Karl Stefanovic 'I'M Devastated'

Karl Stefanovic is having the year from hell. After the Uber-gate scandal and rising tensions with his co-host Georgie Gardner, the 43-year-old is not in a good space

- 

And now, hitting yet another career low after being snubbed for a Logie nomination, it’s getting too much for the TV staple and he’s since been seen seeking comfort from his young fiancee Jasmine Yarbrough, 34.

Looking visibly distressed, it seems Karl is suffering and insiders reveal to New Idea that the TV personality is falling apart as his professional life takes a major downturn.

‘Karl is devastated that he’s been snubbed for a Logie nomination,’ an industry source spills.

‘Professionally he’s just taking blow after blow after blow at the moment, and he’s at the end of his rope.’

And the Today host isn’t the only star who’s been snubbed by the prestigious awards show. The Project’s Waleed Aly and Karl’s former colleague Lisa Wilkinson were also overlooked for nominations.

Back in April, Karl was spotted locked in conversation with Carrie Bickmore – who has been nominated for Most Popular Presenter – prompting speculation that the TV host was attempting to lure The Project star over to the Nine Network. The two personalities have long been good friends, and to have her onside would help ease the on-set tensions between himself and Georgie.

However, with the news of the shock Logie snubs, everyone has been left wondering whether they’ve been cursed like Karl.

‘Everyone is talking about “The Karl Effect,” ’ says an industry insider.
