Courtney added that she would be keeping the matter private for now, as there are three children involved – the daughter she shares with Jarrod, Kennedy, two, as well Jarrod’s two older children from a previous relationship, Lara, 9, and Peyton, 7.
‘For the sake of the three girls I won’t ever go into all the nitty gritty details publicly but there are certain parts I will talk about further in my own way shortly,’ she said.
‘For now, I am just focusing on being the best mother for my daughter as my top priority, I am studying full time, have my very own podcast coming out soon and I have started working again, all of which I am so excited about.

‘We had a very small, intimate wedding. It was perfect,’ Jarrod said at the time on 90.9 SeaFM’s Dan, Ben and Heather breakfast show.
‘We did it at the Benowa Botanical Gardens with mum, dad, siblings, the girls and a celebrant. There was only about 12 people there. (We) had a 30 minute ceremony.’
Jarrod went on: ‘I thought it would be nice and emotional but it was one of the hardest, nerve-racking things I’ve done.’
