She’s undergone a dramatic weight loss transformation in recent months.
And Julie Goodwin looked slender as ever on Sunday as she touched down at Sydney Airport with her husband-of-30-years Michael on Sunday night.
The couple were spotted picking their bags up from the luggage conveyor belt and making their way through the terminal before jumping into a car outside.
The MasterChef star, 54, cut a low-key figure for the arrival, dressing down in a pair of khaki trousers, a floral blouse and a puffer jacket.
Completing her look was a pair of sneakers, drop pearl earrings and Julie’s signature thick-rimmed glasses.
Michael meanwhile sported an all-black ensemble consisting of a T-shirt, shorts, socks and sneakers.
It is believed the couple were returning from Broome, where Julie and her husband attended several events to promote Tourism Western Australia, including the ‘Festival of the Pearl’ known as Shinju Matsuri.
It comes after Julie recently issued a statement defending her weight loss after fans raised concerns about her health.

She shared an update on Instagram after a new photo, in which she looked very slim, was posted to her account.
Her dramatic transformation led to comments from worried followers.
‘Thanks to all who have expressed concern about my health. I am well, and I am within the healthy weight range. My doctor concurs,’ she wrote.
‘For those who have asked me for advice or tips, I am not qualified to provide this. It’s advice that should be sought from your trusted health professionals, not from me. I’m a TV cook,’ Julie continued.
‘For those who want to comment on the shape and condition of my body, please do it on your own page because I’m tired of reading it. For that reason, I’ll be turning off comments on this post.
‘For all of us, can we please find something more interesting to talk about? Can we please model kindness to our kids and grandkids, and can we please leave this obsession with people’s looks back in the 1980s? Peace and love.’
Julie was prompted to speak out after a recent selfie led to comments asking whether she was ‘sick’.
‘I’m actually concerned… to be honest, but if you are healthy and well, there is nothing to worry about,’ one fan commented.

‘Oh Julie… too much weight loss,’ another chimed in, while one more said, ‘She is sick. She looks shocking.’
‘Julie, you are awesome, but are you okay?’ someone else asked, with one more posting, ‘Are you okay, Julie? You don’t look okay. Hope there’s nothing wrong.’
‘She looks like a skeleton,’ one more person wrote, with yet another saying, ‘OMG you look so ill.’
Others defended Julie, with one person writing, ‘Love how people speculate she is on the jabs. My bet is she is looking after herself and eating the right foods.’
‘OMG Julie, you look amazing! You have a beautiful smile. Keep shining!’ another said.
One more chimed in: ‘Can everyone stop commenting on Julie’s weight and telling her she’s too thin? All you’re doing is projecting on her what YOU think she should look like. If she had always looked like this, no-one would say anything.
‘Just be happy for her that she’s happy, her doctor’s happy, and she’s healthy!’
Julie recently revealed she had lost more weight following her dramatic ‘accidental’ transformation, which saw her drop a whopping 20kg almost a decade ago.
The celebrity cookbook author shot to national fame after winning the inaugural season of Network Ten’s MasterChef Australia in 2009.
