Maria Thattil has given fans a glimpse inside her flashy Melbourne apartment.
The former Miss Universe Australia, 30, shared a video of herself taking time out of her busy work schedule.
In the clip, Maria sat at a home desk in her study that featured a cream-coloured sofa, a pink rug, and a very risqué wall artwork.
The painting hanging on the wall displayed a female’s legs spread over a pillow that read ‘f*** me’ on a red couch.
‘Nothing like a day in the home office in comfy activewear with freshly washed hair after two weeks of straight filming and shooting,’ she wrote alongside the clip.

It comes after the star, who is in a relationship with AFLW star Moana Hope, announced her shock career change earlier this month.
The model and podcaster revealed her long-held aspiration of venturing into acting and commenced filming a guest appearance on the reboot of the popular Aussie soap Neighbours.
‘I took a punt submitting a self-tape for a role that I knew I probably looked a little too young to play,’ she said.
‘However, the team at Neighbours loved it. They were gracious enough to call me back for a different role and voila… Amira Devkar is coming to Ramsay St.’

The character she will play is Haz Devkar’s older sister, played by Shiv Palekar, a recurring cast member on the show.
‘The opportunity is so aligned to my deepest values because I’m joining Neighbours at a time where the show is evolving beautifully to tell even more Australian stories,’ she said.
‘I genuinely can’t remember ever seeing a gay female South Asian Australian character on an Aussie TV show in my childhood,’ Thattil added, before claiming that not seeing this specific type of identity in media made her feel like she didn’t belong.

Following the publication of her book earlier this year, she resumed further coaching to hone her acting skills.
