Tom Morris is partying in Europe after being sacked by Fox Sports

Former Fox Sports reporter Tom Morris is partying in Europe with a star jockey after being fired for his offensive comments about a co-worker.

Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge was 'out of line'

Former Fox Sports reporter Tom Morris has been seen partying in Croatia with jockey Jamie Kah.

Morris, who was sacked in March after a recording of him making offensive comments about colleague Megan Barnard’s sexuality was leaked online, is taking some time away in the UK.

He has been keeping a low profile, visiting friends and family in London and completing education courses on racism and sexism following the formal apology he made saying he was “deeply ashamed” of his actions.

It’s understood Morris joined Kah, who posted Instagram stories while on a boat in Hvar, after connecting through mutual friend, trainer Sam Freedman. He appeared in one of the stories in which Kah appeared in a bikini surrounded by friends.

Kah is on holiday in Europe with a girlfriend but has set tongues wagging after a new loved-up photo of her alongside fellow jockey Ben Melham was posted on social media.

Melham posted the photo of him and Kah to his Instagram account on Monday night Australian time.

In the photo taken at Capri in Italy, Melham’s arm is around Kah and the pair look happy and content.

It comes after a happy snap of Kah and Melham at Royal Ascot earlier this month surfaced.

Rumours about the pair have been going around for months with talk increasing across the racing industry during last month’s Warrnambool races.

Kah, 26, who was engaged to fellow jockey Clayton Douglas, was snapped with Melham’s arm around her in the back of a car in England.

Melham, 34, is recovering from shoulder surgery after a fall in March.

He is expected to resume race riding in July.

Melham and Kah were both caught at the infamous illegal Airbnb party last year.

Along with fellow riders Mark Zahra, Celine Gaudray, and Ethan Brown, they were busted breaking Victoria’s Covid-19 laws in August and were handed fines and lengthy suspensions, meaning they missed the spring carnival.

Zahra was also at Royal Ascot.

Kah, one of the country’s most celebrated jockeys, and her camp have previously denied she is in a relationship with Melham but racing sources believe they have been seeing each other for some time.
