Jacinda Ardern buys $5.3 million home in Sydney suburb

Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and her husband, Clarke Gayford, have purchased a $5.3 million home in Dee Why on Sydney’s northern beaches. The transaction marks the largest sale recorded in the suburb this year.

The purchase follows months of speculation regarding where the couple would settle in Australia. A spokesperson for Ardern previously stated that the family would be basing themselves out of Australia for the time being due to work commitments, which also allows them more time to visit New Zealand.
