2:32PM Clem Bastow | Throughout the whole “OMG Jodhi Meares!” fiasco following her Australia’s Next Top Model finale no-show, news.com.au have been doing what they do best – peppering articles about her with “Read More” and tenuously relevant “Gallery” links.
The latter led to this particular gallery,

The caption reads:
Designer Jodie Packer (right) with a model as she prepares for her Australian Fashion Week parade for her new swimwear label Tigerlily, 2000.
A perhaps more appropriate caption, in light of events between 2000 and 2008, might have been “Designer Jodhi Meares with her future-ex-husband’s future wife.”
How did they not pick up on that!? (Although the misspelling of her name looks like it may contain some clues as to the “on it”-ness of the photo and sub-editors, she was in fact “Jodie” until 2002.)
In any case, I believe this is checkmate, Jodhi Meares. Actually, checkmate everyone.
