DESPITE REFUSING TO ATTEND HIS PALM Springs wedding to boyfriend Grant, which aired on the March 13 finale, Bride & Prejudice: The Forbidden Weddings star Chris says his father, Geoff, has since extended an olive branch to the couple. “He reached out to me and offered to have a drink with us, and meet Grant next time we were on the Sunshine Coast.” As for mum Yvonne? Aside from the video message she recorded to decline his offer of free plane tickets to the US, “I received an email that was that same message, verbatim. She was afraid it might get edited for TV. All you didn’t see was the text I received from her after watching that video:‘I hope those tickets were refundable.’”…

RYAN GOSLING SUITED UP FOR THE PREMIERE of his romantic drama Song to Song to kick off the annual South by Southwest film festival in Austin, Texas. The movie, directed by experimental filmmaker Terrence Malick, was filmed in locations around the city and had no script.“It’s interesting, it’s challenging, it’s rewarding, it’s fun, it’s scary,” said co-star Michael Fassbender.“He never stops writing.”Gosling, whose partner, Eva Mendes, was in town but skipped the red carpet (see p. 89 ), called filming“a completely unique experience ... a completely different way of working.“ Charlize Theron talked up her role as a badass spy in the action thriller Atomic Blonde. “It was so hard, are you kidding me?”she laughed when asked about getting in shape for fight scenes. “When training first started I…

The growing love between cowboy Sean Hollands and Perth-based truck-driver Susan Rawlings has been one of Married at First Sight’s most heartwarming and rewarding storylines. But fans were left questioning the authenticity of the union when it was revealed that the 35-year-old father of two has a profile on acting website Star Now, which states producers find him a “natural” in front of the camera. “I’m not an actor and I never have been,” Sean tells WHO, insisting the only reason his profile appears on the site was so he could appear on television game show Family Feud last year. “I went on Married at First Sight for the right reasons, to find love,” he continues. “Some others [on the show] might not be as genuine but I think the…

Vale Bill Leak and Murray Ball The Antipodes have lost two notable cartoonists. On March 10, The Australian editorial cartoonist Bill Leak died of heart failure. He was 61. Leak, who won nine Walkley Awards, made international headlines last year when one of his cartoons led to accusations of racism (he countered that he was “bewildered” by the “absurd” claims). He is survived by wife Goong, stepdaughter Tasha and sons Johannes and Jasper. Two days later, New Zealand cartoonist Murray Ball, who created the beloved comic strip Footrot Flats, died in Gisborne on the North Island at age 78.

WHILE IT’S TOO SOON TO SAY IF their romance is anything serious, friends of both former baseball star Alex Rodriguez (A-Rod) and megastar Jennifer Lopez (J.Lo) say the pair are very much an item. Lopez split with rapper Drake in February and reconnected with Rodriguez that same month. A source says Rodriguez has always considered Lopez to be his “dream girl.” Days after news of their hook-up broke, J-Rod (as they were quickly dubbed) jetted to the Bahamas on March 10 for a getaway. “She enjoyed the weekend and seems very happy,” says a source close to Lopez, who posted then swiftly deleted on Instagram a cuddly looking photo during the holiday. Back in Miami, her ex-husband Marc Anthony was with their 9-year-old twins, Max and Emme. “They are still…

PRIVATE DIVORCE NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN Scarlett Johansson and estranged husband Romain Dauriac have gone searingly public—and could portend a bitter custody battle. In papers filed on March 7, Johansson asks for primary physical custody of Rose, her 2-year-old daughter with French journalist Dauriac. The request drew swift blowback from Dauriac’s lawyer, Hal Mayerson, who told WHO his client was “shocked” by the filing. (A source confirmed to WHO that Johansson, who was once married to Ryan Reynolds, initiated the split in mid-2016.) Before that, “We had been negotiating information relevant to their child and also economic issues,” says Mayerson, who claims negotiations broke down when he argued Johansson’s hectic schedule would turn Dauriac into a “drop-in babysitter.” Instead, his client wants Rose to remain in France. A source close to Johansson,…

ACTRESS ELIZA DUSHKU abused drugs and alcohol since starting at age 14, she revealed at the New Hampshire Youth Summit on Opioid Awareness on March 7. Now 36 and finally fulfilling her dream of attending college, she has been sober for 8 years. When Dushku began filming Buffy she was still in high school, an environment she said“can be so scary. I just remember, I loved the first time I took a drug because I loved the way it made me feel. I loved the way it made me not feel. I didn’t have to feel.” The sociology student recalled her major turning point:“I remember my brother telling me he didn’t want me to be around my niece because he didn’t trust me. I’m a really good auntie today. But…

DANCE PHENOMENON MADDIE Ziegler first found fame as drill-sergeant troupe leader Abby Lee Miller’s favourite bunhead on Arena’s Dance Moms. But since starring in Sia’s music videos and joining Paula Abdul and Jason Derulo at the judges’ table on So You Think You Can Dance: The Next Generation, the 14-year-old has become a star in her own right. So far Ziegler, who has travelled around the world to perform live with Sia, has cited dancing on Saturday Night Live (“It was past my bedtime at the time!”) as her favourite adventure. She has also captured her young career in a memoir, The Maddie Diaries, out on March 27. But Ziegler decided to leave Dance Moms last year, reluctant to ever return to reality TV. “Unless it’s like So You Think…

“I love creating music. A year off was great, but it felt like a void in my life. I’m glad to be back” Ed Sheeran enjoyed being on a break from fame. In 2014, the ginger-haired Englishman, 26, became an unlikely pop idol, rocketing to the top of the charts with his album x (pronounced “multiply”). It seemed that Sheeran was everywhere—until he wasn’t.“I needed to get away,” he says. And so he did, quitting social media and taking a year to travel the world with his girlfriend, risk-advisory consultant Cherry Seaborn, 24. The singer visited Ghana, Iceland and Japan, and “kind of eased back into life and reality.” Now he is ready for the spotlight again: this month Sheeran’s new album, ÷ (“divide,” naturally), debuted at No. 1 on…

The Wedding Crashers star concedes she would love to play Marge, the eccentric, rainbow-haired babysitter from her children’s book series, on the big screen. Who inspired the alternately sensible and silly Marge? She’s actually a combination of my two friends. One of them is just this wonderful storyteller who can turn the most banal situation into this magical, fantastical thing, and the other half is my girlfriend who is the eternal Peter Pan and just won’t grow up and sees the world through this childlike lens, which I also love. The stories are narrated by Jemima Button, who adores her little brother Jake. Is she patterned after you? I think so. I was very close to my brothers growing up. I think I was also a rule-follower and never wanted…

 When she signed on to play a war photographer who encounters the infamous ape in Kong: Skull Island, Larson tapped into a lapsed talent. “I started messing around with my camera again,” says the Oscar winner, 27, who studied photography in high school. Will audiences see any of her real snaps in the thriller? “Not in the movie, but they’ll definitely be out in the world at some point.” I didn’t know how to change a diaper. I had crew members show me how to change a diaper. I’m terrible, but yes, it has sort of activated that maternal side of me that I’m totally ready to have kids now. —Mandy Moore’s role as mum of triplets on the hit drama This Is Us is making her super broody…

MADONNA When Cynthia Scurtis filed for divorce in 2008 she alleged in court papers that A-Rod had “emotionally abandoned” her and their children and his “affair of the heart” with Madonna was the “last straw.” CAMERON DIAZ The pair parted ways in 2011 after a year and a half of dating, and even after their split he called her “one of the greatest human beings I’ve ever met, and just an amazing light.” KATE HUDSON In 2009, the actress was a frequent attendee at Yankees games both in New York and on the road.

THEY WED IN SECRET IN Hawaii in late 2015 after a whirlwind courtship, but the relationship between designer Jodhi Meares and photographer husband Nicholas Tsindos, 17 years her junior, seems to be over just as suddenly. A source told Sydney’s Daily Telegraphthat after 14 months, the two “agreed to separate,” and the Upside label creator has reverted to her maiden name on social media. Although a rep for Meares declined to comment, the split has been blamed on distance. Meares, who is still close to James Packer, her husband from 1999–2002, and whose engagement to rocker Jon Stevens ended dramatically in 2015, divides her time between Los Angeles and Tsindos’s Australian base.…

THERE WERE SMILES APLENTY as Angelina Jolie, looking stylish in a sweeping coat cinched at the waist, and her six children descended on Los Angeles airport on March 11, en route to London. While the children may have been dreaming of another trip to the famous Hamleys Toy Shop (which came true the next day), their mum had more serious matters on her mind. On March 13, the actress and filmmaker, 41, returned to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in London to commemorate the fifth anniversary of the Preventing Sexual Violence Initiative she helped launch in 2012. This time she endorsed the Time to Act initiative, aimed at holding sexual offenders accountable for their war crimes. “When this kind of violence and abuse happens in peacetime, we are absolutely clear…

ACTRESS MELISSA George has denied allegations that she contravened a legal order in trying to take her children out of France in September, six days after a domestic-violence incident involving her partner, French businessman Jean-David Blanc. According to Blanc’s lawyer, Jacqueline Laffont, he has pushed for charges of attempted kidnap. “I deny these allegations and all actions today and always will be in the best interest of my sons,” The Good Wife actress said in an official statement on March 12. George, 40, and her sons, Raphaël, 3, and Solal, 1, had boarded a private jet reportedly lent to her by friend Alexei Kuzmichev, a Russian billionaire, at a small airport near Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport. Border police allegedly led them off the plane, citing a no-fly order obtained…

THINGS ARE ABOUT TO GET CRAZY, according to the sister of Schapelle Corby. Convicted drug smuggler Corby, 39, is less than two months away from being able to leave Bali to return home to her loved ones on the Gold Coast. May 27 marks the official end of Schapelle Corby’s parole and jail term, which will see the former beauty student deported back to Australia.

Surrounded by pals and sister Kim Kardashian West, health-conscious reality star Khloé Kardashian indulged in a rare sweet treat on Feb. 9 as her assistant presented her with a cake in the shape of a Californian driver’s licence. “Look what Khloé got because she got a new passport without her old last name,” said Kim. Written in icing, the cake read: “Happy name change!” with a faux address (“13 Freedom Lane”) plus her new weight: “Skinny bitch.” Since finalising her dragged-out divorce from Lamar Odom in December, Kardashian, 32, has been dating basketball star Tristan Thompson, 25, and enjoying the spoils of a lifestyle overhaul that has already seen her drop a reported 20kg. “I’m in a really good space right now in my life,” she said on Feb. 15. “I feel…

“She screamed, ‘Get off me!’ ”—witness Kim Watson What was meant to be a week-long holiday of romance and fun on the island of Bali last year has turned into an unimaginable ordeal for Byron Bay businesswoman Sara Connor, who on March 13 was found guilty of her role in the killing of police officer Wayan Sudarsa, 53. Sudarsa died on Aug. 17 last year, after an altercation with Connor’s boyfriend, British DJ David Taylor, 34, that left Sudarsa with 42 injuries. “I just [tried to] separate them and that was it,” Connor, 46, said at the time of her arrest.“It’s just a nightmare now.” It just got worse. Connor, who was born in Italy and owns a pasta business in Byron Bay, NSW, where she has two boys aged…
