Monk is based in Matcham on the NSW Central Coast, where she spent $2.3m in 2020 on a four-bedroom home set on 8356sq m.

She also retains a Mermaid Beach unit, bought for $165,000 in 2003.

Monk, who spent a decade in Los Angeles before returning to Australia in 2015, lives with her husband, photographer Joshua Gross.
