The former New Zealand prime minister, who stepped down in January 2023 after guiding the country through crises like COVID-19 and the Christchurch attacks, confirmed the move through a spokesperson.
She has been spotted house-hunting in Sydney’s northern beaches and attending a community event in Gerringong, joined by husband Clarke Gayford and their daughter Neve.
The relocation coincides with over 60,000 New Zealanders moving to Australia in 2025 for better wages, while drawing mixed online reactions from outrage over her past policies to sympathy for her post-office path.
