Made in Bondi follows young Sydney socialites through relationships, ambition and friendship in Bondi and the Eastern Suburbs. One cast member, model Isabella Cicero, has a Perth connection: Channel 4 said she was born in Western Australia, attended a Perth private school on a cello scholarship and later moved to Sydney.

Seven Network and Channel 4 co-commissioned the series. Matchbox Pictures and Monkey, labels of Universal International Studios, co-produced it. Channel 4’s July 2024 cast announcement listed Isabella Cicero alongside Billy Daniels, Pippa Hanan, Jai Kaldor, Lawson Mahoney, Charlie Moore, Lachlan McLean, Molly Paradice, Emma Pillemer, Bella Salerno and Paul Versace. Kayla Krug and Harley Christie were also set to appear, with Made in Chelsea cast members Tristan Phipps and Miles Nazaire making special guest appearances.
Isabella Cicero’s Perth background
In its 2024 cast biography, Channel 4 identified Cicero as a model who was born in Western Australia and attended one of Perth’s private schools on a cello scholarship. It said she relocated to Sydney in her early 20s. The same biography noted that she had appeared in Made in Chelsea: Sydney in 2023; its stated age of 31 referred to the 2024 publicity, not her current age.

PerthNow also connected Cicero to Perth and reported that she moved to Sydney to pursue modelling. Its later coverage discussed her reflections on filming, missing Western Australia and her love life; those are personal details reported by the outlet, rather than independently verified facts about her private life. PerthNow’s July 2024 preview introduced her Perth connection in its coverage of the series.
