Macpherson leaving London for Australia

Elle Macpherson is moving back to Australia after ten years in London.

The actress and supermodel is reported to be relocating to Sydney after putting her Notting Hill estate on the market.

She spent Christmas on the beach in her native country with sons Flynn, nine, and Aurelius Cy, four, and now wants to escape city life for good, reports The Mail on Sunday.

Macpherson runs her lingerie business Intimates from her current property, which is worth an estimated £8 million. She bought the seven-storey home following her split with partner Arpad "Arki" Busson in 2005.

A source said: "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.

"Estate agents have been round and auctioneers have been in to value all the furniture - it's all happening."
