- David Reynolds is convinced he has encountered a ghost
- Believed to have unfolded in a Melbourne apartment in 2014
- His wife Tahan Lew-Fatt also claims she saw an apparition
Aussie V8 Supercars star David Reynolds has raised eyebrows after claiming he and his glamorous partner had an encounter with a ghost in a Melbourne apartment pool.
Reynolds, who won the Bathurst 1000 in 2017 with co-driver Luke Youlden, was living with his partner Tahan Lew-Fatt in St Kilda ten years ago when the supernatural incident is said to have occurred.
The 39-year-old recalled that he was swimming laps in the complex’s pool when he felt something fly past him.
Reynolds is convinced that he then saw feet kicking, but he was the only person in the water.
“They weren’t sturdy feet,” Reynolds said News Corp. ‘They were transparent.
“It’s hard to describe, but they weren’t the feet of any living person.”
Startled, Reynolds quickly left the pool.
He didn’t tell his current wife – former Big Brother star and Miss Universe contestant Lew-Fatt – what happened, fearing she would dismiss his claim to left field.

But the next day the former grid girl claims she had her own encounter – this time in the spa, next to the pool.
Terrified, she quickly returned to their room, determined that she had seen the ghost too.
Reynolds then began delving into the supernatural and remains fascinated by his claimed experience.

He also follows a strict organic diet and often says to his wife ‘why would you eat an apple that has been sprayed with Mortein.’
