The Project co-host and radio broadcaster Steve Price has been spotted proudly attending an event with his arm around another radio identity.

Price attended the opening of The Continental Sorrento on the Mornington Peninsula this month with Sacha French, who is the content manager for the Hughesy, Ed and Erin radio show on 2DayFM.

The pair have been dating for several months, according to the Sunday Herald Sun, which reported Price had “debuted his new off-air partner” at the event.

Price had his arm around French, happily posing for photos with a huge smile.

Price is a columnist for the Saturday Herald Sun, is a regular on Channel 10’s The Project panel and has his own radio show Australia Today with Steve Price, which can be heard on Triple M and LiSTNER.

Other well-known faces at the event included model and influencer Brooke Hogan, Seven meteorologist Jane Bunn, TV presenter Eddie McGuire, former Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley and chef George Calombaris.

French is an ACRA-award winning radio producer, and was a long-time executive producer of Dave Hughes and Kate Langbroek’s radio show.

After winning an award for best show producer for Hughesy and Kate in 2018, French said: “We’ve been together for 15 years and it’s been an amazing journey. We’ve been through a lot together on and off air.”

Price will mark 50 years in the media this year.

Speaking about the milestone, he told Stellar magazine the biggest misconception about him was that he was a “right-wing shock jock”.

“I don’t even know what that word means,” he said. “Australia doesn’t really have anyone like the American shock-jock types, like Rush Limbaugh. Alan Jones probably comes closest.”

He also spoke about owning mistakes and apologising, like the time he called Jacinda Ardern “that woman”.

“I went on-air the next night, at my request, and apologised because it was a dumb thing to say,” he said.

“That’s the problem with half the politicians. They say stupid stuff and then don’t own it. When Scott Morrison makes mistakes, he should just own it and say sorry.”

Price defended The Project against being “too woke” and said he and co-host Waleed Aly had a good relationship despite having completely different politics.

“There is a wokeness to it, but we like to bust that wokeness open on Monday nights when I’m there. The people on the show aren’t really woke. There are issues that are covered that are a bit woke that I think are ridiculous.

“But I just say as much, and they’re happy for me to do that. I’ve been there for 12 years now; that’s a miracle. How many old white blokes last that long?”
