Jye Emdur, the 32-year-old son of Gold Logie winner Larry Emdur, enjoyed a romantic beach outing with his new girlfriend, Emily Kaufman, on Saturday.
The couple cooled off in the water at Sydney’s Bondi Beach, where Jye stripped down to a pair of budgie smugglers and showed off his extensive collection of tattoos.
Emily, a model and former Miss Universe Australia finalist, turned heads in a polka-dot bikini as she cuddled up to her boyfriend.
During their swim, Jye was seen resting a hand on Emily’s backside before the pair embraced in the shallows.
Still smiling, they walked back up the beach hand in hand and paused at the outdoor showers to rinse off.
Jye confirmed their relationship in April, and the couple soon attracted attention online, with followers dubbing them Australia’s hottest new pair.

“Wow, lucky me,” the real estate agent wrote after the brunette posted a series of intimate photos of them on Instagram.
“Lucky ME,” Emily replied enthusiastically.
Under the caption “Sharing is caring”, Emily uploaded several images, including a romantic shot of the pair gazing into each other’s eyes while embracing.
She looked elegant in a figure-hugging maxi dress, while Jye opted for a relaxed outfit featuring trousers and a yellow shirt.
The model also shared a playful video of herself eating takeaway gelato and struggling to contain her laughter.
It remains unclear when the pair began dating. Jye previously separated from his long-term girlfriend, Taylor Jones, in 2023.
Emily, who was born in Taiwan and moved to Australia with her family at the age of two, is believed to keep her personal relationships largely private.
She is represented by Wink Models and graduated from Sydney’s Macquarie University last year with a Bachelor of Arts in Performing Arts and Entertainment Industries, having started the course in 2021.

Emily also made headlines in 2024 after being named one of seven New South Wales finalists in the Miss Universe Australia competition.
The latest sighting follows a report by The Daily Telegraph in August 2023 that Jye was “single and ready to mingle” after his split from Taylor.
In 2024, Jye was romantically linked to fellow real estate agent Bella Todman, with the pair publicly unveiling their relationship in December.
They shared regular photos together online, although the timing of their reported breakup has not been confirmed.
Jye, who previously worked as a model, is the eldest child of television personality Larry Emdur and his wife, Sylvie.
The prominent Sydney couple, who married in 1994, also have a daughter, Tia.
Tia, now 26, made headlines in 2022 when she announced her engagement to her long-term partner, Rowell Jauco.
After the engagement became public, Larry, then 61, revealed that Rowell had asked for his blessing before proposing to his daughter.

“All a father like me can hope and pray for is that one day his baby girl finds a partner who will love and adore, respect and admire, cherish and protect her the way he’s tried to,” Larry wrote on social media at the time.
“Well, that partner has arrived, and we feel very, very blessed. Congratulations on your engagement, you two lovebirds.”
“Rowell, thank you for being a bit old-fashioned and asking me if you could ask Tia for her hand in marriage.”
Tia and Rowell later married in a lavish ceremony at Sydney’s St Mary’s Cathedral in February 2024.
