Who’s in and who’s OUT of Australia’s most elite social circle as celebrity accountant Anthony Bell throws his famous Boxing Day party
In reflecting upon the lives of these captivating individuals, I find myself utterly intrigued by their whirlwind romance that unfolded under the glamorous backdrop of Melbourne’s Derby Day and the picturesque landscapes of the French Riviera. Annika, a dynamic woman who has carved out her niche in the health and wellness sector with her weight loss program, Goop Gang, and Bell, a man of mystery whose charisma is undeniable, make for an enchanting couple that seems to have captured the hearts of many.
Their journey together thus far is reminiscent of a fairy tale, filled with public outings, stolen moments on superyachts, and shared smiles that speak volumes about their connection. As someone who has always believed in love stories that are as unpredictable as they are heartwarming, I find myself rooting for these two individuals whose lives seem to be intertwined by fate.
Now, let’s not forget the essential ingredient that every great love story needs: a touch of humor. So here it goes – I can only hope that their future together is as smooth sailing as Bell’s superyacht and filled with just as many exciting twists and turns! May they continue to navigate the uncharted waters of love, leaving us all in awe of the beautiful journey they embark on.
They say Christmas is for family, and Boxing Day is for friends.
On December 26th, you won’t find a more exciting spot than the renowned yearly bash thrown by celebrity financier Anthony Bell, held at his luxurious $10.3 million waterfront estate in Noosaville.
On Thursday, we have unique snaps revealing a lively gathering filled with influential figures enjoying chilled Aperol Spritzes amidst the warm Queensland sunshine while toasting with their glasses.
Among all the attendees, the standout was Karl Stefanovic, host of The Today Show and a fellow owner of holiday homes in Noosa. He was accompanied by his model daughter Willow and her Argentinian boyfriend Genaro Abdala Garcia. Their friendly banter hints that Genaro has become quite close to the family.
But there was one notable absence.
At the recent gathering, I couldn’t find my longtime buddy, the Money Man’s former confidant, Michael Clarke. His conspicuous absence at Bell’s glamorous nuptials with Annika Martyn hints that our bond has suffered an unfixable fracture.
Over a prolonged period, the bond between Anthony and Michael weakened following an incident where the ex-Australian cricket captain was caught on video arguing fiercely with his ex-partner, Jade Yarbrough, outside a restaurant in Noosa during January 2023.
In the video taken by a bystander, Jade is seen crying out that Michael had been unfaithful with fashion designer Pip Edwards, whom he was allegedly seeing secretly. Michael denied the accusations vehemently, swearing on his daughter’s life that nothing of the sort had occurred. Meanwhile, Karl – who is both Jade’s brother and Michael’s friend – intervened to halt the escalating argument.
The incident turned out to be a significant reputational setback for ‘Pup’, one that he might struggle to overcome, and it appears to have led to the deterioration of his friendships with both Karl and Anthony, who was not only a friend but also a business associate.
In March, it was made known to the public that the Clarke-Bell split occurred when Michael switched to a different management firm. Around the same period, he also disposed of his share in the $15 million yacht Ghost, which they had jointly owned since 2022.
A few months passed, and upon making a public statement, Anthony implied that his departure from the business was due to the deterioration of their personal relationship.
2023 events strained my friendship with Michael so much that maintaining a professional relationship became unfeasible, he explained.
‘We wish Michael all the best in his future.’
Although Anthony and Michael are no longer friends, it’s evident that he maintains a cordial relationship with Jade, Michael’s former girlfriend. Interestingly, Jade and her sister Jasmine graced Anthony’s Boxing Day celebration together.
Jade, currently in a relationship with property developer Paul Gedoun, appeared content and at ease while interacting with other prominent attendees within Bell’s circle of acquaintances.
Additionally, it was noticed that Karl, her brother-in-law, was partaking in drinks alongside Anthony and his wife, Annika. Impressively attired, Annika donned an eye-catching orange minidress and stylish Valentino heels.
Alongside her chic floral mini, Jasmine vigilantly monitored their four-year-old daughter Harper, who had vanished from their house in Noosa days prior to Christmas, eventually discovered napping under a chair.
The party comes after Anthony and Annika tied the knot near Noosa last month.
The wedding ceremony took place at Yandina Station, a former cattle ranch now transformed into an upscale rural estate, sprawling over 14 acres and offering breathtaking vistas of Mt Coolum, located on the Sunshine Coast.
Following their wedding vows, the newly-married couple hosted their guests at a reception situated within the charming Historical Dairy Barn on the premises.
One attendee commented, ‘The event was wonderfully heartwarming, you could truly sense the affection filling the venue.’
In their matching outfits, the new couple’s kids were styled to complement them. Ryder chose a sharp black-and-white suit, while Bell’s girls donned sophisticated little black dresses adorned with white bows.
Annika chose a simple halterneck wedding gown, and paired it with a long beaded veil.
Annika has a four-year-old daughter named Taylor and a 16-year-old son called Ryder, who she co-parents with her former husband, cricket player Damien Martin.
Regarding Bell, a businessman, it’s worth noting that he was once married to television host Kelly Landry from Getaway. Together, they have two beautiful daughters, Charlize who is 11 years old, and Thea who is 8.
In May 2024, they officially announced their engagement, having made their initial public appearance together at the Derby Day event in Melbourne back in November 2023.
At the glamorous gathering, Bell shared with Daily Mail Australia about his fresh relationship, stating, “For a couple of months now, we’ve been spending time together… However, this Derby Day marks our first public appearance. Aren’t we lucky to have chosen such an unassuming event.
In September 2023, whispers about Annika and Bell’s relationship started when she posted numerous photos showing them having a great time aboard Bell’s yacht, located in the French Riviera.
Based on her LinkedIn bio, Annika serves as the Director for Goop Gang, a woman-focused weight management initiative.
