Bennett’s new love

BRISBANE Broncos and former Australian rugby league coach Wayne Bennett has reportedly ended his 42-year marriage.

Bennett, 66, moved out of the Brisbane apartment he shared with wife Trish about six weeks ago, according to the Courier-Mail.

It’s understood the split happened after Bennett fell in love with 50-year-old secretary Dale Tynan, who he met while coaching the Newcastle Knights between 2012 and 2014.

“As an NRL head coach and thereby a public figure, I today inform you about a personal matter and the fact I have separated from my wife and the family home some time ago,” Bennett said, according to a statement cited by the paper on Sunday.
