Mikaela and Eliza love giving back to their hard-working mum Kristen, who recently divorced their dad, who’s no longer in the picture.
And now the House Rules stars have opened up to New Idea about the woman they say has given them so much “financially and emotionally.”
“She’s a very incredible woman,” Eliza tells New idea, after the other contestants transformed Kristen’s house.
Mikaela adds, “With Eliza as well, Eliza was studying, she was in Year 11 and 12 when Mum was studying to be getting her qualifications for a Nurse Practitioner, and Mum as well, just talking about it with her dedication, Mum is not very good at maths.
Mikaela says it runs in the family!
“I’ve gotten that gene, I’m terrible at maths, but Eliza would sit there while studying Year 12, and was sitting there and teaching Mum algebra, and algebraic equations and things like that to help her get through her Pharmaceuticals Course to become a Nurse Practitioner.”
