Guess who! Veteran Aussie TV personality is unrecognisable in adorable throwback childhood photo

by

Chezzi Denyer shared a sweet old photo of her husband, Grant Denyer, on social media to celebrate his 48th birthday.

The former producer of the ‘Sunrise’ show, married to Grant since 2010 and a mother of three, shared a cute childhood photo of the well-known TV personality on Instagram on Friday.

Looking back at a photo from the early 80s, I spotted the host of Deal or No Deal! She was totally channeling the decade with blonde hair, striking blue eyes, and a fantastic vintage style – all while looking amazing behind the wheel of a car. It really captures the energy of that era!

‘Happy Birthday to our main man @grantdenyer,’ Chezzi captioned the post.

‘Doing what you’ve always loved – even if it’s on the other side of the world today.’

She shared, ‘You mean everything to us, and we can’t wait to properly celebrate with you when you’re back home! We’re counting down the days!’

Chezzi recently shared details of her four-year health journey, which began after a post-pregnancy hernia caused nerve damage, severe back pain, and weakened core muscles.

In May, the media personality shared on Instagram that she had a long, seven-and-a-half-hour surgery to fix a hernia she’d been dealing with for years.

Chezzi recently posted photos from her time in the hospital and explained the difficulties she’s been facing with her health.

She began her post by explaining that after her daughter Sunday was born four years ago, she didn’t get enough rest following her C-section.

I injured my abdominal wall by overexerting myself, resulting in a 2cm gap from top to bottom. This injury significantly weakened my core and caused me to lose control of my pelvic floor.

After her third C-section, she developed thick scar tissue and nerve damage that doctors found very difficult to treat.

Even though she was in pain, the mother of three continued to push herself, juggling family responsibilities and neglecting her own need for rest.

When Sunday was recovering in a full body cast, I spent months carrying her – she weighed over 20 kilos – and gently rocking her for hours each day.

My natural urge to care for her was stronger than my own discomfort, and as a result, I made things worse. The original hernia reopened, and I developed another one lower in my abdomen.

After struggling with pain for a long time, Chezzi decided to have surgery to address it. The operation was complex and required a significant recovery period of about six weeks.

She said she had a seven-and-a-half-hour surgery last Friday to repair damage to her body, and waking up felt like she’d been run over by a large truck.

I recently had physical therapy to relearn how to breathe properly, and I have some noticeable medical drains in place. Thankfully, I’m now back home.

She then expressed her gratitude to her husband for remaining strong and supportive after her surgery, saying she deeply admired his resilience.
