Kylie Gillies braces herself against Sydney’s chilly weather in faux fur jacket

Sydney’s temperatures have plunged in recent weeks.

And Kylie Gillies was well prepared on Thursday, rugging up in a faux fur coat while outside Seven’s Martin Place studio.

The Morning Show co-host, 56, donned a Leona Edmiston ruby crop fur coat, valued at a scant $74.99 for the brisk winter outing.

Kylie captioned the post, ‘Coat weather much? Sub 10 degrees.. and out comes the fluffy coat.’

The Harris Scarfe ambassador also borrowed a dog named Penelope for the impromptu fashion shoot.

The upbeat outing comes just weeks after Gillies was brought to tears on live television Friday morning as she spoke about the death of her Channel Seven colleague, hair and makeup artist Garry Siutz.

Kylie broke down while speaking with Garry’s daughter Kiya, who was advocating for better skin cancer awareness.

After her father, who was an employee of Channel Seven, died from the disease, Kiya helped kickstart Australia’s very first National Skin Check truck.

Morning Show hosts and dear friends of Garry, Kylie and Larry Emdur, invited her to appear on breakfast program to promote the free skin checks.

The CEO and founder of the Australian Skin Cancer Foundation Jay Allen also appeared alongside Kiya as they stood in front of the skin check truck.

Plastered along the side of the vehicle were 86 people who had died from melanoma, including the smiling face of Garry. 

‘The cause has special significance to The Morning Show after we lost one of our very own to the disease in 2021,’ Kylie said.

‘It’s very close for us,’ Larry agreed.

Larry, 58, went on to tell Kiya that her father’s name is often heard in the corridors of The Morning Show as the colleagues and friends he left behind remember him. 

‘It’s been so lovely to… to hear Garry’s name mentioned, isn’t it Larry. It’s beautiful to hear his name back in the studio,’ Kylie said as she broke down

Later in the segment, Jay and Kiya thanked the breakfast show hosts for their support, saying: ‘For the team at The Morning Show, thanks for supporting us… this is for life.’

Kylie teared up when she heard the sentiment and struggled to get her next words out, looking to her co-host for support.

‘It’s been so lovely to… to hear Garry’s name mentioned, isn’t it Larry? It’s beautiful to hear his name back in the studio,’ she said as she broke down.
