Guess who? Australian TV star looks unrecognizable as she shares flashback photo from when she was a teenager

This Channel Seven star rose through the ranks after winning an internship in 2006 where she made coffee for team members.

Today, the 40-year-old has been in the journalism industry for 18 years, at one point working as a reporter on 2GB and covering the Beijing Olympics for Seven.

In 2011, she moved up the ranks at Sunrise to become weather presenter, replacing Grant Denyer, and then moved to the entertainment desk.

Other TV gigs under her belt include co-hosting roles for Dancing With The Stars in 2013 and Australian Spartan alongside Hamish McLachlan in 2018 and 2019.

The media personality now works as a news anchor on Sunrise, taking over the position from Natalie Barr in 2021, and hosts Sunrise Early News.

Do you already know who this teenager is?

It's Edwina Bartholomew!

The veteran journalist shared a photo from her teenage years on Instagram on Sunday that showed Edwina as a very happy youngster sitting on a swing.

She looked almost unrecognizable with her very short brown locks, a far cry from the long blonde tresses she currently sports.

In the snap, Edwina opted for a completely bare face as she wore a simple black top and blue jeans, holding a pair of sunglasses in her hands.

“I’m in high school. No social media,” the caption read as Edwina called on her followers to sign the 36-month petition.

The social change initiative aims to change legislation to raise the minimum age at which Australian teenagers can register on social media from 13 to 16.

Edwina's post comes after she revealed her country hotel renovation suffered a major setback due to the wild NSW weather.

She and her husband Neil Varcoe bought a heritage property in Carcoar last May and since then the restoration has been delayed by six months.

Speaking to Realestate.com last month, Edwina said recent heavy rains in the area had taken their toll, damaging the building and creating a cost explosion.

“We had a lot of storms in the area that very quickly revealed serious leaks in the roof,” she explained.

“Our floors were damaged due to a large leak in one of the skylights, we lost a few windows in a hail storm, and the plaster in one room was literally crumbling off the wall.”
