Radio stars Kyle Sandilands and Jase Hawkins have spoken together publicly for the first time about their falling out.
Speaking on their KIIS FM breakfast show in Sydney, Jackie O spoke about how Kyle ‘swooped in’ on his ex-wife Tamara Jaber at the Cleo Bachelor Awards, despite knowing his best mate Jase had feelings for her.
Tamara Jaber, a member of 2000s pop group Scandul’us (winners of the second season of Popstars), was just getting to know Jase Hawkins when she met Kyle at the Cleo Bachelor Awards.
“It was just horrifying because I was there at the table and he [Jase] was so into her. Then you just swooped in and she gave all her attention to you. And then you married her,” Jackie O recalled.
After meeting at the Cleo Bachelor Awards, Kyle later went on to marry Tamara Jaber in 2008 before splitting after just two years of marriage in 2010.
Kyle also spoke about how poorly he treated his friend Jase when they lived together.
“I’d sit at home stoned and I’d send him up to the servo to buy me chocolate Paddle Pops and I wouldn’t even let him take the car. I’d make him take the pushbike,” Kyle admitted.
But it was an incident a few years down the track that truly ended the pair’s friendship. In 2012, Kyle failed to show up to Jase’s wedding, despite the fact that he was meant to be the MC.
