Carrie Bickmore has solidified her standing as one of Australia\u2019s most authentic media personalities by sharing a far-from-flattering version of herself that\u2019s garnered a flood of support from celebrities and fans alike.<\/p>\n

The Hit radio personality \u2014 who hosts the Carrie & Tommy show with Tommy Little \u2014 posted a vulnerable \u201cbad day\u201d selfie from her bed on Tuesday as she explained her state of mind.<\/p>\n

\u201cPosted this pic to my stories and got flooded with people having bad days too,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I thought I\u2019d post it here and you can add a \u2018bad day here too\u2019 comment and we can all drown in our flatness together and not feel alone. Tomorrow is a new day \ud83e\udd79\u2665\ufe0f\u2665\ufe0f\u2665\ufe0f\u201d.<\/p>\n

Typically well-presented on screen or in the studio, the image depicted a crestfallen version of the former The Project host whose mascara had become smeared across her upper cheeks.<\/p>\n

\u201c(Also how quick did my \u2018don\u2019t mess with me attitude\u2019 disappear \ud83e\udee0 \ud83d\ude02),\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

\u201c(Also the black mark is mascara running down my face)xxx\u201d.<\/p>\n

Renowned for her easy-going attitude and bubbly persona, the 45-year-old was met with a wave of support from her high profile mates.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh no. This made me cry \ud83d\ude2d I feel you. Tomorrow is always a new day. Btw you have the cutest cry face xxx,\u201d TV personality Sophie Monk responded.<\/p>\n

\u201cStay strong lovely. You got this\ud83d\ude4fSending you lots of light, love and hugs.\u2764\ufe0f\ud83d\ude18,\u201d former tennis pro Jelena Dokic wrote.<\/p>\n

Podcaster Oliva Molly Rogers said simply, \u201cLove you \u2665\ufe0f\u2665\ufe0f\u201d.<\/p>\n

The image follows an almost identical post from March 2025 in which a teary-eyed Bickmore sought to remind her 789k followers that \u201cwe all have sad days\u201d.<\/p>\n

The presenter\u2019s willingness to unmask her emotions was more publicly expressed in November upon being awarded Victorian of the year at the Australian of the year awards.<\/p>\n

As the founder of BC4BC \u2014 a brain cancer charity founded 10 years ago \u2014 the media star and health advocate conceded she wouldn\u2019t have been in a position to claim the honour if not for her late husband Greg Lange\u2019s cancer battle.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really bittersweet to be honest, because I wouldn\u2019t be here unless my late husband had died,\u201d a teary Bickmore told those in attendance.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd so while I a graciously accept the award, if I could go back and make that little 21-year-old, young Carrie, not have to watch her boyfriend have a seizure in bed and then endure a nine-year battle with brain cancer, I would do that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The mother shares son Oliver with Lange, and daughters Evie and Adelaide with ex-partner Chris Walker, announcing her split from the latter in January 2023.<\/p>\n

In late December, Bickmore returned home to WA for a refreshing beach holiday surrounded by family, declaring \u201cthe worst fly season in 40 years did not dampen the most amazing week with my sisters and nieces and our kids in Eagle Bay\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Perth-raised figure posted several images from the beach smiling as she soaked up sun in the summer hotspot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Carrie Bickmore has solidified her standing as one of Australia\u2019s most authentic media personalities by sharing a far-from-flattering…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":397527,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[64,63,447,134,995],"class_list":["post-397526","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-influencers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/397526","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=397526"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/397526\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/397527"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=397526"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=397526"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=397526"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
