Kylie Minogue is joined by her ex Jason Donovan at Netflix doc

Kylie Minogue was joined by ex-boyfriend and former Neighbours co-star Jason Donovan at the premiere of her new Netflix documentary in London on Monday.

The pair played onscreen lovers Charlene and Scott Robinson in the Aussie soap, before going on to date in real life for four years before splitting in 1989.

The iconic songstress, 57, looked delighted to be reunited with the now London-based actor, also 57, as they cosied up on the red carpet.

Kylie was also supported on her big night by younger sister Dannii, 54, with the pair posting a fun clip of them getting ready together ahead of the red carpet.

The Padam Padam hitmaker stunned in a figure-hugging black dress which boasted a white lace trim and racy thigh-high split. 

Meanwhile Jason caught the eye in a white blazer and bright blue trousers, completing the look with a red flower in his button hole.

Dannii was also dressed to impress in a sparkly blue corset which she teamed with chic harem pants and sling back heels. 

Back in 2022 the pair returned to Ramsay Street as they reprised their iconic characters for what was to be the soap’s final ever episode, before the show was saved and swiftly axed once again by Amazon. 

In perhaps the most famous Neighbours moment, 20 million people tuned in to watch Scott and Charlene Robinson’s wedding in November 1988.

The pair’s friend and family were seen in floods of tears as Charlene walked down the aisle to Angry Anderson power ballad Suddenly, with neighbour Nell Mangel catching the bouquet.

Last year Jason reflected on his ‘profound’ romance with Kylie and admitted his wife Ange has found the public obsession with his superstar ex ‘hard’. You can read the full story here. 

Kylie opened up about her love life as she discussed dating narcissists and how she feels happier single ahead of the release of her Netflix documentary.

The star, who dated the late Michael Hutchence in the early nineties, also spoke about the profound effect their relationship had on her.

Kylie revealed she is currently single and realised after the end of her last relationship that she was comfortable on her own.

She told the Sunday Times’ Style magazine: ‘I don’t have a boyfriend. I was in a relationship, and when that ended, I realised I was OK on my own. 

‘I’m getting pickier. Narcissists… I’ve dated one and I’m grateful I now have that knowledge. That’s my red-hot “no”.’

In her upcoming documentary, Kylie, the star admits she ‘hasn’t found the same’ kind of love since her relationship with Michael, who died aged 37 in 1997.

Revealing she has been looking for the same ever since, in episode two she said: ‘I haven’t quite got it. I’ve probably been looking for something like that ever since.

‘He was a first for so many things and one was heartbreak. I was devastated. He was a rock star, which doesn’t just mean that he needs many women in his life, but he needed to go where he needed to go. But I know from people in his circle that he talked of me and thought of me. We were good together.’

Shrugging off the emotion, Kylie adds: ‘Shoulda, woulda, coulda — whatever. But it was an amazing time. The memories make me feel good, even if I’m getting teary. It was good to have someone, to feel like you were a good team. 

‘I’m fortunate. The emotion and the memories I have with that time — I just felt protected, nurtured, valued, and believed in.’  

Michael was the hedonistic frontman with rock band INXS and once described as ‘the sexiest man on earth’.

The showbiz world was stunned when, in 1989, squeaky clean Kylie embarked on a relationship with Michael.

Back then she was known for her infectious, bubblegum pop songs including I Should Be So Lucky and The Locomotion, while Michael was famous for his womanising, partying and electrifying stage performances.

In the new three part series Kylie opens up about her life with the man she met when she was 21 years old and about whom she once said ‘sex, love, food, drugs, music, travel, books, you name it, he wanted to experience it… as his partner I got to experience a lot of that as well’.

Michael broke up with Kylie in 1991 and died by suicide six years later, but more than three decades on she says she still ‘always feels he’s with me’, even though the pain of the breakup left her shattered.

The relationship became ‘more and more difficult’ due to the prolonged time apart while INXS were on the road, which made it ‘really hard’ for them to see each other.

Visibly emotional while talking about her former love she says she is very aware that the ’emotion and the memories I have with him and with that time might seem disproportionate’, adding she ‘just felt protected and nurtured and valued and believed in’ by Michael – who wrote the hit Suicide Blonde about her and the night he accompanied her to the premiere of her movie The Delinquents, where she donned a peroxide pixie cut wig.
