Entrepreneur and former Miss Australia, Nicole Gazal O’Neil is known for her standout role on The Real Housewives of Sydney, where she captivated audiences across three seasons with her authenticity, loyalty and glamorous yet grounded life.

Born in Dubai to a Swedish mother and Lebanese father, Nicole was raised in Sydney and has since lived a truly international life - with chapters in London, the U.S., Dubai and beyond. Fluent in English, Swedish, French, and Arabic, she is the embodiment of global sophistication. Despite her international lifestyle, Sydney will always be home.

Nicole earned a Bachelor of Commerce on scholarship from Bond University before being crowned Miss Australia in 2002 and placing in the top five at Miss World. That same year, she launched Pret-a-Party, a boutique event and production company known for crafting exquisite, one-of-a-kind experiences across Sydney and London. While her work has brought countless unforgettable moments to life, Nicole's favourite gatherings are still the ones hosted at home, surrounded by her nearest and dearest.

Now with her daughters, Nawal and Neve, grown and studying in the United States, Nicole has shifted her focus to her latest venture - BonPatch. Born from a desire to find an effective, accessible, and science-backed wellness solution, BonPatch offers wearable wellness patches that deliver essential nutrients without the hassle of pills or liquids. It’s a brand rooted in innovation, wellbeing, style, and Nicole’s unwavering standards.

Philanthropy is a cornerstone of Nicole’s life. In 2016, she raised $120,000 for Charlie Teo’s Cure Brain Cancer Foundation through her Food Truck Fund event. In response to the devastating Beirut port explosion in 2020, Nicole launched Basics for Beirut, coordinating the delivery of six 40-foot containers of critical aid to Lebanon. She is also a passionate ambassador for the anti-bullying initiative YOU CAN SIT WITH ME, a board member of Autism Mates, and a hands-on supporter of St Michael’s Meals, regularly cooking and delivering meals to those in need.

Whether she’s running a boardroom, throwing a party, launching a wellness brand, or delivering meals with love - Nicole does it all with style, purpose, and heart.
