Delta Goodrem made her first public appearance after claims were made by radio host Kyle Sandilands that she engaged in a ‘disgusting’ act with her ex-boyfriend Brian McFadden. Kyle alleged that he saw Delta and Brian “spit” into each other’s mouths. However, Delta was unfazed by the scandal and performed at a live event in Melbourne alongside Fifi, Fev, and Nick. Sporting a grey jacket and chunky gold hoop earrings, Delta sang her biggest hits for a crowd of 1,000 fans, marking her first public appearance since Kyle’s claims. Delta and Brian met in 2004, while he was still married to Kerry Katona, and got engaged in 2007 before calling it quits in 2011.
Brian McFadden moved on from Delta to date Vogue Williams in 2012, but the couple divorced three years later. Brian is now in a relationship with PE teacher Danielle Parkinson, and they welcomed their first daughter Ruby in 2021 via IVF following two miscarriages. On the other hand, Delta found love with long-term boyfriend Matthew Copley, and the couple announced their engagement last year. Despite keeping their relationship private, Delta and Matthew seem happy together. Delta rose to fame in the UK for her role as Nina Tucker on Neighbours and her hit song “Born to Try,” which reached number three on the UK charts. She also briefly dated Nick Jonas in 2012 before they split. The Mirror reached out to Delta and Brian’s representatives for comment on the scandal.
Kerry Katona, Brian McFadden’s ex-wife, revealed that if she had not joined Brian in the recording studio to sing with Delta Goodrem, their lives may have taken a different turn. Kerry and Brian were married from 2002 to 2006 and share two daughters. Despite their breakup, Kerry is thankful for her time with Brian and reflects on how things might have been different if she hadn’t gone to the recording studio with him. Kerry maintains that if someone falls out of love with you, there is nothing you can do to change that. Delta and Brian’s relationship was a whirlwind that ended in 2011, leading both of them down different paths in their personal lives and careers.
Delta Goodrem’s first public appearance post-scandal showed her resilience and focus on her career. Despite the claims made by Kyle Sandilands, Delta remained composed and showcased her talent to her fans in Melbourne. Delta’s relationship with Matthew Copley is a source of joy for her, as they announced their engagement last year. Brian McFadden has moved on from his past relationships to find happiness with Danielle Parkinson, with whom he now shares a daughter. Kerry Katona reflects on her time with Brian and how things might have been different if she had made different choices. Overall, this scandal has not deterred Delta, Brian, or Kerry from moving forward in their lives and finding happiness in their respective relationships and careers.
