Sophie Cachia and Madison Prespakis' bold property move
Melbourne entrepreneur, author and influencer Sophie Cachia has listed her fully renovated Tullamarine home as she prepares to buy with AFLW star Madison Prespakis. Cachia, who has a combined social media following of more than 300,000 across Instagram and TikTok, is known for her bold personal style, parenting content and outspoken takes on relationships and identity. Her partner, Madison Prespakis, is a midfielder for Essendon in the AFLW and a former Carlton star who won the league's Best and Fairest in 2020 aged 19. RELATED: Landmark 139yo Melbourne church could fetch $5.5m Luxury home smashes Plenty record 'Small' Melbourne house scores $5m deal Ms Cachia, who co-parents three children, said the home had been the perfect base during a period of growth in both her personal and professional life — but the time was right to move on. 'Maddy and I will definitely be buying together, it's not about proving anything to anyone else, we're just really aligned in what we want,' she said. 'Whether it's near family or by the beach, as long as we're together, that's all that really matters.' Her four-bedroom home, which features a monochrome palette, premium appliances and a designer double ensuite, was purchased in 2021 and completely overhauled under Cachia's direction and has $900,000-$990,000 price hopes. Perth-based interior stylist and director of 13 Interiors Kelly Donougher, helped Ms Cachia design the home with a black-and-white aesthetic. 'I wasn't even really looking to buy, I just went to the open home, saw the potential, and completely fell in love with it,' Ms Cachia said. 'I literally rang Kelly while I was standing inside and said, 'If I buy this, will you help me style it? 'We were so aligned from the get-go. 'That strong monochrome look, I've always loved it. I knew exactly what I wanted this home to feel like.' The centrepiece of the renovation is the oversized ensuite in the main bedroom, complete with double vanities, a double shower, and a custom step built with young children in mind. 'I'm someone who doesn't really use the bedroom for anything other than sleep, so I wanted the ensuite to be the wow factor,' Ms Cachia said. 'That whole front section of the house became a sanctuary. I'll miss it so much.' Other highlights include two living areas, a walk-in dressing room, integrated appliances, secure gated entry and a low-maintenance backyard with a private pool. Matthews Real Estate director John Matthews said the home was one of the suburb's most stylish offerings, with interest already building among buyers who will recognise the value of a finished renovation. 'You walk in and it just hits you — it's chic,' Mr Matthews said. 'It's not the kind of renovation you see in Tullamarine every day. Replicating this would cost well above the current guide.' The four-bedroom residence is scheduled to go under the hammer on August 23. Sign up to the Herald Sun Weekly Real Estate Update.

‘Not a long-term strategy': Meghan Markle's As Ever company slammed by industry experts in scathing review
The jaw-dropping extent of Meghan Markle's business woes have been laid bare after an industry expert gave a withering verdict of the ex-working royal's fledging lifestyle brand. The Duchess of Sussex has spent the last two years working on a lifestyle brand and has earmarked plans to sell a range of products include homewares, cooking utensils, make-up and even pet food. Markle originally called the venture American Riviera Orchard and soft launched a line of strawberry jams before scrapping the ARO moniker and re-launching as 'As Ever' in February. The former working royal has since sold limited runs of a variety of conserves as well as a line of wines through the As Ever website. Industry insider Phillip Millar and Californian marketing executive Camille Moore, who have advised top brands such as Dior and Mercedes-Benz, recently examined Markle's business acumen to date. 'I feel like she's doing such a brutal or good job, depending on how you're looking at it, of getting this like free PR and then absolutely s****** the bed,' Ms Moore said while speaking on The Art of the Brand podcast. Mr Millar agreed, suggesting As Ever was merely a way of 'maximising the value from her fame that came from Suits and being a part of the Royal Family'. "They're just milking that for everything they can,' he said. 'You can make short-term money from it, but it's not a long-term strategy.' The experts also took aim at Markle's boasts about 'selling out' her jams and wines on her website without disclosing how many units she produced. 'Confectionery scarcity doesn't matter,' Mr Millar said. The harsh feedback comes after Markle reportedly drew the ire of Buckingham Palace after posting a note reading "With the Compliments of HRH The Duchess of Sussex" to promote her brand on social media. The move appeared to directly contravene the Sussexes' commitment not to use the HRH in commercial or public settings after stepping back as working royals in 2020.
