Trevor Butler

Trevor Butler

Trevor Butler was the winner of Big Brother Australia 2004. As well as being the first, and currently the only, contestant to win $1,000,000 AUD, as opposed to the $250,000 of previous seasons, he also boosted interest in the final eviction by proposing to his then-girlfriend Breea Forrest live on the eviction stage.

There was some controversy regarding how much of his winnings were taken away as tax. At one point the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) considered it to be payment for spending the time in the house, and therefore wanted to take nearly half of the winnings away. The ATO eventually gave in and did not take the money.

Trevor and his wife live in Tweed Heads in far north New South Wales. On October 11 2007, Breea gave birth to their first child, a boy named Maika Jeremy Butler.

Trevor was one of seven celebrities to feature in a television program named "Celebrity Overhaul". The program aired in February and March 2005. All five episodes won the highest audience numbers for the Sunday 6:30 p.m. timeslot. Trevor lost 15 kg.

Trevor appeared in an episode of Summer Heights High as a special guest on "Polynesian Cultural Appreciation Day".

Trevor lived most of his life in Broken Hill, New South Wales before appearing in Big Brother
