Silvana has previously spoken about the importance about family in an interview with The Herald-Sun.

In the chat she also hinted that a move back to Melbourne from their current base in San Diego, California could be on the cards. 

‘I do value and pride myself in having quality family time, and at the same time, it’s good to have a balance,’ she told the publication.

‘(Nicholas) has started preschool and he misses his family here too, and he’s always asking questions.’
