Gina Stewart, an Australian OnlyFans star who calls herself the ‘world’s hottest grandma’, has made a sensational revelation about legendary Shane Warne. Stewart has revealed that she was dating the Australia legend who passed away earlier this year. Calling Warne a friend and confidante, Stewart stated that his death has left her devastated.

In March this year, Warne suffered a fatal heart attack in the island of Koh Samui, Thailand. Before his tragic death, Warne had posted on Instagram, informing his followers that he wanted to spend his time in Thailand getting shredded as part of a holiday weight cut. He was planning to get back to his peak physical condition just days before his death.

And five months after the tragic incident, Stewart has spilled the beans on her relationship with the cricket great. She revealed that her relationship with Warne did not become public because the latter wanted to keep it personal. She also revealed that she first spoke to Warne in 2018 and after exchanging a lot of messages they finally met in person in Gold Coast.

“I have been devastated over the last few months. The world lost a legend and I lost a friend and confidante. The unthinkable happened. I was dating Shane but it wasn’t well-known. He wanted to keep it personal,” Stewart told Daily Star.

“He arrived on the Gold Coast and I met him after a cricket game. We hit it off straight away and spent the whole night talking and getting to know each other. I found him extremely interesting and I loved hearing about his life and what made him tick. We became extremely close and I made a promise to him that I would keep our story out of the public eye

“At the time I had to be careful of the paparazzi as I had a publication trying to photograph me a lot where I lived. Shane and I would wear hats and sunglasses just to go out and we became creative on the Gold Coast and later Melbourne when I visited,” she added.

‘Always abided by Shane Warne’s wishes’:

Speaking further, Stewart revealed why she never revealed her relationship with Shane Warne to the public before. She hailed Warne as a ‘truly caring humanitarian’ and called him a legend.

“Shane was very unimpressed by the media and he did not want the story to get out so I had to decline offers and keep everything a secret.

“This is the first time I’ve spoken publicly about this and I always abided by his wishes and kept my life private. I couldn’t speak until now and I just want people to know he was a truly caring humanitarian. He gave back in so many ways through good deeds and he truly was a legend and someone who his kids can be forever proud of,” Stewart further said.

She also revealed that she had spoken to Warne before he had left for Thailand.

“I was in contact with him before he left [for Thailand] and he was a good listener. He made you feel like you mattered. He would tell me he felt so comfortable with me as if he had known me forever.”

Warne is regarded as one of the greatest ever cricketers to have graced the game. One of the finest spinners in the history of the game, he picked up 708 Test wickets at 25.41 in 145 matches between 1992 and 2007. Only Muttiah Muralitharan has more wickets than him. Warne represented Australia in 145 Tests and 194 ODIs.
