‘I don’t think the Queen could have done her job without him’ It has been a 78-year love affair with humour at its heart. Like so many long and successful marriages, the Queen and Prince Philip have built their relationship on foundations of friendship and laughter. Philip has been her ‘rock,’ the man who made her giggle at formal events and helped her to relax when off duty. Celebrating their 70th wedding anniversary in November, the duo’s love story is considered a fairytale come true around the globe. The couple, both great-greatgrandchildren of Queen Victoria and therefore cousins, first met in 1934 at a family wedding when Elizabeth was eight. But the dashing Greek prince really captured her heart in 1939 on a visit with her parents to the Royal…

MUM OF THE YEAR! In a single week, Emma Uhila does more than 20 loads of laundry, spends 10-and-a-half h ours washing up and makes a whopping 231 home-cooked meals for her beautiful family. Emma is a mum in a million... well, one in 24 million to be exact! Those were the incredible odds beaten by the 34-year-old and her husband Loma, who turns 38 this month, when they welcomed their fourth set of natural twins. ‘At times it can be chaos and there is yelling and there’s fighting. But every day we are blessed beyond words,’ she tells New Idea. When I recently had my hair cut and coloured for the first time in two years, they were like: “Oh Mummy, you look so beautiful, like a princess.” It…

Bringing my fave singer to my fave show to guest judge,’ the supermodel captioned a social media video of the special moment. However, there’s one person who would no doubt have been devastated by the former flames’ chemistry: Seal’s rumoured new girlfriend Delta Goodrem, 32. After weeks of speculation over The Voice coaches’ flirty relationship, sources close to the Aussie singer say she’s always felt threatened by Seal’s former wife of seven years, with whom he has children Leni, 12, Henry, 11, Johan,…

JUST PLAIN NASTY Janet Jackson is facing bizarre claims from a US tabloid insisting her three-month-old son Eissa is not her biological baby. In a recent Instagram pic, 50-year-old Janet can be seen cuddling up to her fair-skinned son (above) – prompting the outrageous speculation by Globe. ‘Who is she kidding?! That baby is white,’ and ‘There’s no way Janet is this baby’s mom,’ are just some of the fan comments mentioned in the shock story. The Rhythm Nation singer hit fans with a baby bombshell last year when she announced she was indefinitely postponing her Unbreakable World Tour because she was ‘planning’ a family. She was seen in public only once throughout the entire pregnancy and announced her separation from her Qatari billionaire husband Wissam Al Mana, 42, just…

D EA DL Y DISEASE Sipping her steaming takeaway coffee each morning on the way to work was a favourite part of Liz Rowley’s daily ritual. But unbeknown to the mum-of-three, her beloved cappuccino was making her critically ill. Liz, 44, who lives on the NSW mid-north coast, has a rare anaphylactic allergy to all meat, dairy and other products derived from mammals. She unknowingly developed the potentially fatal alpha-gal allergy – often confused with Lyme disease – from a tick bite five years ago, and she’s just one of a rapidly skyrocketing number of Aussies plagued by the horror disorder. ‘I have to be so vigilant about what I eat now,’ says Liz. ‘I am vegan, but can eat chicken and fish. It’s been a huge adjustment. My entire…

Goldie Hawn and Amy Schumer, co-stars of the new actioncomedy Snatched, are a match made in heaven... Scratch that, a match made on a plane! ‘Amy approached me on a plane but at the time I didn’t know her,’ Goldie recalls. ‘We met again in London with Kate [Hudson, Goldie’s daughter] and Amy came over and said: “I am doing this movie and I really want you to be in it!” I said: “Great, that is fantastic,” and it went from there.’ It’s 15 years since Goldie has graced the big screen, so when New Idea catches up with the Hollywood legend, she chats about her exciting silver screen return, the special bond between her and daughter Kate Hudson – and how she looks so good at 71!

She fondly remembers her beloved firstborn, who passed away nearly 15 years ago, 27 weeks into her pregnancy. ‘He’s with me every single day,’ she tells. ‘There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think of him, what he would be doing. We still talk about Zach and go and see him on his birthday. We [have] a cake and we let some balloons go.’ The account manager says she’s keen to share her story in the hope she can help other mums realise there is a light at the end of the dark tunnel. ‘It happens – it’s very common,’ she says. But 39- year-old Bec admits that the birth…

SHE’S STILL SMILING Imagine being so delicate that your bones could break in the wind. This is the reality for little Zoe Lush, who suffers from a very rare condition that resulted in her breaking several bones while she was still in the womb, shattering her collarbone during birth and breaking up to 100 bones before she was one. ‘Zoe is very fragile... There have been some close calls but she astonishes us every single day,’ says Zoe’s mum Chelsea. The condition – called osteogenesis imperfecta, and caused by a gene mutation – means that Zoe, now six, can break a rib from simply sneezing, and a fall can be catastrophic. Chelsea, 27, from Huntington Beach, California, was just 20 years old when she fell pregnant, and doctors advised her…

CHILDREN’S WORLD HAIRY SITUATION While Miss Four was drawing a picture of me, I was admiring the beautiful flowing hair she was putting on my head. She then started drawing lines under my arms. ‘These are the hairs under your arms,’ she said.
