Narelda Jacobs has tied the knot to her partner!
The Network 10 journalist married her partner of 18 months, Karina Natt, at MEZZANINE House in Sydney over the weekend.
Looking absolutely breathtaking in their ZHIVAGO ceremony gowns, the pair were were quick to change into matching mini dresses by the same luxury brand for their after party at Stonewall Hotel.
The star studded event saw the attendance of celebs like Kylie Kwong, Melissa Leong, and Luke McGregor, who all looked to be having an unbeatable time.
It was March 2023 that Narelda shared her new relationship with the world.
Posting to Instagram, the proudly queer Studio 10 host shared a photo of herself kissing her new partner at the time – Karina Natt, the chief of staff for South Australian Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young.
The image was captioned, “Can’t ignore the numbers. First date 23/02/23. 1 month later 23/03/23 #loveislove #worldpridelove.”

The happy news came after the relationship breakdown of the 47-year-old and long-term partner filmmaker Stevie Cruz-Martin a few months ago.
Whilst Narelda is confident in her sexuality now, she did previously struggle to accept she was gay, due to being raised in a strict Christian family.
Narelda was one of the judges of the 2022 Australian Women Weekly’s Women of the Future Awards.

But, the 47-year-old hasn’t always had the confidence to speak up like she does now.
Speaking to The Weekly in July 2022 the journalist explained the growth she’s had, saying, “the younger Narelda was really lacking in confidence. I could get up in front of a group of people because my parents were pastors in a church – I always saw them standing up in front of people and speaking, so it wasn’t a fear of that.
“It was a fear of being able to communicate my own ideas and opinions. At first, I didn’t think I had opinions. Now I know that I do have opinions that I want to share, and I realise that people are interested in them.”
