The countdown is on for top jockey Jamie Kah to walk down the aisle.
Making the most of the summery burst, a bikini-clad Kah celebrated her hen’s party with friends – including Melbourne Cup-winning jockey Michelle Payne – at Jackalope Hotel, on Mornington Peninsula, last weekend.
Kah will tie the knot with fellow jockey Ben Melham next weekend.
She was previously engaged to trainer Clayton Douglas, while Melham shares three children with his ex-partner Karlie Dales, with whom he had a 15-year relationship.
Kah is one of the racing industry’s most consistent headline-makers and attracts public fascination.
She is a rider of extraordinary skill and in many ways is the current face of racing.
Kah and Melham were among six people present at a house party at a Mornington Airbnb that breached Covid-19 protocols in August 2021.
They announced their engagement last year on Valentine’s Day - February 14.
In March 2023, Kah suffered a horrific race fall at Flemington with her injuries including bleeding to the brain, which put her in an induced coma for five days, a broken wrist, foot and nose.
