EXCLUSIVE: Society’s marriage spirals out of control when the star of Australia’s Next Top Model splits from the husband of a restaurateur and lives with a nightclub boss known for his infamous “no tattoos” rule
Australian model Charlie Austin has confirmed her breakup with the restaurant owner’s husband, Scott Robertson, by going public with another hospitality kingpin.
Austin, 30, has been sharing sweetheart messages on Instagram with nightclub boss Poata Okeroa for the past few months, while saying nothing about her previous marriage.
There is no suggestion of an overlap between the two relationships.
Okeroa is a business partner of entrepreneurs Julian Tobias and Eric Jury, owners of nighttime hotspots Sussudio in Potts Point and Flamingo Lounge in Kings Cross.
Last year, he made headlines when he banned diners with visible tattoos, “designer-labeled clothing,” and “heavy jewelry” from his Middle Eastern restaurant and nightclub Bedoin in Double Bay.
The controversial dress code was introduced to “discourage intimidating appearances,” he said at the time.

The pair have been romantically linked since November last year, having spent a number of milestones together, including New Year’s Day, Charlie’s recent 30th birthday, as well as a romantic getaway to the exclusive Osborn House hotel.
Despite spreading her new romance all over Instagram, little is known about Austin’s divorce from Robertson – the owner of Glass Island, a floating restaurant in Sydney Harbour.
The former reality star, who appeared on cycle seven of Australia’s Next Top Model in 2011, has quietly reverted to her maiden name on Instagram, having previously been referred to as Charlie Robertson.
The couple tied the knot in 2019 at the French-themed Deux Belettes wedding venue in the hinterland of Byron Bay.
She posted a gushing tribute to her husband on their one year anniversary.

‘365 days as Mrs. Robertson! Being married to you is a dream. You are the kindest, sweetest man I’ve ever known with the most beautiful soul,” she wrote.
“I am so thankful for you and the way you love me. Happy Birthday sweetie. I will carry your heart forever.’
Before tying the knot, Austin was spotted in 2015 aboard Leonardo Di Caprio’s superyacht, which was moored in the Mediterranean during the Cannes Film Festival.
She had a small role in the actor’s hit movie, The Great Gatsby, and it is believed she was one of the models he partied with while filming in Australia in 2012.
Austin has led campaigns for brands such as Running Bare, Bras N Things, Moontide Swimwear and Homebodii.
A spokesperson for Austin declined to comment on her breakup.
