AFL WAG turned designer Rebecca Judd recruits 11-year-old daughter Billie into the family influencer career

Rebecca Judd is proving that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree as she recruits her daughter Billie into the world of influencing.
On Thursday, the 42-year-old AFL WAG enlisted the help of her daughter, 11, to make several sponsored posts to her Instagram Stories to thank a bath and body brand for freebies.
'What have you got there?' Bec asked her daughter on-camera, who 'woo-hooed' as she unboxed a gift set from All Kinds in her school uniform.
Billie dutifully held up the press materials inside the box for the camera before Bec read them aloud.
'We've got a mini Spongebob, we've got shower foam, and bubblegum,' she said as she sat down to unbox the baby pink gift pack.

'Yeah try it,' Bec encouraged gently, as Billie reached for a lip balm.
Bec has been posting clips and images of Billie to her Stories more frequently in the past 12 months as her second-eldest child enters her tweenage years.
The model and influencer shares four children - Oscar, 13, Billie, 11, and twins Tom and Darcy, eight - with retired footy great Chris Judd.
In March, the Melbourne-based rich lister booked a $5,000 private suite at Rod Laver Arena Billie could watch Billie Eilish in style on her Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour.
Bec took to Instagram, where she documents her lavish lifestyle to 752,000 followers, to memorialise the big night out, first sharing a picture of the mum and daughter duo beaming for a mirror selfie.
In the image, Bec looked every inch the teenager in a white layered crop-top and cut-out, light-wash jeans.
Meanwhile, Billie looked cute in an oversized pink hoodie and jeans.
'Billie's first concert - off to see Billie!' she captioned the clip.
A second picture showed Billie excitedly about to enter the exclusive suite at Rod Laver Arena, which was hosted by Bec's gymwear brand JAGGAD.
In a recent fan Q&A, Bec characterised her daughter as 'a weapon at everything'.
Describing her children's personalities, she added: 'Oscar: kind, responsible, smart, diligent.
'Darcy: Super cruisy, funny and creative. Tom: Elon Musk.'
One fan asked the mum-of-four how she juggles running her full-to-the-brim household.
'With anxiety and mum guilt,' the fashion designer confessed.
'I travel a bit for work but I'm always on, even when I'm away. Ordering lunches, responding to school emails, ordering groceries, organising pick ups/drop offs, coordinating training, booking trades/ repairs for home, buying birthday gifts, dealing with kid dramas etc,' she said.
'All the normal mum things but on the other side of the world.'
Bec has also included Billie in advertisements for her other brand collaborations such as Mermade Hair styling tools.
Billie was just three-years-old when Bec confessed that she felt her daughter was beginning to develop a poor sense of body image in relation to her famous mother.
The TV presenter said during her radio show - KIIS network's The 3PM Pick Up in 2017 - that Billie 'screams at the mirror' because she hates her hair.
'Billie all of a sudden has started caring about her appearance so much. It's actually scary, and I don't know where it's come from,' she said at the time.
'She's got this brush, and she stands in front of the mirror and brushes and brushes her hair.
'She's got this curly hair. She brushes it and it springs back up. And she screams at the mirror, she's like, "arrrrgh!" She's just furious.'
She went on to say that her daughter complained, 'Mummy, I don't like my hair. I want straight hair like you,' to which Bec replied to her toddler, 'Babe when I go to work I tong my hair so I've got curly hair like you.'
The solution Bec and Chris decided upon was to steer her daughter's emphasis away from her own looks and onto other attributes, the TV personality said.
She concluded: 'It made Chris and I think we have to put so much emphasis on being a kind human, and being strong, and being smart.'

Swimmers' annual nude plunge into chilly Tasmanian river marks the winter solstice – and Dark Mofo's revival

Swimmers have stripped off and raced into chilly waters on the shortest day of the year. Wearing nothing but red swim caps, 3,000 courageous souls took the annual nude sunrise plunge into Hobart's River Derwent to mark the winter solstice. The air temperature was about 10C as the naked pack took to the water at 7.40am on Saturday, sparking shrieks and yells of anguish. Liz Cannard, who has been travelling around Tasmania for nearly four months with her husband, said she was petrified before taking the dip. 'I'm not a strong swimmer and I don't take my gear off for anybody ... so I've ticked off a couple of things today,' the Geelong resident said. Lizzy Nash from Sydney was also in the mood for a bit of carpe diem. 'It's about seizing the moment, seizing life and being inspired,' she said. 'This is the sort of thing that motivates you to want to do more and challenge yourself. It was awe-inspiring and I absolutely loved it.' The free swim is part of the Dark Mofo festival and started with just a few hundred participants in 2013. Melburnian Belinda Chambers said she had been watching people do it on television for years and decided to work remotely from Tasmania for the festival so she could stay and leave on a high. 'So exhilarating,' she said. 'I was nervous, but there was this almost primal moment of everyone being together that carries you along, and a sense of pure happiness.'

The festival's artistic director, Chris Twite, said the swim was a tremendous way to bring things to a close. 'The response in 2025 has been incredible,' he said. 'The streets of Hobart have come alive with locals and visitors celebrating winter and Dark Mofo again.' More than 103,000 tickets were sold to Dark Mofo events in 2025, generating $4.6m. The festival has made a name for itself by courting controversy and in 2018 drew the ire of some by installing inverted Christian crosses along Hobart's waterfront.

Nicole Kidman's niece Lucia Hawley posts sweet birthday tribute to partner Henry Poole: 'My favourite boy'

Lucia Hawley has shared a sweet tribute to her long-term boyfriend, Henry Poole. Lucia, 27, and Henry, who have been dating for four years, generally keep their romance relatively private. But the niece of Nicole Kidman took to Instagram on Friday to share a series of photos celebrating her beau. The first showed the couple huddling close and beaming broadly as Henry held a glass of red wine. Lucia showed off her svelte form in a pink off-the shoulder dress, while Henry wore a blue shirt tucked into a pair of beige chinos. The pair looked every inch the loved-up couple as the posed under an archway on a manicured lawn. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'Happy birthday to my favourite boy @henrypoole,' Lucia captioned the romantic photo. A second photo showed the couple, backs to camera, walking along a rain slick road with their arms around each other. It appears that the couple were not able to celebrate Henry's birthday together, with Lucia captioning that image: 'Miss u extra today.' A third photo showed the pair enjoying a chat via Facetime. Henry could be seen taking time out from a dip in the ocean to chat to his ladylove. Lucia, meanwhile looked over the moon to be chatting to her beau, captioning the photo: 'never a dull moment.' Lucia recently revealed Henry's reaction to her 'flirty' interview with Elvis star Austin Butler. The 7Bravo reporter became very flustered while interviewing the Hollywood star, 32, at the State Theatre during the Sydney Film Festival in June last year. The interview quickly went viral causing Lucia to share her longtime boyfriend Henry's reaction to the exchange. Taking to her Instagram Stories, she joked that Henry was 'not happy' as she shared a screenshot of the comment he left underneath footage of the friendly interview. Henry hilariously penned: 'Eyes where I can see em @austinbutler,' as he poked fun at the 'flirty' chat. Reposting his comment, Lucia quipped of Henry's response: '@henrypoole_ has weighed in guys... (he's not happy).' Lucia has been dating Henry for more than three years but only spoke publicly about their relationship for the first time last year, sharing their plans to move in together in 2024. Lucia, who has followed her mother Antonia Kidman's footsteps into the world of media, revealed, last month that she's hoping to find work in London. 'I am chasing the artistic pursuit of writing. I have been keeping a journal since I was 10-years-old. I think it's pretty competitive in London in the media space, but I'm going for the experience' she told the Daily Telegraph. 'So hopefully I'll land a job in media over there either writing or in broadcast. 'I've started like cold emailing editors and a few of them have actually responded which is awesome.' Lucia said she is excited to be 'a little closer to my aunty and cousins' which she called 'a real comfort.' Her aunt Nicole, who is based in Nashville, will now be a much shorter flight away than she was when Lucia was based in Australia. Lucia started her TV career after studying Arts at the elite University of Sydney. Following her degree and internship at Vogue Australia, she started working at a production company as an assistant and later applied for a job at 9Honey — Channel Nine's women's network. She eventually landed a role with NBC Universal, who launched 7Bravo in 2022, a role she left last year.

AFL fans react to Geelong's t-shirt stunt ahead of Patrick Dangerfield's 350th career game - as Brisbane Lions flex their premiership muscles

Geelong's bold decision to fill GMHBA Stadium with a sea of white t-shirts ahead of their clash with Brisbane on Friday night backfired after the Lions cruised to a 41-point victory. The away side didn't read the script, kicking four early goals to assume control in what was a statement performance. The triumph also ended the club's long losing run in Geelong. Promoted pre-game as 'a sight to behold' and a 'slice of history' on the Geelong website, the Cats decked out every seat at the venue with white t-shirts. It is a move often seen in US sports, with the Indiana Pacers and OKC Thunder doing so in the NBA Finals. On a night when the club was also celebrating captain Patrick Dangerfield's milestone 350th AFL appearance, the commentators backed the concept. 'They have kitted out the Cattery with the white T-shirts on every seat, inspiration drawn from the NBA and college football in the US,' Gerard Whateley said on Fox Footy. 'It is quite the sight as the local heroes emerge onto the field. 'Patrick Dangerfield said one of his favourite parts of this would be (his children) Winnie, 'Flip' (Felicity) and George joining him to run through the banner. 'All the kids are fully aware of what they're part of, his place in Geelong folklore, which grows tonight, game (what is) a special night.' But numerous footy fans weren't on the same page, taking to X to question the move from the Cats. 'Lol white out is a roaring success so far,' one posted before halftime as Brisbane assumed control. 'I don't think the white out worked,' said another. 'White out turning into a whitewash,' a third weighed in with.
