Jennifer Hawkins makes Instagram comeback with heartwarming family snow trip
Jennifer Hawkins has delighted her followers with a much-anticipated return to social media, sharing glimpses of a snowy family holiday after a four-month break from Instagram.
The 41-year-old beauty queen, who was crowned Miss Universe in 2004, posted a carousel of photos on Monday, documenting a winter getaway with her husband Jake Wall and their two children, Frankie, 5, and Hendrix, 3.
The family appeared to be enjoying their time at Thredbo, a popular ski resort in the Snowy Mountains of New South Wales. In the heartwarming series, Hawkins could be seen helping her children on the slopes, embodying the image of a doting mother.
Despite her gentle guidance, it seemed Frankie and Hendrix were already fast learners, impressing fans with their natural skiing skills.
Jake Wall, Hawkins’ husband and longtime partner, also looked to be making the most of the family vacation. One candid photo showed him smiling ear to ear while holding little Hendrix’s hand as they made their way down the snowy hill.
Hawkins, who has kept a relatively low profile on social media this year, captioned the post with warmth and humor: “Our first snow trip! Honestly one of the best experiences – skiing next to our fave little people. Can’t wait to go back! (but definitely won’t miss ‘itchy’ kids thermals).”
The Instagram update sparked an outpouring of reactions from fans and friends alike. Many expressed joy at seeing the model-turned-television personality back online, while others focused on her children’s impressive skiing skills. “Looks like an amazing family trip,” one follower wrote, while another added: “How good are these kids at skiing!”
For Hawkins’ nearly 1 million Instagram followers, the post was a welcome return. Her previous update had come in May, when she shared photos from a family beach holiday. Before that, she had last posted in January, leading fans to note her quieter presence on the platform this year.
Since winning the Miss Universe title, Hawkins has built a successful career as a model, businesswoman, and television presenter. But in recent years, she has prioritized family life, frequently sharing glimpses of her time with Jake and their two children.
