She’s the Bunbury-born star who appears on Channel Seven.

The mother-of-two has been in the public eye since she was 21 and part of the same show for more than 20 years.

The brunette stunner shared a throwback on Thursday… but can you tell who this young woman with a perm is today?

The picture was unearthed from a high school photo album containing the TV star’s Year 12 portrait.

Her curly-hair was voluminous, with the 17-year-old sporting a fresh-faced look and wearing a crisp white shirt and tie.

This local celebrity has previously shared her embarrassment about the hairstyle with her 117,000 followers on Instagram, writing: ‘Peter Brady? ?? No.. Me in 1985. Bunbury Catholic College. Age of the perm. And the pimple.’

She launched her journalism career at the Wanneroo Times in 1987 and landed her first TV gig at 21 on WA’s Golden West Network.

She joined Seven News in Sydney as a reporter in 1994 and also presented afternoon news updates, before moving to Sunrise in 2003.

The successful media personality now juggles 3am wake-ups with motherhood for her role on the hit breakfast show.

Married to TV commercial editor Andrew Thomson, the mystery TV newsreader is Natalie Barr.

Natalie appears alongside Matt ‘Shirvo’ Shirvington, Mark Baretta, Edwina Bartholomew, and Sam Mac weekdays from 5.30am on Seven’s Sunrise.

‘Is that you or me Nat?’ Kylie Gillies asked her colleague on Thursday.

Natalie’s yearbook photo was first shared on the show back in 2018, when she was co-hosting alongside Samantha Armytage.

‘You were a very handsome little girl,’ Samantha said as she burst into hysterical laughter.

‘Stop laughing Sam!’ Nat said as her desk mate mocked her teenage looks.

The Golden Bachelor host added an additional barb for good measure.

‘You don’t want to be too pretty too early,’ Sam said, to which Nat hit her co-star with her papers repeatedly as she laughed along.

Natalie wed her husband Andrew in 1999.

The Sydney-based couple share two sons: Lachlan and Hunter James.

Natalie also addressed the perm in a Sydney Weekend interview in 2022 when she was asked to describe her biggest fashion faux pas.

‘Thirty years on TV… where do I start!?’ the TV veteran began.

‘The perm in the 80’s… I looked like some kind of dorky poodle.
