Karl Stefanovic whinges that his wife Jasmine ‘buys stuff on Instagram all the time that never works’… after revealing her drunken phone call to the Queensland Premier
He revealed last month that his wife, Jasmine Yarbrough, had called the Queensland Premier after a few drinks to beg her to open the state’s borders.
And on Friday, Karl Stefanovic threw his spouse under the bus yet again when he revealed on air that she spends recklessly using Instagram’s shopping feature.
A whingeing Karl, 46, told Today show viewers that Jasmine, 36, often buys useless items that she stumbles upon on social media.
Sorry, Jas! Karl Stefanovic threw his wife, Jasmine Yarbrough, under the bus on Friday when he revealed on the Today show that she spends recklessly using Instagram’s shopping feature
He made the remark after entertainment reporter Brooke Boney spoke about George Clooney’s habit of using an at-home hair-cutting device, called a Flowbee.
‘My wife is mad for that stuff on Instagram,’ Karl said, referring to advertised products which are available to buy in just a few clicks.
‘She buys stuff on Instagram all the time and it arrives and it never works,’ he added.

Karl then joked that he once bought himself a ‘flotation device’, but it didn’t work.
‘Blame it on the flotation device, Karlos!’ Brooke responded with a laugh.
Last month, Karl apologised to Annastacia Palaszczuk for his wife’s drunken phone call, in which she begged the Queensland Premier to open the state’s borders.
We’ve all drunk dialled! Last month, Karl apologised to Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk live on air for his wife’s drunken phone call, where she begged the Premier to open the state’s borders
‘I wanted to apologise and give you my deepest apologies for my wife’s drunken call to you last Friday, telling you in her own very sweet Queensland way to open the borders,’ Karl said during the live interview.
When his co-host Allison Langdon asked what Jasmine had said, Karl impersonated his wife saying: ‘Please open the borders, Premier… please.’
To stop it from happening again, he joked that he’d saved the Premier’s contact details under his lawyer’s name on his phone.
Apology accepted: Ms Palaszczuk gracefully accepted the apology but sent out a warning to others about picking up the phone after a few drinks
Ms Palaszczuk gracefully accepted the apology, but sent out a warning to others about picking up the phone after a few drinks.
‘It’s okay. It’s perfectly alright. That’s probably one of the calmest ones I’ve heard, Karl,’ she said.
‘I understand how stressful it’s been on people… but maybe not the drinking and ringing up, stay away from that.’
Karl and Jasmine, a former model turned shoe designer, married in December 2018.
They welcomed their first child, daughter Harper May, earlier this year. Karl also has three older children from his marriage to former journalist Cassandra Thorburn.
