Nollsie, who today lives in the bush with his family, rose to fame when he placed runner-up to Guy Sebastian on Australian Idol back in 2003.
In a previous chat with 9honey Celebrity two years ago, Nollsie reflected on it being 20 years since he appeared on Australian Idol and his life changed forever.
“It doesn’t feel that long ago, but time flies, they say!” he said at the time.
“To still be a professional musician travelling the country and playing beat 20 years later after a singing competition, I’m so thankful and blessed.
“And it’s all because of the support the Australian public has given me over the years, during the ups and downs as well.”
It comes after it was revealed that the Aussie singer is set to become a grandfather for the first time.
He will become a grandfather, with his son Cody Noll, 24, expecting a baby with his partner, Jess.
