IF there was any blowback from the bosses at Channel 9 over his very public canoodling with his new girlfriend on Sydney Harbour, Today host Karl Stefanovic showed no signs of stress as he enjoyed a tennis hitout in North Sydney today.

The recently separated TV star, 42, enjoyed a romantic weekend with new lover, model and fashion designer Jasmine Yarbrough, 33, who he met at an intimate party late last year.

And by all accounts he is pulling out all the stops to trim down his physique to match hers, with a gruelling exercise regimen.

Yarbrough, from Brisbane, is back in Australia to spend time with her new beau, leaving her home base in Los Angeles for some summer loving.

That relationship didn’t last, but she decided to stay in California, where she runs a design business and enjoys mixing in celebrity circles.

She has not been spotted since photos of the besotted couple on a luxury boat emerged on Sunday — although she is believed to be shacked up with Stefanovic in a posh Northern Beaches rental rumoured to be costing a whopping $3000 a day.
