Underbelly star Vince Colosimo’s rarely-seen daughter Lucia, 21, steps out looking very different from a year ago – after her famous father admits to getting hooked on ice and owing thousands of dollars of debt
Vince Colosimo’s rarely seen daughter Lucia looked unrecognizable when she stepped out in Melbourne earlier this month following her father’s recent legal woes and confession of ice cream addiction.
She was dressed in sporty leggings and a tight midriff top with no bra underneath.
The OnlyFans model, who is only 21, had a pair of white sneakers on her feet to stay comfortable and tucked her hair into a blue beanie.
The brunette was completely makeup-free and held a soda can firmly in her hand.
She walked quickly and was accompanied by a male companion, who carried shopping bags.

While her father continues to make headlines for his lawsuits, Lucia has largely stayed out of the limelight.
However, Instagram photos suggest that she is quite a social butterfly and likes to party in Melbourne’s hottest nightspots.
One picture shows her smoking a vape, while others show her in skimpy clothes with friends.
In 2021, Lucia joined her soap opera actress mother, Jane Hall, for a glamorous photo shoot for The Australian Woman’s Weekly.
In the accompanying interview, Hall described how her “beautiful” daughter, then 19, was “living her best life” after taking a gap year from studying psychology and criminology.
“On Christmas Eve, she’d rather be at some party than hanging out with her mom,” Hall said.
‘But that’s how it should be. She is almost 19 and quite mature. So I’m happy for her.’

It comes after her famous father avoided coughing up $61,858 in unpaid fines after convincing a magistrate that he is mentally ill, broke and on the verge of becoming homeless.
Colosimo faced Melbourne Magistrates Court via video link in July after failing to pay the mountain of fines.
The court heard that Colosimo claimed he had suffered from the horrendous effect of methamphetamine during his offense, which dates back to 2012.
Represented by top side Julia Munster, the disgraced thespian has been accused of accumulating a staggering 169 traffic fines, mostly while disqualified from driving.
About 150 of those fines were handed out through the traffic camera bureau, with the court holding a 68-page binder of summaries of those incidents.
Most fines related to driving an unregistered vehicle on toll roads and speeding, with at least two fines for not voting and blocking someone’s driveway.

Magistrate Guillaume Bailin said that under the Fines Reform Act, he could only waive Colosimo’s fines if the actor showed “special circumstances.”
The court heard that Colosimo’s lawyer claimed that her client suffered from a “serious mental illness.”
Bailin revealed that Colosimo had told the doctor that he had been abusing the deadly drug ice for over a decade.
“(The doctor) concludes that he has ADHD, major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder and stimulant use disorder as what I would call a coping mechanism, while also having the PTSD symptoms,” he said.
“What (the doctor) apines is that during the offending conduct, the applicant’s diagnosis was present … those disorders were present, they have not only been present during the offending conduct, but are persistent and subject to treatment.”
Ms Munster filed two psychiatric reports with the court, drawn up in May and July, explaining how and why Colosimo received the fines.
“He admits liability for all unpaid offences,” Ms Munster admitted.
The court heard that the struggling actor had received government payments during the Covid pandemic but was only able to pay back $6,025 of his fines with money he borrowed.
Mr Bailin outlined the plight of the former Hollywood star’s financial situation, which left him with no assets to his name.
“Mr. Colosimo has no assets, in fact he is unable to meet any financial obligation whether residency or otherwise… His rental and work situation remains precarious,” he said.

Mrs. Munster suggested that Colosimo was about to become homeless.
“He lives a meager lifestyle with very limited financial capacity to really meet his current obligations, let alone everything else,” she said.
“Your Honor can see the very difficult financial situation he is in and that is a pertinent consideration when Your Honor is considering what setting to make.”
Under any payment plan, Colosimo would have had to work an hour for every $40 he owed — about 64 full days 24 hours a day.
In handing down his sentence, Mr Bailin addressed the shocking impact drugs have had on the drug addict.
“Illegal drug use contributed to emotional dysregulation, cognitive problems and generally contributed to the lifestyle instability and instability that Mr. Colosimo was inadequately able to handle,” he said.
“This culminated in disobeying obligations with a range of offenses from parking to speeding to not voting.”
However, he directed that Colosimo be able to perform 101 hours of unpaid community service over the next year, which meant that Colosimo would not have to pay $58,000.
During his time as a successful actor, Colosimo was famous for his roles in movies like Underbelly, Chopper and the popular crime series Underbelly.
