Justin Hemmes and Kate Fowler spotted together ONE DAY after split

Millionaire pub baron Justin Hemmes is putting on a united front with his ex-partner Kate Fowler in the wake of their shock split.

Just 24 hours after announcing the end of their four-year relationship, the pair were seen taking their two young daughters on a picnic on Saturday afternoon.

Hiding any heartbreak, Justin, 45, and Kate, 28, even managed to smile as they boarded a seaplane at the back of their $60 million mansion on Sydney Harbour.

Making their way toward the aircraft, the former couple were seen carrying their daughters, Alexa, two and Saachi, one. 

Hardly an average family picnic, the brood was accompanied by a blonde woman believed to be a nanny. 

A pilot was also seen lending a helping hand before the famous family flew off for their afternoon outing.

Earlier in the day, Kate was pictured looking decidedly more downcast as she stepped out to purchase a coffee in Bondi.

Keeping her head down, the brunette model clutched her iPhone as she made her way back to her black Range Rover.   

On Friday, Justin told ‘Kate and I have the utmost love and respect for each other,’ he said in a statement.

‘At the beginning of 2018, Kate and I decided our friendship and respect for family life would become the focus of our relationship. We love our children dearly and for now continue to live together happily in our family home.’ 

The ‘family home’ Hemmes was referring to is The Hermitage, a heritage-listed Vaucluse mansion, designed and built in the 1870s.

Hemmes and Fowler remain living at the eight-bedroom harbourfront home, which is worth more than ‘$60 million dollars’. 

On Friday, Hemmes - who is the father of Fowler's two children Alexa, two and Saachi, one - confirmed the pair had split at the start of 2018, and said they now share a 'platonic' relationship

Two women were pictured leaving The Hermitage on Saturday morning – their identities are yet to be confirmed.  

Daily Mail Australia has reached out to both Hemmes and Fowler for comment.

 Despite his reputation as a playboy, Hemmes settled into fatherhood. On November 5, 2015, he delivered firstborn Alexa himself.

‘You can’t explain to anyone the love that you have for your child. You can’t actually explain it. She’s the most beautiful thing,’ Hemmes told Fairfax at the time.

‘I’m experiencing a joy I have never experienced before and I’m just a lot calmer.

‘My sister [Bettina] thinks it’s a very good thing I had a girl first, girls are a lot softer. They are calm for someone like myself.”   

Hemmes was equally thrilled when baby number two, Saachi, came along on June 23, 2017.  

His most recent Instagram post is a birthday tribute to Saachi, shared on June 23 this year.
