Vadim Dale was featured on the reality television show Outback Jack.[1]
Following his appearance on Outback Jack, he moved to Louisville, Kentucky and married the contestant he fell in love with on the show, Natalie Franzman in September 2005.[2]
Dale was chosen by People Magazine as one of their 50 Hottest Bachelors and was also featured in the 2007 issue of "The Worlds Hottest Men." He appeared on several New Zealand TV shows: Miss Popularity, Celebrity Treasure Island: Couples at War and the New Zealand version of Survivor on which he and his wife Natalie Franzman came in third place. He has also been guest host on many Australian TV shows including the smash hit "Celebrity Circus" in which Dale starred, Star Struck, The Great Outdoors and Getaway to name a few. During Outback Jack, Dale toured the United States promoting the show for the network and featured on several US talk shows, among them Live with Regis and Kelly, Good Morning America, and Jimmy Kimmel Live!
After Dale and his wife settled in Louisville, he trained two German Shepherds as search and rescue dogs, and eventually began working with his dogs at crime scenes alongside police officers. This sparked an interest in police work, and he entered the academy of the Louisville Metro Police Department in November 2009, graduating and becoming an officer in June 2010. He and his wife have three daughters, the youngest of whom was born while he was in the academy.[3]
