AFL star Jimmy Bartel enjoys a date night with his stunning rarely-seen partner Amelia as they catch NBL match in Melbourne

Jimmy Bartel was spotted out on a rare date night with his partner, Amelia Shepperd, on Sunday. 

The couple shared a cozy moment while watching the Melbourne United versus Cairns Taipans basketball game at John Cain Arena in Melbourne.

The 41-year-old beamed as he posed next to his stunning partner in the stands during the game. 

Amelia looked effortlessly stylish in a close-fitting, dark brown long-sleeved top.

She added a pair of loose-fit black jeans and completed the look with white sneakers. 

She chose rosy makeup with plenty of highlighter, and wore her brown hair down in loose, flowing waves.

The footballer, meanwhile, dressed comfortably in a pair of track pants and a matching black shirt. 

Jimmy and Amelia share a daughter together, Paloma, one.

In April 2023, a former Geelong Cats player and his partner shared the news of their baby daughter, Paloma’s, arrival on social media.

He announced the arrival of his baby with a sweet Instagram post, sharing a black and white photo of the newborn holding his hand.

He announced the arrival of his daughter, Paloma Lucie Bartel, with a sweet message saying she’s already stolen his heart.

‘Amelia, I’m in awe of you. Love you so much. Aston and Henley [his sons] will love you so much.’

Jimmy and Amelia shared the happy news that they’re expecting a baby girl at a small gender reveal party in October 2022, not long after celebrating their first wedding anniversary.

Before his daughter Paloma was born, the father of three admitted to the Herald Sun that he was anxious about becoming a dad to a girl.

I’m absolutely terrified right now! We’re expecting a baby girl. My two older sisters both have sons, and this will be my mom’s eleventh grandchild – and her first granddaughter, which is amazing.

He admitted he was a little worried and was thinking about practical things, like how to style their hair.

Jimmy was previously married to Nadia Bartel, with whom he shares Aston and Henley.

The couple split in 2019.

Nadia and Jimmy tied the knot in February 2014 in a lavish ceremony on the Bellarine Peninsula.

Jimmy and his partner first crossed paths in 2008 at the Melbourne Formula 1 Grand Prix. He proposed to them four years later while they were in Mexico.

Fashionista Nadia, 40, is currently enjoying a high profile romance with boyfriend Peter Dugmore.
