“We make the best out of the situation at hand.”
Jodi Gordon has donned many roles over the years. Martha MacKenzie in Home and Away, Elly Conway in Neighbours, and Kylie Keogh in Underbelly – just to name a few.
While she’s had a number of high-profile roles in the entertainment industry, it’s evident that being a mother to her daughter Aleeia is her most important role.
Her ex-husband Braith Anasta, whom she married in 2012 before divorcing three years later, is the mother of her sole child.
Despite their breakup, Jodi and Braith have maintained a strong co-parenting relationship, always prioritising Aleeia’s needs.
Jodi and Braith married in 2012 before they split in 2015.
When it comes to co-parenting, Braith told Now To Love in 2020 that it’s all about routine and structure for their daughter.
“She is here with us as a family from Monday to Friday and then Jodi has her on weekends,” the Fox Sports personality told the tabloid.
“She can see her whenever she wants, and she probably does, since she’s in Sydney. She can just go hang out.”
Jodi previously stated that it isn’t always easy for her and her ex to coexist.
“Braith and I have always worked together, and we make the best of whatever scenario we’re in,” Jodi previously told Nine Honey.
“It can be difficult. I’ve talked to a lot of single moms about it and how difficult it may be at times, but you get through it. It’s the same with everything in life.
“You do your best, you be the best mother you can, and you can make it work as long as you have support.”
While Aleeia has been and will continue to be Jodi’s primary concern, the actress has found time for love and relationships over the years.
Jodi began seeing investment banker Sebastian Blackler in 2020 after her divorce from Braith, and the two had an on-again, off-again romance.
According to reports, the pair split up last year after police issued identical AVOs against them following an altercation in April.
Jodi unveiled her new relationship with Aiden Walsh months later, but they secretly parted in December, according to the Daily Mail Australia.
Jodi and Aiden went public in 2021, but appear to have split.
Jodie’s present relationship status is unknown, although she is focused on her upcoming endeavour, Celebrity Apprentice Australia.
Celebrity Apprentice, which premieres this month, is Jodi’s first appearance on television since playing Elly Conway in Neighbours from 2016 to 2020.
And, much to the pleasure of Neighbours fans, Jodi will reprise her role for the long-running soap’s conclusion this year.
