TOAST OR ROAST? GIVING A SPEECH AT her beau’s 45th birthday party in Sydney on Nov. 23, Sophie Monk was her usual straight-talking self.“Stu and I are very similar—we’re not very good at rules,”the Bachelorette began, as Stu Laundy looked on, smiling. “We were meant to be in lockdown, [but] we saw each other more than any other couple … I’d leave a key down in the garage and he’d just pick it up and go straight into the room. He had that arrogance in there. He knew he was going to win.” While her comments sparked buzz that the show was rigged in the millionaire publican’s favour, Monk, 37, clarified on Instagram:“I sneakily saw him AFTER we had finished shooting the show, before the finale aired.” The fledgling couple…

THEIR ROMANCE BEGAN shortly after filming wrapped on Mother!, and now the relationship between Lawrence, 27, and director Aronofsky, 48, is also a wrap, a source confirms to WHO. The couple were first spotted dining together in August 2016 in New York and stayed low-key, only posing together publicly for the September premiere of their film.

‘She’s a very calming influence. I’m lucky to have her as my support system’ —Teller says of Sperry For Miles Teller, proposing to his girlfriend of four years, model Keleigh Sperry, 25, required a gesture grander than a romantic dinner or walk on the beach. So the actor, 30, popped the question during an African safari. With elephants roaming in the background, Teller led Sperry to a tree with a rose and note tied to it reading “May 11th, 2013–August 20th, 2017.” On one knee he told her, “This was the first day that I asked you to be my girlfriend, and today was the last day you woke up as my girlfriend.” Sperry was floored. “It was perfect,” she says of the proposal. “I’ll never get the image out…

LAST TIME I SAW A DOCTOR I can’t remember. That’s a good thing, I hope.

US network Starz maintains a standing offer to Diana Gabaldon to visit the sets of (and occasionally make an on-camera appearance on) Outlander. That’s why the Arizona-based author—who’s busy finishing Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone, the ninth book in her best-selling Outlander series—jumped at the chance to watch filming of the much-anticipated scenes aboard the Artemis, the ship Claire and Jamie board in an effort to find the kidnapped young Ian. “My husband said to me, ‘I thought you weren’t going to travel so much, so you can stay home and write books.’To which I replied, ‘Set visit in South Africa?’” Gabaldon tells WHO. “And so of course we went, because who wouldn’t?” And in what is no doubt a relief to executive producer Ronald D.

“It made me sick to think of what he must have felt during all of this” —Cheryl Dils WHAT IS LOCKED-IN SYNDROME? Usually brought on by stroke, locked-in syndrome is a rare neurological disorder in which damage to the brain’s ability to connect with the body leaves patients unable to speak or move their muscles—except for those that control vertical eye movements. Despite that, patients remain conscious, awake—and able to think. Full recovery “is incredibly rare,” says Dr Karen Hirsch, a neurocritical care specialist. “It’s a very grave diagnosis.” By the time they’d arrived at the urgent-care clinic in Mesa, Arizona, on the morning of Feb. 4, 2012, Cheryl Dils knew there was something seriously wrong with her husband, Mike. He’d been feeling weak and slurring his words and now,…

An album I consider quintessentially ’80s Human League’s Dare, which had“Love Action” and“Don’t You Want Me”. It wasn’t being futuristic for its own weird reason. It was about making pop music again, things that made you sing along and tap your foot like the Beatles or the Rolling Stones or Elvis Presley, but done in a futuristic way. That was the beginning of the ’80s for me. The music that lifts my spirit My favourite music is baroque, really. I love Bach, and some of his work is so immensely joyful. The singer that reminds me most of childhood Joan Baez. The first record that was given to me by someone outside of my family was a compilation of social activism and protest songs from the ’60s, and I completely…

EVEN KEEL Margot Robbie told Vogue Australia that between acting and co-running a film company,“There are obviously a lot of times where I’ll have a meltdown and go:‘I can’t do it any more.’And you miss out on a lot of things, like you rarely go on holidays, you miss everyone’s weddings, everyone’s birthdays.
