Polo may be the sport of kings but it seems appearing at a match to watch a prince with whom you have a romantic entanglement may be the sport of future princesses. First, Lady Diana Spencer attended on Prince Charles as a lass of 19, then Sarah Ferguson (aka Fergie) caught many a chukka before marrying Prince Andrew, and Kate Middleton also ticked off her princess-in-the-making to-do list when she watched Prince William wield a mallet six years before they wed. With Meghan Markle making her first public appearance as Prince Harry’s girlfriend at a polo match at Ascot on May 6 (see p. 20), will she follow in a right royal tradition?

WHEN CHELSEA O’DONNELL RAN off with and married a plumber 12 years her senior, her relationship with her mother, comedian Rosie O’Donnell, 55, was already strained. Now Chelsea, 19, has spoken about their many stand-offs, telling the Daily Mail that “verbally abusive” Rosie had almost hit her with a wine bottle (“She was drinking, as she did frequently”) during a 2015 argument over a tattoo, then reported her missing after Chelsea ran away. But they had later reconciled, with the comedian captioning a photo of them in August, “What a difference a year makes. #hopelives.” However, things are once again fraught. Rosie responded to the interview by saying Chelsea, who was adopted aged 2 months, “has been in and out of hospitals most of her life. Born addicted to heroin ... As…

Studies show the average adult needs 7–9 hours sleep every night, though it does vary. The key measure is the number of hours necessary for us to wake refreshed and feel energised throughout the day. How does sleep impact our health and wellbeing? Research indicates that when compared to sleepdeprived people, well-slept people are more likely to have better memory, concentration and creativity; they maintain a healthy weight, metabolism and mood levels; have a higher level of immunity and athletic performance, and live longer. What are the stages of sleep? Initially you go into light sleep and then descend into deep sleep. Depending on how tired you are, you will be in deep sleep within 10–25 minutes. During the light stages of sleep we can be easily woken, but in deep…

CATCH ALL THE FILMS ON FOXTEL’S ALIEN VS PREDATOR POP-UP CHANNEL (STARTS FRI., MAY 12, 6 AM). MOVIE 1 ALIEN: COVENANT STARRING: Michael Fassbender, Katherine Waterston You’d think after five Alien movies, space crews would know better than to poke at strange things or go off on their own. But, for fright’s sake, thankfully they haven’t. Set a decade after 2012’s Prometheus, Covenant has Fassbender once more playing a creepy robot and humans are still in search of a safe haven, but not finding it. Hey, if it’s scary good, why change?

“I wake up in the morning and I stretch and do my 300 to 600 sit-ups, depending on how much time I have.” Tyson Beckford’s daily routine is built around being built. “Mama don’t sleep over on the first date.” Jennifer Lopez makes it clear that her new baseball-playing beau, Alex Rodriguez, had to wait before rounding her bases. “Relationships made me want to vomit. This crept up on me.” Margot Robbie was more sickened than lovesick before meeting husband Thomas Ackerley. “I remember trying to get into clubs when I was just about to turn 18. They’d ask my age ... I was like, ‘I can’t do it.’ ” Emma Watson was no good at being bad.…

THREE MONTHS AFTER KRISTEN Stewart confirmed herself as “so gay” on Saturday Night Live, her relationship with model Stella Maxwell has gone to the next level. “They have moved in together,” a source close to the 26-year-old Victoria’s Secret beauty told Us Weekly. According to the source, Maxwell, who has an apartment in New York, “spends all of the time” at Stewart’s four-bedroom home in Los Angeles. “They’re both so busy with work,” says the source, “but try to be together when they can.” An insider first confirmed their relationship to WHO’s US sister magazine People in December, noting that the pair “are having fun.” Stewart, 27, who was in an on-off relationship from 2009– 2013 with her fellow Twilight star Robert Pattinson, told E! News she was “utterly proud” of coming out on SNL on Feb. 6: “The only…

THE CRYSTAL The decorative gem on the sword’s pommel is a favourite of Hunnam’s. “It took me back to my childhood,” he says. “I would spend my time whittling a big log into a sword. I was always taking glue and putting marbles on top.” THE RUNES King Arthur enthusiasts won’t be able to read the letters embedded in the blade, but they know the message. “Take me up, cast me away” is the inscription often found on Excalibur, but King Arthur uses a written language created specifically for the film. THE HILT The sword’s handle area was the most difficult aspect to design, according to Tim Wildgoose, one of the film’s armourers, because director Ritchie wanted to avoid the bejewelled look of previous iterations. As a result, Excalibur was…

The world knows the story of Judy Garland: the child star and self-destructive show stopper who died at age 47 from an accidental barbiturate overdose. But Sid Luft, the third of her five husbands, saw it all from the inside. Married to Garland from 1952 to 1965, the combative Luft orchestrated her famous comeback concerts and fell in love with her vulnerability. After their marriage ended amid allegations of abuse, he began a memoir, which was left unfinished when he died in 2005. Found more than a year ago in a box among his archives, it has been published as Judy and I, excerpted here. The book sheds new light on Garland’s triumphs and her desperate decline. “My dad loved her,” their son, Joey Luft, 61, tells WHO’s Liz McNeil. “He…

I n April 1990, more than 34 million people in the US alone tuned in for the premiere of Twin Peaks, maverick film director David Lynch’s first television series, an endeavour co-creator Mark Frost described as “Blue Velvet meets Peyton Place.” Ostensibly a crime drama with FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle McLachlan) and Sheriff Harry S. Truman (Michael Ontkean) teaming up to solve the murder of a homecoming queen (Sheryl Lee), the show was really a soap opera writ large and charged with symbolism. Beautifully shot scenes of sex, violence, humour and horror set the template for future shows such as The X-Files and Lost. Now, as Lynch revisits the world of Twin Peaks in a sequel, we look back at the influential pop-culture touchstone. n By Cynthia Wang Twin Peaks’ premieres on Mon., May 22, at…

WHEN RICHARD SIMMONS RETREATED from public life after teaching a fitness class in February 2014, he became the subject of both tabloid speculation and a popular podcast, Missing Richard Simmons, by former Daily Show producer Dan Taberski. The focus on his whereabouts, it turned out, raised more questions than answers. But on May 8, in a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, Simmons, 68, shed light on his withdrawal from society. Charging American Media Inc., owner of The National Enquirer and Radar Online, with libel and invasion of privacy, the suit states that former associate Mauro Oliveira had “blackmailed, extorted and stalked” Simmons for several years “with the intention of destroying his career and reputation.” The suit alleges that Oliveira sold stories to The National Enquirer, including claims that Simmons was in frail health, was being…

SOFIA VERGARA HAS defended her marriage to Joe Manganiello after a US magazine claimed their union had ended due to an alleged affair. “The editor of this magazine is an idiot,” posted the actress, 44, on May 4, with the offending cover and the hashtags #Starmagazinebullies and #goinventsh*itaboutyourmother. “Big surprise, everyone, but Star created a fake story,” posted Manganiello, 40. “Don’t buy their garbage.”…

BABY JESSICA >30 YEARS LATER After her famous rescue, a quiet life For more than 58 hours in 1987, the world watched transfixed as hundreds of rescuers—paramedics, police officers, drilling experts and contractors—worked feverishly against the clock to save the life of tiny 18-month-old Jessica McClure, who had fallen 6.7m down a well in her aunt’s backyard in Midland, Texas. They cried with her teenage parents, Cissy and Chip, as they tried to keep her singing the “Winnie the Pooh” song to make sure she was alive. And they cheered when Jessica was miraculously brought out alive. Though the now married mother of two has no memory of her ordeal, she understands how millions of strangers became invested in her rescue—and in her life. “I had God on my side…

Austin Hatch was 8 years old and flying home with his family from Walloon Lake, Michigan, when the unthinkable happened. The family’s small plane crashed in Fort Wayne, Indiana, killing Austin’s mother and two siblings. “My dad threw me out of the plane and saved my life,” he says. Then in June 2011 the unthinkable happened again. Austin was the lone survivor of another small-plane crash, which killed his father, Stephen, 46, an anaesthetist, and stepmother, Kim, and left him with severe brain injuries and a punctured lung. He was in a coma for two months. Although he has some ongoing cognitive issues, Austin, now 22 and at the University of Michigan, refuses to let those tragedies define him. “Whatever happens to us, we have a choice,” he says. “We…

F or more than seven hours, authorities hid in the woods surrounding the tiny cabin in the mountains of remote Northern California. Witnesses had reported seeing 15-year-old Elizabeth Thomas and her highschool teacher, Tad Cummins, 50, in the cold, desolate spot on April 20. When the pair finally came outside, law enforcement made their move. Cummins, who had two loaded handguns inside the cabin, surrendered without a fight and Thomas, who was just four metres away from him, “was emotional,” says Siskiyou County Sheriff Jon Lopey. “Sometimes she was crying; sometimes she was silent, stoic. We recognised that she had been traumatised.” As authorities began the task of securing the crime scene, Thomas asked if she could have the rocks she had gathered in every location she had been over the…

At 17 years old, Lianna Perdis has created her own beauty line, walked in New York Fashion Week and graced magazine covers. The Australian-born, Athens-based beauty remains refreshingly level-headed and optimistic about her future in the fashion and beauty industry, with a seat firmly set alongside her father, Napoleon Perdis.

LAST GUILTY PLEASURE Just yesterday I had two glasses of champagne. I’ll have indulgences because I work really hard and I have no time off. Did I mention I have three kids? [2-year-old twins Bowie Ezio and Cy Aridio and a newborn son, Zen.] So if I want something, I get it. LAST TIME I DANCED The last time I danced was before my pregnancy. That was the last time I went to a club and I danced like it was 1999. I’m from New York; I love any kind of house music. LAST TIME I CRIED This morning. I cry every day. I don’t know why. If I see something, if somebody says something, if I get goosebumps, I cry. I can’t even watch commercials anymore because I cry…
