Sophie Guidolin claims she has to fork out $4,000 per week in rent while her home is 'rebuilt' from 'cyclone damage' - as she teases starting an OnlyFans to get by

Sophie Guidolin has claimed she will be out thousands of dollars due to damage from ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred last month.
The fitness influencer, 36, jetted off to Europe with her twin daughters Evie and Aria, nine, before the storm hit landfall and caused damage to her lavish Gold Coast home.
Now, the online personality has claimed on Instagram she will have to pay up to $4,000 a week in rent or $76,000 for three months in an Airbnb while she 'rebuilds'.
'Wow. I am so sorry to anyone trying to find housing recently. I am beyond sorry. Like mind-boggling,' Sophie captioned a video of her searching for an Airbnb.
'What are people doing to afford these rental prices? Our home will be six month min. rebuild so need a short-term lease.
'Either Airbnb at $76k for three months or between $2-$4k a week for us.'
Ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred heavily impacted Queensland and New South Wales in early March.
While it weakened to a tropical low before making landfall, it still caused widespread damage, including strong winds, heavy rainfall and flooding.
It wreaked havoc in southeast Queensland and northern New South Wales, which were smashed with severe thunderstorms and 'life-threatening' flooding.
Both Brisbane and the Gold Coast were hammered with a 'rapid ramp-up' of torrential rain late Sunday, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.
'Basically from the CBD out towards Ipswich, and then right through Kenmore, Mount Cootha, and through the Samford Valley — some of the rainfall totals are getting to pretty phenomenal levels,' Bureau of Meteorology's Matthew Bass told ABC Radio Brisbane at the time.
Many residents across the Gold Coast stranded by major flooding were advised to seek shelter and 'get up as high as you can'.
Sophie teased she will need to start an OnlyFans for her feet just to get by while her home is being fixed after the damage caused by the storm.
She shared screenshots to her Stories of a DM she had with her friend discussing the idea.
'Reckon if our toes touch people will pay more for an OnlyFans account?' Sophie asked her friend, who replied: 'Tempting.'
She went on to say she has 'ballet big toes', but Sophie's friend claimed she had fans who called her feet 'magnificent'.
'I wonder if anyone would recognise my feet,' Sophie captioned one of the screenshots.
However, it seems she was only joking as she followed it up with another post telling her followers she would never start and adult subscription account.
'Guys, I am getting so many of you DM me about this. I am not actually going to do this. My teenage boys would murder me at the thought,' she wrote.
'Even of my feet. Lol however all the power to the boss women out there with little butter on the stubs secretly under their desk haha.
'I wish I could pull this off. I couldn't pull off a one night stand let alone an OnlyFans or foot account. After the day you have had. I thought this was a joke.'
Sophie shares twin daughters Evie and Aria, and sons Ryder, 15, and Kai, 16, with ex-husband Nathan Wallace.

Burst of warm weather predicted for Australia's east before cold front brings wet and windy conditions in week ahead

Australia's eastern states will get a burst of warmer weather over the next few days, ahead of an approaching cold front and northerly winds that will bring wet and wintry weather across the southern parts of the country. After a cold start on Saturday, which saw a number of locations through inland New South Wales experience their coldest June morning in years, temperatures in the south-eastern states will start to warm on Sunday. 'We've got a burst of warmer conditions that are forecast,' said Sarah Scully, a senior meteorologist at the Bureau of Meteorology. 'We're forecasting 22C for Adelaide tomorrow, which is 7C above the June average. That warmer air will shift in eastwards, reaching Melbourne on Monday [which is] forecasting 19C and Sydney for Monday and Tuesday, forecasting 21C for both of those days.' Sign up for Guardian Australia's breaking news email But this warm reprieve will be followed by a cold front and northerly winds pushing across the country, reaching South Australia on Monday afternoon and crossing Victoria on Tuesday. The cold front is expected to bring with it the potential for showers, storms and winds, with moderate rainfall expected as the front pushes up the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range of eastern Victoria and NSW. Weather warnings may come into effect due to winds in the week ahead. 'There is another system that's [forecast to move] through on Wednesday that will reinvigorate the winds, with the wind warning potentially extending into the NSW ranges and even parts of the Illawarra and the Sydney district as well,' Scully said. 'The heaviest rainfall totals will be about the eastern ranges of Victoria and the south-east ranges of New South Wales … and the exposed coasts may also see some moderate rainfall totals. 'That includes the coastal parts of south-east South Australia, and also Western Victoria as well as eastern and western Tasmania.' Sign up to Breaking News Australia Get the most important news as it breaks after newsletter promotion Drought-affected parts of south-east South Australia and western Victoria should receive some rainfall, but the moderate rainfall totals are likely to be confined to coastal locations, Scully said. In a boost to an already stellar ski season opening, snowfall is expected on the eastern ranges in Victoria and the snowfields of NSW beginning on Tuesday, with the potential to receive between 30cm to 60cm of snow by the end of the cold front. Multiple weather warnings are in place for Western Australia. A strong cold front is currently crossing the state, bringing scattered showers, rain, thunderstorms and gusty winds to the southern half of WA. 'There is a severe weather warning current for the south-west coast and southern coast for damaging winds,' Scully said. 'So that really includes places like Margaret River all the way around, including Esperance up towards Israelite Bay.'

Simple mistake parents make during a heatwave could be deadly for your child

We've all got our children's best interests at heart but efforts to protect them could be putting them in danger Scotland is edging ever closer to the possibility of a heatwave, as a blast of hot weather and sunshine arrives in the UK this weekend. The Met Office has even gone as far as to issue a yellow health warning for much of England. For Scots, if Thursday and Sunday in particular play ball with high temperatures, we could establish an official heatwave of our own, too. This is when Scotland enjoys consistent mercury on or over 25C for three days in a row. ‌ However, while parents and children are frolicking in the sea, building sand castles in the beach, or playing in the garden, there is one simple mistake they could make in the heatwave that could be deadly for their children. ‌ A recent piece from Netmums has warned against the common practice of covering your baby's pram with a blanket or muslin on sunny days. Experts warn that this can lead to dangerously high temperatures inside the pram. You may do it to shield your wee ones from the sun or help them nap, but a covered pram can heat up like an oven in minutes, putting your baby at serious risk of overheating or even heatstroke. The Lullaby Trust charity warns that doing so could raise the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). To illustrate the danger, childcare provider Sophie Campbell conducted an experiment using a thermometer and a child's doll. In a Facebook post, she explained how the temperature inside a covered pram or pushchair can rise. She dressed the doll, named Dolly, with factor 50, 5* UVA sunscreen, a drink for hydration, and a sun hat. Despite these precautions, she decided to cover Dolly with a blanket for shade and placed a thermometer inside. ‌ The temperature in the buggy started at 35C, but after just 12 minutes, it rose to 45C, and after another 15 minutes, it crept up to an alarming 50C. The gravity of the situation was clear for all to see, and Sophie used the example to urge parents to think again when using blankets for shade, as the potential consequences for a real child are horrendous. ‌ What's more, a cover can also hamper with a parent's ability to see their child therefore making it difficult for them to check on their tot or monitor their temperature. So, what is the alternative? The organisation advises using a clip-on sunshade or parasol for a pram or buggy. ‌ Svante Norgren, a paediatrician at a children's hospital in Stocklholm, threw weight behind the advice, telling Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet: "It gets extremely hot down in the pram, something like a thermos. "There is also bad circulation of the air and it is hard to see the baby with a cover over the pram." ‌ Sophie went on: "It doesn't matter what you put over the top, a muslin, blanket or towel, the results will all be similar, and the outcome could be horrendous. 'Still to this day, I see babies/children in pushchairs on very sunny and hot days with blankets draped over them to block the sun and heat out." She ended with a final plea to parents, adding: "Please do not do this." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Sydney, Melbourne weather: How cold it will get as high-pressure system strikes

A powerful high-pressure system parked over southeastern Australia has triggered a week of icy temperatures, just ahead of the year's shortest and darkest day of the year. Clear skies have spread across New South Wales and Victoria, with the system expected to keep clouds away into the weekend. While the days are sunny and mild, the nights have turned bitterly cold, leading to widespread frost and sub-zero temperatures. The Bureau of Meteorology's Jonathon How explained the system can cause cool mornings. 'We've got high pressure sitting on top of us which basically means sinking air, sinking air generally clears skies, number one,' he told Daily Mail Australia. 'Number two, it brings dry air down to the surface and that can mean cold nights.' Dry air, which contains less water vapor, traps less heat, allowing temperatures to plunge overnight. On Thursday morning, regions along the Great Dividing Range - from Victoria to Queensland - recorded temperatures below -4C. Marrangaroo, west of Lithgow in NSW, saw the coldest reading at a bone-chilling -7.7C. Frosts are forecast to continue across NSW, Victoria, Tasmania's highlands, eastern South Australia, and parts of Queensland and the Northern Territory, including Roma and Alice Springs. The cold snap is expected to ease slightly over the weekend as the high-pressure system begins to move offshore. 'Overnight temperatures will gradually start to climb again and it won't be as icy,' Mr How said. Sydney's overnight lows could rise from 6C to 13C by late next week, thanks to a front bringing warmer northerly winds. The timing coincides with the winter solstice on Saturday, marking the darkest and shortest day of the year. 'You've got long nights and the longer the darkness the more that heat can leave the Earth's surface,' he said. 'And you've got less daytime to warm it up again. So we've really been approaching the coldest time of the year.' Hobart will see the least daylight of all capital cities - just nine hours and one minute. Sydney will get 9 hours and 54 minutes, while Darwin, being furthest north, will enjoy 11 hours and 24 minutes. Meanwhile, in the west, Perth braces for wet and windy weather as another cold front rolls in from the ocean, bringing rain, thunderstorms, and gusty winds. Canberra Friday: Morning frost.
