The Project’s Sarah Harris in excellent spirits amid rumours she’s dating Dr Chris Brown

Sarah Harris seemed to be in high spirits as she departed Melbourne Airport on Tuesday for a mystery trip.

The 41-year-old, who has been at the center of rumors for weeks that she is dating Dr. Chris Brown, had a big smile on her face as she strolled through the terminal.

The Project host was casually chic in a black T-shirt with white lettering on the front, over which she wore a wool camel coat.

Sarah added acid-washed jeans and white sneakers to her ensemble, as well as a red New York Yankees cap.

The television star carried a large black tote bag over one shoulder and rode a navy blue suitcase.

Sarah appeared to be wearing no makeup for the occasion, letting her natural beauty shine and tucking her blonde locks under her cap.

The sighting comes on the heels of news that Sarah, who announced her divorce from ex-husband Tom Ward in March 2021, is said to be ‘in love’ with the celebrity vet, 44, according to a new report.

“Sarah has confessed to her close friends that she has had a crush on Dr. Chris for years,” an alleged insider said. Women’s Day.

And they tell her to go for it. They are both single at the same time for the first time since they met. So it’s now or never to do something about it.’

The alleged source goes on to say that the pair have been sending each other “playful and flirty text exchanges” for months.

The television stars have “tried to arrange multiple dates,” the report continues, but have been unable to do so due to their busy schedules.

Sarah was recently questioned by the panel of the Channel 10 show about their relationship.

Julia Morris, who appeared as a guest on The Project and co-starred on I’m A Celebrity with Chris, put Sarah in the spotlight after saying she was shocked she was never “romantically” linked to the hunky TV vet herself .

“How have I never been?!” she asked the panel. ‘I’ve known you recently [Sarah] have been.’

Sarah was quick to quell the rumours, cheekily adding that she was in a relationship with another TV vet.

“Well, they’re wrong,” she replied.

“I’m actually… I’m in a relationship with a vet, but it’s Dr. Harry Cooper.”

Harry Cooper is best known for hosting the Channel Seven lifestyle program Harry’s Practice, which aired between 1997 and 2003.

He is happily married to his longtime partner Sue Sheean. The couple tied the knot in 2022 at their NSW Mid North Coast property.

It comes after Sarah was forced to deny rumors she was dating Chris on The Kyle and Jackie O Show.

Unconvinced by the reports, radio hosts Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson called Sarah live to get answers.

“Oh, my God, you two!” said a surprised Sarah after picking up the phone.

When asked if she ‘slept with’ the Bondi Vet star, the journalist said: ‘No!’

She then revealed that members of her family had been calling her ever since The Sunday Telegraph reported that she was dating him.

“You know my aunt also called and checked. No, it’s bullshit,” she said, adding that she had “no idea” where the tabloids got the story from.

“I haven’t even had my second coffee yet, you two,” Sarah laughed. ‘I’m too busy and boring [for this].’

Chris has yet to comment on the rumours. Kyle and Jackie O tried to call him on air on Monday, but he didn’t answer.

The host of I’m a Celebrity, who previously dated TV presenter Roz Kelly in 2012 and actress Kassandra Clementi in 2014, is known for keeping his love life a secret.

His last relationship was with influencer Brooke Meredith from 2020 to 2022.

In April, Chris told Something to talk about podcast he prefers not to open his love life to public scrutiny.

“The challenge is that meeting the right person is hard enough as it is,” he said.

“That extra layer of speculation and interest… once you’re in a relationship it’s easy, but meeting that person in the beginning is really hard.”

Chris, who has left Channel Ten and will join Seven Network in July, said media speculation about his romantic interests is “funny” for him, but could be a lot for his loved ones to process.

Meanwhile, Sarah announced her split from IT specialist Tom Ward in March 2021, after seven years of marriage.

The former couple share custody of sons Paul, seven, and Harry, five.
