Luisa Zissman's daughter, Dixie, 16, playfully teased her mother's "hotness" in a recent social media video shared by the former reality television personality.
Dixie posted a clip of herself posing before a night out, with a caption that read, "When I think I look hot but then my mum walks in." The video then transitions to Zissman, 39, walking down the street in a floral dress and heels.
Zissman shared the video on her own Instagram, captioning it, "Dixie made this. My beautiful girl." She mentioned that her daughter had approached her with the idea for the TikTok video, which they then filmed together.
Zissman, who appeared on the ninth series of The Apprentice in 2013 and was the runner-up, is also a mother to Esme, 10, and Clemmie, nine. She recently drew criticism for comments made on her podcast, "LuAnna," with co-host Anna Williamson, where she stated her intention to skip her younger daughter's school play due to the child having a "s*** part" and it not being worth her time.
Zissman described the role as a "non-speaking ensemble" part and expressed that she was "too busy" with work commitments, including conference calls and podcast recordings. She further elaborated that the part involved singing in a bonnet in a potentially hot environment, suggesting it wasn't worth attending unless the child had a main role. She also admitted to missing another daughter's woodwind recital because she dislikes the instrument's sound.
These remarks generated significant backlash from other mothers online, who argued that parental attendance is important regardless of the size of the role. Many emphasized the emotional impact on a child seeing a parent in the audience, even for a small part. Some commenters expressed solidarity with Zissman's sentiment, finding humor in her candidness and relating to the feeling of having too many commitments.
Zissman later clarified in the comments section that she did attend the play for a short period, leaving briefly for work calls before returning at the end. She is married to Andrew Collins and they share Esme and Clemmie, while Dixie is from her previous marriage to Oliver Zissman.
