A CHILD millionaire who retired last year has revealed she’s jetting off for her SIXTH luxury holiday of the year.
Pixie Curtis, 12, shot to fame as a kid thanks to her fidget spinner and hair bow businesses, and her social media presence – all of which were masterminded by her mum.

The pre-teen was flogging products that millions of young girls wanted and using her YouTube channel to promote them.
Her mum, Roxy Jacenko, founder of PR firm Sweaty Betty, set up the brands when Pixie was a toddler.
The PR guru famously said that her daughter could “retire at 15” if she wanted to.
But thanks to the riches yielded in the first decade of her life – a time when most kids are focused on playing with friends and going to school – Pixie actually retired last year aged 11.
She cited a “focus on school” as her main reason for stepping back from work.
In July last year, Pixie, originally from Sydney, Aus, enrolled in a new school in Singapore after moving there with her family.
Alongside her mum, she moved with businessman dad, Oliver Curtis, and 10-year-old brother, Hunter.
The rich family relocated due to Oliver’s work, with Roxy selling off a number of her businesses in the lead up to the move.
The move hasn’t stopped Pixie’s globetrotting activity, though.
She’s been on five trips so far since Christmas and is currently on her sixth.
The famous pre-teen spent the yuletide season in the French Alps before flying to Thailand to see in the new year.
By February, she’d jetted off to Vietnam and stayed in the Four Seasons Resort in Hội An with her mum, brother and friend.
A Three Bedroom Beach-Front Pool Villa at the hotel, which would’ve slept the party-of-four, costs an eye-watering £3,764 a night.
In April, Pixie flew back to her motherland of Australia for a wedding.
How did Pixie Curtis make her millions?
Pixie Curtis began her entrepreneurial journey as a toddler thanks to the support and guidance of her PR guru mum, Roxy Jacenko.
One of her earliest ventures was Pixie’s Bows, a company that sells hair accessories for children. It is as old as the CEO herself after Roxy established the brand in her daughter’s name when she was just a baby.
She later set up Pixie’s Fidgets, which capitalised on the fidget spinner trend in 2021. The company reportedly turned over £105,000 in its first month.
Pixie also produces sponsored social media content and advertisements, which experts estimate can earn her anywhere from £6,000 upwards per post.
Come June, she headed to the Maldives and shared a series of picturesque snaps from the dream vacation on Instagram.
The kid millionaire boasted about her £1,850-a-night villa at the five star Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi resort, where she dined on a viral ‘floating’ breakfast.
Fast forward to today, Pixie is heading off on her latest jolly… but keeping the location totally under wraps.
“Holidays bound,” she wrote on Instagram, alongside a photo of her Christian Dior beauty case, Hermes wallet and Apple Mac.
