However, on Wednesday morning, during a live interview with Sky News’ Peter Stefanovic, questions turned to a dark chapter of the teenager’s past.
“There is a claim online that you stole a Polaris Ranger and Polaris quad that you and your friends stole and damaged from a business a few years back, first of all, is that true?” Stefanovic asked.
Mr Payne responded, “Yes”.
A teenager who became an instant millionaire after winning an elusive fishing tournament has offered to repay his old boss after being confronted about stealing a buggy on live TV.
Keegan Payne, 19, from Katherine in the Northern Territory, made national headlines on Monday after hooking a barramundi worth $1 million on Sunday morning.
However, on Wednesday morning, during a live interview with Sky News’ Peter Stefanovic, questions turned to a dark chapter of the teenager’s past.
In a moving twist, Mr Payne’s old boss – Bob Cavanagh from Cav’s Mowing in the Northern Territory – revealed he had received a touching offer on Wednesday.
“Out of the blue this morning, his father rang me and said, ‘Keegan wants to repay you,’ and you could have knocked me down with a feather,” Mr Cavanagh told Daily Mail Australia.
“He said Keegan has always felt so terrible for what he did.”
