It took 18 months for them to meet and make their peace, but, in a world exclusive, Shane Warne’s ex-wife, Simone, still finds it hurtful to have Liz Hurley playing mum to her three children.
The first time Shane Warne’s ex-wife, Simone Callahan, went to meet Liz Hurley, the British starlet was indisposed, taking a bath at the palatial Melbourne home she now shares with him. “That was Christmas Day,” confirms Simone, joking – with her tongue firmly in her cheek – that she and her new partner Toby Roberts “could’ve gone in and said hi, but no, we didn’t meet her”.
Their second near-miss happened just a couple of weeks ago when Shane and Liz made an “awkward” visit to nine-year-old daughter Summer’s school, catching students and their parents by surprise. “Shane and Liz turned up – along with a swag of photographers – but we didn’t speak at the assembly,” she says.
The meeting that all of Australia has been waiting for happened just a few hours later when Simone was watching 13-year-old son Jackson play junior AFL for his school team. “I was sitting down, cheering him on, when Shane and Liz came up and sat next to me,” she says.
