The rather lovely daughter of Rolling Stones band member, Ronnie Wood and his wife Jo, singer and model Leah recently left good old Blighty for an exciting new life down under. We caught up with her to hear all about the big move, and to chat about make-up, motherhood and important life lessons…

Why did you decide to move to Sydney?
Sydney was a quick and sporadic move, I’ve always wanted to live somewhere hot and Sydney was just there at the right time.

What are you enjoying most about living in Sydney?
I’m enjoying the outdoors, swimming in the sea and keeping fit and healthy.

Are any family or friends planning a trip out to visit?
Yes, both, family and friends are planning trips this Christmas and early next year, so I’m happy about that.

How long do you think you’ll stay in Sydney?
It’s hard to say how long just yet, but I think I will be over here for at least another few years.

How are you finding life as a mother?
Life as a mother is challenging, every day always doing something new and adventurous. It’s rewarding as well and I understand people who want to have more.
