It feels like some of our favourite celebrities are marking some pretty significant personal milestones at the moment. Rihanna is expecting her first child with rapper beau ASAP Rocky and has announced her pregnancy by debuting her baby bump with an oh-so-cool photo shoot on the streets of New York City. Check out the stunning pics and why she finally felt the time was right to have the child she’s longed for on page 14. Princess Mary celebrates her 50th birthday on February 5. She truly has lived a fairytale life so far. I mean, it’s still hard to believe that she met a real-life Danish prince in an Aussie pub, right? It’s been quite the journey for Mary and in honour of her special day, we take a look…

While he didn’t win his final tennis match against Sam Schröder on January 27, Dylan Alcott is still a champ in the eyes of the world. Following the match, the wheelchair star read out a text from tennis great Andy Murray. “I don’t know if I’ve articulated that well but you’re an absolute rock star and inspiration. Thanks for everything that you’ve done,” the 31-year-old read. The 2022 Australian of the Year is retiring after being the first tennis player to achieve a golden slam last year.…

Macaulay Culkin never has to be Home Alone again! The child star is engaged to his long-time love, Brenda Song. The couple, who welcomed baby boy Dakota last April, confirmed the news on January 25 when Song stepped out in Beverly Hills wearing an incredible diamond ring on her left hand. “Brenda Song’s engagement ring is magnificent, and the large diamond featured in the ring makes a huge statement on her finger,”jewellery expert Maxwell Stone told Marie Claire. “The single-stone ring looks to feature a six to eight-carat diamond, which could be round or cushion cut.” There’s so much love between the Richie Rich icon, 41, and his 33-year-old bride-to-be. To celebrate his birthday, she shared a gorgeous tribute to Instagram calling herself the “luckiest person in the world”.…

Since the start of the new year, a glowing Rihanna has been snapped several times out and about with her rapper boyfriend ASAP Rocky. Looking in love, she’s hit hotspots all around New York City while rocking a parade of on-trend outerwear – oversized bomber jackets, leather coats and a Balenciaga puffer – which have stylishly kept hidden her exciting secret: she’s pregnant! Finally ready to announce her big news, Rihanna, wearing a bump-baring hot pink archive Chanel coat, was conveniently “papped” by fashion-friendly photographer Miles Diggs with Rocky in his hometown of Harlem on January 28. “It was important for Rihanna to make this announcement on her terms. She couldn’t really hide it any longer!” a source told Entertainment Tonight. “They enjoyed keeping the pregnancy a secret for as…

He’s best known from his two stints in the MasterChef kitchen (in 2018 and 2020), but Khanh Ong is ticking off another reality TV bucket list item – participating in Australian Survivor: Blood v Water. “I’m such a fan of this show,” Ong, 30, tells WHO. “I’ve watched every single Australian and American season.” His beautician sister Amy, 24, is going along for the ride, too – not that her competitive brother plans on going easy on her! “Physically, I’ll beat her at a lot of challenges but, mentally, I don’t know. Amy is super-intelligent and she’ll smash me at endurance.” Ong says his social game and, of course, cooking skills will help him go far in the brutal comp. “I’m a feeder and a provider and I don’t like…

Sharon Gless is well aware that if people today know anything about her almost 50-year career (which includes nine hit TV series, three starring roles on London’s West End, two Emmys and one steamy turn on the big screen with Michael Douglas), it’s that she starred in the 1980s TV police drama Cagney & Lacey alongside Tyne Daly. “I was the blonde,” Gless, now 78, says dryly. She’s a woman who’s used to labels. A child of Hollywood – “Grandpa” Neil S McCarthy was attorney to the likes of Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant – she heard “darling, boring, fat … too sexy, too unsuitable, too angry, too dykey” and more as she worked her way up from a $186-a-week contract player for Universal Studios to trailblazing roles (feminist Christine…

Melbourne academic Kylie Moore-Gilbert, who spent more than two years jailed in Iran on a charge of espionage, before being freed in November 2020, knows firsthand just how tough it would be for Robert Pether in a Baghdad jail. “I’m sure his jail cell is every bit as bad, or possibly worse, than my own in Iran,” she tells WHO. “Our officials need to communicate to their Iraqi counterparts that Robert’s detention is unjustified and that we expect nothing less than his immediate release,” says Moore-Gilbert, 34, a Middle East expert. “As Robert doesn’t speak Arabic, he isn’t able to communicate with his jailers or the other prisoners. Not knowing what is going on, not being able to tell prison guards when he needs assistance or medical treatment, is extraordinarily…

It was one of the happiest moments of our lives,” Alexander Cardinale recalls of those first magical, time-stands-still minutes after his wife, Daphna, gave birth to a healthy baby girl on September 24, 2019, at a Los Angeles hospital. The couple’s long-held dream of having a second child after years of fertility struggles had finally come true through in vitro fertilisation, a miracle they’d celebrated from the moment Daphna found out she was pregnant. Yet as a physician placed the couple’s nearly 4.5kg daughter on Daphna’s chest, a dark thought crossed Alexander’s mind: the baby looked nothing like him or Daphna. “It was sort of a primal reaction,” he says, “but I shook it off and cut the umbilical cord.” Looking back on that day, Alexander and Daphna wish they…

Helena Bonham Carter The actress swears by this oil before bed. It contains trans-retinol and hydrating oils to reduce the appearance of wrinkles while hydrating dry, dull skin.

If you thought sagging skin on your cheeks, eyes and jowls could only be fixed with a facelift, we’re here to tell you a much less scary alternative is here – and it involves threads. Not the sewing kind of course! Here to tell us more is registered nurse and clinical training manager at EnVogue Skin, Stacey Sengos, letting us in on the treatment taking the beauty world by storm. What is this trending new treatment? The Matrix PDO Mono Threads treatment is a minimally invasive method of tightening and thickening your skin. It ultimately provides an improvement of fine lines and wrinkles by gradually stimulating natural collagen production. Matrix PDO Threads are made from a colourless, biodegradable synthetic polymer material called polydioxanone (PDO), which has been widely used as…

1. INVEST IN TAILORING Having your clothes fit you perfectly makes a big difference to the look of the item; nothing looks better than a garment that’s precisely measured to you. If you’re on a budget, I recommend shopping at stores like Zara and Uniqlo and then tailoring their garments to fit. This will make a $100 jacket look like it actually cost you $1000. 2. EXPERIMENT Don’t be afraid to experiment with colours and patterns. Fashion is meant to be fun, so have fun with it!…

CHANGE THINGS UP The smallest of changes can make a huge difference in increasing employment opportunities for people with disabilities. But many Aussies aren’t aware that they’re available. The Australian Government’s Employment Assistance Fund (EAF) can help to provide funding for a range of adjustments in the workplace. “Our internal research shows that half of modifications cost less than $1000, and that many adjustments can be made at no cost at all,” Daniel Valiente-Riedl, general manager of JobAccess, says. Visit jobaccess.gov.au MADE WITH KOMBUCHA Many of us love kombucha for its tummy-loving benefits, but this superfood isn’t just for drinking. Made With Kombucha has substituted vinegar for kombucha in an innovative and flavoursome range of products, including sauces, relishes, dressings and olives. WEIGHTED HULA HOOPS It began as a trend…

Celebrating 25 years of resilience from a small Auckland cottage to global success, Erica Crawford, co-founder of internationally renowned wine brand Kim Crawford, shares how she went from scientist to owner of the largest New Zealand wine brand by volume in both the US and Canada. And it all starts with a love story. Tell us a little bit about your journey … I started as a young scientist in the laboratory at Cape Town University’s medical school. I think I lacked the tenacity and focus required in the field because I got distracted by life. I met a Kiwi boy named Kim at a wine event in the Cape Winelands, one thing led to another and a few years later I found myself in New Zealand. It was the…

Last moment of self-care Once a week I take a hot bath with Epsom salt and essential oils. Massages and facials are my favourite. I really wish I was a professional athlete, only so I could have a physical therapist work on me every day. Last date night My husband, Andrew [Frankel], and I went to dinner in Chelsea and then a Broadway show last week. It’s so nice to be out and going to theatre again. Ordering takeaway is not exciting for me at all! Last thing I discovered about myself Growing up, I was a competitive swimmer. When I swim at home, I think I’m really good. Then I go swimming in a public pool, and it’s like, “Oh, I’m really not.” It’s those little moments of humility.…

Ellidy Pullin is so grateful of her dear friend’s suggestion that she retrieve her late husband Alex “Chumpy” Pullin’s sperm after his shock death in July 2020. “I don’t know where I’d be if that hadn’t happened,” she tells The Australian Women’s Weekly, more than three months after the arrival of their gorgeous baby girl Minnie Alex Pullin. If anything, Ellidy tells the publication that her little girl – who’s just like her dad – has pulled her through her unimaginable grief. “I understood that there would be more grief with having a baby,” she explains. “There would be all the birthdays and milestones [Chumpy] would be missing. But then I thought, ‘It’s going to be hard anyway.’ And I didn’t want Chump to just die and be gone. I…

With her new movie Marry Me coming out this month, is Jennifer Lopez’s art imitating her life? The 52-year-old star and her prodigal boyfriend Ben Affleck stepped out for a dinner date in Beverly Hills on January 30 looking like a blushing bride and gallant groom-to-be. Clutching his hand ever so tightly, Lopez beamed while managing to conceal her ring finger from view. Something to hide, Bennifer? With rumours rife that he’s already gone down on bended knee, after ending their first engagement back in 2004, there’s no going back this time. “He’s told pretty much everyone that he lost Jen once before, and he’s not going to let that happen again. It’s meant to be, and if you see them together, there’s no doubt about it,” an insider close…

Rihanna endured a tumultuous relationship with R’n’B singer Chris Brown, whom she dated on and off from 2007. On the night of the 51st Grammy Awards in 2009, Brown was arrested for violently assaulting the star and sentenced to community service and domestic violence counselling, and Rihanna was granted a restraining order. She also dated baseball star Matt Kemp and had a quick fling with rapper Drake before dating Saudi billionaire Hassan Jameel.…

Megan Fox The mum-of-three has denied surgery rumours but admits she’s not against it – for the right reasons, that is. “I would encourage anyone [who wants plastic surgery] to first speak with a therapist,” she told Allure magazine in 2012. With Fox, 35, spotted leaving the offices of plastic surgeon-to-the-stars Dr Jason Diamond in late 2021, it seems she might know firsthand about those amazing treatments. Meanwhile, specialists from the Bay Area Aesthetic Surgery say they’ve noticed a “subtle difference in her nose and a definite difference in her breast size” over the years. Whatever she has or hasn’t done, she’s looking fab! Kristin Davis And just like that, the Sex and the City star sparked plastic surgery whispers when she debuted quite a different look upon her recent…

Born into an “ordinary” family Down Under, the early life of Mary Donaldson couldn’t get much further away from the upbringing of her future husband, Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark. But it appears that joining the oldest surviving constitutional monarchy in the world may have always been a part of her destiny. Shortly before meeting her “Prince Charming” in 2000, the then-28-year-old marketing executive visited a tarot card reader who told Mary she’d soon fall in love with a man from overseas, move abroad and become famous. “So I left there and thought, ‘Well, yes, that was a lot of fun, but nothing more,’’’ she recalled to Danish royal biographer Jens Anderson. Twenty-two years later, the princess has barely put a foot wrong. And as she prepares to celebrate her…

In 1992, five years before he dated Princess Diana, Egyptian-born playboy Dodi Fayed (inset) rented Gless’s Malibu beach house while the actress was starring in Misery at London’s Criterion Theatre. Dodi had a girlfriend he hooked up with in California who moved into my house with her large German shepherds, despite his having signed my contract stipulating that no pets were allowed. The 45-kilogram dogs urinated all over, shredded the retro fabrics on my furniture and scratched the floors. The Berber carpeting became flea-infested. My rose garden was trampled flat. There were food stains and spills that were never cleaned up. Dodi’s father sent me a cheque to repair the damages. In a twist of fate, upon my arrival in London, I met Prince Charles and Princess Diana. Charles leaned…

The Cardinales’ legal complaint against the California Center for Reproductive Health (above), Dr Eliran Mor and In Vitro Tech, a lab owned by Mor, states that the couple were unaware of the lab’s “allegedly extremely chequered past”, including its mislabelling of embryology materials and losing or switching genetic samples. These alleged mistakes “created a substantial risk” of errors, according to the Cardinales’ claim. The clinic declined to comment to People on the allegations.…

Ever thought you’ve absolutely nailed your makeup, only to later catch a glimpse of yourself in a photo and realise it doesn’t look as fab on film as it did in real life? We’ve all been there. There’s a fine art to photo-proofing your face and you’re about to find out how. PREPARATION MAKES PERFECT “Skincare is the most important step of makeup,” says Australian makeup artist and founder of Kitology, Penny Antuar.

WHAT IS IT? The interactive treadmill transporting you all over the globe. THE VERDICT “I’m chatting to a friend and when they ask what I’ve been up to, I tell them I hiked up the side of Mt Fuji on my lunch break and yesterday I went for a power walk amongst the Pyramids of Egypt. Then I explain that I just got the Proform Pro Treadmill 9000 to try out. “It’s solid gym-grade equipment that’s easy and fun to use. The beautiful touch screen allows you to interact with the iFit program controlling the treadmill. Free for the first month, it requires a subscription but costs a fraction of yearly gym memberships. There are a variety of constantly updated workouts such as walks, hikes, runs, stretching, yoga, strength and…

WHAT IS IT? The water weight that’s taking Hollywood by storm. THE VERDICT “I’m a bit of a latecomer to strength training and love the sense of power that it gives me. But it’s expensive to have a suite of weights at home and they are anything but portable. So I was keen to try the HydroCore bag – especially after seeing an Insta post of actress Kate Hudson swinging one around her head. The best thing about the bag is that you can easily adjust the weight to suit whatever exercise you are doing, at whatever level. The fact that the sloshing water also creates instability means that your core gets a real workout at the same time.” COST: $199. Head to Instagram at @hydrocore_australia for more information on…

Emma Roberts has a message for those who compare her to her lookalike aunt, leading lady Julia Roberts: stop it. When asked by Tatler magazine whether she’s ever felt burdened by pressure to live up to her famous aunt’s accolade-laden career, the 30-year-old actress replied:“I never aspired to be her.” A career littered with lead roles, Academy Awards, red carpets and riches, it’s hard to believe anyone in show business doesn’t aspire to that. However, Emma insists she has nothing but love for Julia, who enjoyed taking Emma along to her movie sets when she was a child. “I love her so much, I love her work, but I’m just doing my own thing,”Emma says, recalling how she’d“write the wardrobe tags and organise the makeup brushes and watch how they…

Nick Cannon is going to be a father again – and for the eighth time, no less. Did we mention it will be his fifth baby in less than two years? The 41-year-old announced he’s expecting a new baby boy with model Bre Tiesi on his talk show this week. The US Masked Singer host admitted he knew Tiesi was pregnant just prior to the tragic December death of his 5-month-old baby boy Zen, whom he shared with ex Alyssa Scott. “As everyone knows, I have a lot of children and I love them all dearly, sincerely,”Cannon told his audience.“Every single one of my children are just as special as the other.” Cannon and Tiesi also threw an elaborate gender reveal party in Malibu on January 30 to share the…

On February 6, Queen Elizabeth will make history as she becomes the first British monarch to reach her platinum jubilee. The date will mark an incredible 70 years since she ascended the throne following the death of her dad, George VI, in 1952. While she will mark the day privately, an official four-day celebration has been planned in June in her honour. Harry and Meghan are reported to have told palace officials they are “keeping their diaries open” in case they are invited to any official events. Some fear if the Sussexes don’t score an invite, they will try and upstage the Queen, 95. Their daughter Lilibet, who was named after Her Majesty but hasn’t yet met her great-grandmother, will turn 1 on June 4, during the official celebrations.“I wouldn’t…

In June 2021, an anonymous tipster spilled to popular Instagram gossip account DeuxMoi that there had been rumblings in Sweden that singer Lykke Li had been “secretly dating” superstar Brad Pitt for “quite some time”. Then, on January 26, the rumours reignited when the same outlet claimed that Pitt and “that Swedish singer” were spotted dining together at the Italian eatery Mother Wolf in Hollywood. “Brad and Lykke have been able to fly under the radar so easily because they’re neighbours,” a source told UK newspaper The Sun. Indeed, Pitt’s sprawling Los Feliz estate, comprised of four combined properties, is three minutes from the two-bedroom home where 35-year-old Li has lived with her 5-year-old son Dion since splitting with her ex, music producer Jeff Bhasker, in 2018. Also in the…

Now that she’s on her second season of Married at First Sight, Alessandra Rampolla, the show’s resident clinical sexologist, says that her on-set jitters have settled. “I’m more comfortable, I’m more confident and I know how I can best help the brides and grooms who are putting themselves forward for the experiment,” says the Puerto Rican-born mentor. “I deal with whatever situation they want to discuss and one thing I’ve learned both in my work and on the show is, I don’t judge.” With a new batch of contenders appearing in the search for love, here Rampolla, 47, tells WHO what to expect from this year’s season of the juggernaut franchise. What do you think is the key to making the TV marriages on the show work? The couples must…

At 55, Janet Jackson is reclaiming her rhythm. After that infamous 2004 Super Bowl performance alongside Justin Timberlake, the Rhythm Nation singer disappeared from the public eye. By 2012, she’d married billionaire business tycoon Wissam Al Mana and became a virtual recluse, trading New York for London. But now, 10 years later, Michael Jackson’s little sister is back with a no-holds-barred documentary about the ups and downs of her life. Starting with her controlling dad, Joe, whom she admits was the brains behind the whole Jackson family empire. “My father was very strict,” she says. “He was in charge of my life.” Twisted and cruel, he passed away in 2018 at age 89. Now she finally feels free to talk about his alleged abuse, which included waking his kids up…

Larry Birkhead is raising daughter Dannielynn, 15, largely out of the spotlight, aside from walking the red carpet every year at the Kentucky Derby – where Birkhead first met Smith (left, with her attorney Howard K Stern) in 2004. “I’ve had companies call me since and ask for her to model, and that answer’s ‘no,’” Birkhead has said. “She wants to be a kid.” Smith’s legacy was celebrated in October with a 32-piece Guess Originals x Anna Nicole Smith Collection inspired by her 1993 campaign photo shoot. “Ever since Dannielynn was a kid, I would take her in to the Guess stores and she would look up at her mum’s posters almost as if she were looking up to heaven,” Birkhead told Rolling Stone magazine.…

Exactly what led to the alleged mix-up at the lab in the US where the Cardinales’ embryo was swapped with another couple’s is not yet known. But what’s clear, according to IVF experts, is that mishaps – although extremely rare – do happen, and sometimes with devastating results. Though the use of IVF has skyrocketed – the procedure was performed nearly 300,000 times in 2019, according to the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology – no universal guidelines exist to prevent mishaps in the lab, according to Dr Nicole Noyes, a fertility-preservation and IVF specialist at Northwell Health in New York City. “Each clinic has their own protocols,” she says. Those rules may include assigning another technician as a “spotter” to check, match and positively identify samples; colour-coding vials and lab…

The Sunday Riley brand really needs no introduction. Set foot in any Mecca store and you’ll undoubtedly be pointed in the direction of the luxe-looking, results-delivering skincare line. But despite those eye-catching dropper bottles being a permanent fixture on any beauty lover’s vanity, the global success of the company didn’t happen overnight It’s all due to the hard work of Texas-born founder Sunday Riley, who chased her dream to “bring about real change in skin”, becoming a bestselling brand creator, product formulator and household name. Here, she shares an insider’s look into what it takes to operate a global beauty company, her own A+ skincare routine (which will shake up everything you thought you knew about layering actives), and what “clean beauty” really means. Take us back to the beginning…

For oily skin: Choose a matte foundation “like Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation, which provides amazing, comfortable coverage and ensures you stay shine-free,” explains Antuar. For normal to dry skin: For normal to drier skin types, you can afford to choose something with a more radiant finish. “I love Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Foundation,” says Antuar. “It’s a cult favourite amongst makeup artists, photographs beautifully and is great for all skin ages, too.” For combination skin: Don’t be afraid to mix and match foundations. “If you have an oily T-zone, apply a matte, long-wear foundation to that area and a sheerer, glowy foundation to the rest of your face,” recommends Antuar.…

How did your latest sleepwear collaboration come to be? After hosting an event with Wanderluxe earlier in the year, I immediately fell in love with the brand. With its beautiful fabrications and gorgeous tailoring, it makes sleepwear feel so luxe. I love getting into my PJs at night, it’s the way I unwind and relax. I also adore lazy Sunday mornings, staying in my PJs until after breakfast, so I’m always on the hunt for beautiful sleepwear – and I found that when I was introduced to Wanderluxe. I feel so lucky to be able to design my own collection! What was your favourite part about creating the range? I loved the whole design process – from choosing the fabrications to all the colours and the colour combinations. The founder,…

Money has a big impact on our wellbeing – whether we’re toiling to make more of it, or worrying about how little we have. But what if we’ve been thinking about things the wrong way? Financial expert, author and transformative coach Patrice Washington has inspired countless listeners through her Redefining Wealth podcast. Her goal is to teach people to chase purpose, not money, and to restore the word “wealth” back to its original meaning of “wellbeing”. Here, Washington reveals her holistic approach to gaining wealth!

WHAT IS IT? Style meets substance with this sleek tracker. THE VERDICT “The Fitbit Luxe couldn’t have come along at a better time for me – needing a motivator to drag myself out of bed earlier each day after months of WFH. The sleek, lightweight design has all the features you’d expect of a fitness and wellness tracker, from all-day activity recording (steps, distance and calories burned) to monitoring your heart rate, stress levels, menstrual cycle and sleep (my personal fave!).

For her first two novels, Kerri Maher chose well-known subjects in Grace Kelly and US political dynasty the Kennedys. But in her latest read, she tells the lesser-known story of book publisher and seller Sylvia Beach. Beach became known for her Paris bookshop, Shakespeare and Company, where she published controversial books during the 1920s. “I read Sylvia’s memoir, Shakespeare and Company, half my life ago when I was an undergraduate English major obsessed with the 1920s, and I was entranced by her story,” she tells WHO. “Sylvia was instrumental in changing the  course of literature in the 20th century, and she is a shining example of the power of living an independent life. She believed in her convictions deeply enough to go after what she wanted in spite of her…
