'We brought a property there around four years ago and it's only just settling now. So we're actually going to be moving up there.'
'Everything is happening this week. We're moving up there on Monday. I'm staying for a day and then I'll be coming back [to Sydney],' Anna added.
'We wanted a bit of a change. We don't know how long we'll be there. We're still going to keep our place here [in Sydney].
'So we will be back and forth a lot for work. We just thought it would be really nice to get away from Sydney winter for a little bit.
'My business partner lives up there too. I've never lived overseas. We've never done anything like this as a family, or even individually.'
The Mondrian residences are described as 'coastal luxury' with restaurants, bars and a pool club sitting on the ground floor on the shore of Burleigh Heads.
Spa and wellness treatments are also offered on site and all properties have a stunning view of Burleigh Beach.
As for her daughters, Anna said Elle is at an age where she is beginning to make friends so is 'a little bit sad' to be moving away from Sydney.
'I think [Elle's] a little bit sad going to the Gold Coast because she won't be able to see her friends,' she said.

'They're starting to get to that age where they're making good friends and they don't want to leave them.
'But I know she'll make a lot of good friends while on the Gold Coast... She's great at making friends.'
Anna added that Elle will officially be in primary school next year, which the influencer feels 'nervous' about but says she knows her daughter will 'thrive'.
As for Anna's husband Tim, 42, who she married in 2018, he will be handling the initial set-up of the move.
The blonde beauty will only get to spend one day on the Gold Coast after they move in before she has to fly back to Sydney for work.
She will be attending a Huggies activation event at Westfield Bondi Junction, which will start next Wednesday on June 11 from 9am.
Anna has been an ambassador for the nappy brand for four years, and is currently promoting the company's latest 'hero range' Huggies SkinProtect Nappies.
Huggies, in collaboration with Hello Skin, has produced 'cheeky' limited edition Bum Masks for parents and will celebrate with an immersive pop-up at Bondi Junction.
Anna and pediatric skincare expert Dr Deshan Sebaratnam will be in attendance at the four-day event as they invite parents along for the free experience.
Thousands of visitors can receive skincare tips from Dr Deshan, take part in fun family photo moments and enjoy free pastries and babycinos.
They will also be treated to take home samples of the new Huggies range and the limited edition Huggies Bum Mask.
'It's cheeky, pun intended,' Anna joked, adding the Bum Mask is a 'tongue-in-cheek' way of Huggies saying they'll 'look after parents' as well as their babies.
'I actually tried it,' she laughed, when asked if she had sampled the product which she describes is a 'face mask for your bottom'.
'Nobody was home. You have to lie on your stomach. You can either get someone to help or you can put it on yourself. It is quite relaxing,' she said.

Limitless: Chris Hemsworth on facing fears, ageing and return of Thor
Chris Hemsworth is best known as the hammer-wielding Norse god Thor in Marvel's cinematic universe. But now the Australian actor is trading superpowers for science, introspection and a new set of personal challenges, many of which are far scarier than battling fictional villains. The 41-year-old is back for a second season of Limitless which sees him confront some of his deepest fears as he explores how to live longer, healthier and better. "The first season almost killed me," Hemsworth tells the BBC. "And I thought, 'never again.'" In season one, Hemsworth tackled physical and mental challenges designed to delay aging including free diving, fasting, stress training and walking along a crane 900 feet above the actor says he chose to "torture" himself again as he had a burning curiosity to "ask bigger and deeper questions" about aging and the meaning of life."It was exhausting but also profoundly rewarding," he says. "But now I do have more questions rather than answers!"Season two takes a different path as Hemsworth continues to test himself, but not just physically. With the help of Ed Sheeran, he learns to play a musical instrument for the first time and inspired by his children's carefree risk-taking, he climbs a 600-foot Alpine dam. "Being thrust into unfamiliar environments where you're facing adversity or risk helps you understand how fragile life is and how quickly it can change," he says. Hemsworth, whose brothers, Liam and Luke, are also famous actors, says he now takes nothing for granted and has learnt to not "settle for the easy route as the greatest lessons come from the more challenging times". One of the biggest challenges for the actor was in the first season of the National Geographic series when a genetic test revealed he carries two copies of the gene ApoE4, one from his mother and one from his father, making him between eight and 10 times more likely to develop Alzheimer's than those without both copies of the gene."That warning sign was further motivation to take care of myself," Hemsworth explains. "It also felt like a great opportunity to offer up education and a better understanding for people navigating it as Alzheimer's is something a lot of people face." While Hemsworth has become increasingly interested in how to live better, he says there's a fine line between healthy aging and extreme biohacking. Biohackers want to make their bodies and brains function better by "hacking" their biology."You want to live a longer and better life but at what cost? You could have your exact routine but there's no point doing all of that if you're isolated and lonely at home," says Hemsworth."I'm going to put energy into health and wellness but I also want to enjoy life."This mindset puts him at odds with more extreme elements of the biohacking movement, which has gained attention through figures like tech entrepreneur Bryan Johnson. Johnson, 47, has spent millions of dollars in a bid to slow down aging - his regime, Project Blueprint, has seen him take numerous supplements a day, follow a strict diet and sleep routine and undergo a plasma an approach that Hemsworth finds intriguing but admits he has "no interest to explore". "I like dancing in and out of those spaces," Hemsworth explains. "Sometimes I try one thing, then another, and different pieces of science resonate at different times in your life. "If you're too boxed in with one way of thinking, you close the doors to other opportunities." As well as reversing his biological age, Johnson also wants to crack the code on how to live forever. But the Marvel star says no one has figured out how to cheat death yet and he doesn't think anyone will so "we have to embrace death". "Suffering comes from denial of our inevitability of death - we all have an expiration death." He adds: "If you were told you had 200 years guaranteed you'd become more complacent and reckless. The idea that life can be taken away at any second is a beautiful reminder to appreciate every moment." He also explains that if humans could live forever then relationships with other people wouldn't be as important, and for Hemsworth, family appears to really Thor actor lives in Byron Bay with his wife, actress Elsa Pataky, and their three children. Limitless touches on how his choices affect not just his own life, but those around of what spurred him on to film a second series was "the great feedback from young kids, parents and grandparents" and realising that he was able to inspire others to challenge themselves. Despite his status as a global action star, Hemsworth is very introspective and seems to be deeply driven in finding constant meaning and purpose to his life. "This experience reminds me of what I'm offering up and receiving," he says, adding that it's important for him to always remember that "we don't survive and thrive on our own". Alongside his lifelong quest to live better, Hemsworth is also thinking about what is next in his acting career. Thor will return in Avengers: Doomsday which is set to be released in the winter of to whether there will be another standalone film, the actors says: "I don't know, we'll have to see where this one goes as I'm unpacking all of that now." "It's something I certainly love and so we'll see what Geographic's Limitless: Live Better Now is available to stream on Disney+ from 15 August.

Jojo Siwa's ex Kath Ebbs reveals their disappointment after not being invited to Logie Awards
Jojo Siwa 's ex Kath Ebbs has expressed their disappointment about not being invited to the 2025 Logie Awards. The 27-year-old Australian influencer, who uses they/them pronouns, has admitted to having FOMO - fear of missing out - while watching the event on Sunday night. 'Genuinely every year in my head I'm like ugh I would of ate,' they told The Daily Telegraph. 'We know you couldn't catch me dead in a dress, but a part of me feels like if I ever got invited to the Logies, I think I would just go drag style and wear a dress, go so fem ya'll wouldn't even recognise me.' Kath said they would like to 'manifest' being invited to next year's ceremony. It comes after Kath went Instagram official with their new romance last week. Ebbs is in a relationship with Australian Rules footballer Tilly Lucas-Rodd, 29, and shared the first snaps of them together on Instagram on Thursday. It comes just three months after the social media personality was dumped by JoJo who is now in a relationship with her Celebrity Big Brother co-star Chris Hughes. The photos saw the loved-up pair posing in a photobooth as they shared a romantic kiss and beamed at each other. Alongside the post, Kath wrote: 'The rumours are true! YES I still (stupidly) believe in love!!' Tilly is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns. They are the first AFLW player to undergo top surgery and documented the procedure in an Instagram clip. Tilly plays for the Hawthorn Football Club in Melbourne and previously played for the Carlton Football Club. Kath first debuted the new romance when they posted two sentimental TikToks on July 18, with a sarcastic caption aimed at Dance Moms star JoJo. 'Hope this one doesn't cheat on me,' Kath wrote, alongside a video of the Hawthorn player, calling the sports star their new 'crush'. 'Nature is healing,' the Sydney-based content creator captioned a second video of them lip syncing to the song DAISIES from Justin Bieber's new album SWAG. The video was filmed on the front porch of Tilley's Melbourne home, with Kath writing: 'Didn't know all I needed was this album and an all-consuming crush'. 'Who's this new crush huh? Lemme have a word with them,' Tilley flirtatiously commented. 'Posting said crush because what the hell are they going to do about it?' Kath wrote over the second video of Tilley dancing around the living room. Fans were quick to offer their well wishes and congratulations to Kath, who just three months ago found themselves flying from London to Sydney solo and single after the Celebrity Big Brother UK finale.

Donald Trump wades into Sydney Sweeney ad debate
Donald Trump has waded into the debate surrounding Sydney Sweeney's jeans ad. The American Eagle ad, which features the 27-year-old actress, who starred in the HBO series Euphoria and White Lotus, has the tagline "Sydney Sweeney has great jeans". It has sparked a debate in the US over race and Western beauty standards. In a since-corrected Truth Social post, the US president initially misspelt Sweeney's first name, saying: "It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying of the shelves.' Go get 'em Sidney." Most of the criticism has centred on videos using the word "genes" instead of "jeans", with one in which Sweeney says: "Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair colour, personality and even eye colour. My jeans are blue." Critics argued the play on words potentially promotes eugenics, a discredited theory that believed humanity could be improved through the selective breeding of certain traits. But others have defended the ad, saying the critics are reading too much into its message. The video appeared on American Eagle's Facebook page and other social media channels, but is not part of the ad campaign. In a statement on Instagram on Friday, American Eagle Outfitters said the campaign "is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story. We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone." Stocks in American Eagle Outfitters jumped by 23.3% after Mr Trump's intervention. Trump knows all publicity is good publicity US correspondent @marthakelner They say all publicity is good publicity, and Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ad is certainly notching up the column inches, especially now Donald Trump has intervened. The US president must have been breathlessly excited when he found out Sweeney was a registered Republican because he wrote a Truth Social post in support of her before deleting it twice and reposting three times to correct various spelling and grammatical errors. He clearly could not wait to get involved in the discourse. "Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the HOTTEST ad out there,' he wrote. "Go get 'em Sydney!" In any other era, the president weighing in so heavily on one side of a pop culture issue would've been unusual. But the current president knows people are talking about the ad around their dinner tables and at parties right now. By injecting himself into the discussion, they will now be talking about him too. In his Truth Social post, which he reposted three times to fix various typos, Mr Trump compared the ad with "woke" ones "on the other side of the ledger" - as he criticised other companies, as well as hitting out at Taylor Swift. "The tide has seriously turned - Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be," he wrote.
