Stars flock to Yallingup for wedding rematch!
Last December, the retired pro surfer Taj Burrow married his baby mama, the former Bondi model Rebecca Jobson, in a remarkably modest ceremony.
Modest, because as anyone who’s ever circled in his orbit knows, the forty-year-old owner of a beer company ain’t afraid of a good time.
And, as a man who put pals before world titles, before…winning…it ain’t a stretch to call him the most popular surfer, among his peers, and fans, of all time.
Big call?
On Saturday, pals flew in from around the world, including grammy-award nominated DJ FISHER (who would forget his passport and miss his private plane home), nightclub wrangler Shane Moran, Stab founder Sam McIntosh, photographer John Respondek and trainer-to-the-stars John Gannon, for a wedding rematch at Black Brewery Co in Wilyabrup, Western Australia.
Right about now is where we cue up a few of Chris Rock’s married jokes.
Like,
“Those are the choices you’ve got in life, man. You can be married and bored, or single and lonely. Ain’t no happiness nowhere.”
“Whenever I go out with other married couples, I like to bring along a single crackhead. Just spicing up the activities. ‘Come on, tell us some of your cracky tales, please!’ ”
“Fellas, once you get married you become your wife’s pet. Cause women like to get their husbands together, that don’t even know each other, and have like a grown-man play date. Put you in a room with some other married motherfucker, and go ‘he likes baseball just like you’. Then you’re in some room with some fucking stranger, going ‘I like baseball.'”
It don’t gotta be like that, and a man like Tez, who’s seen it all and eaten most of it up, was never going to marry poorly.
“Reflecting on the wild wild cards that are on my table right now and going into the new year knowing that nothing matters more than the wonderful people you surround yourself with. Hold those close to you and hold them tight, tell them you love them 150 times a day and enjoy the simple pleasures in life. Like sitting on a grassy hill by the ocean, sipping a gin and tonic with your nearest and dearest and watching the waves and the clouds roll in,” Jobson wrote after that first ceremony, which was held so her sick mom, who has now passed away, could see her daughter get married. “Life is one crazy ride and I’m so lucky to be surrounded by the best breed of humans. Thank you for looking after me when I need it most. Be safe everyone, hoping you have a ground breaking earth shaking 2019.”

Type it,
Don’t think about it,
Just post it
May Huey be with you.
Amen.
Don’t think about it… mmmmm nah.
I’m going though a relationship break up, so I’m well versed in texting, re reading it then deleting the whole text… it probably saved me $10,000 last week alone…
nvm
Oh yeah with relationships no text is a good policy, the girls can go on and on forever.
But here we got you to delete the shite, right?
Sounds a lot like work to me Bex.
I’d rather you think instead of me…
I think youve got them pretty well trained anyway

Women (and other sexual / life partners) are like surfboards;
Fun to ride until they delam and the salt gets into ‘em.
I’d upvote you… but she might see.
is she a bit partial to correcting your grammar?
BeachGrit keeping up its tabloid reputation
Bet Taj copped it the next day, ‘can’t believe you made pose next to the skank!’.
I would like to ask you all to study the photo at the top of this. How happy does wifey look? Already looks like she’s settling in to married mode well with barely impressed resting bitch face.
Also, why wasn’t beachgrit invited for exclusive coverage.
And lastly, seems like Fischer learning well from the school of Bruce
The chick beside her is at the grammies right now while she is cleaning shit off her gremmie right now.
Can’t believe she was a model, she’s got a face that could scare a robber’s dog out of a butcher’s shop.
Maybe she has a really nice personality?
They say it photographs well.
Nah, dude, not the one in the white shades. She’s the stunner in the white dress…
Ah she looks mellow, she’d have to be to be with such a man-grom, and stood the test of time it seems. And she’s fukn stunning. All o ya’ll are obviously into blue-eyed blondes…
Jeez, she could write for WSL ….
..meaning his missus? She puts the “I” in Vapid.
Zactly, H my man.
Well, it’s obvious Taj likes to have parties with all his mates…good on him.
You only live once, do it up like there’s no tomorrow!
He’s a real nice man, very loyal to his pals etc.
In other news, Margaret River’s only cocaine dealer was seen purchasing a new Bentley on the Sunday following the ceremony.
Fuck mate spend some time on the North Shore in the 80s and 90s….snow mountain!
He won’t be hard to spot when his tyres start snorting up the white lines on the road while he is cruising along ?
A second Bentley?
Did Fisher just spin his banger track on repeat – would have been epic!!
Which one? He has so many! Ya Kidding! Losing It! Crowd Control! Oi Oi! Tell me when to stop…
I was trying not to think mate – prob “losing it” on repeat??
Fuck all these shiny pinheads having a good time.
Nothing prepares a man for marriage. No wait, that’s childbirth. Nothing prepares a man for childbirth. As you were.
What’s so hard? Have a drink, look out the window, wipe the gizzards from your glasses at the moment of reveal etc.
FYI – on mobile, maybe desktop too, now an ad is always placed between the article picture and the article itself. One above the picture, which is fine, but also one below which really throws off the flow between picture and article.
I get an ad from Booty Bands. It ain’t so bad. https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
They finally invented the push up bum bra for white girls . First you make them slaves and then you steal their bum ?
White Devil just can’t help hisself.
So happy to see that old mate Shane Moran , The Daggy Dancer Extraordinaire , is still alive and kicking .Made my day and if I make it to Canggu in Bali I hope he will LETTUCE INN .
Our first born was a 33 hour marathon that started on a Sunday and ended a Tuesday. When the kid was out, I had more concern and respect for the wife. Brutal. And what’s worse, paid for a night in a hotel I didn’t get to use. Caught a few hours curled up in a bean bag in the corner.
Next one was a planned cesarean (auto-correct?). Much more civilised. And as it turned out, apart from the little fucker being arse about, he had managed to loop the umbilical cord around is neck, so a good ting all round.
I am not at all squeamish , and I wasn’t phased ,but until I witnessed it I could never have imagined the pain ( hers not mine ) and the sheer amount of BLOOD AND BODILY FLUIDS and then the joy of seeing the little buggers finally come out .
puppies ?
This is why I so dislike the term “baby mama”, it infantilises the most powerful thing a human being can do.
Understand your point Nick and also dislike the term however with the way world population is growing it’s way more powerful for people to decide not to have any children or only have 1
We had a similar experience.
I took drugs.
It helped her a lot.
“Caesarean”
I’m sure that’s what i had, but computer said no.
Yeah I just smashed about 15 icy poles waiting for the little bastard to rear its head.
At least you did something useful . I just stood there like a one legged man in a bum kicking contest while the secret women’s business was being done by the women .
Outside the room, I hope. That’s the old way. The correct way. The righteous true path.
And the way it should be.
A hideous, grizzly business that no man should have to witness.
Yeah but unfortunately I was standing next to them ! Totally useless .
It’s said to be akin to watching your favourite pub burn down.
usually the pub is rebuilt better than before.
And is happy for you to have a few drinks .
and welcomes all your mates
Hahahaha oh man fuck!
And with better wheelchair access.
Dont worry m8 they always rebuild a smoking area round the back
I still can’t shit right. Not sure what went wrong.
