Karl Stefanovic's 19-year-old son Jackson has hinted that relations between them are still strained - three months after the Channel Nine star married shoe designer Jasmine Yarbrough in Mexico.
It was widely rumoured last year that father and son were 'estranged' amid Karl's bitter divorce from his ex-wife, and Jackson's mother, journalist Cassandra Thorburn.
And despite standing by his dad by flying to Los Cabos for his wedding in December (albeit for the reception only, he didn't attend the ceremony), it seems Jackson is still struggling to come to terms with Karl's decisions.
'Despite what happened, he's still my dad. I'll leave it there for now': Karl Stefanovic's son Jackson, 19, has hinted their relationship is strained. Pictured: Jackson (right) with Karl (left) and Jasmine Yarbrough on December 2, 2018 at Los Angeles Airport
In an interview with Woman's Day on Monday, the university student chose his words very carefully when asked about his father.
'What's done is done,' he said when asked about Karl's decision to leave Cassandra in 2016 after 21 years of marriage. 'Despite what happened, he's still my dad. I'll leave it there for now - who knows what happens next.'
While this seems to suggest that Jackson's relationship with Karl, 44, is on shaky ground, he had nothing but praise for his mother, Cassandra.

Jackson said: 'My mother is the most extraordinary person, and what she has weathered in these past few years, no one deserves the backlash.
