Home and Away star Bec Hewitt’s daughter Mia appears to be following in the actress’ footsteps.
The creative teenager, who has made headlines in recent weeks for performing with her indie rock band, has now been spotted on the set of the Channel Seven soap.
On Monday, Mia, 19, was spotted on the set of Australia’s second longest-running TV series in Palm Beach, 26 years after her mother became a household name.
Working in the costume department, Mia’s main task seems to be carrying a large Bunnings umbrella to protect the cast members from the intense sun during their scenes.
His mother Bec, 41, rose to fame after playing for Home and Away Fan favorite Hayley Smith Lawson from 1998 to 2005.
In 2005, the WAG tennis player married Lleyton Hewitt while she was several months pregnant with their eldest daughter, Mia.

The creative teenager, who has made headlines in recent weeks for performing with her indie rock band, has now been spotted on the set of the Channel Seven soap.
In a moment of coming full circle, Mia has now returned to the set of Home and Away.
The teenager dressed casually in jean shorts and a white T-shirt as she chatted with the film crew.
She finished her look with black boots and sunglasses as she ran through the park while the stars filmed their outdoor scenes.
In May 2005, Bec announced that she was leaving Home and Away “for personal reasons”, a week after announcing her pregnancy.
He said the decision had been difficult, but he found he could not continue in the role.
‘“I will always remember my days on Home and Away as the best of my life,” he said.
“But at such an important time in my life, I need more time and flexibility to step away from the daily demands of the production schedule.”
She filmed her final scenes in June of that year and remained on air until September 2005. More than 100 actresses auditioned to replace her in the role of Hayley.

However, her album received mixed reviews and her music career came to an end in 2004 when she parted ways with Warner Music label.
A source recently said new idea Bec wants to make sure her daughter avoids the dangers that new, inexperienced artists can face.
“Bec knows how to deal with bad people and shady managers and doesn’t want Mia to make some of the mistakes she made early in her career, like being too optimistic about certain jobs,” the source said.
They added that while music is Mia’s current passion, she hasn’t ruled out a career in front of the camera, like her actress mother.
