Carrie has been enjoying a family getaway to Byron Bay, on the NSW North Coast.

‘My passive aggressive friend asked if perhaps I got a new hat. I have no idea what she is talking about,’ she wrote playfully.

A number of the photos showed her with her husband, Chris Walker, and their daughters, Evie, five, and Adelaide, two.

They were also joined by Carrie’s 12-year-old son, Oliver, from her marriage to Greg Lange, who died of brain cancer in December 2010.

Carrie is based in Melbourne for her duties on Channel 10’s The Project, and owns a $3million holiday home in Byron Bay.
