A few months ago, Luke, Chris and Liam Hemsworth all shared adoring tributes to their father, Craig, for Father’s Day, letting the world in on a little-known secret: Craig Hemsworth is really hot.

However, given the beauty of their three sons, we weren’t surprised to find out that their mum, Leonie Hemsworth, is stunning as well.

Leonie, who is about to turn 61, looks no older than her 30s, and shares the same blonde-haired, blue-eyed complexion as her sons.

Fans first cottoned on to Leonie’s youthful appearance when Chris posted a few snaps of her and his wife, Elsa, for Mother’s Day in 2020.

“Omg your mum looks like your sister 😂,” a fan wrote.

“She is youuuung😻💓💓😻😻and natural beauty 💫,” another added.

“Really… the Woman next to you is your mom ❤️ she looks ageless,” said a third.

While Leonie has (sadly) never shared her skincare routine publicly, Elsa Pataky has given some insight into her lifestyle in the past.

“The first person we know who started [intermittent fasting] really strict was Chris’ mum, actually,” Elsa told Body+Soul magazine.

“She looks amazing! She’s 60 almost, 59, and every year she looks even better … she started with one day of fasting, once a week, and then she started with the 15-16 hours of fasting.”

Before Leonie became the mother of three super-successful sons, she had a career as a teacher.

After giving birth to their youngest, Liam, she and Craig moved the three boys up to the Northern Territory, where they worked in a small, rural area four hours away from the nearest town.

“My parents ran the community centre which doubled as a post office and grocery store. It was in the middle of nowhere,” Chris told the Daily Telegraph.

“There were crocodiles and buffalo. I went to a school that was made up of 60 [Aboriginal] kids between the ages of five and 17, all mashed into two classrooms.”

The family relocated to Phillip Island in Victoria when the boys were older.

Although a mum of three, Leonie is also now a (very hot, young) grandmother to seven kids, shared between Chris and Luke.

Luke and his wife Samantha have four kids – Holly, Ella, Harper Rose, and Alexandre, while Chris is famously a devoted dad to daughter India, and twin sons Tristan and Sasha.

The family seem incredibly tight-knit and supportive of each other, and we love to see it!
