Hard times: ‘I don’t think anyone expects this or prepares to have this much attention, it’s been very hard,’ the 33-year-old told the Daily Telegraph
Her comments come after Karl opened up about his relationship with the shoe designer, which started in December last year, three months after ending his 21-year marriage to Cassandra Thorburn.
‘I certainly did not expect to meet someone five months after I broke up with my wife. That was not planned. I did not know her before. I met her on a boat in Sydney,’ Karl told Stellar.
‘It was unexpected and lovely, but we’re going to keep a level of privacy to how we’re going and what we’re planning, especially considering I have three beautiful children who need to be taken into consideration.’

Karl shares Jackson, 17, Ava, 12, and 11-year-old River with his former wife and has admitted he was ‘ashamed’ of the mistakes he had made in his marriage.
‘I’ve had some very dark moments where I felt ashamed and I had failed,’ he told the publication.
Recently the duo were recently spotted attending a wedding in Byron Bay.
New Idea claims Karl is thinking he would like to head down the aisle with the former model as soon as his divorce to Cassandra is finalised.
‘Karl has been thinking about marrying Jasmine pretty much since they met,’ a ‘source’ allegedly told the publication.
‘He’s 100 per cent smitten and knows she’s the one. And their day at the Byron Bay wedding has made him think about marriage even more,’ they added.
Daily Mail Australia contacted Karl’s reps for comment.
