This bundle of Joyce has done anything but bring the former deputy PM’
When Barnaby Joyce arrived home from Canberra, Vikki Campion greeted the man who gave up so much to be at her side with a kiss, tenderly stroking his cheek as they embraced in the front seat of their 4WD.
It was the very definition of a romantic reunion, yet it comes after what insiders reveal has been an incredibly difficult time for Barnaby, 51, following the birth of his and Vikki’s first baby, Sebastian, five weeks ago.
What should have been a wonderful time for any new dad – and Barnaby has said his son’s arrival was “an incredible joy, an incredible blessing” – has to also be tinged with some sadness.
DIFFICULT SITUATION
“I believe he’s really missing [wife] Natalie and the girls and his old life,” reveals a workmate, adding the “jovial and happy bloke who lit up the room when he walked in” has all but gone since his private life became front-page fodder.
But then not everyone in Barnaby’s life has become acquainted with baby Sebastian.
