Veteran comedian Dave Hughes stuns fans with an unexpected display of his toned physique on the beach.
Comedian Dave Hughes showcases his fitness at 54, sharing a shirtless beach selfie on Instagram from Byron Bay, Australia, earlier this weekend. The photo, taken ahead of his evening comedy show, received praise from fans and other celebrities, with one commenter declaring, "Looking great!"
Hughes, sporting aviator sunglasses and beach shorts, confirmed his confidence with the caption, "Is it me or the rain that's scared everyone off Byron Main Beach?" The comedian added a playful label to the image, calling himself the "hottest and only guy on Byron Bay beach."
Hughes has been married to his wife, Holly, since New Year's Eve in 2006, and they share three children together. The family resides in Melbourne.
In August 2022, their long-running breakfast show, Hughesy, Ed and Erin, was axed from 2DayFM. The program, which began airing in 2020, struggled to maintain an audience and ultimately failed to secure a market share in the latest ratings survey.
SCA, the station's parent company, expressed gratitude for the hosts' dedication to the show, stating, "We are incredibly thankful to Hughesy, Ed and Erin for their unwavering dedication in making the 2DayFM Breakfast show a fun way to wake up Sydney each morning since 2020. We wish them the best."
Reports suggest that millions were spent to salvage the show, but it ultimately succumbed to dismal ratings and a challenging connection with Sydney listeners.
Despite this setback, Hughes remains active in the entertainment industry, hosting events and appearances on other radio programs. Meanwhile, speculation persists about potential upcoming projects for the comedian and his former co-hosts.
Hughes' beach selfie has been trending in entertainment news, showcasing his lifestyle and fitness at 54. The photo, shared on Instagram, also caught the attention of fashion-and-beauty influencers and celebrities. In a recent interview, Hughes also discussed his aspirations in the fashion world, revealing a possible collaboration in the lifestyle category.
