Nadia Bartel has wowed racegoers at the Melbourne Cup in a bold, bright yellow look, proving you don’t always have to stick with tradition and wear a dress on Cup Day.

The 34-year-old mother of two looked incredible in the yellow top and pants combo, pairing her wide-legged trousers with a sexy sleeveless blouse that showed off her toned back in a cowl-neck feature.

She accessorised her outfit with a large wide-brimmed hat – very on-trend this season – and a white clutch, while she wore her hair in a practical low bun, perfect for Melbourne’s unpredictable weather.

Since splitting from her husband Jimmy Bartel in August, Nadia has been having something of a career renaissance.

She also hosted the red carpet at the 2019 Brownlow Awards, and an appearance on the Channel Seven’s The All New Monty: Ladies Night.

Her incredibly successful fashion line Henne is constantly selling out and has become a hot influencer favourite on Instagram.

When she first announced her breakup back in August, Nadia revealed she was “heartbroken” by rumours that jimmy had been cheating on her with Melbourne woman Lauren Brand.

“It’s been a very difficult month for me and the boys,” Nadia told The Herald Sun at the time.

“Although I’m heartbroken, I don’t want to comment specifically on what’s been reported about Jim’s trip to the UK as I don’t think that is in anyone’s interests.

“My single focus now is to continue to protect, care and provide for my two beautiful boys as this is a personal matter. I am so thankful for my very supportive family and friends.”

Jimmy, who shares sons Henley, 10 months, and Aston, three, with Nadia, is now officially dating Lauren and the pair have gone public with their new relationship on Instagram.

The former AFL star has only commented once on his breakup with Nadia and has not denied the cheating allegations.

“It’s not great, but I am probably not going to provide any commentary on it,” he told Melbourne radio station 3AW’s in August.

“I know I am in the public eye and people are interested, but it is a private matter and I ask for a bit of respect because obviously Nadia and the boys (are) involved.

“I still enjoy coming to work and I love working with everybody in football. I love the game so I can’t see why I wouldn’t keep showing up for work.”
