Who doesn’t love a summer getaway? It might be winter Down Under, but for those lucky ducks headed off on a Euro summer trip, we’ve got you covered (page 51). Plus, for those staying closer to home, the best local holiday spots that feel like you’ve jetted off to Spain, France or Italy – without the 20-hour flight (page 66). While music fans might be eagerly waiting for Rihanna to drop her next album, she’s busy winning over her kids with a starring role in new movie Smurfs (page 24). Also hitting cinemas, Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey absolutely loved working together on Jurassic World Rebirth (page 34). On the smaller screen, we take a look at the rise of internet sensation Amelia Dimoldenberg and her Chicken Shop Date series…

Orlando Bloom has travelled to Australia to join fiancée Katy Perry, who has been in the country on the local leg of her global The Lifetimes Tour, amid increasing speculation there’s tension in their relationship. Since the actor’s arrival Down Under, the couple haven’t been seen together in public, however he was spotted in Perth on June 22 with their 4-year-old daughter, Daisy. His trip comes shortly after reports that the famous couple, who got engaged in 2019, are gearing up for a serious talk about the future of their relationship. The tension was allegedly spurred by Bloom, 48, who is said to have disapproved of Perry’s Blue Origin space flight. “He told her the whole thing looked ridiculous,” a source revealed to the Daily Mail. Apparently, the poor response…

With just as much player talent in the stands as on the court, it was hard for tennis fans to know where to look when Carlos Alcaraz competed in London at the 2025 Queen’s Club Championships on June 21. But following the match, the handsome Spanish star let Emma Raducanu know how much he appreciated her support after the British athlete had cheered him on from the balcony with a big smile on her face. “I am just glad that she came to support me, to watch my match,” he said. “Yeah, I think it was great having her in the stands.” While the pair have been mates since they rose up through the ranks together in 2021, tongues in the tennis world are now wagging over the possibility their…

MATT DAMON The 54-year-old got into the best shape of his life for film The Odyssey – and fans got to reap the rewards when he visited Favignana, Italy, for a yacht day between filming commitments. DELTA GOODREM And the bride wore blue! The singer, 40, donned a Lapis one-piece to party by the sea after celebrating her wedding to long-time love and musical collaborator Matthew Copley in Malta recently. SOPHIE TURNER A trip away for a friend’s bachelorette celebrations was just what the doctor ordered for the 29-year-old actress, who posted that she wanted to stay in the Maldives “forever”. DUA LIPA Sydney was the singer’s destination of choice to soak up some sun back in March while Down Under for her Radical Optimism Tour. Matching her star-print bikini…

She’s the mother hen of beloved internet show Chicken Shop Date. Amelia Dimoldenberg, armed with nuggets, endearing awkwardness and a fierce deadpan stare, has brought a fresh take to the celebrity interview, peeling back the PR sheen to show celebrities in a rare and more relatable light. Now the go-to girl for hosting Hollywood red carpets, with everything from the Oscars to MTV under her belt, she’s built a reputation for asking questions that catch people off guard and don’t fit the usual media mould. She’s doing something more unorthodox and self-aware – and it works. As actor Andrew Garfield told her in November 2022 during GQ’s Men of the Year red carpet, “It’s weird what you do. Weird as in good. Very specific and unique.” As he spoke to…

MIKEY MADISON The year got off to a very good start for Madison after she won Best Actress at the Oscars in March for her breakout role in Anora – a relatively unheard of feat in Hollywood. But since fulfilling her media duties for the movie and accompanying award, the 26-year-old Los Angeles native has been relatively quiet. It’s rumoured she received an offer to star alongside Ryan Gosling in an upcoming Star Wars film and a Resident Evil reboot, which would have no doubt garnered the star big pay cheques and many adoring new fans. However, she is said to have turned them both down. Her newest venture? An indie thriller, Reptilia, which tells the story of a seductive mermaid that lures a dentist into the dark and murky…

LOCAL SUPPORT On the day she was found not guilty, her supporters celebrated, chanting, “Karen is free!” as she exited the courthouse. Day after day during the trial, many had shown up with signs claiming she had been framed. After nearly four years and two trials, the nightmare that started for Karen Read in early 2022 has come to an end. On June 18, the 45-year-old Boston woman was acquitted by a jury of the second-degree murder of her partner, John O’Keefe. “No-one has fought harder for justice for John O’Keefe than I have,” she said in a speech on the courthouse steps afterwards while flanked by family and her solicitors. “Than I have, and my team. Thank you.” Around 6am on January 29, 2022, 46-year-old old police officer John…

There’s nothing quite like the feeling of being on holiday – the sun is shining, your out-of-office is on and the only appointments being made are for the spa or dinner reservations. However, if you had a particularly dopamine-inducing holiday, you might end up returning to normal life with a case of the post-holiday blues. Also dubbed post-vacation blues or post-travel depression, the post-holiday blues refer to a temporary dip in mood, sometimes leading to sadness, anxiety and depression, after returning from a vacay. But just how common is returning from holidays feeling low? And how do we know when to seek help? ARE THE POST-HOLIDAY BLUES NORMAL? Well, good news – psychologist Carly Dober reassures us that a post-holiday comedown is actually a good thing. “Post-holiday blues are very…

As if long-haul flights weren’t challenging enough – cue the person kicking the back of our seats – we often step off a plane with skin feeling worse than when we boarded.

It turns out that money can’t fix all problems. This is the lesson that billionaire businessman Jeff Bezos, 61, and his fiancée, Lauren Sánchez, 55, learned the hard way in the countdown to their big day after protests forced their lavish Italian wedding to be moved. Following weeks of public anger over the Amazon founder’s plans to restrict a popular nightlife spot in central Venice to invite-only access for his and Sánchez’s wedding ceremony, the nuptials have been relocated to a more private area. The new venue in Arsenale is surrounded by water and impossible to reach once connecting bridges are raised, ensuring it should remain protest-free. “The news that Bezos has run away from the Misericordia is a great victory for us,” Tommaso Cacciari, a leader of the No…

Deborra-lee Furness is apparently steering well clear of the dating pool, with an insider telling the Daily Mail she “has gotten offers to go out and honestly, she is just not interested in this right now”. The actress famously split from ex-husband Hugh Jackman, 56, in 2023 after a nearly 30-year union. Since then, Jackman has confirmed his new relationship with fellow actress Sutton Foster, 50, who he had known for close to 20 years before they coupled up. “For decades, Deborra-lee was certain that she had found her lifelong companion,” the source continued, adding that the 69-year-old “never thought in a million years that she would be here, at this stage in her life, single”. Despite this, it seems the actress is working on healing herself after the messy…

Having gone through one of the most public divorces in Hollywood history with ex-wife Angelina Jolie, it would be understandable for Brad Pitt to take a more guarded approach to his romance with Ines de Ramon. But according to insiders, it was the actor’s jewellery designer girlfriend who applied the breaks when it came to their joint red carpet appearances. Previously married to The Vampire Diaries actor Paul Wesley, de Ramon was no stranger to the spotlight when she struck up a romance with Pitt in 2022. But following her divorce, which was finalised last year, the brunette beauty became wary of being perceived as just Pitt’s plus-one. “In the beginning, she refused to join him because she didn’t want to be seen as one of those girls that is…

Wearing the traditional dress of the Faroe Islands, King Frederik and Queen Mary took a moment together to relax before greeting the cheering locals. The Danish monarchs, accompanied by their youngest daughter, Princess Josephine, 14, set sail for a three-day visit to the region that commenced on June 11. “I was 10 years old when I first experienced the Faroe Islands with my parents and my brother,” Frederik said in a speech marking his first visit to the Danish territory since he became King in early 2024. “Wearing national costume and a good dose of shyness.” The visit, made onboard the Royal Yacht Dannebrog, could not have been done in greater style. The 78-metre luxury ship is one of only two official royal ships left in the world. The vessel…

Sophie Kovic’s son, Archie, had just started school and – in quite a radical request for 2016 – he was asked not to bring any plastic in his lunch box and that included the lunch box itself. “I was very challenged by that,” Sophie, 38, from NSW’s Northern Rivers tells WHO. “He also didn’t want any food touching other food and I was racking my brain how to do that. One day, I sent in a glass jar with hummus and got a message from the teacher saying she knew I was trying, but glass wasn’t allowed in school.” But while Sophie was sure there must be a practical solution, all her searching didn’t find a suitable one. Running a successful app development company that didn’t bring her the joy…

Just booked a flight set for European summer? Congratulations, everyone stuck in the southern hemisphere is really happy for you. Before you jet off for sunny adventures and Aperols by the sea, it’s worth taking a moment to consider your health. Whether it’s the recycled air on the plane, the germs circulating in that cramped metal box or unfamiliar bugs at your destination, getting sick while travelling is more common than you’d think. And while it might feel like it’s something out of your control, there are steps you can take to stay healthy and happy on holidays. As Professor Nick Zwar, chair of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners Specific Interests Travel Medicine group says, a little planning goes a long way. SMART SHOT It’s safe to say…

In dramedy Hal & Harper, Cooper Raiff, 28, plays one half of a pair of co-dependent siblings alongside Lili Reinhart. Now adults, the pair return to their childhood home to deal with traumas of the past, along with the help of their father, Michael (Mark Ruffalo). You cast Lili as Harper alongside yourself as Hal.

Congratulations are in order for Kate Upton, who has welcomed her second child with husband Justin Verlander. The Sports Illustrated model, 33, gave birth to a son named Bellamy Brooks on June 19, a representative for Upton and her San Francisco Giants pitcher husband, 42, confirmed to People magazine. The pair, who tied the knot in 2017, are already parents to daughter Genevieve, who they welcomed in 2018. “She loves to dance and have a good time, and she loves to be in the moment,” Upton has said of the 6-year-old. “I think she gets that from me.” Upton is yet to share photos of the new baby – and fans also won’t be seeing the model posting pics from the gym, having previously spoken about resisting the pressures to…

The flame has offically burnt out on Chicago Fire star Dermot Mulroney’s marriage. After 15 years with Prima Apollinaare, previously named Tharita Cutulle, Mulroney has signed a petition to dissolve his marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences” in court documents. The 61-year-old has asked for joint legal and physical custody of his two daughters, Mabel Ray, 17, and Sally June, 15, who he shares with Apollinaare, 52. The court documents also revealed that Mulroney has asked to terminate Apollinaare’s request for spousal support and instead put his own request in. Despite this, an insider revealed to People magazine that “no-one is asking for anything, and no-one is denying anything”. “They are not arguing over the children nor money,” the insider continued. “They used mediators, not lawyers, as they are friends and this…

After months of speculation by followers online, Tammy Hembrow has revealed her separation from Love Island alum Matt Zukowski, 29, after just seven months of marriage. The announcement came via Instagram stories, with the 31-year-old posting a tear-fuelled video, while Zukowski posted a statement on his social media. “Obviously when you marry someone, you do it thinking that it is going to be forever and I blame no-one but myself,” Hembrow said. She also showed concern for her children, Wolf, 10, Saskia, 8, and Posy, 3 – none of whom she shares with Zukowski – alluding that she worries about how this may affect them, “I don’t care about me, I know I’ll be OK. I feel awful.”…

CAREER HEIGHTS Sure, it was scary returning to Broadway for the first time in 25 years, but actress Jean Smart, whose one-woman show Call Me Izzy will run for 12 weeks until August 17, refuses to be fuelled by fear. “I don’t like fear. It’s really bad. It feels terrible,” she told People magazine when the play opened on June 12. “It’s like getting on a roller-coaster. No, no, thank you. I’m good … I wasn’t 100 per cent sure I could retain 75 pages, but now I feel very confident about it.” Smart, 73, launched her acting career on stage, going on to star as Marlene Dietrich in the 1981 biographical play Piaf. She later earned a Tony Award nomination when she starred in a 2000 revival of The…

Andy Lee is the epitome of a modern Aussie larrikin. Even though he’s cool, worldly and poised to marry an oh-so-chic lifestyle entrepreneur, when the 44-year-old opens his mouth, he has everyone in stitches. His signature sense of humour has spilled from the radio airwaves and TV into children’s books – the bestselling Do Not Open This Book series – and now back onto the box again with that beloved series getting its own TV adaptation, Do Not Watch This Show. Arriving on the ABC this week, the animation features the chaotic and emotionally fragile…

It’s taken 124 years, but for the first time in history, the Australian Treasury is being led by a woman. Given the field of economics is dominated by men, Jenny Wilkinson’s recent appointment as treasury secretary is groundbreaking enough in itself, but, coupled with the fact that women also lead the country’s other two most powerful economic institutions, it’s a sign of changing times. Michele Bullock heads the Reserve Bank as governor and Danielle Wood is chair of the Productivity Commission – and while women economists are still in the minority in universities and in the public and private sector, the leadership story is one worth celebrating. WHO takes a closer look at the women now in charge of Australia’s economy… Jenny Wilkinson FINANCE SECRETARY Described by a colleague as…

Ally Langdon is no stranger to tricky topics and “bloody good journalism”, as per her TV Week Silver Logie acceptance speech in 2024. And there are plenty of divisive discussions to be had in the new season of Parental Guidance, which looks at the biggest issues Australian parents are dealing with. The A Current Affair host and mum-of-two, 46, is once again hosting the topical series alongside Dr Justin Coulson, demonstrating the versatility that has seen her nominated for the Gold Logie for the first time this year.
