LARA WORTHINGTON SHOWS OFF $200K EARLY CHRISTMAS GIFT

Lara Worthington has shown off her brand new $200,000 luxury black Porsche gifted to her as a Christmas present from her star hubby Sam Worthington, months after claiming, “we’re not rich” during a radio segment.

The 30-year-old bragged about her new wheels with the caption “Sa(m)nta came early” suggesting the lavish present was from Sam.

During the Instagram Story, her eldest son Rocket was filmed inside the boot of the car.

“Rocket looking for the booster seat,” she jokingly wrote.

Another caption said: “Turbo charged, I did ask for a Prius.”

The mega cash splash comes after Lara was shut down on the Kyle and Jackie O Show in May during a Secret Sound competition, which came with a $50,000 prize money.

When she was told she would not be handed the money if she guessed the sound correctly, Lara snapped saying: “We’re not rich,” before shock jock Kyle Sandilands called “bull sh*t.”

“I don’t think that’s true,” he added.

“We’re not rich, we’ve just got the biggest movie franchise in the world and our own make-up company,” Sandilands added.

Sam was the star of 2009’s Avatar, which remains the highest-grossing film of all time with box office takings of $US 2.7 billion. He has signed on for future sequels in the franchise, and has starred in box office hits including Clash of the Titans and Hacksaw Ridge. In 2014 he made the BRW Young Rich List with an estimated fortune of $22 million.

Lara herself has a personal fortune estimated to be in the millions, thanks to her lucrative modelling gigs and sponsorship and endorsement deals.

LARA WORTHINGTON'S INSANE BIRTHDAY PRESENT FROM HUSBAND SAM

WHEN your husband is a Hollywood movie star and you’re living a life of luxury in New York, how else do you celebrate your 30th birthday than flying to four concerts in four cities in four days.

That’s exactly how Lara Worthington saw in her fourth decade last month after husband Sam, 40, arranged for a surprise around-the-world trip for his glamorous wife, leaving their two children with Worthington’s mum Sharon for the week.

The rare tell-all about the romantic getaway flies in the face of recent split rumours that have dogged the couple in recent months.

The interview emerged just days after the pair put up a united front on the red carpet for the world premiere of Sam’s new film Manhunt: Unabomber in New York.

In the interview with Elle Australia, Worthington spilt details on her intensely private husband’s grand gesture, giving a rare insight into the reclusive Aussie actor’s romantic ways.

“I spent my recent 30th birthday at the Blue Lagoon in Iceland," Worthington told the mag. ”I’ve wanted to do the spa experience there for a long time so it was super sweet of him.”

The couple then took off for a whirlwind concert jaunt around the world, no doubt flying via private jet.

“We flew to Ireland and saw Radiohead,” she added, “to Brussels the next morning for Coldplay, and then to London where he took me to Royal Ascot — because he knows I like getting dressed up — and Ed Sheeran that night.

“The last concert was U2 in Toronto. At the end of each day I would get a T-shirt revealing the band I was seeing the next night. It was crazy but so much fun. It took him six months to organise.”

Sandilands called “bulls**t” on the remark, adding sarcastically, “We’re not rich, we’ve just got the biggest movie franchise in the world and our own make-up company.”

Worthington also opened up in the magazine interview about why she doesn’t respond to media reports about her personal life anymore.

“Over the past few years I’ve realised that I find more comfort in keeping quiet.”

LARA WORTHINGTON COVERS ELLE AUSTRALIA

Lara Worthington has well and truly grown up.

The 30-year-old mum-of-two has shown off a chic new look on the latest cover of Elle Australia.

With her hair styled in a simple bob parted down the centre, the former model glowed as she posed in a white lace Christian Dior dress. The stunning photoshoot took place at the designer’s Château de la Colle Noire estate in France.

Worthington’s stylishly low-key look is a stark contrast to her younger days as a swimsuit model and wannabe reality star.
The now-private blonde attributed the change in her life to her husband — Australian actor Sam Worthington.

“Meeting Sam is when things really changed for me. Until then, I never really trusted anyone entirely,” she told the magazine.
“When I was younger, I think maybe I’d try to impress a person by adapting to their ways, but with Sam, from the get-go, I was just myself.
“I wasn’t trying to be anyone else and I think that’s the basis for a strong relationship.”

The pair share two sons — two-year-old Rocket Zot and nine-month-old Racer.

LARA WORTHINGTON AND SAM QUASH SPLIT RUMOURS

Lara and Sam Worthington have quashed rumours of a possible split after their loved-up appearance on the red carpet of Manhunt: Unabomber’s world premiere in New York.

The pair, who have young sons Rocket and Racer, posed with their arms firmly around each other for waiting camera crews.

Social media went into meltdown last month when Lara, 30, changed her surname name back to Bingle while staying in a hotel in Hong Kong.

Lara uploaded an Instagram story with a note on a gift from a hotel with the name “Ms Bingle” on the card.

“Dear Ms Bingle, so sorry I missed your departure but I do hope you’re settling well in our House! Please do let us know if you have any plans to come back. Safe travels,” the note read.

It was the second time Lara was caught-out by her followers for using her maiden name.

An entry pass for the Pandora — The World of Avatar exhibition at Disney World, Florida also said “Lara Bingle”.

But things appeared well in paradise with unshaven Sam, 41, lovingly gazing at Lara for the cameras.

The blonde model, who opted for a silver floral dress with black boots, clutched onto her husband’s arm for their night out without the kids.

LARA WORTHINGTON'S NEWEST SON RACER STEALS THE SPOTLIGHT

Lara Worthington has landed in Sydney dressed in a glamorous beige overcoat — but it was the model’s newest baby Racer, who stole the spotlight.

Racer is the second child for Lara and her husband Sam Worthington, who had their first child, Rocket Zot, in March 2015.

The five-month-old wore a blue onesie, grey socks and a knitted white beanie as he was cradled by his celebrity mother through the arrivals terminal this morning.

Lara, wearing an overcoat and jeans with a simple wedding band, showed off her son to waiting camera crews after a long flight with the tot.

The blonde travelled with Racer but Worthington and Rocket were not pictured with her at the airport.

Lara welcomed her second child in October last year and only revealed details of her second baby in Harper’s Bazaar magazine last month.

Based in New York, Lara made headlines after jumping to the defence of her first child Rocket Zot’s name — after speculation circulated among Australian media that it was actually fake.

“My son’s middle name IS a respectful nod to my late father, whose nickname was affectionately, Zot,” Bingle wrote on social media at the time.

LARA WORTHINGTON REVEALS SECOND SON'S NAME

It's been a long wait, but Lara Worthington has finally announced the name of her second baby — who was born five months ago.

Worthington and her actor husband Sam Worthington welcomed their second child in October last year — and until now, have kept everything under wraps.

But in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar magazine, the Australian model has kept with tradition — and given her second son quite an unusual name.

First we have Rocket, now we have Racer.

Racer is the second child for the celebrity couple, who had their first child, Rocket Zot, in March 2015.

Based in New York, Bingle-Worthington jumped to the defence of Rocket Zot’s name — after speculation circulated among Australian media that it was actually fake.

“My son’s middle name IS a respectful nod to my late father, whose nickname was affectionately, Zot,” Bingle wrote on social media one month after he was born.

Taking to Instagram to share the magazine’s cover, the entrepreneur and model is the founder and creative director of skincare brand, The Base by Lara Bingle.

LARA WORTHINGTON ON LIFE WITH TWO BOYS UNDER TWO

Lara Worthington (nee Bingle) was the hot ticket at the David Jones Autumn/Winter 2017 collections launch.

Arrivals began to filter through on the black carpet from 7pm on the forecourt of St Mary's Cathedral, Sydney, but it wasn't until almost an hour later when the church bells began to chime to mark the beginning of the show that Worthington arrived with celebrity agent, Annie Kelly.

"She's finally here," a hush went out amongst gathered media once the Cronulla local, who is married to Avatar actor Sam Worthington, 40, was spotted in a mint green Celine dress and orange fur Fendi heels.

The 29-year-old, who gave birth to her second son three months ago (his name has yet to be revealed), opened up to Fairfax Media about motherhood.

"It's amazing, two children under two definitely keeps us busy, but it's the most rewarding thing ever," she said.

Worthington flew home for just 72 hours and was spotted in meetings with Tiffany & Co, Dior, and her own line of tanning products.

"It's been a really successful trip from a business perspective... Australia is a really important market for The Base and we've got some really exciting things happening… so it's been great to be here to finalise it all," she added.

After the show she dined at Bar Machiavelli, Rushcutters Bay, with Kelly, Victoria's Secret model Bridget Malcolm, and Jesinta Franklin (nee Campbell).
