Bec Judd makes shock admission about her VERY humble upbringing: 'We never had a new school uniform'

Rebecca Judd has provided a rare insight into her upbringing, revealing she was raised in humble surroundings which taught her to appreciate everything she has.

The 43-year-old influencer and fashion designer, who has developed a reputation for her upmarket taste, made the surprising admission on the latest episode of her Vain-ish podcast.

'We're not silver spooners. We never had a new school uniform, they were always hand-me-downs from friends' older siblings,' Bec admitted.

She added that she came to envy some of her classmates, as she was in awe of what they could afford.

'Kids who paid for their school excursions, with the slip and the money in it, on time – rich! We never paid on time because we never had any spare money,' Bec said.

'Whenever we'd get the form, I'd get anxiety, going, "Where are we going to find $5 for this animal incursion coming to school?"'

She added that fights sometimes broke out between her and her classmates, who would mercilessly tease her for wearing second-hand uniforms.

Fortunately, Bec successfully overcame her difficult upbringing, as she admitted she was working hard to ensure her own children were not spoiled.

'They are privileged, they go to amazing schools, so it's hard to get them to get a sense of how lucky they are, the way they live,' she said.

'What I have figured out is that kids don't give a s**t. They remember the memories and the fun times they had in that house, not what the furniture looked like. They just want to have fun.' 

Bec and her older sister Kate were raised in Perth, Western Australia by their working class parents Hugh and Kerry. 

It comes after Bec revealed the very surprising budget-friendly secret behind her lucrative social media success.

She shared a post to social media revealing she credits much of her success to a $96 smartphone tripod, which helps her capture the perfect photos.

'This is the most excellent of phone tripods I bought this year from Instagram. Best one I've ever used,' she wrote alongside a photo of the Horizum On The Go tripod. 

In October, Bec made a bombshell admission about her very glamorous social media presence.

The AFL WAG recently confessed the glammed-up photos she frequently shares online are not always an accurate reflection of her daily life.

'Social media is a highlight reel. I don't dress up for fun. The spray tans, the whitening, the lashes... everything!' Bec told the Life With Danni Duncan podcast.

'It makes me look good, but would I do that every day? Hell no!'

Bec said the dolled–up posts she often shares to her Instagram page capture her at her best, and fans should look at her 24-Hour Stories reel for a more accurate idea of what her daily routine was like.

The model and influencer shares four children – Oscar, 14, Billie, 11, and twins Tom and Darcy, nine – with retired footy great Chris, 42. 

The Judds met at a pub in Perth when they were both teenagers, and wed on December 31, 2010, at Melbourne's Albert Park.
