Jono Castano Steps Out With New Girlfriend Emily Ryder After Split from Simone Holtznagel
On the evening of their date, it was evident that Jono Castano was deeply smitten as he walked hand-in-hand with his new companion, Emily Ryder, showing clear signs of affection.
35-year-old celebrity trainer and father of Simone Hotznagel’s baby, made their relationship Instagram official with actress from Love Triangle earlier this week.
On a splendid Tuesday, the freshly-formed pair felt absolutely ecstatic to spend time together, sharing a romantic dinner for two at Sydney’s Potts Point.
During the tranquil moment, Jonothan appeared at ease, sporting a snug, flawlessly fitting white t-shirt that accentuated his sculpted physique gracefully.
Additionally, he donned a comfortable set of navy blue track pants, and completed his look with a pair of crisp white trainers.
With a bit of scruff on his face, Jono added a silver band to his wrist as an accessory, clutching his phone firmly as he walked alongside his partner.
Additionally, Emily chose a laid-back style as she stepped outside, donning a simple black long-sleeve blouse featuring a scooped collar.
She pulled her blouse inside a pair of stylish, broad-legged trousers with a drawstring, sporting black and white vertical lines along their length.
For the event, Emily decided to let her golden hair cascade freely, completing the style with a pair of sleek black leather sandals.
To shield herself from the harsh Sydney weather, she also adorned herself with a stylish beige overcoat that reached down to her mid-calf.
As I strolled hand-in-hand with my beloved companion, I couldn’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of joy and contentment, knowing we were sharing this beautiful evening together, and it was reflected in our radiant smiles all the way to the restaurant.
Opting for an outdoor setting for their private dinner, Jono and Emily seemed engrossed in a thoughtful discussion while appreciating the atmosphere around them.
Jono has recently entered a new relationship, having earlier been connected with the Perth-based fashion designer Nilofar Khirzad. This development follows his well-known separation from Simone Holtznagel.
Jono and Simone dated for almost two years after meeting through Sydney’s social scene.



The owner of the Acero Fitness brand continues to be highly sought-after among Australian celebrities, as he has trained stars such as Rebel Wilson, Rita Ora, and Michael Clarke.
In January, Castano abruptly decided to part ways with designer Nilofar, having dated for only a short period of about half a year.
According to a source, they had been here for several weeks back then. It seems their romance simply reached its end.
The genetically blessed couple have since unfollowed each other on Instagram.
As I found my path to notoriety gracing the screens of viewers on Stan’s beloved dating phenomenon, Love Triangle, my journey began alongside Sam Fisher, an intriguing companion in this love-tangled tale.
The connection between them deteriorated swiftly when it came to light that Sam was privately conversing with an old flame named Hannah while the program was underway, culminating in a heated conflict as portrayed on the show.
Later on, Emily expressed her disappointment by saying, ‘The deceit was so intricate, it seemed almost unrealistic. I must admit, he was quite skillful in his deception, and it was convincing indeed!’
Nine weeks following the birth of their daughter Gia on Easter Sunday, Simone and Jono separated in May of the previous year.


In July, Jono publicly announced their split to Daily Mail Australia, while Simone has stated that she is currently raising Gia on her own.
She also recently made a cryptic remark that she ‘couldn’t change’ the man she loved.
In a conversation with Stellar, Simone shared that her decision was inspired by the desire to serve as a role model for her daughter.
One time, I found myself thinking, “Is this what I’m meant to be doing? This feels wrong. I wouldn’t wish for her to experience this predicament.
She continued: ‘You have to do what is right for you at the end of the day.
As a die-hard admirer, I’ve come to learn the hard way: People’s actions speak louder than their words, no matter how many pledges or assurances they offer. When someone reveals their true nature, take them at their word.

Because you can’t change people.’
Additionally, Simone mentioned that she’s comfortable sharing parental responsibilities with Jono regarding Gia, and she’s assured she chose wisely in this decision.
‘I’ve never felt more sure of anything, and I know I can do it by myself,’ she admitted.
I wish I had more help,” I found myself saying, as I’ve been mainly handling things on my own. In truth, I struggled to envision alternative solutions for the task at hand.
As a lifestyle enthusiast, I find my actions aligning beautifully with my personal sense of well-being. Above all else, prioritizing Gia’s happiness and health is paramount in my life, ensuring that her joy and vitality are mirrored in mine as well.
