Elle MacphersonElle Macpherson is reportedly abandoning the UK in favour of returning to her native Australia.

The supermodel has been based in London for nearly a decade and has lived with sons Flynn, nine and Aurelius Cy, four in an £8million home in Notting Hill for the last two years - but is now said to have put the property on the market.

A source told the Daily Mail: “Elle has had enough of living in London. She just finds it too busy. She has decided she wants to move back to Australia for a more simple life.”

The source added that Elle has completely renovated the house since moving in, including adding a swimming pool and gym as well as custom furniture: “The wardrobes were specially built to make room for her extra long jeans.

“The furniture also has special drawers to display her lingerie [from her Intimates range]. She has spent a fortune making the house bespoke, but has now decided to sell it.

“Estate agents have been round and auctioneers have been in to value all the furniture. It’s all happening.”
