If anyone has proven that it’s never too late to change things up, that person is Kylie Minogue. Not only has she gone through multiple career phases over the years, but recently she announced that after 30 years of living in London, she’s returned home to Melbourne to be closer to her family – and bought a lavish mansion at the end of last year to move in to. After living in London for 20 years myself, I totally get why she can’t do another freezing February in Blighty – no matter how good Marks & Spencer is! But what’s really interesting is she’s planning on continuing her relationship with art director Paul Solomons while he remains in London. Read all about how they’re going to make it work on…

It’s about as close to a baby announcement as you’re ever likely to get from Sophie Turner and husband Joe Jonas. Wearing a loose-fitting midriff white top and low slung tracksuit pants, the Game of Thrones star showed off what appears to be a burgeoning baby bump while out with her young family in Los Angeles on the weekend. The low-profile couple were spotted strolling through Los Angeles’ Los Feliz neighbourhood with their young toddler Willa after enjoying the Super Bowl action the previous day, where the actress kept her tummy under wraps beneath an Eminem T-shirt. Turner, 25, and Jonas, 32, who tied the knot in 2019, welcomed their daughter in July 2020. A new baby would be another bundle of joy for the Jonas family with younger brother…

Renée Zellweger is unrecognisable in her latest role as a middle-aged murdering mum – and that’s just the way she likes it. “Oh, gosh, if you don’t recognise an actor or an actress in a performance, that’s a great compliment,” the 52-year-old tells Vanity Fair. “You’re not trying to tell your own story.” In the upcoming true-crime series The Thing About Pam, Zellweger plays Pam Hupp, an infamous American woman serving a life sentence for the deadly 2016 shooting of a disabled man and accused of killing another woman in 2011. Zellweger is no stranger to putting her body on the line to transform for a role. In 2001, the two-time Oscar winner famously put on almost 14kg when she starred in Bridget Jones’ Diary, lost the weight and then…

In Adele’s first Instagram post since she tearfully announced the last-minute postponement of her Las Vegas residency, the singer confirmed on February 1 she would still be attending and performing at the Brit Awards. The upbeat post featured her smiling face holding up a hearts playing card and dismissed rumours that her relationship with Rich Paul, 40, was on the rocks. “Rich sends his love,” Adele cheekily ended her Instagram caption. Just over a week later the singer, 33, was walking the red carpet into the O2 Arena in London, turning heads in a custom black velvet Armani Privé gown. She also pulled focus by flaunting a huge pear-shaped diamond ring on her left hand, which led to speculation that her sports agent beau had popped the question. She kept…

Like a lot of Aussie expats, Kylie Minogue used to have the best of both worlds, reaping the lucrative benefits of living overseas while jetting back to Oz a few times a year to see family and friends. But the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, with its strict border closures in 2020, changed all that and made the singer, 53, realise she needed to make a drastic change. So after three decades of living in the UK, Minogue quietly packed up and came home to Melbourne. ”I wanted to spend more time with my family,” the pop star tells The Sydney Morning Herald. “But I was like, ‘Why not? Just do it.’ Time is precious and it’s the evolution of me,” she explains. Unfortunately, the big move also meant leaving…

At the premiere of her new rom-com Marry Me, Jennifer Lopez accessorised her Giambattista Valli bridal dress with Dior jewellery, Jimmy Choo shoes, a Dolce & Gabbana clutch – and adoring boyfriend Ben Affleck. “It’s a great date night. We’re super-happy,” Lopez gushed to reporters about their PDA-packed appearance. “What can I tell you? We’re just having a good time.” A good time that, if Lopez has her way, has no end in sight. In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, the 52-year-old spilled that she and Affleck, 49, who called off their 2004 wedding due to “excessive media attention”, won’t make the mistake of letting each other go again. “I don’t think we would have got back together if we thought that was where it was headed,” she said.…

Breaking up is hard to do – especially when you’re in the public eye as much as Brian Austin Green and Megan Fox. But after a turbulent year, the former couple have found their freedom after finally agreeing to the terms of their divorce. The fresh start couldn’t come soon enough for the Beverly Hills, 90210 star, 48, who had a good reason to put the past firmly in the rear-view mirror. Just days earlier, Austin Green shared the happy news that he and his new love, Sharna Burgess, are expecting their first child together. The actor and the Dancing with the Stars pro shared the news on February 4 by releasing a series of stunning images, in which Burgess is showing off her burgeoning bump as they enjoyed a…

“A couple of times I warned her about the dangers out there,” says Simpson of Balmain, who was just 22 when she disappeared in 1994. “But you know what people are like in their 20s – she was like, ‘I’m OK, don’t worry about me.’” When the talented dancer failed to meet her mother Jan at a Newcastle railway station as arranged, for a visit prior to her trip to Japan, her mother became instantly worried and spent the rest of the day on the phone to her daughter’s flatmates, friends and all the Sydney hospitals but didn’t find any trace of Balmain. For the almost 30 years since, Balmain’s whereabouts have remained a mystery.…

MADISYN BALDWIN, 17 The oldest of four kids, Baldwin was an artist who also enjoyed reading and writing, her family told local news station WDIV. A senior who had transferred to Oxford High in 2021, she had already been accepted into several colleges. TATE MYRE, 16 A player on both offence and defence for the Oxford High School football Wildcats, Myre died in a patrol car heading to the hospital after reportedly trying to stop the shooter. “I miss you with everything in my heart Tate,” wrote his older brother Ty.

Her basketball team said they missed the “silly” teen with a “kind heart” and “passion for the…

Sun protection is something we often associate with the warmer months, but as autumn starts to approach, it’s a timely reminder that we need to guard ourselves against the harsh rays of UV radiation at all times through the year. “Even when the sun isn’t shining and the temperatures aren’t high, the UV index may still be high enough to cause skin damage,” explain Dr Michelle Rodrigues, dermatologist and founder of Chroma Dermatology (chromaderm. com.au). “Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation can cause sunburn, skin damage in the form of pigmentation and wrinkles, and skin cancer.” If you need some sun-safe tips, even if the weather is cooling down, here are all your burning questions answered! WHEN DO I NEED SUN PROTECTION? “Protection from UV rays is important all year round,…

WHAT IS IT? A luxury gym and wellness space in one. THE VERDICT: “Like many people, I've definitely let my fitness game slip over the past couple of years. While online workouts can be helpful, I've missed the kind of feedback you get from supervised workouts (which can especially come in handy if you're feeling out of practice). So when the chance came to try a fitness session at Sydney’s luxurious Soma Collection with expert trainer Simon Anderson, I was all in. This is a holistic approach to exercise, where you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the way you work out on a physiological level. Anderson gave me corrections I never knew I needed, along with a thorough assessment of my strengths as well as areas I need to work…

Tell us about your journey with 6Ft6. Was it something you fell into or, being a family business, was it an expectation? BELINDA: I definitely fell into it. Scott brought me in five years ago to run the Facebook account and now we’re running the business side by side. I take the creative arm and Scott is the numbers man. SCOTT: If you ask Richard, also known as Dad, it was his cunning plan all along for me to take on the family business. However, I can honestly say that it was something that organically grew on me. The more I worked in the business during the early days, the more I fell in love with the journey it was taking me on. Why is it called 6Ft6? SCOTT: 6Ft6…

Brooke Shields was catapulted to fame at age 15 in her sexy – and controversial – ad, in which she said “nothing” could come between her and her Calvin Klein Jeans. Now, at age 56, the actress has never looked better as she dons denim again, and little else, in a new campaign for Jordache. Refreshingly, the Blue Lagoon star insisted there would be no airbrushing on the finished images before she agreed to the shoot. “There’s something about owning your sexuality at this age that is on point for where we are today. It’s not angry empowerment,”she told People magazine. “It was important for you to see this is my 56-year-old body and to fight the retouching. I’m always like,‘You better keep it honest.’And we did.” Despite her early…

Celebrity offspring Frances Bean Cobain and Riley Hawk have quietly revealed they are dating. The daughter of rock royalty Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love slipped a snap of a smiling Hawk, the son of skating legend Tony Hawk, into her Instagram feed, in which she “shared a few moments that were captured/ created this past year that brought me a great amount of joy’’.

Bob Saget’s sudden death last month in a Florida hotel room was an accident and the result of a blow to the head, his family have revealed. “The authorities have determined that Bob passed from head trauma,’’ they said in a statement. “They have concluded that he accidentally hit the back of his head on something, thought nothing of it and went to sleep. No drugs or alcohol were involved.’’ The Orange County Medical Examiner’s office found the comedian and Full House star likely fell and hit the back of his head but exactly what happened remains a mystery. Investigators have speculated that he may have slipped and fallen in the bathroom, but have found no evidence to support their theory. The 65-year-old, who left behind a wife and three…

“I’m going to handle it ...”- YE The first time Kim Kardashian posed for the cover of Vogue magazine in 2014, she wore an off-white Lanvin gown and was wrapped in the arms of her then-fiancé Kanye West. In her latest cover story for the fashion magazine, she opened up about the reasons for leaving her husband after seven years of marriage. “I think in the last two years I decided, I’m going to make myself happy. And that feels really good,” she said. “And even if that created changes and caused my divorce, I think it’s important to be honest with yourself about what really makes you happy. I’ve chosen myself.” Not so fast. After the March cover story was published, the reality mogul’s ex reposted photos from the…

Through the drama of the past couple of years, Prince Harry has been keen to distance himself from his Windsor relatives. But there is one family member he is still trying to make proud – his mum. On February 10, the Duke of Sussex, 37, vowed to continue Princess Diana’s “unfinished” work as he urged the public to get tested for HIV in a video call. For the UK’s National HIV Testing Week, Harry was joined in the chat by Welsh rugby star Gareth Thomas, 47, who announced in 2019 he had tested positive for the virus. “Every single one of us has a duty, or at least an opportunity, to get tested ourselves or to make it easier for everybody else to get tested,” Harry says during the call.…

From her portrayal of fresh-faced good girl Sandy in Grease to her chart-topping music career – a career that has seen her become one of the bestselling recording artists of all time – Olivia Newton-John is one of the world’s most famous faces. However, while the triple threat has enjoyed fame and fortune beyond her wildest dreams, with these highs there have also been earth-shattering lows. After publicly battling breast cancer following a diagnosis 30 years ago – and undergoing debilitating chemo, and surgeries including a partial mastectomy and breast reconstruction – Newton-John made the decision to keep her second diagnosis to herself. However, in 2017 she went public with the heartbreaking news that her cancer had reappeared for a third time. Yet despite the blow, the British-Australian singer is…

“I’m so grateful for the opportunity to bring this guy to life”-RITCHSON With his chiselled face – not to mention those enormous biceps – on billboards throughout major cities around the world, Alan Ritchson is going to be, well, big. Very big. Taking on the role of action hero Jack Reacher for a new TV series has catapulted the 37-year-old actor into another stratosphere of fame and put his private life in the spotlight. His growing fan base includes British author Lee Child who created the ex-military police officer for the popular fiction books, which have sold more than 100 million copies worldwide! But his biggest supporter remains his wife of 15 years, Catherine, who he has actively tried to shield from a “public life she never asked for’’. Ritchson’s…

“Marriage was a necessary choice for us”- MAKO Picking up their bags in New York’s JFK Airport back in November, Mako Komuro and her husband Kei looked like hundreds of other ordinary newlywed couples who might have been returning from their honeymoon that day. But as she coolly walked through the terminal towards her new life with her university sweetheart, the former Japanese royal, 30, showed no signs of the simmering tension their union had left in their wake. The princess fled to the US to join her lawyer husband, also 30, after she was forced to choose between being with her love and her royal status. In a tale not unlike the events that precipitated Britain’s Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s move across the pond a year earlier, their…

What’s your skincare philosophy? The most important thing for me is sun protection. [I apply] SPF every single day, regardless of the SPF in [my] foundation, and try to wear hats outside as much as possible. Talk us through your current beauty routine … I wear a lot of makeup for work so my routine is all about effective makeup removal, cleansing and moisturising. On days we’re not shooting, I prefer less makeup and I tend to take the “fake it till you make it” philosophy when it comes to a healthy glow and tan. What product can’t you live without? Three Warriors Self Tan. I’ve used it for years because the colour is fantastic, it dries quickly and it’s certified organic so I’m not worried about harmful toxins. I’m…

Marvel star Tessa Thompson definitely knows a thing or two about smashing goals. As the fearless warrior Valkyrie, she returns to the big screen this year to battle more archenemies in her upcoming movie Thor: Love and Thunder. There’s no doubt about it, getting into superhero shape also takes plenty of dedication off-screen! When Thompson began shooting the film in Sydney last year, one of the first things she did was enlist the team at Soma Collection to help her get into fighting form. “Our goal was to achieve a lean athletic physique without losing femininity,” Nigel Morgan, personal trainer at Soma Collection exclusively tells WHO. “We worked together for about 12 weeks and as a testament to Tessa’s tenacity and discipline, she looked fantastic for the film.” QUALITY OVER…

After being switched on and plugged in for the past few years – all the while dealing with a pandemic – Aussies are now enjoying the chance to travel and rediscover the great outdoors.

In The Italian Girl, Anita Abriel tells the story of Marina, who flees to Florence after her dad is killed by the Nazis for hiding a Jewish artist in his basement. Soon, she risks her life to save precious Italian artworks from the regime. The book is Abriel’s third novel that is set in Europe during the tumultuous years of WWII. “It’s such a fascinating era because it forced so many people, especially young people, to become incredibly brave,” the writer tells WHO. “Marina, barely in her 20s, is putting her life in danger every day. It was a period that created heroes out of normal citizens.” Abriel’s love of art inspired the tale. “If the Germans had been allowed to take Italy’s most beloved paintings and sculptures, they would…

Naomi Campbell has shown off her daughter to the world for the first time in a stunning photo shoot for British Vogue magazine – but she’s still keeping her name and details of her arrival under wraps. However, the 51-year-old did reveal: “She wasn’t adopted – she’s my child.’’ In May 2021, Campbell, announced on Instagram that she had become a mother, saying, “A beautiful little blessing has chosen me to be her mother, so honoured to have this gentle soul in my life.’’ The shock announcement sparked rumours the supermodel had turned to adoption to fulfil her dream of becoming a parent. Campbell explained to Vogue only a handful of people “knew that I was having her’’. “But she is the biggest blessing I could ever imagine. It’s the…

Ye’s railing against Kardashian’s new beau Pete Davidson ramped up on February 12. He posted an Avengers- themed meme depicting himself, Drake, Julia Fox, Travis Scott and Future in a “Civil War” against Davidson’s crew of Kardashian, Kid Cudi, Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift. He published more posts about Davidson, calling him names including “Skete” and “d---khead”. In addition to the online rants, Ye also sent Kardashian a truck full of flowers to mark Valentine’s Day. The excessive gesture no doubt inflamed an already tense situation.…

After spending a historic 70 years on the British throne, it’s hard to imagine a world without Queen Elizabeth II. But a close call with COVID-19 has provided a stark reminder that the 95-year-old monarch won’t live forever. Prince Charles sparked serious health fears for his elderly mum after it was revealed he had visited her at Windsor Castle two days before he tested positive for coronavirus on February 10. It’s the second time the Prince of Wales has contracted the virus, after getting it in 2020. His wife Camilla recently tested positive, too. Buckingham Palace has since refused to comment on whether or not Elizabeth has the virus, saying she is showing “no symptoms” and will “continue to be monitored”. The health scare and her advancing years brought the…

Newton-John married actor Matt Lattanzi in 1984, after they met on the set of Xanadu in 1980. They divorced in 1995. After their relationship ended, she met cameraman Patrick McDermott and they dated on and off for nine years. Tragically, while Newton-John was in Australia at her Gaia luxury wellness resort in 2005, he went missing following a fishing trip off the Californian coast. Since that heartache, Newton-John has finally found happiness with “the love of my life”, John Easterling, 69. The pair met at an environment show where Easterling, who founded a herbal remedies company, was showing his products. They wed in an Incan spiritual ceremony in Peru in 2008. “I’ve never been happier,” says the star.…

Keanu Reeves & Sandra Bullock Sparks flew between Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock during 1994’s hit flick Speed. But their chemistry wasn’t just on-screen. In the years since the action thriller came out, both stars have admitted they had a crush on the other. A few years ago, Bullock, 57, revealed she found The Matrix star, also 57, to be “hot and sweet”, but she only recently shared why. After Bullock admitted to her co-star she’d never tried champagne with truffles, he showed up a few days later with both – and a bunch of flowers. She recalled to Esquire magazine the actor saying, “I just thought you might want to try champagne and truffles, to see what it’s like.” In the years after, the pair have remained “just friends”,…

In the months before her sister disappeared, Suellen Simpson would have regular phone chats with her younger sibling, catching up on the 22-year-old’s busy life in Sydney. Simpson was living interstate, and her sister, Revelle Balmain, was a model and dancer who had recently made the cover of a magazine and was about to head to Japan where she hada three-month dancing contract. “It was fantastic, I was excited for her,” says Simpson. “She was young, she was beautiful, she was happy. She had everything going for her.” But on a November evening in 1994, in one of Sydney’s most enduring and painful mysteries, all of that promise was taken away. Balmain, who had been secretly working for two escort agencies, disappeared on November 5, 1994, after visiting a client…

Gotta get my beauty sleep!” is a phrase we often hear thrown around in a humorous way. But is there any merit to the saying? Do we actually need sleep to look good? Actually, yes! According to the experts, we really do. “The idea of beauty sleep is well supported by research. In a Swedish study, both men and women were consistently rated as healthier and more attractive when well-slept compared to when sleep-deprived,” says sleep expert and In Essence ambassador Dr Carmel Harrington. “[This] may be partly due to the fact that not getting enough sleep reduces the skin barrier’s ability to keep moisture locked in, which can lead to dehydration making fine lines more noticeable,” explains Dr Harrington. And that’s not all. Lack of sleep can also trigger…

For many of us, 2022 is the year we’re planning to return to the gym, but try to resist the urge to push yourself for fast results. “It’s important to give your tissues (muscle, ligaments, fascia, bone) a chance to adapt to exercise again,” Soma Collection co-founder and wellness director Simon Anderson says. “If you go too hard too soon, you risk overloading and getting injured, or you are so sore for four to five days and you can’t exercise.” Anderson also recommends seeking expert advice to find the right approach. “If you want to make long-term change to health and fitness, you need a nutrition and exercise regimen tailored to you.”…

Australian actress and singer Melissa Tkautz knew she was going to be out of her depth when she signed up for SAS Australia, but the oldest of the new recruits says she was prepared to put her life on the line to prove a point. Told that her doubters didn’t think she would “last five minutes’’ was all the inspiration she needed to push herself to the limit. “I would sit at home watching this show saying there is no way I would do that, but when you’re there it becomes a personal battle and a personal challenge for yourself,’’ the 48-year-old mum-of-two tells WHO. “There were times I thought, ‘Even if I die right now, I’m going to die trying.’ I’m not kidding, that’s what went through my mind.”…

What do you think makes The Hundred concept work so well? The chance to see into the lives and households of everyday Aussies. Particularly if someone’s husband is doing something weird in the background. Is there scope, with so many people involved, for things to go a bit wrong? Absolutely. I have no idea what any of these people are going to say and it’s so surprising how much they are willing to share. Deciding to call someone’s friend live on the show to ask them for the money they owed was a nerve-racking moment. What are your favourite quiz or panel shows? Have You Been Paying Attention? and Hard Quiz are huge here in Australia and I’m a big fan of QI in Britain. If you could have any…
