Jackie ‘O’ Henderson offered a glimpse at her healthy new lifestyle on Day. 

The radio queen went for a dip at Sydney’s Clovelly beach where she did laps in the tide pool. 

The 49-year-old showed off her trimmed down figure in a retro, deep red swimsuit in a textured fabric. 

Jackie emerged from the water wrapped in a brightly coloured towel, her blonde locks down around her shoulders. 

She appeared to skip the makeup for her beach outing and went without any accessories. 

Jackie popped on a pair of sunglasses after leaving the water and appeared in great spirits.

She appeared to have gone to the beach solo and headed home after covering up in her towel.  

The media personality had earlier emerged from the bathrooms wearing a sarong over her swimmers.  

It comes after Jackie opened up about her negative relationship with food and struggle with binge-eating, revealing the insane amount she’d consume each day.

In her tell all memoir, The Whole Truth, the star revealed she has always had issues surrounding food and tried every diet like the lemon detox and keto.

But in the times she wasn’t dieting, Jackie says she was ‘binge-eating all weekend’, insisting her healthy habits will ‘start on Monday’.

‘I’ve never had a clinical eating disorder, but I have always had a very unhealthy relationship with the way I view eating,’ she writes.

Jackie says during her childhood, she would set her alarm for 5am each morning and make toast with white bread lathered with ‘peanut butter and butter (double the butter!), or butter and cinnamon sugar’.

During her marriage to now ex-husband Lee Henderson, Jackie’s diet once consisted of ‘hamburgers, hot chips and pizza’, and one night she consumed a whole jar of Nutella and a glass of champagne for dinner.

She highlights the ‘vulnerable’ moment’s Lee would point out her weight gain and how they have stuck with her to this day.

‘I remember getting changed in the walk-in wardrobe, standing there naked and vulnerable, and Lee walked past and I caught him looking at me in the mirror with an expression of disdain or disgust. 

‘I’ll never forget that look. Sometimes he would wrap an arm around me and grab a spare tyre. ”Look at that!” he’d say as a joke, but I wondered if it really was.’ 

It got to the point where Lee suggested she undergo a full body scan ‘because he thought I was obese’.

‘I went and got one… and I wasn’t obese,’ she continues. ‘I was overweight, though. Probably just eating my feelings, and my palette wasn’t discerning.’

Later on in her memoir, Jackie explained her recent weight loss came down to strict diet and exercise after overcoming her addiction battle with drugs and alcohol.

‘Naturally, after three years of sitting on a lounge consuming copious amounts of fast food, alcohol and sedatives that slow down the metabolism, the body will go into shock and shed the kilos when that stops,’ she writes.

‘Rumours circled that I was taking Ozempic — because surely I must be on the weight loss wonder drug to have had a transformation so dramatic.’

Jackie, who has shed a whopping 18kg in the space of less than a year, looked like a supermodel following the slim down, her KISS FM co-star Kyle Sandilands recently said

‘Last year, she left to go on holidays looking like Roseanne Barr and came back looking like Elle Macpherson. That was the biggest surprise of my life,’ he said

‘Even seeing my child being pulled out of my wife’s stomach was not as surprising as Jackie walking back through in a size-six dress. I nearly died’ he added

Jackie also revealed the shock extent of her drug and alcohol addiction in images taken moments before her rehab stint.

Photos of the star, who checked into the Betty Ford Clinic for drug and alcohol addiction in 2022, show her smoking her last cigarette while awaiting the results of a Covid test.

In the picture, Jackie’s Chanel handbag lays face down next to her as she lights up the cigarette while sitting in the gutter of a car park outside the admissions office.

Another image shows Jackie flying business class as she travels ‘incognito on the way to California and rehab’.

The never-before-seen pictures have been unveiled in her new memoir which chronicles the radio star’s extensive drug use.

In the memoir, Jackie explains she started taking ‘codeine pills with a glass of wine’ in a bid to escape reality.

‘It was casual at first, until it wasn’t. Truth be told, while over the years when times got tough, I’d go to the chemist and grab myself some Nurofen Plus to take the edge off, now it was different,’ she writes.

‘To experience any kind of high, I had been taking roughly ten Nurofen Plus tablets at once for years. Now that I was deeper into my addiction, I was taking that much three or four times a day.’

Jackie admitted her addiction began taking a turn for the worse following her divorce from Lee Henderson, to whom she married from 2003 until 2018.

The divorce saw her spending less time with daughter Kitty, now 14, which made her suffer with excruciating bouts of sadness and loss.

‘In an attempt to cope with the loneliness and guilt I was feeling, I made another bad decision. I began taking sleeping pills — Stilnox — on the days I was alone, as a way to numb the loneliness,’ she continues.

‘It was a coward’s way of dealing with my pain, finding comfort in what was slowly becoming an addiction.’

Jackie details the great lengths she would go to conceal her addiction from friends and explained how she would hide and dispose of the empty pill packets kept in her home.

‘I didn’t want to put them in a bin… I kept them all in a white plastic bag instead, and then at the end of two weeks I would dump my disgrace into a random bin on the way to work,’ she adds.

The media star went on to open up about her rapid weight gain during the peak of her addiction, which she says was brought on by drinking ‘a bottle of wine’ or a gin and tonic, all while taking Stilnox, then ordering UberEats ‘every day’ during Covid.

When Jackie took her break from the show in 2022, her co-host Kyle Sandilands told listeners she was stepping away to ‘focus on her health’ after contracting COVID-19.

But she was instead checking into the Betty Ford Clinic to combat her addiction.

Jackie admitted she was ashamed of her secret, fearing public judgement, and decided to get help after hitting rock bottom.

The star said she wanted to publicly speak about her addiction battle to reduce the ‘stigma’ around drug dependence and ‘normalise’ it.

Jackie, who has shed a whopping 18kg in the space of less than a year, looked like a supermodel following the slim down, her KISS FM co-star Kyle Sandilands recently told Stellar Magazine.

‘Last year, she left to go on holidays looking like Roseanne Barr and came back looking like Elle Macpherson. That was the biggest surprise of my life,’ he said.

‘Even seeing my child being pulled out of my wife’s stomach was not as surprising as Jackie walking back through in a size-six dress. I nearly died.’

But speculation kicked off again after WW, under the leadership of CEO Sima Sistani, has started to embrace semaglutide drugs like Ozempic

Reacting to the news on the The Kyle and Jackie O Show, Jackie exclaimed, ‘That makes it look like I was definitely on Ozempic!’ 

Newsreader Brooklyn Ross then asked Jackie if she was ‘annoyed’ she had to lose weight ‘the hard way’ instead of just using a semaglutide for a quick fix

Curious newsreader Brooklyn Ross turned to Jackie and asked her, ‘Do you know what the biggest [you weighed] was?’

‘The biggest was 80’, she replied.

Jackie’s admission comes after she was once forced to deny that Ozempic is behind her spectacular slim down.

Ozempic, an appetite suppressant previously used to treat Diabetes type II, has seen an increase in prescriptions for obesity in recent years and is now used by many celebrities to keep a trim figure.

Jackie has always insisted she achieved her weight loss by going on WW (Weight Watchers), which she was an official ambassador for.

But speculation kicked off again after WW, under the leadership of CEO Sima Sistani, has started to embrace semaglutide drugs like Ozempic.

Reacting to the news on the The Kyle and Jackie O Show, Jackie exclaimed, ‘That makes it look like I was definitely on Ozempic!’

She jokingly added, ‘I was like a guinea pig in that experiment.’

Newsreader Brooklyn Ross then asked Jackie if she was ‘annoyed’ she had to lose weight ‘the hard way’ instead of just using a semaglutide for a quick fix.

‘I mean, they make a good point and I’m really impressed that they’re with the times,’ she said.

‘You see so many people doing it and being successful and it not really being that hard for them.’
