Retired NRL star Braith Anasta is taking time off his TV hosting duties and has jetted off to Bali for a boys trip.
The getaway comes as thousands of school leavers descend on the Indonesian island for Schoolies week.
The 42-year-old posted several videos on Instagram of himself soaking up the sun alongside his mates at the iconic Single Fin beach club in Uluwatu.
The men appeared to be in high spirits as they enjoyed beers in a private booth overlooking the stunning ocean views.
Among the group are fellow rugby league stars Harry Grant and Tyran Wishart, as well as personal trainer Sean McInroy.
Braith also posted video of himself jogging shirtless on the road, flaunting his toned physique as he sweated it up in the tropical heat.
In another snap, the former athlete sported striped swim shorts and a backwards cap while strolling poolside.
The Bali getaway comes shortly after Anasta candidly admitted he’s still on the hunt for love.
Despite a very public appeal for women to meet him at a local bar, the former player remains optimistic.
The NRL 360 host recently told Daily Mail Australia he is working on himself after his heartbreaking split from fiancée Rachel Lee in November 2022.
Braith says he is now happily single, but he feels he will meet ‘The One’ soon.
‘In the last two-and-a-half to three years I’ve gone on this journey of self improvement physically and mentally,’ he told Daily Mail Australia.
Braith paraphrased the old adage that love finds you when you’re not looking for it.
‘You know what? I’m so focused on my work and on my daughters at the moment, and my fitness, that’s my priority.’
‘I’m confident I’ll meet someone soon, but I’m enjoying my time with my girls and right now I’m on a break from work, and trying to remain patient in that area.’
He shares Aleeia with his ex-wife Jodi Gordon and Gigi with his ex-partner Rachael.
He said his young children are helping him keep fit on the fun getaway.
‘They love the pool. Of course my girls keep me pretty fit, and they’re going to for a while,’ he laughed.
‘The little one’s very full on and they’re both very active. They don’t let me out of their sights, every two seconds you hear “Dad!”‘.
Braith confirmed on 2Day FM’s Jimmy and Nath in back June he was single and ready to mingle.
On the breakfast show, the former footballer was asked: ‘What does a girl got to do to get a date with Braith Anasta?’ and his answer was very direct.
‘Well they’ve got to be not pregnant! I feel like I’m on The Bachelor now,’ he joked.
‘I’m pretty cruisy right now, I’m open to any offers! I don’t have much time but if I can make it work, I’ll meet them at the Coogee Pavillion tonight at 4pm.’
The NRL legend revealed he’s been courting investors, not romance, in recent months in an effort to grow Strong Dad — the 8-week fitness program he founded after his divorce.
He told Daily Mail that he’s confident he’ll be able to launch it alongside the start of the NRL season in 2025.
‘The idea is helping men with their mental and physical health. My dad committed suicide when I was 15-years-old,’ he said.
‘Unfortunately, I see a lot of guys struggling the same way he did, and the way I did during the difficult periods of my life. That’s why it’s important to build a support network and a community.
‘I’ve got my best mates who I’ve leant on in tough times, but not everyone’s got that.
‘Guys struggle to talk to one another and need a comfortable environment to be able to do that organically.’
‘We’ve been working behind the scenes with a number of investors and making sure the right people are involved, for the right reasons, and there’s no shortage,’ he said.
Meanwhile, his ex-fiancee Rachael recently professed her love for her ‘high-ranking’ Bra Boys beau Evan Faulks by taking to the beach to carve her name into a rock beside his.
Lee and Faulks, who reportedly met at Crown Plaza in Coogee over Christmas, were photographed together in public for the first time celebrating her 36th birthday.
