Fresh from selling her Sydney abode for a staggering $24.5 million, former Miss Universe, Jennifer Hawkins, will make her TV return hosting — rather aptly — a show devoted to finding Australia’s dream homes.
Hawkins, who became a mum to daughter, Frankie Violet, in October last year, has signed to host Dream Homes Revealed, which will be produced by Abode Entertainment and screened on Channel 9. She has had a four-year hiatus from TV hosting, having last helmed Australia’s Next Top Model in 2016.
Dream Homes Revealed promises to showcase some of Australia’s most architecturally spectacular homes.
“Combining my love of television and Australian architecture, I’m looking forward to stepping back in front of the camera to showcase some of the most unique homes Australia has to offer,” Hawkins said.
Hawkins can certainly speak with authority about desirable homes. She and her husband Jake Wall built the property at Newport on Sydney’s northern beaches which cracked the $24 million mark and she has a long held interest in real estate.
Abode Entertainment’s Gary Takle said he was thrilled to be working with Hawkins.
“She is a style icon in the fashion world, and has proven her success in the world of architecture and interiors too,” Takle said.
“She has the perfect eye for design. Working with Jennifer will enable us to show smart, innovative and luxurious homes for all of Australia’s budgets.”
Dream Homes Revealed will start filming in November and will be aired on 9 in February 2021.
