Mia Hewitt was recently spotted engaging in a very unhealthy act in Sydney.
The 18-year-old daughter of tennis pro Lleyton Hewitt and Home and Away actress Bec Hewitt was pictured this week smoking a cigarette while out with friends.
This behavior puts the teenager in stark contrast to the rest of her family, known for their ultra-healthy lifestyle.
His son Cruz, 15, is following in his father’s footsteps as he competes in junior tennis tournaments around the world, and Bec and Lleyton have been vocal about healthy eating habits.
Bec, 41, does most of the cooking and opts for healthy versions of family favourites.
Talking to him The Sydney Morning Herald Last year, Lleyton, 43, said of Bec’s dishes: “I love her spaghetti bolognese and she also makes a fantastic lentil pasta dish.”
“With our son Cruz focused on becoming an athlete, and my athletic background, it’s really important that some meals focus on pasta; you definitely need the carbs when you’re competing and playing hard,” she added.
Lleyton also said that Bec’s Mexican dishes are “a great way to bring together discerning diners.”

But Bec isn’t the only one cooking for the family, as the tennis champion admitted he likes to take charge of the barbecue.
‘I like to put marinated chicken tenders on the grill and serve them with hand-cut fries or crispy roasted potatoes.’
This comes after the Hewitts’ eldest daughter Mia was spotted enjoying life in Sydney earlier this week.
Mia was spotted out and about with a group of friends in Sydney’s Rose Bay on Tuesday.

Mia was photographed this week while out for lunch at Rose Bay House with a friend.
Father’s favourite folk singer was shocked when she was spotted smoking a cigarette during the outing.
Her rock star friend Vanda Erich, lead singer of the band Liquid Zoo, also acted naughty on camera as she was seen wearing sunglasses and swearing while the group laughed.
The family are often seen out and about keeping active, but they always try to sit down to a home-cooked meal. Bec, 41, does most of the cooking and opts for healthy versions of family favourites. Pictured, L-R: Mia, Lleyton, Cruz, Ava and Bec Hewitt
Mia seemed to see the funny side as she smiled before dragging her friend along as they headed to the popular beachfront restaurant and bar.
She kept a close eye on Vanda during the outing as she placed her hand on her back as they walked side by side.
The duo were also joined by one of Vanda’s Liquid Zoo bandmates as they all exited Mia’s car together and headed out to grab a bite to eat.
It’s not the first time Mia has been seen with Vanda in recent months, after they were spotted out for lunch in Surry Hills in May.
Lleyton and Bec met on the tennis court for a charity match at the Starlight Cup in 1999.
The pair didn’t reconnect until a few years later and finally met in person in 2005, before getting engaged after a whirlwind romance that lasted six weeks.
Grand Slam champion Lleyton married actress Bec 18 years ago in a romantic ceremony at the Sydney Opera House.
In addition to singer Mia, they also share another daughter, Ava, 12, and son Cruz.
It was recently claimed that Bec could be planning a return in front of the cameras years after leaving her role as Hayley Smith Lawson in Home and Away in 2005.
