Natalie Barr: the secrets to surviving breakfast TV

Tavsif:

2025 is shaping up to be a milestone year for Natalie Barr. In December, she and her husband Andrew will celebrate 30 years of marriage — and she’s also marking 23 years of Sunrise, making her the longest‑serving breakfast TV presenter in Australia. In this episode, Natalie opens up about what it takes to maintain both a long, happy marriage and a high‑profile career, the unique bond she’s built with co-host Matt Shirvington, and how she’s adapted to a rapidly changing media landscape. She shares the emotional moments that have stayed with her, the resilience required to show up every morning at 3am, and her thoughts on stepping into life as an empty nester — all while keeping her trademark warmth, humour and straight‑talking style.
