Life Of Lara

Model turned businesswoman Lara Worthington is hitting her stride and determined to make a difference.

LARA WORTHINGTON HAS BARELY HAD ANY SLEEP. Not because of some Hollywood party or fashionably late catch-up with famous friends. In fact, a middle-of-the-night bathroom run resulting in a blind tumble over a misplaced chair is to blame. With her husband away working and her boys sound asleep, Worthington spent the early hours of the morning lying awake, concerned that her nose (having taken the full brunt of the fall) might swell ahead of today’s cover shoot. It hasn’t. A faint red mark is just visible across the bridge, which is centred perfectly in the middle of an otherwise remarkably unblemished face. In the light of day she can laugh about it, flashing her signature megawatt grin and instantly disarming the entire crew. She’s happy to be here. “Any time to shoot is like a little holiday for me! It’s nice. I used to think it was work and now it’s like a little escape,” she laughs.
