Robyn Anne Preston is an Australian politician. She has been a member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly since 2019, representing Hawkesbury for the Liberal Party.[1] Her Electorate Office is situated within the grounds of Western Sydney University in Richmond.
Preston served on The Hills Shire Council for ten years, including a period as Deputy Mayor, and was also Australia's first female rugby league commentator on commercial television.[2]
In the 1980s, Preston appeared as a centrefold model in Penthouse Magazine under the pseudonym of Kelly Russell. The photos re-emerged in 2018 as she was seeking preselection for the seat she eventually won and in 2012 as she sought to be elected to The Hills Shire Council.[3] One of the people who had circulated them in 2018 was Peter Poulos who became a member of the Legislative Council in 2021 and was publicly criticised for it in the leadup to the 2023 election.[4]
