![Matt's Sunrise anniversary - 'THE MOMENT THAT SHOCKED ME!'](https://cdn.magzter.com/1385594623/1719190346/articles/7htiDXzvK1719817493002/MATTS-SUNRISE-ANNIVERSARY-THE-MOMENT-THAT-SHOCKED-ME.jpg)
Matt Shirvington says he’s learnt “so much” in the 12 months since he replaced David Koch as Sunrise’s male co-host – namely mastering the art of the early morning wake-up call!
Sitting down with New Idea for a chat to mark his one-year anniversary, Shirvo confesses he figured out the hard way to not go blitzing his morning smoothie in the family kitchen at 3am.
“I made that mistake once, and once only,” he tells us with a chuckle. “My wife [Jessica] had something to say about that at the time!
“Now, I make my smoothie with a portable blender in my car before I leave for work.”
On a more serious note, Shirvo is glad he paid close attention to his predecessor Kochie’s suggestion to just “be himself ” on-air. He is also thankful to have a good co-captain in Natalie Barr.
“I think I spent the first six months on the couch learning the ropes, supported so much by Nat of course. But now I feel like I’ve relaxed into the role. Taking on board Kochie’s advice really helped,” he shares.
