Lara Worthington reunites with her brother Joshua Bingle and his pregnant partner in rare public outing six years after he was convicted of drug possession

1 week ago 6

Family Christmas celebrations have begun early for Lara Worthington.

The 37-year-old Australian model reunited with her brother, Joshua Bingle, this week, and the two enjoyed a day at the beach in Sydney with their children. 

While Lara's husband, Sam, did not appear to be present, the brother-sister duo was also joined by Josh's pregnant partner Paige.

The trio looked relaxed and happy to be in each other's company as they sat perched atop some beachside rocks.

Meanwhile, the children, including Lara's three kids — Racer, eight, Rocket, nine, and River, four — played in the surf while their doting mum watched over them. 

The blonde beauty went fresh-faced for her beach outing and cut quite the casual figure in a black tank top.

Lara wore a sleeveless top adorned with lacework at the décolletage, accentuating her toned arms and hugging her lithe frame.

She paired it with loose-fitting grey pinstriped pants that flowed gracefully down her trim legs. 

Completing her look, Lara chose black ASICS trainers over black socks and added a pair of dark sunglasses.

Meanwhile, Joshua looked much more 'beach ready.' He appeared shirtless as he relaxed on the rocks with his famous sister. 

He sported multi-coloured floral board shorts and a black baseball cap with the words 'Black Sheep' emblazoned across the front. 

Joshua also carried his beach essentials in a black bum bag, worn over his shoulder.

It seemed he might have overlooked the 'slip, slip, slap' sun protection advice, as his skin had taken on a noticeable sunburnt hue.

Joshua's partner proudly showcased her growing baby bump in a black bikini top and mismatched white bottoms.

The brunette wore her hair pulled back and completed her summery look with a pair of dark cat-eye sunglasses. 

At one point during the beach outing, Lara seemed to be engaged in a deep conversation with Joshua's partner, possibly offering some parenting advice to the expectant mother.

This was a rare public appearance of the pair together, as Joshua tends to lead a much more low-key life compared to his famous sister.

Loyal fans of Lara may remember Joshua from her short-lived 2012 Channel Ten series, Being Lara Binge.

Lara's family beach outing comes after her husband Sam Worthington had an awkward exchange with a journalist over his wife's surname.

Sam's night out with his wife Lara at the 2024 GQ Men of the Year Awards got off to a bumpy start when a red carpet interview with the couple went horribly wrong on live TV.

Channel Seven reporter Sally Bowery introduced Sam's 37-year-old wife to viewers of the Sydney event by her maiden name Lara Bingle - and it went down like a lead balloon.

'Her name is Lara Worthington,' the 48-year-old Avatar star clapped back.

'It's only been ten years,' a clearly irritated Sam quickly added.

Bowery quickly apologised for he faux pas: 'That was my slip.'

Later on in the evening, the Avatar star was crowned GQ's Man of the Year. 

Joshua, meanwhile, made headlines when he was charged with drug possession in February 2018, after being caught with cocaine in Sydney on January 21, 2018.

The tradesman pleaded guilty to cocaine possession at Downing Centre Local Court after he was busted with the drug at a Kings Cross nightclub.

According to court documents, officers searched Joshua and found a 0.6 gram bag of cocaine in his left pock when a sniffer dog 'made an indication' while Joshua was seen leaving the Darlo Country Club.

He pleaded guilty to the possession charge, with his lawyer arguing it was out of character and that he was affected by the pressure of supporting his famous model sister after their father Graham died of cancer in 2008.

Joshua was convicted and fined $300. 

It was not the first time that Joshua has had a run-in with the law.

In 2012, he was fined $800 and placed on an 18-month good behaviour bond after admitting to punching a man at Randwick Racecourse in 2009.

In an unrelated incident in 2004, he was fined $800 after being convicted of stealing from a dwelling or house.
