Between Throwback Thursdays and Way Back Wednesdays, we’ve become accustomed to celebs sharing delightful photos from their youth.
The latest photo reveal of Karl Stefanovic via the Today Show, however, has us feeling some type of way.
The morning show host has shared throwback photos before, but these new snaps have us flawed, namely because he looks H-O-T.
Seriously, we’re not okay.
In the first throwback, a young Karl shows off his buff body in a low-cut, flowing top at what looks like a dress-up party.
In the second snap, the fresh-faced TV star looks peak 90s soap star in a soft focus headshot.
In what we can only assume was a move designed to be retaliation for Karl sharing her old modelling photos the day prior, co-host Allison Langdon made the reveal on the show.
The official Instagram for the show then shared the photo to mark Karl’s birthday, but mostly for all of us to ogle as long as we wish.
“Happy birthday, King Karlos! 🎉🎂,” the caption read.
Ally followed the photo up with a much more recent and sobering shot of the TV star in a pair of bright red budgie smugglers.
Marking Karl’s 47th birthday, wife Jasmine, daughter Harper and the star’s mum also made an appearance on the show via video call.
On Wednesday night, the presenter shared an intimate celebration at home with his wife.
The couple made the most of his lockdown birthday by sharing their food delivery from the iconic Bondi restaurant Icebergs.
Karl and Jasmine tucked into the establishments signature 150-day grain-fed boneless rib, leaf salad and red wine.
The TV personality took a moment to draw attention to the hard-hit hospitality industry.
He wrote, “Restaurants are doing it tough. This is the biggest surprise ever from my favourite.”
More love was sent to Karl on Instagram from his daughter Willow who posted an incredible throwback onto her stories.
In the picture, a young Willow and her dad are dressed up in red costumes from the Pixar movie The Incredibles.
“Happy birthday to u @karstefanovic_,” the 16-year-old captioned her touching post.
Despite not being able to celebrate his big day as he would have in precedented times, it seems he was able to feel special with the support of his loved ones.
