Lara Bingle reveals why she loves living back in Australia after years in the US – before gushing over the ‘wild and wonderful’ reality of being a mother to three young sons
Lara Bingle recently relocated to her native Australia with her husband Sam Worthington, after several years based in the United States.
And on Tuesday, the jaw-dropping model, 33, revealed why she’s loving being back Down Under to raise her three children – Rocket, five, Racer, four, and 10-month-old River – in the country she grew up in.
In an interview with The Daily Telegraph, Lara explained that she loves the ‘fresh air, unspoilt nature, beaches, seeing my family and mangoes’ that Australia brings, before opening up on family life with her boys.

‘I love that no matter how glamorous my day can be, being a mother pulls me right back into my wild and wonderful reality,’ Lara, who is the new face of swimwear brand Seafolly, said.
‘Also spending time with my family at the beach is something I am cherishing. These moments at the beach are special and remind me of my childhood.’
Lara said that during her downtime, she loves to make food or have dinner with her girlfriends, or go down to Cronulla in Sydney to see her family.
The loved-up couple arrived back in Australia with their children in January.
