Australian sports host Grace Hayden has delighted her social media followers by sharing her puppy's first trip to the beach. The daughter of cricket icon Matthew Hayden posed for the camera in a tiny red crocheted bikini while enjoying time under the sun with her dog Winnie.
Fans shower praise on the stunner
The blonde host beamed with a broad smile as she held her pet pouch to the camera. Her fans raced to the comments section to shower her with praise, with one writing: "No doubt about your natural beauty!"
A cheeky second joked: "Mathew Hayden's best innings," racking up over 1,000 likes. A third responded: "Your boyfriend is the luckiest person in the world!" While a fourth declared: "Tough competition to Sydney Sweeney."
From cricket sidelines to commentary booth
Grace has become a regular on cricket sidelines down under. It was while at a game that she was almost left in a spot of bother after her dad made an incredibly bold promise about Joe Root's ability to break his duck of never hitting a century down under in the Ashes.
Root duly delivered as he hit his first century in Australia to rescue the first innings for England during the Ashes second test at The Gabba. The English batsman was 135 not out off 202 balls to finally register a ton down under for the first time in his career.
Hayden had promised to walk around the MCG naked if Root failed to score a century in the series. A relieved Grace took to social media to thank Root for not having to see her dad get his kit off.
Grace opens up about online criticism
Grace has also tried her hand in the commentary booth, pulling on a headset in the NRL. However, it's on social media where she truly shines, but even there her glam outfits have come under fire.
Opening up to Sydney Confidential, Grace previously said: "As a young woman, the sexualisation of anyone just doing their job continues to happen sadly and again, is never OK."
She added: "This is…another huge issue females face not just on social media. This is the unfortunate side of social media. With every job there is good and bad, and being a presenter is no different."
