid, that's because it is. Even in its day, there was something uncomfortably robotic about Blind Date. The dates were chosen through a stilted exchange of scripted lines, and the contestants themselves were so relentlessly chaste you might as well have been watching footage of toddlers visiting a zoo. It was a classic of the terrestrial-era form: 'Was it good or was it the only thing on?' It is also a good example of the changing television landscape. In its prime, when it was presented by the now late Cilla Black, Blind Date was watched by 18.2 million viewers. When that run ended in 2003, the figure had plummeted to 5 million. That was still 3 million more than the number who tuned in for the 2017 revival on Channel 5, hosted by Paul O'Grady. If the new Disney version gets even a quarter of that figure, it will probably be deemed a success. More pressingly, we now live in a firmly post-Blind Date world. In the years since Cilla ruled the airwaves, the dating show spectrum has burst into a dazzling kaleidoscope. Simply having a brief verbal exchange with some strangers, then spending a long weekend in Benidorm will no longer cut it. In the last 15 years alone, we have had karaoke-based dating shows (Sing Date), sensorily deprived dating shows (Dating in the Dark), neurodiverse dating shows (Love on the Spectrum), dating shows for exhibitionists (Naked Attraction) and dating shows for people who wish that the human-trafficking scene from Taken was a fully immersive entertainment experience (Take Me Out). This is only the tip of the iceberg. For decades, the format has adopted reality TV with The Bachelor, Love Island and countless others. There is even Married at First Sight, which seems less designed for singletons than for all their judgmentally dismissive friends. In this landscape, Blind Date looks woefully outdated. Perhaps this is why the new iteration is promising a fleet of changes. To quote the press release: 'Our daters will see if for ever love can truly grow as they spend the summer living together, but potential new partners are always lurking behind the wall.' Which does sound like a comprehensive overhaul, dragging the show into the 21st century by lingering on the relationships rather than the very first interaction. It also – almost! – hints that the contestants might be sexually attracted to each other this time around, which will make a change from the Cilla era, which tended to vault from polite conversation straight to marriage. Then again, this new format has an air of Ship of Theseus about it. What Disney seems to be making has so little in common with the original Blind Date that it doesn't seem much like Blind Date at all. It sounds a bit like Frankenstein's monster, with so many ungainly new elements bolted on that it is destined to rise up one day and murder its oppressors. It goes without saying that the new version may be exactly what the current television landscape requires – and that it could end up running as long as the original. But still, what would Cilla think?

Lions star Blair Kinghorn lifts the lid on a whirlwind 48 hours as he celebrates Toulouse's Top 14 title triumph in Paris, before flying to Australia the next day - as he reveals his favourite position too
On the sidelines of Lions training in eastern Brisbane, Blair Kinghorn pedalled away by himself on an exercise bike. The Scottish full-back had a night of Parisian celebrations to flush out of his legs. Having won the Top 14 title with Toulouse on Saturday evening, he danced away in his speedos, partying until the early hours of Sunday morning. 'We got back to the hotel just before three,' he revealed. 'Then we had a party in the hotel with all the families, friends and some sponsors, which was really good. And then I was heading to the airport in Paris about midday. 'My bag was already packed. We came up to Paris for the final on Thursday, so I had to make sure all my s*** was ready before going up on Thursday. Now the Scottish star's attention is with the Lions having arrived in Australia on Monday night 'Luckily, my mum and my wife were there to help me take everything up, because packing for two separate things is a bit stressful. I think I've got everything. All you need is your boots and your passport, so that's fine!' A driver was waiting for Kinghorn at Brisbane Airport on Monday evening, shuttling him straight to the team hotel in the city. Lights were out by the time he arrived, meaning he gave captain Maro Itoje a fright when he bundled into their twin room just before midnight. 'I got in about quarter to 12,' said Kinghorn. 'I was thinking, "Surely there won't be anyone in the room". I was with Maro. I go in, chuck the bags down and up he pops. I was like "Uh, sorry". He'd been sleeping and I woke him up. It was funny, he woke up, shook my hand and went straight back to sleep.' Kinghorn's arrival will provide the Lions with a timely boost. Elliot Daly delivered a classy, influential performance from full-back against the Western Force, although the versatile Englishman is more likely to cover a range of positions from the bench. Kinghorn has been playing on the wing for Toulouse, although he is favourite to wear the Lions' No 15 jersey when the Tests come around, having developed into the complete player since he moved to France in 2023. Kinghorn's favourite position is full-back like at Scotland, but he plays on the wing at Toulouse His 6ft 4in frame makes him an authoritative presence in the backfield but he must quickly get up to scratch with the playbook, ahead a likely debut against the Waratahs on Saturday. 'Internationally, I have played the majority of my rugby at full-back,' he said. 'So I'd still say that's probably my best position. 'At club level, it is different. We have positions but we don't really have positions. Everything's interchangeable. The rugby over there is not as structured so it is kind of floating around. Wingers are the same as full-back in most instances; whereas internationally it is a little a bit different. 'I tried to keep thoughts about the Lions at the back of my head, just because I wanted to stay present in the moment and finish the season really strongly with Toulouse. All the coaches understand how intense it is to be in the knockout stages of your league competition, so they all know that overloading information then is not going to help anyone. 'The next couple of days will be the big days for me to learn everything and catch up where the boys are at, but hopefully I'll catch up pretty quickly. Now I can kind of turn my full attention to this, it's really exciting.' Back at Toulouse, Kinghorn revealed that his French club-mates Thomas Ramos and Josh Brennan had shown a particularly keen interest in the Lions concept. Lions tours in France have been mooted as an option for future years, although a one-off fixture would be more likely, as administrators are reluctant to break with tradition. A warm-up fixture against France in Paris could be a spectacular curtain-raiser and Kinghorn believes the Lions would be a hit with the rugby-mad public. 'There would be no jetlag for starters!' he joked. 'It would be pretty cool. I don't know how happy the French clubs would be though because the Top 14 season is so gruelling and so long. But they (the public) would love it. It would be awesome.' For now, all focus is on Australia, with Kinghorn likely to emerge as one of the key figures.
