'Wolf Creek's John Jarratt leaves third wife for first wife

Wolf Creek star John Jarratt has caused a scandal by leaving his third wife for his first.

The 59-year-old Australian actor, who is best known for playing the villain in the 2005 horror movie, has reportedly "shocked" spouse Cody after he fell back in love with Rosa Miano while visiting her and daughters Zadia and Ebony at Christmas.

Cody told Woman's Day magazine: "I can confirm John and Rosa are back together, but I'm too shocked and hurt to say anything further at this stage."

A close friend added: "We are all quite shocked by it. Cody is just devastated. When I saw them together a few months ago, they were very affectionate towards each other. Cody is angry and upset. For months, she and the boys believed everything was fine.

"Friends are angry for Cody and the boys and worried about the debts she's facing. Cody is going to be left up in Queensland, alone with her boys, a long way from her family in Sydney, in a house that is only part way through being renovated. Cody feels stuck because of her difficult financial situation."

John and Cody, who have 10-year-old Jackson and 8-year-old Riley, had been together for 12 years. Jarratt's second wife was actress Noni Hazlehurst.
