Peter Stefanovic and wife Sylvia Jeffreys show off their beach bodies as they enjoy a day at the seaside with young sons at Bronte

Peter Stefanovic and his wife Sylvia Jeffreys were making the most of the long weekend as they hit Bronte Beach on Sunday.

The Sky News host, 42, and Today Extra star Sylvia, 38, were accompanied by their children Oscar, four, and Henry, three.

They got an early start to the summer, stripping down for a swim in the roped off tide pool, before Peter hit the ocean. 

Peter showed off his fit form in a pair of navy board shorts and had a ball diving into the waves. 

Sylvia meanwhile looked fit and fantastic in a black one piece swimsuit and stayed sun safe in a cap and sunglasses. 

She coxed her young son into the water in the pool as Peter did some laps nearby to his family.  

The sighting comes after Peter recently copped public backlash over a shock interview.  

In May, Peter revealed he ‘regrets’ ruining a teenage fishing champion’s big moment and made an apology on live TV following backlash.

Keegan Payne, 19, made headlines across Australia at the time after he hooked a barramundi worth $1million in Katherine, 317km south of Darwin.

His prize catch was part of the Million Dollar Fish angling competition aimed to boost Northern Territory tourism.

However, his celebrations were cut short during a harsh interview with Peter.

The breakfast host asked point-blank if there was any truth to rumours Keegan and a friend had once stolen an off-road vehicle and a quad bike from his former employer, Bob Cavanagh.

Keegan said the allegation was true – and offered a sincere apology to his old boss in the excruciating exchange.

The segment sparked outrage among viewers who demanded Peter resign for trying to turn a feel-good story into a scandal.

Following the incident Peter made an apology to Keegan on live TV. 

‘An apology from me, last Wednesday we invited Keegan Payne onto our show to discuss his win in the Million Dollar Fish competition in the Northern Territory,’ Stefanovic said during First Edition on Sky News.

‘During that interview I asked him about a theft that had occurred several years earlier. I should not have asked him about those claims and I regret doing so.’

Peter deleted all his social media accounts in the wake of the furore.

Meanwhile, a petition also calling for him to resign attracted more than 3,500 signatures.

Sky News was also forced to issue an apology, with the network revealing that Peter had personally said sorry to Mr Payne and his family.
