She recently went on a health journey and lost 20kg.
And Jelena Dokic, 41, showed off impressive body transformation as she enjoyed a trip to Osijek, Croatia on Wednesday.
The Channel Nine commentator and former tennis star looked radiant in a short-sleeved white and sherbet-coloured dress as she enjoyed a morning coffee.
She paired the ensemble with some simple gold earrings and a pair of oversized black cat-eye sunglasses.
Captioning the post, Jelena joked she was going for a ‘cool’ look but may not have succeeded.
‘Trying to be natural cool while having my morning coffee,’ she wrote.
‘I don’t think I am succeeding. This is more a “don’t talk to me until I have my morning coffee” look.’

In a short follow-up clip, Jelena revealed the original post was supposed to be sarcastic.
She wrote: ‘I am not sure you all got ‘my joke post’ yesterday.
‘I was joking with my ‘cool’ look which was more “don’t talk to me look.” Obviously I didn’t look cool, I know I looked like “don’t talk to me”.’

Last month, Jelena addressed public commentary surrounding her recent weight loss, insisting she dropped the kilos for health reasons.
The Nine commentator shared a post on Instagram comparing her current appearance with how she looked back in 2023, when she was 20kg heavier.
In the caption, she stressed that she was happy in both pictures, adding that weight loss was not the goal but simply a ‘byproduct’ of adopting healthier habits.
‘The most important thing is that I am happy and proud in both pics regardless of my weight and that I am kind always,’ she began.
‘This is about HEALTH and not SIZE,’ she continued. ‘So many questions about me getting healthier, which has seen me lose weight. Weight loss was not a priority; it’s just a byproduct of looking after my health.’

Addressing those who accused her of crash-dieting, Jelena went on to clarify: ‘I didn’t lose weight quickly. I lost 20 kilos in just under 10 months. Nothing fast.’
Jelena explained she had lost the weight because of ‘a family history of diabetes’ and the fact she had recently been diagnosed with high blood pressure.
She also revealed exactly how she did it.
‘I stopped eating late at night especially things like burgers, pizza, fries and desserts because they made me feel so sluggish when I would wake up especially for early morning work and flights. So I don’t eat heavy meals at night anymore and I don’t eat after 7pm,’ wrote Jelena.
‘I eat more salads and soups for my meals now like a chicken caesar salad or tomato soup with multigrain bread. This type of meal does not make me feel sluggish and I am full.
‘I drink more water now and I have cut back on soda, even diet soda.
‘It’s small changes over time and while I still have my cheeseburger and fries days it’s just a lot less and I definitely don’t eat junk food when I am working and travelling. That’s it,’ she concluded.
