SBS presenter Karla Grant breaks her silence on her shock romance with Married At First Sight star Nasser Sultan

BBG News

Karla Grant, a presenter on SBS, has shared details about her unexpected relationship with the reality TV personality, Nasser Sultan, who is known for his appearance on Married At First Sight.

On Sunday, the journalist shared with The Daily Telegraph that despite their notable differences, the pair actually share many similarities.

‘I was taken by surprise myself,’ Karla admitted.

Traveling, watching movies, and attending theater performances are all activities we enjoy. Many people might not realize it, but these shared interests make us quite similar.

In 2018, Karla made it clear that she was a fan of Married at First Sight (MAFS) and immediately recognized Nasser when he spoke to her at an event.

As for myself, despite him consistently inviting me, my work and travels kept me occupied to the point where I couldn’t commit. However, eventually, I found myself saying “yes,” as I detailed later on.

For quite some time now, I’ve found myself in a tranquil relationship with Nasser, a connection that was rekindled at a gathering we both attended last year.

Last month, Nasser shared with Daily Mail Australia that they had known each other for about four years. At a recent gathering, they rekindled their connection and found themselves falling in love.

‘That was it. It was like love at first sight – just not Married At First Sight!’

Speaking admiringly of his girlfriend, Nasser said, “She is kind, intelligent, refined, extremely knowledgeable, and highly esteemed in her field. She isn’t pretentious or active on social media like Instagram.

Certainly, although Nasser has frequently sought attention following his appearance on MAFS in 2018, Karla is recognized for her dedicated career as a presenter and producer for SBS’s Indigenous news program, Living Black, and typically avoids media attention.

In a somewhat surprising turn of events, the relationship between the acclaimed Walkley Award-winning journalist and the self-proclaimed stirrer of reality TV has raised eyebrows. However, Karla herself put it most eloquently in her uncommon public declaration.

I can’t help but be captivated by Nasser’s unique charm. His attentiveness, care, and thoughtfulness towards those he holds dear never cease to amaze me. Time and again, I witness him extending a hand of assistance to his friends – it’s simply incredible!

She continued: ‘Our union was very unexpected, but it is growing into something very special.’

For Karla, this new connection signifies the beginning of a new phase in her life, having been married to journalist and broadcaster Stan Grant for 16 years prior to their separation in 2000.

Stan notoriously ended his relationship with Karla and began dating Tracey Holmes from his network, Seven Network, causing a significant media controversy that echoed throughout the decade.

Over time, I’ve managed to keep myself in the limelight, whether it’s through playful publicity maneuvers or creating a stir with fabricated romantic entanglements to grab headlines. (Lifestyle Expert)

However, it’s said among those close to him that his relationship with Karla appears entirely sincere and not merely a tactic to attract media attention.

It’s quite significant that Nasser, who famously stated, “Feel free to write about me as much as you like, just remember to include my name,” has maintained a discreet bond with them up until this point. This says a lot.

‘I credit her for making me calm. I’m still a troublemaker – don’t worry about that’ he said.

‘And yeah, it’s just blown me away, seriously, how this whole thing’s happened’.
