The daughter of Australian pop sensation Nikki Webster, Skylah, is stepping into the spotlight herself at just 14 years old. The teenager has landed her first significant acting role, appearing in the iconic Australian soap opera, Home and Away.
Proud mother Nikki, famed for her unforgettable performance at the Sydney 2000 Olympics, took to social media to share her excitement. She posted a series of behind-the-scenes photos of Skylah on set, capturing the young actress in her costume and getting her makeup done in the dressing room.
