Zoe went on to say that learning how to raise children came with many obstacles, but she and Hamish, 42, are learning to overcome them together.

With a popular comedian for a father, it seemed the author and businessman was at risk of being outnumbered by pranksters, but she insisted that was far from true.
The couple, mothers of Sonny, eight, and Rudy, five, once flooded their Instagram accounts with adorable photos of their children, but are now rarely seen online without their faces hidden.
“Rudy is very funny, she has very good comedic timing,” Zoe admitted, but revealed that was not the case with her eldest son.
Zoe said her youngest son, Sonny, is “a little more like me” and is more inclined to follow rules because “he likes to do things the right way.”
It comes after Zoe broke her silence by buying back her stake in her skincare brand Go-To after beauty company BWX went into administration.
‘We are very private and very boring. “We’re just a normal family and I think our inclination to share our lives has diminished a lot,” Zoe said.
The Australian author first sold her 51.5 per cent stake in her beauty brand to the ASX-listed beauty conglomerate for $89 million in 2021.
But just two years later, Zoe and Go-To co-founder Paul Bates bought back their majority stake in the business for a fraction of the price at $21.8 million after BWX collapsed into administration in April 2023.
Reflecting on the turbulent time, Zoe admitted she felt “deeply out of her depth” with the deal because there is no “manual” for finding the perfect business partner.
Comedian Hamish Blake’s wife said she felt “motherly” towards Go-To and did everything she could to save the business after the BWX deal fell apart.
