Bec Judd's 'Pavlova Baby' Joke & £76 Tripod Secret Behind Her Social Media Success
Bec Judd's holiday fun and her budget social media secret

Influencer and television presenter Rebecca Judd has shared a humorous glimpse into her summer holiday, joking about a food-induced 'baby bump' after a lavish getaway with loved ones.

Family Fun and a 'Pavlova Baby' on the Mornington Peninsula

The 42-year-old posted a series of sun-drenched snaps from a retreat in regional Victoria on Wednesday, showcasing a fun-filled escape with her family and close friend Emma Lowe. One playful image featured Judd pointing to her stomach, which she laughingly attributed to holiday indulgence, captioning it 'Pavlova baby' for her young son.

Another photo saw her flaunting her slender figure in a chic polka-dotted With Harper Lu gown, posing elegantly on a pier against the stunning backdrop of the Mornington Peninsula. The gallery also featured her husband, retired AFL star Chris Judd, 42, showing off his muscular physique in a shirtless pose alongside friend Tim Lowe.

'The perfect summer day. Thanks for having us Emma and Tim,' Bec expressed gratefully alongside the images, clearly relishing the peaceful family time.

The Surprising Budget Gadget Behind the Glamour

In a separate but revealing post, Judd recently disclosed the surprisingly affordable secret behind her lucrative and highly polished social media presence. On New Year's Eve, she credited much of her photographic success to a smartphone tripod costing just £76 (approximately $96 AUD).

'This is the most excellent of phone tripods I bought this year from an Instagram ad,' she wrote, praising the Horizum's On The Go tripod. 'Best one I've ever used.' She was quick to clarify this was not a sponsored promotion, but a genuine recommendation from a fan of the product.

'Link below – not sponsored. All my sponsored stuff is only stuff I love, as you already know,' she assured her followers, sharing glammed-up photos of herself in black activewear as an example of the device's effectiveness.

Candid Confessions on Curated Online Life

This insight into the mechanics of her social media feed follows a candid admission Judd made in October. Speaking on the Life With Danni Duncan podcast, she confessed that her frequently glamorous online posts are a curated highlight reel, not a reflection of daily life.

'Social media is a highlight reel. I don't dress up for fun. The spray tans, the whitening, the lashes... everything!' she stated. 'It makes me look good, but would I do that every day? Hell no!'

She advised fans to look at her more casual 24-hour Stories for a realistic view of her routine with her four children: Oscar, 14, Billie, 11, and nine-year-old twins Tom and Darcy. Judd and her husband Chris, whom she met as a teenager in a Perth pub and married on December 31, 2010, continue to balance family life with her successful career as a model and influencer.
