It’s hard to believe former child star Nikki Webster has children of her own these days.

While she’s best known for her cherub-faced performance at the 2000 Sydney Olympics and the bubblegum pop anthem Strawberry Kisses, the 33-year-old is all grown up with two kids, daughter Skylah, five, and two-year-old son Malachi.

Nikki, who now runs three Sydney-based dance studios, hit the headlines in 2019 as it came to light that her marriage to husband and father of her children, Matthew McMah, had ended after seven years.

But despite the marital breakdown, Nikki has always made the happiness and wellbeing of her children her top priority.

The singer even opted for a stint on Channel Ten reality show The Masked Singer last year to surprise her kids.

“I just want my daughter to watch it at home and see if she can pick me,” Nikki told the judges after she removed her mask.

“Did you guess me, Skylah? I hope you did and I hope you love the Alien, so it was for you, baby girl.”

Although she gushes about Skylah and Malachi when given the chance, Nikki has kept their upbringing relatively low-key, only sharing a handful of snaps on social media and taking part in the occasional photoshoot over the years.

But in the images she has shared, the affection and adoration Nikki has for her treasured pair is clearly evident.

It’s a full circle moment! “20 years on from #Sydney2000 and I can no longer fit into the dress but someone else can,” Nikki revealed alongside this amazing new snap of her daughter Skylah rocking that Hawaiian-print pink dress.

“I started thinking about [the first birthday party] as soon as she was born,” proud mum Nikki said at the time. “I had all these grand ideas of what I wanted to do, so it’s been a lot of fun!”

Nikki’s mum Tina previously told Woman’s Day that Skylah is “virtually identical” to Nikki at the same age. Looking at this snap, we tend to agree.
