Instead, she engages in various humanitarian missions alongside her modelling gigs, including visiting a refugee camp in Syria as part of the UNICEF leadership circle in 2019. Picture: Instagram/Jessica Kahawaty
She has also supported Indigenous education in outback Australia and worked towards securing clean water in Africa. Picture: Instagram/Jessica Kahawaty
For the past few years, she has primarily lived in Dubai, with frequent trips to Paris, New York, and Milan for red-carpet appearances and shoots for fashion magazines and brands such as Dior, Louis Vuitton, and Celine. Picture: Instagram/Jessica Kahawaty
And while she is extremely well-known overseas, the beauty, who speaks fluent Arabic, remains somewhat of an enigma down under. Picture: Instagram/Jessica Kahawaty
But that could soon change. Perhaps her latest post suggests she might be spending more time back in her hometown? Picture: Instagram/Jessica Kahawaty
