AFL WAG Tayla Broad announces heartbreaking family news: 'Our first baby'
Tayla Broad has shared the heartbreaking news of her beloved French bulldog Charlie's passing. The grieving wife of Richmond star Nathan Broad took to Instagram Stories on Thursday to share a poignant black-and-white photo of the family giving Charlie his final pats, accompanied by a touching tribute to her furry companion. 'Our sweet Charlie boy. Sammy's Cha Cha. Our first baby,' Tayla, 28, wrote, confirming the sad loss to her 452,000 followers. 'To know you is to love you. Rest easy king. Enjoy the never ending sunshine up there.' Charlie was a beloved member of the Broad family and often featured in the couple's social media posts.

The cause of the dog's passing was not disclosed. The French bulldog rose to national prominence in September 2023, when former Love Island star Tayla accused Qantas of 'animal abuse' after he went missing for hours when he was supposed to be on a plane to Perth. 'Qantas, you have a lot of explaining to do,' the model and former reality TV star ranted on Instagram. Charlie was supposed to depart on a flight from Melbourne to Western Australia, but after the airline's IT freight system was thrown into chaos, was left behind. Qantas confirmed to Daily Mail Australia that a system upgrade to its freight handling system in late September led to an outage that caused significant delays for customers. With the IT system down, workers were forced to process shipments manually, causing backlogs in deliveries at some of the nation's largest airports. Nathan and the AFL WAG saw their beloved pet caught up in the delays, claiming that Charlie was left in a crate for up to 14 hours without food when they sent him from Melbourne to Perth. They claimed Qantas didn't notify them of any changes after the dog wasn't put on a flight, and a family member waited for hours at Perth airport only to be told he hadn't arrived. The French bulldog rose to national prominence in September 2023, when former Love Island star Tayla accused Qantas of 'animal abuse' after he went missing for hours when he was supposed to be on a plane to Perth 'No one is able to tell us where Charlie is. Just that he didn't get put on his morning flight,' Tayla wrote on social media. 'We are unsure if he is currently in the air or still stuck inside a crate at the airport. 'We should have been informed and given the opportunity to collect our little man hours ago – if he even is in Melbourne that is. 'He is so rattled. Couldn't get up our stairs due to exhaustion, so dehydrated, drooling and all out of sorts. 'This is disgusting and animal abuse.' Nathan said Qantas' 'excuse' was that its system was down. 'You belong in a crate you useless airline!' he wrote on Instagram. The airline issued a statement in the wake of the incident apologising to the couple. 'Our team regularly checked the pet was OK, refilled their water and made sure the crate was clean. The crate was kept under cover in our freight terminal while waiting,' a spokesperson said. The delays also meant unrefrigerated produce and pharmaceuticals were ruined, with the Sydney Morning Herald reporting that corpses were left in coffins on the tarmac. Qantas has denied that coffins were left at airports, with urgent medical supplies and human remains prioritised to avoid delays. The airline said the IT issue had been fixed and domestic backlogs cleared. Tayla (née Damir) and three-time AFL premiership star Nathan, 32, tied the knot in the Gold Coast hinterland in October 2022 after a whirlwind three-year romance. The couple welcomed their first child, daughter Sammy, in August 2023.

Tayla Broad went from the most ‘overdressed person in the room' to ‘effortless chic'
This story is part of the June 22 edition of Sunday Life. See all 15 stories. Each week, we quiz a prominent person about their style and the inspiration behind it. Ahead, Presenter Tayla Broad. How would you describe your style? If you'd asked me a couple of years ago, I'd have said that I love experimenting with fashion, and I'm often the most overdressed person in the room. However, since having a child, it's effortless chic. I have a capsule wardrobe of mostly dark-coloured tops and pants suitable for chasing a dirty child around. What's the oldest thing in your wardrobe? An old winter coat I purchased on a school trip to the snow over a decade ago. And the most recent addition? A pair of Tony Bianco 'Lush' heels that I'm excited to wear with a mini dress. What would you wear … on a first date? Black Henne 'Valentina' jeans with a sheer Maj'r off-the-shoulder top, a Lem pleather coat and black, pointed kitten heels. … on the plane? Comfy, oversized wide-leg jeans with a Cotton On singlet, blazer, sneakers and my Oroton travel bag. … on the red carpet? A couture gown by Melbourne designer Oglia-Loro who does a lot of my red-carpet looks. Sam [Oglialoro] also made my wedding gown and reception dress. What's your favourite fashion era? I like now, especially for the way we're moving away from fast fashion and investing more in long-term pieces. Who are your favourite designers? Henne for well-made everyday pieces and Venroy for holidays and summer staples. I also love Camilla and Marc, Viktoria & Woods, Effie Kats, Natalie Rolt, and Paul Vasileff. What's your fragrance of choice? My mum gave me a bottle of Chanel 'Coco Mademoiselle' for my hens party. I wore it for my wedding, and I love it so much, I haven't stopped since.
