WHO SEXIEST
They’ve been one of Australia’s hottest couples since they took out The Block prize in 2017, so it’s no surprise to see model Elyse Knowles and her tradie boyfriend Josh Barker pop up on WHO’s Sexiest list.
But when it comes to talking about what they consider their most attractive qualities, Knowles, 27, and Barker, 31, come across as somewhat shy.
“My calluses on my hands,” Barker laughs. “I don’t really know! My calves?!”
It’s a little easier for Knowles to pinpoint the sexiest thing about her boyfriend of six years.
“His long hair, when it’s salty from the surf or up in a ponytail,” she tells WHO, adding, “When someone is kind and cares about others before themselves… that’s sexy.”
Barker is spoilt for choice when it comes to his model girlfriend’s most desirable qualities, but he quickly answers, “Probably her body!”
It’s a fair call –Knowles’ super-fit body has helped land her impressive campaigns with the likes of Tag Heuer and Myer.
“I walk the dogs every day,” she says of keeping fit around Byron Bay, where they moved from Melbourne earlier this year. “And I do a lot of weight training.”
When it comes to celebrity crushes, Knowles can’t be too jealous about Barker’s top picks.
“Jennifer Aniston,” he says. “Actually, Cameron Diaz… she looks a bit like you, Knowles!”
