Show Notes
Tammy Hembrow is one of the most talked-about people on the internet, but depending on your algorithm, you might only know one version of her. The devoted mother of three. The fitness entrepreneur helming a multimillion-dollar empire. The glamorous influencer generating headlines everywhere she goes.
In this episode of the Stellar podcast, Tammy sits down for her most candid interview yet, ready for Australia to get to know the real her. She opens up about why swimming with sharks is easier than being an influencer, how she navigates relentless trolling about her body and personal life, and how viral rumours involving AFL star Bailey Smith exposed a glaring double standard when it comes to dating after divorce.
Plus, Tammy discusses the trauma from her short-lived marriage to Love Island star Matt Zukowski, and why therapy became her path forward.
