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).

LARA WORTHINGTON ON BIRTH: "KNOWING YOU HAVE TO GIVE BIRTH AND THERE IS NO OTHER WAY YOU CAN GO IS SCARY"

Lara Worthington has spoken about her fear of childbirth, with the arrival of her second baby, reportedly another boy, a few weeks away.

“Knowing you have to give birth and there is no other way you can go is scary. There’s no going back, you have to go forward. Now I know more than last time. And for someone who doesn’t have kids, you can’t explain it,” she said.

The usually media shy blonde was speaking to blog Tomboy Beauty, which will publish the interview in full on Monday.

Worthington also prefers to describe herself as a “mum, a CEO and a businesswoman” rather than model.
“I don’t do much modelling anymore. I feel like I’ve grown up and changed the direction,” she said.

And part of that new direction is revealing far less about her life. Once happy to court publicity, Worthington said she is now far more choosy about what she posts online.

“(Social media) is not in our house, so it became less and less of a want for me, and (less of) a need to see other people’s lives, rather than just live my own,” she said.

“There’s no mystery anymore and I think that’s what people miss.”

IT'S ANOTHER BOY FOR LARA WORTHINGTON AND SAM

Baby number two is reportedly blue for Lara and Sam Worthington.

As the blonde beauty puts her feet up on a babymoon island getaway before the birth of her second child, reports are suggesting the Aussie model is expecting a brother for son Rocket Zot, 18-months.

According to WHO Magazine, friends of the star, 29, say the couple are expecting a boy in just a few weeks.

“Lara was telling some friends from early on that she’s having a boy,” the publication quoted. “She was quite open, saying how happy she is.”

No doubt having two babies under the age of two will be a handful, but thankfully Lara’s mum Sharon will be at the ready.

“Her mum is very hands-on helping out. She’s a big part of their family and has been very involved with Rocket whenever she can be,” the source told WHO.

And with the impending arrival not far away, the stunner is spending a few moments putting her feet up on a relaxing island babymoon.

“Back to sea,” she posted with the hashtag “island life” alongside a makeup-free selfie. With her gorgeous blonde locks running wild and free, it appears The Base entrepreneur is well and truly in vacation mode. Another snap showed a movie screen nestled into palm trees on the beach.

Just a few days ago she also shared an adorable picture of her and Rocket’s shadow with the caption “three and a half”.

Lara, who relocated to the US in 2014 after marrying her actor hubby, announced the couple were expecting a sibling for Rocket in June.

“I’m sure it might seem full-on at the beginning for me, and it’s probably a lot harder than it is now, but when they get older they can share their life together,” she told InStyle Magazine.
