She attended secretarial school, working in the city and Mosman before travelling in the United Kingdom in 1955. In 1957 she married Peter Sinclair, a Royal Australian Navy serviceman, supporting him during his 41 year career in the navy, where he rose to the rank of Rear Admiral, and raising their three children.
