The Incredible True Story Of Kerri- Anne And John Kennerley’s Romance

Kerri-Anne Kennerley - ‘The Love Of My Life'

Theirs was Australia’s greatest love story. Through hardships and triumphs, Kerri- Anne Kennerley and her husband John were the centre of each other’s worlds.

Last week the showbiz icon’s world was shattered when her beloved John passed away, aged 78. They were married for 35 years.

Kerri-Anne shared the devastating news online alongside a black-and-white photo of the happy couple from their wedding day back in 1984.

“It’s with a heavy heart and awful sadness that I let you know that my beautiful husband John passed away last night,” the Studio 10 co-presenter wrote on February 28, ending her emotional tribute with the words, “John, you were the love of my life”.

Kerri-Anne was a tower of strength when, in 2016, John was left a quadriplegic after a freak fall off a verandah at a golf resort in Coffs Harbour on the NSW Mid North Coast. In the days following the accident, as John lay in the intensive care unit at Sydney’s Royal North Shore Hospital, Kerri-Anne was terrified, but put on a brave face.
