Natalie Barr - ‘I'm here to stay!'

It’s not even lunchtime and Natalie Barr has already been on the go for about 10 hours. Not that you’d know it. As she sits down with WHO for an exclusive interview to celebrate her one-year anniversary as co-host of Seven’s breakfast show Sunrise, Barr is upbeat and energetic and, even though we’re cutting into her scheduled time for a power nap, she is beaming as she talks about landing her dream job.

“I still pinch myself. And the days I don’t pinch myself, I should slap myself because I feel lucky every day I’m doing it,” she explains to WHO as she relaxes in her Sydney home.

Barr, who turns 54 this month, is certainly looking and feeling her best. She’s finally feeling confident in the role, conquering her self-doubts and claiming ownership of the position abruptly vacated by Samantha Armytage. She shed 5kg last year after signing up with nutritionist Sarah Di Lorenzo’s weight loss and meal plan and now that she’s recovering from a shoulder injury, she’s ready to return to her favourite workout, Xtend Barre. “It’s like Pilates on steroids!” she explains.

“I filled in [as co-host] a lot over many years so I didn’t actually think it would be much different – but it has been,” Barr says of how her life has changed since accepting the job. “It’s been a lot busier. There’s more pressure, more attention. But I’ve actually also liked it more than I thought, which sort of surprised me.
