The radio host has been seen enjoying a leisurely walk with a retired rugby league player in Sydney, sparking rumours of a new romance.

Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has sparked romance rumours after she was spotted out with a retired rugby league player.

The Sydney radio host, 50, was seen with former Newcastle Knights star Adam Muir, with the pair enjoying a walk at Gordons Bay in the city’s east on Sunday in exclusive photos taken by Daily Telegraph.

Muir, 53, played NRL in the ‘90s and early 2000s, and was part of the Knights’ 1997 Premiership winning team. He also had a brief stint playing for the South Sydney Rabbitohs.

The outlet reports Henderson and Muir were introduced recently through mutual friends.

The KIIS FM co-host has been single since her 2018 marriage breakdown with ex-husband, Lee Henderson, following 18 years together.

Prior to that, the star was married to then co-host Phil O’Neil, aka Ugly Phil, in the 90s.

Henderson has made no secret of her desire to find a partner, both on the Kyle and Jackie O Show and her podcast, Her Best Life.

Back in May, while interviewing US author and motivational speaker Gabrielle Bernstein on-air, Henderson broke down in tears about her love life.

The mother-of-one, who shares 14-year-old daughter Kitty with Lee, confessed she had “done quite a lot of work on myself” over the years after realising she “never felt good enough.”

When Sandilands asked her why she doesn’t think she’s “good enough”, she cried, “I don’t know, I’m working on it. I feel like I’ve been working on it for two and a half years constantly.”

Bernstein reassured Henderson that “everyone is worthy of love.”

Henderson hasn’t had a public relationship since her divorce.

However, the radio host sparked dating rumours in 2023 when she was spotted enjoying a glass of wine on the balcony of her eastern suburbs home with 29-year-old tradesman and model Jack Tyerman.

The pair never confirmed reports, with Tyerman later becoming engaged to girlfriend Asha Dillon in December.
