Justin Hemmes appears in high spirits as he returns to his Sydney mansion while his pregnant partner Madeline Holtznagel hits her due date
The billionaire pub baron, 52, touched down at his $100 million Vaucluse mansion via sea plane, with his heavily pregnant, long-term girlfriend, 28, nowhere in sight.
With her due date imminent, Madeline hasn't been seen since the end of May, and has even manged to stay off social media - further adding to the baby speculation.
Justin appeared to be in high spirits as he returned to his Sydney home this week, wearing a crisp white T-shirt and khaki slacks.
He was forced to pull his trouser legs up as he waded through the water to get to his lavish house, which sits on the harbour.

With his reading glasses and Bluetooth headphones in, the House of Merivale heir slicked his tresses back into a bun as he carried a large black bag.
Meanwhile, his entourage were all smiles as they waited for the soon-to-be father-of-three to arrive.
It comes after Madeline and Justin were spotted returning to the mansion at the end of May, with the model looking just days away from giving birth.
Not wanting his heavily pregnant girlfriend to endanger herself and her precious cargo, Justin affectionately piggybacked his ladylove off his sea plane.
The couple beamed broadly as Justin dutifully escorted Madeline to the shore, with Madeline wrapping her arms tightly around her beau's shoulders.
The new mum recently admitted to Stellar she is thrilled to welcome a son because she wanted a 'new journey' with Justin, who already shares two daughters with ex-partner Kate Fowler.
'I always thought I was going to have a boy. I knew I was going to be a boy mum,' she said.
'Justin has two beautiful little girls, so having a boy, it's like a whole new journey together. [The baby] is going to be his little best mate.'

She said up until now she kept details of her pregnancy private, but was ready to share her journey.
'I keep a lot of my life private and I don't share a lot online anyway, so [being pregnant] wasn't really something that I was going to share online,' she said.
'I haven't posted about it and it's been nice to have some quiet time off Instagram.
'But obviously because I am in the public eye and we do get photographed quite a lot, I think now I'm at this point in my pregnancy where it's nice for me to be able to share some nice photos'.
Madeline also revealed she has sought advice from her older sisters Anna and fellow model Simone, who both have children.
In November, an insider confirmed the exciting news of Madeline's pregnancy to Daily Mail Australia and revealed a friend of Justin's recently moved out of his Vaucluse mansion to make room for their growing family.
Justin, who has a net worth of $1.39 billion, already has daughters Alexa and Saachi with his model ex-girlfriend Kate, from whom he separated in 2018.
The business mogul then began dating Madeline the following year, when the model was 22 and he was 47.

Double delight for Matildas fans as two of the team's stars drop huge news about their love lives
Matildas fans are cheering this week after the heartwarming news that both Clare Wheeler and Alex Chidiac have experienced happy milestones with the loves of their lives. Wheeler, who plays for Everton in the UK, announced her engagement to partner Jeremy with an Instagram post on Monday. Sharing a photo of herself showing off a sparkling ring alongside Jeremy on an Italian beach, Wheeler captioned the photo with six digits: '17.07.25'. The news sparked a wave of Australian teammates rushing to congratulate the newly engaged couple. Mary Fowler posted: 'Yayyy congrats you cuties.' Hayley Raso wrote: 'No way, this is sooooo beautiful. Congrats you two.' Teagan Micah posted: 'Screaming! So happy for you both.' Meanwhile, Melbourne Victory star Chidiac tied the knot with her long-term partner Erin. The A-League star posted a series of photos from the ceremony at the Sun Theatre in Melbourne's inner-west, which left her Matildas teammates overjoyed. 'Congratulations you two! Looked amazing,' posted Courtney Vine. 'Love it Chids, so happy for you both,' wrote Emily Gielnik. The dual celebrations come at an interesting time for the Matildas after some mixed results so far in 2025. However, new coach Joe Montemurro is confident the team will be ready for the 2026 Asian Cup. 'I've had less time to prepare teams for big tournaments,' Montemurro said earlier in the month. Chidiac, who plays for Melbourne Victory, also received many well wishes from teammates 'The good thing about it, we're going to have a lot of players who are in season [for the next window], so they're going to be at least physically - and from a rhythm perspective - in tune. 'That was the biggest thing over the last 20 days - you saw the players, the rhythms were up, down, everywhere. 'All of them had to be managed physically. 'We won't have that problem [next time]. So at least we can go forward with players that are ready to go.'
