Brooke Warne forced to walk 30 mins to Melbourne Cup after protests

The daughter of the late Shane Warne, 26-year-old Brooke Warne, had a chaotic start to this year’s Melbourne Cup.

After several wardrobe malfunctions in the morning, the influencer was then caught up in pro Palestine and anti Melbourne Cup protests taking place outside the Carnival, forcing her to leave her car and walk 30 minutes in the heat in a desperate bid to arrive on time.

At 2pm she was finally eating for the first time that day.

“They were diverting all the traffic and we had places to be so we ended up having to walk,” Warne said.

Warne, who has recently been carving out her own name for herself on social media as a fashion influencer, stood out in a striking orange jumpsuit complete with a black fascinator at this year’s Cup.

She told NCA NewsWire despite the shambles of the morning, she was determined not to miss her scheduled appearance at the Schweppes marquee in the Birdcage on Tuesday.

“I had to walk for half an hour, up all these steps … in my heels,” Warne said.

“I didn‘t want to stuff anyone around so I thought, ‘I’ll just have to walk it’.”

Warne, accompanied by her partner and other friends, said she had no idea the protests were being held.

“I didn’t know what was going on,” she said.

“There was the Nup to the Cup people and also the Palestine protesters.”

Warne was joined on Tuesday by close family friends of her long-term partner, Alex Heath, who flew in from Wales solely to attend their first Melbourne Cup.

“It’s their first time they’ve ever been to the races and that’s all they ever wanted to do,” she said.

The 31-year-old said she had been enjoying the heat and was looking forward to the summer ahead, despite the difficulty of her father’s absence.

“Obviously it’s a bit hard now,” she said.

“But we come together as a family and go down to the beach and enjoy our day.”
