Aussie TikTok family's move to America slammed by fan
A famous Aussie family has divided fans after making the bold choice to pack their bags and move across the world.
TikTok sensation Kat Clark and her 14-year-old daughter Deja have traded in their Australian home for a life guided by the Star-Spangled Banner.
The two influencers — who boast a combined following of more than 10 million on TikTok — celebrated their departure from Australia with their family last week.
'We decided to host a going-away thing, because obviously we don't know when we will see my family next,' Kat said.
'I am really sad about leaving my grandma . . . she is 93 this year.
'Obviously, if something did happen, I would be on the first flight back home, but it's still sad knowing I won't be as close to them.'
The Gold Coast family hired a caterer and a decorator to create a US-themed party.

The decision has been met with mixed reactions from fans, most expressing concern over the current political climate in the US.
'I'm sorry, no opportunity could convince me to move to America (right now) it's literally turning into a hell hole,' one user said.

Others were more understanding, reminding the family they could always come back.
'We respect your decision, you can always come back if it isn't working out!'
Kat Clark's eldest daughter Latisha Clark, 22, has decided to stay in Australia.
It is yet to be revealed which of the 50 states the Clarks have chosen to call home, however there is speculation it will be somewhere in California.

‘Good start to snow season': Regional areas affected by weather change bring in tourism
Deputy Nationals Leader Kevin Hogan claims a change in weather has meant a 'good start' to the snow season. 'I think the great potential in Australian tourism is the regional areas,' Mr Hogan told Sky News Australia.

Now it's easier to take your dog on that long road trip
If you've ever questioned whether Australia is a pet-loving country, consider the fact that the pet industry is worth more than $14 billion a year. Yet the pet-friendly travel sector still has a long way to go. By various unofficial estimates, fewer than 10 per cent of stays allow pets of any kind and some hire-car companies ban hair-shedding passengers in their vehicles. With the RSPCA estimating that almost 70 per cent of Australian households own an animal, and dog ownership accounting for almost half of that, trying to plan a holiday with the four-legged family member can be frustrating. There are hosts out there keen to change this, and Good Boy on Western Australia's Coral Coast at Jurien Bay is the latest to offer a pet-welcoming option that – bonus – doesn't compromise on style and sophistication. Jurien Bay is a fishing village and holiday destination 220 kilometres north of Perth, on the Coral Coast Highway. Famous for crayfish, it fronts a marine park that offers the chance to swim with sea lions via several aquatic tour operators, as well as being a base from which to explore the Pinnacles in Nambung National Park. Then there are seasonal wildflowers, unspoiled and uncrowded beaches: it all adds up to an attractive pit stop for any road trip north along Australia's west coast. Good Boy, named for the owners' pooch, Henry, is an adults-only renovated beach shack sleeping four, with beautiful finishes, including a considered art collection and Fenton & Fenton furnishings. Peanut-butter dog biscuits are supplied and there's an outdoor dog shower. Henry, a well-behaved yellow labradoodle, doesn't get on the lounge, dig in the garden or go inside covered in sand; so his canine compadres are expected to do the same.
