Innehållsförteckning för Issue 51, 2025 från WHO

This year managed to somehow feel both very long and over in a blink. In 2025, the news cycle moved fast, but certain moments stopped us in our tracks. Others still made us question how they could possibly even be real, and many made us wish they weren’t. From the ongoing mystery of the Louvre heist (page 17) and global swooning over cover star Robert Irwin (page 12), to the sadness over Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s separation (page 34) and the collective shock of Diane Keaton’s sudden passing (page 40), this year truly kept us on our toes and glued to our news feeds. In this issue, we rewind the moments that stopped us mid-scroll, inspired joy and sparked important conversations. Some you’ll remember instantly, others you may have…

In the latest development in the long-running legal saga between Angelina Jolie, 50, and Brad Pitt, 62, the actress has been ordered by a judge to hand over messages linked to the sale of her share in their Château Miraval winery. The lawsuit was first filed in 2022, after Pitt alleged Jolie sold her stake to a subsidiary of Stoli Group without his consent, claiming the move breached an agreement they had in place. Jolie has denied the accusations in a countersuit. In June, it was confirmed that Pitt had formally asked for Jolie’s communications to be released, arguing the request was necessary as he faced difficulties questioning an employee from the Stoli Group. A source told Us Weekly at the time that the move was “another example” of what…

The Swedish royal household has come out in defence of Princess Sofia after a past association with sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein was revealed. Emails published by Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter suggested Epstein was introduced to Sofia in 2005 by financier Barbro Ehnbom. “She’s the girl I told you about before I left, who I thought you might like to meet. Maybe we can visit before you go on holiday?” read one of the emails from Ehnbom. Epstein replied, “I’m in the Caribbean. Does she want to come for a couple of days? I’ll send a ticket.” But while Sofia, 41, was “introduced” to Epstein in her twenties, she did not accept his invitation, the Royal Court confirmed. “No-one can be expected to remember every person they have encountered throughout their…

Ahead of her 70th birthday on November 5, Kardashian-Jenner family matriarch Kris debuted a noticeably smoother, tauter visage at pal Lauren Sánchez’s bachelorette party in May. Far from gatekeeping the secret to her youthful new look, Hollywood’s most famous momager spilled all to Vogue Arabia on August 26, revealing it was “time for a refresh” after having a face lift 15 years ago. “I decided to do this face lift because I want to be the best version of myself, and that makes me happy,” she explained. “For me, this is ageing gracefully. It’s my version.” The star added that daughter Kylie was with her in person, while Kim was “present at all times on FaceTime” during the procedure with Dr Steven Levine in New York City.…

ANDREW’S FALL FROM GRACE On November 3, King Charles officially stripped his brother – now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor – of his HRH style and prince titles. This followed his removal as the Duke of York from the Roll of the Peerage on October 30. The decision to remove the 65-year-old’s birthright and dukedom came amid mounting public pressure due to his links to late convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The posthumous publication of sex trafficking survivor Virginia Giuffre’s memoir on October 21 – in which she detailed the prince’s alleged sexual abuse of her at 17, something he’s always denied – solidified the need for action to be taken. Additionally, Mountbatten-Windsor was ordered to surrender his lease on Royal Lodge after two decades in residence. SYDNEY’S DENIM DIVIDE The launch of Sydney…

GONE BEFORE GOODBYE by Harlan Coben and Reese Witherspoon The star technically didn’t select an October read, since she was busy promoting her own debut novel, Gone Before Goodbye. Co-written with bestselling mystery and thriller author Coben, it’s likely her book clubbers picked up this one instead.

After a devastating series of personal tragedies, she is thrown a lifeline by a former colleague, who offers her a position as a surgeon with an anonymous clientele that demands the best care and absolute discretion.

The comedian, 32, and his girlfriend, Elsie Hewitt, 29, welcomed their first baby on December 12. “My best work yet, I am absolutely overflowing with love and gratitude and disbelief,” Hewitt captioned an Instagram post, which featured a photo of the couple holding their newborn. “Wu tang forever,” Davidson jokingly added.

Now married and a father to two, Macaulay Culkin is probably never home alone. And it appears the former child star has taken to family life in ways he never expected. “I wasn’t ever really a Crocs guy,” Culkin, 45, told Women’s Wear Daily. “But when I started having kids, I found out that they are kind of really convenient and cosy. You know, I kind of swore to myself that I was never going to be the suburban dad who wore Crocs, but then I became a suburban dad who wears Crocs. So here we are.” Culkin wed Running Point actress Brenda Song, 37, in 2017, and the pair share sons Dakota, 4, and Carson, 3. When his eldest boy bought a pair of pink Crocs, the supportive dad…

Going blonde for summer is a seasonal rite of passage – but the reality is that blonde hair needs more protection, moisture and maintenance at this time of year. As anyone with first-strand experience can attest, effortless sun-kissed highlights are anything but effortless, as UV exposure, salt water and heat styling all accelerate dryness and brassiness. Then there’s the chlorine that comes with all those pool days, which can leave even the brightest blonde looking dull or uneven. So whether you’re planning a fresh lift or want to keep your colour looking salon-new all season, a few strategic tweaks to your routine can make all the difference. Here’s exactly how to go blonde – and stay blonde – the right way this summer. TONE IT Going blonde doesn’t mean going…
