The start of their relationship was marred by controversy, with Karl’s reputation taking a hit after he split from his wife of 21 years, Cassandra, in September 2016.
By February 2017, Karl went public with Jasmine, a former model turned shoe designer who is 10 years his junior.
“I certainly didn’t expect to meet someone five months after I separated from my wife. It wasn’t planned, I didn’t know her before,” he explained in an interview with The Daily Telegraph’s Stellar Magazine in July 2017.
Despite telling the publication they were “taking things very, very slowly,” the couple announced their engagement just seven months later.
