As has become their annual tradition, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have returned to Australia for a festive visit. But while Keith will combine the trip with work as he’s performing in Sydney for three nights, it’s thought the couple will spend most of their time with Nicole’s family. Now it’s being speculated that Nicole and Keith could use this time to focus on their marriage and even undergo couples therapy during their short break. It might also prompt them to consider a permanent relocation back to Australia in a bid to help strengthen their relationship. The couple have been very open about how rehab and therapy have been invaluable in the musician’s battle with addiction. In 2007, soon after Keith’s second rehab stay, Nicole explained to Vanity Fair: “I’ve…

A marriage breakdown could prove costly for these celebrity couples if they ever divorced! Break-ups are always tough – and when a celebrity is involved, there’s also the matter of dividing up the star’s billions of dollars worth of assets, including their property, cars and bank balances. Reese Witherspoon, who is currently one of Hollywood’s highest-paid actresses with an estimated net worth of $220 million, could find herself having to shell out a small fortune in the event she splits from her agent husband Jim Toth, who is also the father of her youngest son, Tennessee. Similarly, Julia Roberts might have to pay up if she were to separate from her husband of almost two decades, Danny Moder. The actress’ estimated $205 million net worth is likely to be divided…

Can you ever truly know the person you married, pledging your life to in sickness and in health? For nurse Carron Wickens, the answer is no. Her marriage ended in a horrific and bloody struggle that almost killed her. Carron, 58, from Adelaide in South Australia, thought she’d met the love of her life when she crossed paths with George Freeman in 2008. According to Carron, George was charming and she was immediately swept off her feet. “His blue eyes and smile were infectious, and I was oblivious to the warning signs, such as constant phone and text messages, turning up out of the blue, possessiveness, hypersexuality, as well as displaying a keen interest in my financial status,” Carron tells New Idea. “He had gained my trust and it wasn’t…

Every parent I know wishes they had more time to teach their child life skills. How to sew on a button. How to make tacos. How to use the washing machine. But in the hurly-burly of the school year there’s often no time. Just getting the lunch boxes unpacked and teaching basic personal hygiene is often challenge enough. Fortunately, the summer holidays are a time when you can broaden your kids’ skill set and also spend valuable time with them. Families are teams yet increasingly it’s only the parents pulling their weight because it’s too hard or there’s not enough time to show your kids how to do things. Now no-one is suggesting you can’t take to the sun-lounger and knock off that book that’s been sitting on your bedside…

Christmas has come and gone, which means it’s time for the less-fun task of taking down those decorations. Thoughtfully packing away your decorations (as opposed to just chucking them in a box!) will preserve their longevity and ensure you aren’t greeted by a tangled mess when you pull them out next year. LIGHTS Carefully wrapping your lights around a spool-like object will make them easy to unravel next festive season. An A5-sized piece of stiff cardboard from a recycled box is a simple solution. Or, try a clean tin can – you can even drop any spare bulbs along with the plug inside the can. BAUBLES & ORNAMENTS For precious decorations, consider investing in a storage unit like the Kmart Christmas Ornament Storage Box, $9 (kmart.com.au). Otherwise, get creative with…

Any loud noises can cause anxiety in our loyal hounds and other pets, so the sound of fireworks can be particularly alarming. Try these tips to calm your beloved pets. #ON THE DAY, pre-empt any possible jitters by taking your dog on a long walk or play in the park, or play games with your pussycat before the fireworks to tire them out. After a long day’s play and dinner, they may be too worn out to hear the noises. #ON THE NIGHT, keep your pet inside and surrounded by comforting toys and rugs to help distract, and make sure all doors (and fences and gates) are secured. If they do get spooked, they are going to want to get into flight mode and try to run. #DON’T even think…
