Holly Valance Hosts Trump Fundraiser in London

Former “Neighbours” actress and pop star Holly Valance has taken on a surprising new role as a key supporter of Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign. On Wednesday, Valance hosted a high-profile fundraiser in London, with ticket prices starting at $10,000 (£7,800) and a dinner costing $50,000.

The event, held near the Chelsea Embankment, was described by Nigel Farage, a friend of Valance and fellow Trump supporter, as a “Holly party” promising “enormous fun.” Valance’s involvement in the fundraiser marks a significant shift from her earlier career in entertainment.

Born Holly Rachel Vukadinovic in Melbourne, Australia, Valance gained fame as Felicity “Flick” Scully on the Australian soap opera “Neighbours” before launching a brief but successful pop music career with hits like “Kiss Kiss.” She later moved to the UK, where she now resides with her billionaire husband, property developer Nick Candy.

Valance, 41, has publicly discussed her political evolution, stating that she shifted from left-leaning views to conservative positions as she matured. In interviews with GB News, she has criticized “woke-ism” and expressed concerns about the “Nanny state,” climate change narratives, and sex education for children.

Valance’s support for Trump has grown stronger, particularly after forming a close relationship with Nigel Farage.

The couple visited Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in April 2022, cementing her place in the Trump camp. The London fundraiser is one of the largest overseas events supporting Trump’s presidential bid.

Beyond her support for Trump, Valance has also influenced UK politics. She reportedly encouraged Farage to contest the Clacton constituency in the upcoming British election. “I have been whispering in his ear for a long time,” she told GB News.

Holly Valance’s transformation from a beloved actress and pop star to a prominent political fundraiser highlights her significant shift in public persona. Her involvement in Trump’s campaign underscores her evolving political views and her commitment to conservative causes.
