TODAY show host Karl Stefanovic shares a photo of his 16-year-old daughter Ava at her school formal

 Karl Stefanovic is currently filming the TODAY show in New Zealand.

And while he’s away, he’s still very much a doting dad, with the TV star sharing a picture of his daughter Ava all dressed up to attend her first school formal.

Alongside the image of his 16-year-old, Karl penned a sweet message to his eldest daughter, writing: ‘Proud daddy chops moment. What a beauty. What a person. ❤️’

Earlier this week, her mother Cassandra Thornburn also shared pictures of her daughter, in which the teenager was beaming.

The brunette stood out at the event in a gold dress with spaghetti straps. 

She swept her hair back into a messy bun, while the front was parted down the middle.

Ava’s added some glamour to her look by rocking a smokey eye, teamed with a creamy nude lipstick.

She finished off her outfit with a gold glomesh pouch and minimal gold accessories.

Meanwhile, her date looked dapper in a classic black suit, with a white shirt and black tie to accessorise.

Along with Ava, Karl and Cassandra also share sons Jackson, 22, and River, 14.

Following his split from their mother in 2016, Karl and Jasmine met in late 2016 and married two years later, in December 2018.

The couple welcomed their first child together, daughter Harper, in May last year.
