They have been dating since March last year. 

And on the weekend, former MasterChef star Justine Schofield and ex-AFL player Brent Staker proved they were still going strong when they enjoyed a romantic camping trip in Queensland. 

The pair documented their ‘weekend under the stars’  in the idyllic and rural town of Goomburra on their respective Instagram accounts.

Justine, 36, shared a picture of their campsite by a river and joked that she was camping with Russell Coight, the fictional Aussie character and loveable larrikin bought to life by comedian Glenn Robbins.

‘Camping with Russell Coight… I mean Brent,’ Justine captioned the post. 

The pair enjoyed a weekend sitting by their campfire, exploring nearby waterfalls and eating bacon and egg rolls.

‘A weekend under the stars exploring Gordon Country & the surrounding national park. So good! no bites, no stings, no hiccups…no worries,’ Brent captioned his post. 

The genetically-blessed couple started dating in March last year.  

Brent, who played footy professionally for 13 years until his retirement in 2015, has even introduced his girlfriend to his family.  

In August last year, Justine briefly spoke about her relationship status during an interview with Gary Mehigan’s A Plate to Call Home podcast.

Offering a rare glimpse into her dating history, the blonde spoke of the break-ups she had while filming her Channel 10 cooking show, Everyday Gourmet.

‘I’ve had two terrible break-ups throughout the ten years, and it all comes down to not being around because I’m always on the road,’ she said. 

Justine revealed she’s since found a good work-life balance.

‘Now I’m in a loving relationship and I remind myself that I do need to say no to things sometimes,’ she explained.  

Justine previously dated TV presenter Matt Doran from 2014 to 2017.

Matt, who hosts Weekend Sunrise, is now engaged to the executive producer of Nine’s Weekend Today, Kendall Bora.
