Despite being axed from better Homes and Gardens, Rob Palmer is determined to keep smiling!
He has only recently become a dad once again to six month old Greta and the TV chippie couldn’t be happier.
“I am pretty lucky,” he beams, “because this girl is just gold, a little grinner who excites us and makes us all smile every single day!”
While Rob is celebrating the birth of his third child with his wife Gwen, he is still reeling professionally about the sudden axing from the popular lifestyle program.
The popular chippie has been axed to make way for reality TV contestant Adam Dovile of My House Rules. But the most shocking part about his sudden departure is that he still hasn’t been contacted directly by channel 7.
“No one from channel 7 has spoken to me about it,” reveals Rob.
He heard the news while he was away with his family on a trip to Wales in November when he received the message that his contract wouldn’t be renewed.
“We were over seeing my mother-in-law, because she’d been crook and to introduce her to her new grand-daughter, when there was a two minute phone call to my agent telling her of the decision. It came out of the blue – I still had a shoot schedule booked in for when I returned to Sydney, and with the rest of the cast I’d already shot the 2015 Better Homes promo.”
“But I’m not having a whinge, mate!” he laughs, with the infectious good humour and tradie charm.
And there’s no stopping Rob, whose upbeat attitude will see him focus on his beautiful family.
