Dame Jacinda Ardern is moving to Australia.<\/p>\n
The news comes after an Australia real estate website reported she had been house hunting for properties in Sydney’s northern beaches.<\/p>\n
According to RealEstate.com.au, the former Prime Minister of New Zealand and husband Clarke Gayford were seen looking at homes for sale in Curl Curl and Freshwater.<\/p>\n
The website puts the median price for homes in Curl Curl at $A4.1 million ($NZ4.8m) with a growth of 6% in the last 12 months.<\/p>\n
In Freshwater, RealEstate.com.au said the median price was $A3.9m.<\/p>\n
In a statement, a spokesman for Ardern said her family had been travelling “for a few years now”.<\/p>\n
“For the moment they’re basing themselves out of Australia – they have work there, and it brings the added bonus of more time back home in New Zealand.”<\/p>\n
Ardern, Gayford and 7-year-old daughter, Neve Gayford, had been living in the United States where Ardern was working for\u00a0Harvard University.<\/p>\n
She is also a trustee of Prince William’s Earthshot Prize.<\/p>\n
In March last year, Ardern joined\u00a0Oxford University’s Blavatnik School of Government as a Distinguished Fellow\u00a0and member of the world leaders circle.<\/p>\n
Ardern also recent released a\u00a0memoir,\u00a0A Different Kind of Power, and a\u00a0children’s book,\u00a0Mum’s Busy Work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dame Jacinda Ardern is moving to Australia.
