The former Studio 10 panellist, who was axed from the program in 2020, recently sold her sprawling property in Sydney’s Woollahra of over two decades for $22 million, snapping up an apartment in Double Bay. To lighten the load, Kennerley will reportedly flog timber furnishings along with evening gowns, 15 pairs of shoes, hats and scarfs, in an online sale, according to The Daily Telegraph.“I am a well-known hoarder,” the 68-year-old joked of her wardrobe.“Basically I am moving house after 24 years so a lot of stuff I have accumulated, including stuff I collected from the 70s and 80s in New York, has to go.”The online auction will be announced soon by Lawsons Auctioneers.Kennerley sold the home she shared with her late husband John in August last year. The eye-watering off-market sale broke records in the area with its $22 million price tag.John died at the age of 78 in February 2019 from complications of a tragic fall in 2016 that left him wheelchair bound.He was paralysed after slipping from a balcony while taking a photo during a golf tournament in Coffs Harbour, NSW, in March 2016.After being airlifted to hospital with fractures to his C2 and C3 vertebrae, he was put in an induced coma, spent six weeks in intensive care and had multiple operations. Doctors diagnosed him as an incomplete quadriplegic.In the years that followed, he faced several health challenges, and eventually died “peacefully” in his sleep with his wife by his side.Sharing a photo of their wedding day on Instagram, Kerri-Anne wrote in the caption it was with “a heavy heart and awful sadness” that she confirmed her husband’s death.“John passed away peacefully with his son Simon and me by his side,” she wrote.“John, you were the love of my life.”The two were married in 1984.
