Meet Billy Brownless New Partner Justine- Their Age Gap Compared

According to The Herald Sun, Billy Brownless lately disclosed a new beginning in his relationship life with Justine.

This was fantastic news for his admirers and supporters, who had long longed for him to find someone.

Despite dating one of AFL’s most recognisable legends, his fiancée Justine has kept a low-key look. They made their first public appearance in 2022 on Stakes Day.

People have been aware of his sorrows and difficulties since his divorce from ex-wife Nicki Brownless.

When it comes to finding love, Billy, a former Footy Show icon and Triple M radio personality, refers to himself as a “fisherman.” Brownless was compelled to reveal the truth after his Triple M teammates made fun of him for being seen out on dates with an unnamed woman.

Although he did not disclose any other information on Justine, she appears to be in her 40s based on images and information from The Heraldsun and Getty Images, respectively.

Billy Brownless Relationship With His Ex-wife Nicky

Before their divorce, Nicki and Brownless were married for over 18 years. After over two decades of marriage, they have two sons, Oscar and Max, and two daughters, Lucy and Ruby.

The AFL star and Nicki made news in 2016 after it was reported that they separated in 2015 after 18 years of marriage and that Nicki went on to date one of Brownless’s pals, Garry Lyon. Lyon left The Footy Show owing to despair as a result of the relationship, resulting in a severe feud between him and Brownless.

Both men’s marriages had failed before Nicky and Lyon came out as a couple, but Billy still felt betrayed because they had assured him they were “just good friends.”

After six years of hostility, Billy and Garry began steps toward reconciliation in 2020 when Brownless claimed they were in a “good circumstance.” They also spent Christmas Day together that year.

In a statement to the Herald Sun, Lucy, the daughter of a former Geelong player, said that the supper between the two mixed families was great and that everyone was happy to be there.

Although he admitted that he had not fully mended his friendship with Lyon, he hinted that the two “may” be able to get along again in the future.

Nicky Brownless And Garry Lyon Are Quite Close Despite Their Scandalous Start

Six years had passed since Nicky left her husband, Billy Brownless, for his closest friend Gary. Their relationship may not have started off well, but they appear to be quite close.

Garry Lyon and Nicky Brownless attended the Australian Open together and were more in love than ever, according to Dailymail. As they approached Melbourne Park, the former AFL player tenderly threw his arm around Nicky’s shoulder, beaming.

After the initial wave of unwanted attention, the two have kept a low profile and are rarely photographed together. Billy was taken aback by Garry six years ago when, only a year after their divorce, Lyon began dating his 18-year-old wife.

A month after the scandal broke, the Geelong veteran spoke out about how it had damaged his family, saying that “a good mate wouldn’t do that.” He suddenly confessed that Nicky and Garry had been covertly dating for a long time.

Despite their disagreements, the men have reconciled because they have celebrated Christmas as a mixed family for the past two years.

Billy and his children Oscar, Max, Lucy, and Ruby attended the holiday dinner hosted by Nicky, 51, and Garry, 55.

“I just said, everyone gets on a plane,” Nicky told The Daily Telegraph of the reunion. Both closest friends appeared pleasant in social media photos shot at Nicky and Garry’s Red Hill resort on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula.

LIFE AND CAREER

Brownless grew up in Jerilderie, a small town in New South Wales.

Brownless began his football career with his hometown team, the Jerilderie Football Club, when it was a member of the Murray Football League. He boarded for three years at Assumption College in Kilmore, Victoria, one of Australia’s most recognised “football nurseries,” a school with a strong reputation of producing footballers who have gone on to play in the AFL. Brownless scored 155 goals for the school squad in 1984, his final year at the institution.

VFL/AFL

Geelong invited Brownless to train with them, but he elected to return home to Jerilderie to spend time with family and friends, as well as play a season of senior football before heading to Geelong. During the 1985 season, while working as a farmhand, he scored 148 goals for the Jerilderie senior squad. Jerilderie advanced to the grand final but was defeated. Despite suffering an ankle injury in the semi-final, Brownless scored six of the team’s nine goals.

Brownless relocated to Geelong for the 1986 VFL season and began working as a groundskeeper at Kardinia Park. He stated that playing for Geelong was a logical move for him due to the rural nature of the town:

It’s very much like a big country town, and the club is very much like a country club. You’re all trailing one another and getting near. It’s a nice sensation.

Brownless made his senior VFL debut in Round 1, 1986, and quickly established himself as a powerful full-forward, earning the Cats’ best first-year player award that year. He went on to play 198 games and strike 441 goals for Geelong, ranking fourth all-time behind Gary Ablett (1021), Doug Wade (834) and Steve Johnson (443).

Brownless recalls kicking a goal after the siren against Footscray in the 1994 qualifying final as one of his favourite memories. With Geelong down by one point, he marked the ball within scoring range with just seconds remaining and converted a goal to advance Geelong to the next round of the finals. The Cats eventually made it to the grand final, but they lost. Brownless was a member of four unsuccessful Geelong grand final sides.

Brownless, who was 30 at the time, retired in 1997.

With 11 goals in a contest, Brownless holds the Gabba record.

State of Origin

Brownless made his State of Origin debut for New South Wales in 1988. He scored three goals in the State of Origin Carnival that year, two in the first game against South Australia and one in the second against Western Australia.

He returned to the State of Origin Carnival in 1993, this time representing NSW/ACT against Victoria. Brownless played at centre half back alongside Wayne Carey and John Longmire.

In 1995, he scored five goals and was voted one of The Allies’ top players in a triumph over Western Australia.

LIFE AFTER FOOTBALL AND A CAREER IN THE MEDIA

Brownless moved into the media after retiring from football, frequently appearing on The Footy Show. On The Footy Show, he played Joybell Bulger, the family matriarch, in “The House of Bulger.”

He began working as a sales agent for 95.5 K-Rock in Geelong. Soon after, he co-hosted a sport/comedy section called “On The Bench” with ex-Geelong player Dwayne Russell and Essendon supporter “Ferret” (Russell Taylor) twice a week on their “Big Mattress” breakfast show. “On The Bench” featured a slew of Geelong players as special guests, including Barry Stoneham, Tim McGrath, and Paul Couch.

In 1992, he won the first Mirrool Silo Kick in the Riverina, kicking an Aussie Rules football 32 metres or more over the Mirrool Silos.

It was reported in August 1999 that due to Brownless’ contacts in the local political scene, both the Australian Labor Party (ALP) and the reigning Liberal Party of Australia were eager to attract him into politics, despite his lack of experience. Labor leader Steve Bracks was a Geelong supporter, and Brownless had persuaded then-Premier Jeff Kennett’s wife, Felicity, to become Geelong’s female number one ticket holder.

Brownless has appeared on The Sunday Footy Show since 2005, in addition to his regular appearances on The Footy Show. Morning Glory, a daily breakfast show on Melbourne radio station SEN 1116, he also co-hosted. Brownless completed his five-day-a-week assignment in November 2008. Also, Brownless co-hosted Before the Bounce, a weekly Foxtel football show with Jason Dunstall and Danny Frawley, until the end of the 2008 AFL season.

Brownless was added as a regular on the Thursday night AFL Footy Show in May 2008 to replace an injured Sam Newman, but was demoted to guest panellist upon Newman’s return. And, Brownless has been a regular alongside Shane Crawford to replace Trevor Marmalade since 2009, alternating each week with Crawford and, since 2012, Matthew Lloyd.

Brownless joined Triple M Melbourne’s new drive show The Rush Hour with James Brayshaw in March 2010.

Brownless purchased Castlemaine, Victoria’s Cumberland Hotel.
