A fired up Michael Clarke unleashed on good mate, Karl Stefanovic and called him a c*** after copping a barrage of expletive-filled abuse and insults from his girlfriend Jade Yarbrough, who accused the cricket legend of cheating on her.
Disturbing footage continues to go viral of the ex-Australian cricket captain and Today show breakfast host embroiled in a wild late-night stoush in front of shocked onlookers at a public park at Noosa last week.
Below is a blow by blow account of what happened during the fiery altercation.
The pair were holidaying together on Queensland‘s Sunshine Coast with their partners, sisters Jade and Jasmine Stefanovic (nee Yarbrough), when all hell broke loose while having dinner with celebrity accountant mate Anthony Bell.
The melee broke out over Clarke’s ex-girlfriend – high-profile fashion designer Pip Edwards – after his current partner Jade claimed to have found recent texts between the pair on his phone.
Stefanovic and his wife Jasmine rushed to her sister’s aid to try and defuse the fracas between Jade and Clarke which spilled from a beachside restaurant into a nearby park in front of stunned diners.
A furious Jade claims in the video that Clarke slept with Edwards on December 17 and that he messaged his ex asking her to come to India with him.
The two-minute video of the heated clash obtained by The Daily Telegraph shows a shirtless Clarke being yelled at as he tries to protest his innocence.

‘I’m wrong? I’m f****ng wrong! You’re a f*****g liar. I can see everything. You called her,’ Jade screams.
Clarke tries to reassure Jade that he had not slept with Pip and claimed he had been with his mate Bell on the night in question.
‘Baby, baby, Belly was at the house. Do it to me, do it to me, Belly was at my house. I swear on my life.’
He then swore on his seven-year-old daughter Kelsey Lee’s life that he did not cheat on Jade.
‘I swear on my daughter’s life, on my daughter’s life,’ Clarke says.
But Jade doesn’t believe his desperate protests and claims she spoke to Pip.
‘You’re f******g lying to me. You are a piece of s**t. I just spoke to her. What is wrong with you?’ she yells.
Clarke replied: ‘No I didn’t. You can hit me. That’s not true, that’s not true.’

He appeared to have injured his hamstring in the melee and was seen hobbling across the park after he was pushed to the ground by Jade.
Stefanovic’s wife Jasmine eventually steps in to separate the feuding pair by grabbing her distressed sister by the arm and dragging her away.
‘Get away with Karl, get away with Karl,’ Jasmine orders Clarke.
Jade can be heard crying as she’s taken away.
‘I f*****g hate you,’ she tells her boyfriend.
Clarke tries to follow Jade before unleashing a wave of fury at Stefanovic.
‘Karlos, I can tell you now c**t, don’t you f*****g walk away. She can, she can punch me, but you, you c**t,’ Clarke says.
The comment sparks fury from Jade who defends her brother-in-law before slapping Clarke repeatedly in the face.
‘You piece of s**t, don’t you f*****g speak to him,’ she yelled.
Bell repeatedly tells the couple to stop, which falls on deaf ears as Clarke challenges Jade to hit him again.
‘Go, hit me hit me … do it again, you’re wrong, you’re f**king wrong,’ he yells.

Jade screams: ‘Oh am I wrong? You f**ked her (Pip) on December 17, you f**ked her… you’re a f**king dog … I’m going to show her every f**king message you ever f**king sent me.’
She makes reference to a text she saw on Clarke’s phone inviting Pip to come to India with him.
‘Oh yeah, you’re the love of my life Pip, come to India,’ Jade recalled.
An angry Clarke replied: ‘Don’t ever talk to me again.’
The two minute clip ends with her sister Jasmine and Bell separating the feuding couple.
‘Stop Jade, stop,’ Jasmine pleads.
Bell adds: ‘Let it go Jade.’
The ugly altercation unfolded in front of young children nearby, according to shocked witnesses.
Many were appalled by the shocking behaviour of the celebrities involved.

‘We were in the park and saw something erupt, and lo and behold it was one of the most famous cricketers in the country and one of the most famous TV identities in Australia fighting each other,’ one witness told The Daily Telegraph.
‘It was gobsmacking. At the end of the day, these guys are public figures … I just know if you’re a public figure, you can’t behave like that,’
A remorseful Clarke has taken full responsibility for what happened.
‘I’m absolutely gutted I’ve put people I hold in the highest regard in this position. My actions in the lead-up to this altercation were nothing short of shameful and regrettable’ he told the publication on Wednesday night.
‘I am shattered that because of my actions I’ve drawn women of class and integrity, and my mates, into this situation.’
His former partner Pip distanced herself from the ‘debacle’ as she issued a brutal swipe at Clarke when contacted by Daily Mail Australia.
‘This is not my circus. Yet again, Michael in his true nature has not taken responsibility for his actions and I was blatantly lied to,’ Edwards said.
