Paula's mini-me ’IT’S JUST YOU & ME, KID!’
They’re often mistaken for sisters, and Paula Bennett and her daughter Ana Aitcheson think it’s hilarious.
“We probably are more like sisters,” Paula, 51, laughs. “But I also like that we are mother and daughter because it doesn’t matter how old Ana gets, she still needs her mum to be a mum.”
The former National MP and deputy leader, who retired from politics last year, was just 17 when she became pregnant with Ana, now 33, and she raised her alone, which meant she often felt like it was just the two of them against the rest of the world. As a result, they share an incredibly tight bond.
