Julie Goodwin shared a rare family photo as she enjoyed her vacation on the coast with her very tall children.
The 53-year-old MasterChef Australia season one winner took to Instagram on Friday to capture a candid snap from her holiday on the New South Wales south coast with husband Michael, their three sons – Joe, 28, Tom, 27, and Paddy, 25 – and three-year-old granddaughter Delilah.
In the family snap, Julie’s children tower over her as they pose on the outdoor terrace of their vacation home.
“Family vacation! Once your kids are older, it’s almost impossible for everyone to have free time at the same time,” she wrote in the caption.
‘That’s why this week has been so precious: just spending time together, playing, going for walks and of course, eating a lot together.’
“Delilah looked happier during the rest of the vacation than she did in this photo,” Julie added.
Some fans and followers of the famous chef took to the comments to point out the drastic height difference between her son.
“How cute! Look how big your boys are! Mine have outgrown me too!” wrote one user.

Julie seemed surprised by his presence as she replied with a simple “yes” before Dr Chris, 45, added: “Is it?”
When Julie answered affirmatively, Sonia grabbed her by the waist and led her into a dance number.
“Or is this it?” Sonia said as the clip cut to show Julie flaunting her moves on the dance floor.
She was dressed in a stunning red dress that reached mid-thigh and featured a huge floral decoration on one shoulder.
Julie was all smiles as she danced on the iconic DWTS stairs alongside her season-long dance partner.
With her short locks perfectly curled as usual, Julie accessorized with her iconic pair of glasses before slipping on some low-heeled silver pumps.
The clip ended with Julia twirling in the arms of her dance partner before returning to the kitchen to show Dr. Chris eating the salsa dish she prepared.
The celebrity chef recently opened up about her harrowing childhood trauma detailed in her new memoir.
Julie appeared emotional at the promo despite having recently spoken about her harrowing childhood trauma detailed in her new memoir.
Her autobiography, Your Time Starts Now, describes how she was sexually abused as a child and then attempted suicide as a teenager.

This comes after the full cast of Dancing with the Stars 2024 was finally confirmed ahead of its premiere later this year.
As well as Julie, four-time Gold Logie winner Lisa McCune will strut her stuff on the dance floor with football star Ben Cousins and former AFL WAG Nadia Bartel.
They will join singer Samantha Jade, SAS Australia’s Ant Middleton, AFL legend Shane Crawford and Olympian and former senator Nova Peris.
Completing the list of competitors are comedian Nikki Osborne, Home and Away’s James Stewart, Better Homes and Gardens presenter Adam Dovile and chef Hayden Quinn.
