Royal fans got a thrill at the 2019 Pacific Fair Magic Millions Polo on Jan. 6, when the carnival’s patron, Zara Tindall, and her husband, Mike Tindall, mingled with guests before Zara took to the field on horseback. Under the beating Gold Coast sun, local celebrities and influencers clinked glasses of Champagne in a number of ultra-glam marquees, including the Harrolds marquee – which was, thankfully, airconditioned. The Star, Palazzo Versace, Pacific Fair and Woodford Reserve were among the other sponsors with marquees – each filled with revellers dressed in their best. The day included three matches of polo, one of which was a celebrity match where world-famous polo player Nacho Figueras captained the Veuve Clicquot team against Zara, who led Team Harrolds. NRL legend Billy Slater could also be…

SHE’S KNOWN AS THE POLITE AND poised Duchess of Cambridge, having taken on her royal duties with grace and pride. And when Kate Middleton married Prince William and proved herself worthy of a royal title, she became loved across the globe. Sadly, Kate’s wide popularity and adoration wasn’t always the case. In fact, the commoner-turned-royal had her own bout of tough times growing up. Opening up to British newspaper The Sun, a classmate of the duchess revealed that she was bullied so badly at school that her parents had to intervene for the sake of her mental health. Jessica Hay attended the elite Downe House all-girls boarding school alongside Kate, which sets parents back $52,000 per year in school fees. “She was picked on because she was perfect, well turned-out…

HER SON HAS BEEN THROUGH AN emotional few years, from splitting up with the mother of his six children in 2016, to the ongoing bitter custody battle ever since, but Brad Pitt’s mother, Jane, has stood by him and is very much still on his side of the ring. According to reports, the Hollywood heavyweight’s mum is “furious” with his estranged wife Angelina for ruining her son’s life. “Jane is a tough cookie, and she will never forgive Angelina for what she’s put the family through – especially since they’ve barely seen the kids since the divorce was announced,” an insider told Radar Online. “She thinks her son has been treated in a cruel and manipulative way, and she’s not letting this go,” added the source. “Brad’s had to beg…

Momoa doesn’t take the word “‘ohana” (Hawaiian for family) lightly. When he started dating Bonet, he also befriended her ex-husband, rocker Lenny Kravitz, and he’s a doting stepdad to Bonet and Kravitz’s daughter Zoë. Kravitz and Bonet met in 1985 before eloping in 1987 and welcoming Zoë a year later. They divorced in 1993. “Zoë’s a beautiful human being,” says Momoa. Zoë, who stars on HBO’s Big Little Lies , calls Momoa “papa bear” and they have matching arm tattoos (“etre toujours ivre,” French for “always be drunk”). Meanwhile, Lenny, 54, and Momoa showed off their matching skull rings when Momoa hosted SNL .…

A return to natural is on the cards…“I think the next big thing is already happening – people want more transparency in everything they do and use. Natural is a huge challenge today in beauty, getting great results with clean formulations,”says Robin. McMahon concurs, claiming nude colours are on-trend.“These use the natural tone of your hair with natural looking highlights. It just makes more with what you’ve already got. It’s a very French way to approach colour, they always keep colour within a couple shades of your natural tone to make the most of your complexion and eye colour.”…

PURE WELLNESS NEW ZEALAND’S ARO HA WELLNESS RETREAT IS NOT FOR THE FAINT-HEARTED, BUT YOU WILL LEAVE FEELING REFRESHED AND REJUVENATED. BY AMY MILLS The gentle chimes of a Tibetan bowl awake me from my deep sleep, followed by a soft voice outside my window announcing sunrise yoga. I throw on my yoga clothes – as well as a beanie, boots and down jacket as it is only a couple of degrees outside – stumble out of my room and make my way to the cedar-clad main building under a star-filled sky. Retreat leader Chris leads us through a flow practice, and as the class draws to a close, I can now see Lake Wakatipu and the surrounding snow-capped mountains out of the large glass window. I sit for a…

ARIES MARCH 20–APRIL 18 You don’t feel so competitive, or insistent due to your need for relaxation. A feeling of leisure, openness, passivity, or lack of purpose is very likely, and you will avoid a stressful confrontation or situation that will demand too much of you. You could meet a prospective partner through a social event or a lover or friend may invade your privacy. TAURUS APRIL 19–MAY 20 People around you socially just don’t want to go home. Your popularity will be riding high and you may find yourself surrounded by influential friends, coworkers and acquaintances. A dinner party, outing or a get-together will have you dragging your feet by the end of the week. An important communication may bring exciting news. GEMINI MAY 21–JUNE 20 It’s time to…

MODEL ANNALISE Braakensiek, 46, was found dead in her inner-city Sydney apartment on Jan. 6, after police were alerted by close friends and family who became concerned when she failed to answer their calls and text messages. Police said her death was not suspicious and a report will be prepared for the coroner. In a social media post to her 40,000 followers on Dec. 15, the former star of SBS sitcom Pizza shared that “Everything seems to feel twisted and upside down at the moment.” Braakensiek had parted ways with her stockbroker husband Danny Goldberg in April 2018 after 16 years. A deleted Instagram post hinted at hurt: “I don’t know if a broken heart mends,” she wrote, “or learns to live in pieces.” The jewellery creator and lingerie designer,…

FROM JAMIE LEE CURTIS TO JODIE Foster, Amanda Keller has interviewed some of the world’s most talked about celebrities on the hit WSFM101.7 breakfast show Jonesy & Amanda. And while the presenter admits chatting to Hollywood royalty is exhilarating, drawing information out of some can be unbelievably difficult. “The hardest people to interview are often actors who come out for movies,” she told Pete Timbs on the WHO’s popular podcast Who Are You. “Harrison Ford was so bored that he brought a book into the interview! Or Tobey Maguire from Spider-Man. I could pretend to be Spider-Man and give a better interview. I know that sometimes they are shy, but how hard is it to talk up a good movie?” Despite the challenges that come with chatting to A-listers, Keller,…

It’s been 25 years since Natalie Portman, then 13, made her big-screen debut as a hit man’s apprentice in 1994’s The Professional. Since then she has filmed in such exotic locations as Tunisia (Star Wars: Episode I) and a national park in Iceland (Thor: The Dark World), but for her latest movie Vox Lux (out Feb. 21), in which she plays a troubled pop star, she found herself in a familiar place: Long Island, New York, where she grew up. “The hotel we filmed in was where I went to bar mitzvahs,” says Portman, 37. “The studio where we filmed a concert was around the corner from my high school. It felt like a homecoming to me. That familiarity makes you feel that much more free.” In recent years Portman…

Just days before Thanksgiving, Keith and Jennifer Caneiro were making holiday plans, looking forward to hosting extended family for their traditional celebration at their Colts Neck, New Jersey home. The couple and their kids – athletic 8-year-old Sophia, a Girl Scout who loved baking with her grandmother, and Jesse, a history buff who’d recently celebrated his 11th birthday – were well known and liked on upscale Willow Brook Road, where they’d lived for more than a decade. Neighbours would stop to talk to Keith, 50, about the peach trees he tended in the front yard and Jennifer, 45, was active in the elementary school parent-teacher organisation. But on Nov. 20, 2018, neighbours noted that Jesse and Sophia hadn’t made their usual sprint to the school bus stop and then saw…

With so many hours spent outdoors in the warmer months, we not only have to pay extra attention to sun protection and skincare, but also how we care for and maintain our locks. Our hair is one of the first places moisture is stripped from in the heat. We have enlisted celebrity colourist, Christophe Robin, and founder and colour diretor at QUE, Monique McMahon, experts in all mane matters, to share their insights… Summer hair is constantly exposed to the elements, we are outside more, swimming in the ocean or in chlorine and spending time under the sun, all of which will strip hair of its natural moisture, making it susceptible to breakage and long-term damage. “Chlorine and salt have a tendency to dull and wash out your hair colour…

Congratulations on your ambassador role with Botanicals by L’Oréal Paris. Thank you. The botanicals brand is very much aligned with what I believe in with life and how I aim to live my life now, so I am really proud to be working with the team. L’Oréal has been a part of my bathroom regimen since I was little so it’s kind of a dream to be on board. I really love that all the packaging is 100 per cent recycled material and it is 100 per cent recyclable, which is really important to me to leave that positive footprint in this day and age. Do you lean towards natural beauty products? Absolutely, I think the catalyst for that was definitely when I fell pregnant with Violet, I was thinking…

VICTORIA WILLIAMSON, 35, GOLD COAST • WAS 82kg NOW 62kg Living in Western Australia, away from friends and family, and with a newborn and 2-year-old to care for, Victoria Williamson turned to food to cope with stress and loneliness. “I knew the girls needed a healthy mum” “I was never an emotional eater but I started comfort eating to get me through the days,” she said. “It was overwhelming as I was breastfeeding and looking after a toddler and my  husband worked six days a week. It was hard.” At her heaviest, Williamson said she was bigger than when she was pregnant with her second child, Lucy, and found herself too ashamed to go to the park with her girls because of her weight. When the family moved back to…

SHE’S BEEN MAKING NOISE ever since her younger half-sister became engaged to Prince Harry in 2017. Now Samantha Markle, 53, has found herself getting more attention than she bargained for. According to a report in The Sunday Times , the estranged Markle’s erratic behaviour has landed her on the Scotland Yard’s “fixated person’s list”. The Fixated Threat Assessment Centre creates the list to “assess and manage the risks from lone individuals who harass, stalk or threaten public figures.” An insider told the publication that Samantha Markle poses a risk, more than a threat. “She is not committing criminal offences, but she is causing concerns for the royal family,” the source said. FORMER LIFE Before marrying into the British royal family, Meghan starred in the US drama…

FROM THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN, Sam and Phoebe Burgess appeared to be the happiest of couples, but three years after tying the knot in a beautiful Southern Highlands, NSW, estate ceremony, the NRL player and his former journalist wife have separated. While neither has yet made a formal announcement, a source close to the pair told The Daily Telegraph that “things have been bad for a while”. “They tried to keep it together, but it all went to s--t, that’s the honest truth. It is pretty messy,” the source said. The source also revealed that the break-up was difficult on Phoebe, especially after Sam’s mother, Julie, stood by her son during last year’s sexting scandal. Sam was later cleared of any wrongdoing. “It would have been hard for Phoebe because…

They say love comes when you least expect it, and that sentiment certainly rings true for Ada Nicodemou. Rocking a red bikini while flaunting her enviable figure and washboard abs during a day at the beach with boyfriend Adam Rigby, it’s clear the 41-year-old is head over heels in love with the man she calls her “rock” and “soul mate”. “I’m with the man of my dreams who makes me so happy and secure,” the mother-of-one gushed on Instagram on Jan. 1. Nicodemou and her dream man, businessman Rigby, first met two years ago at a work function – and they’ve been inseparable ever since. In fact, the popular Home And Away star, who was previously married to Chrys Xipolitas and shares 6-year-old son Johnas with him, credits Rigby for…

A year ago, Jason Momoa wasn’t exactly an A-list name in Hollywood. There were of course Game of Thrones fans who knew him as Khal Drogo, the fearsome Dothraki warrior king from the show’s first season, and others who recognised him as the longtime partner of Cosby Show actress Lisa Bonet, 51. But when the Hawaiian-born actor, 39, was cast as the star of DC Comics’ newest franchise, Aquaman, a new superhero – and a new superstar – was born. “I’m in a nice place right now with my career,” Momoa says with an easy laugh. “I’m sure it will go up and down, you never know. But I’ve been doing this for so long, and it wasn’t just handed to me. I’ve worked really, really hard to get…

● Apply a protective, plant-based oil before you go in the water to allow your hair to air dry in a softer, more natural form. Once 90 per cent dry, apply a moisturising cream and push or press it into the cuticle (rather than rub) and allow it to dry in its natural wave or formation. I think in summer, a girl’s best friend from beach to spritzer, is a French hair pin to drag one side up, or a loose top knot – half up, half down. ● Never brush your hair as soon as you get out of the pool or ocean when it’s soaking wet. Always towel dry it first and then gently start with the lengths. When it’s wet, your hair is heavier and more prone…

January and February mean one thing in the entertainment world: awards shows. Yes, we’re staring down the barrel of two months of Hollywood slapping itself on the back, culminating in the Academy Awards – the highest honour for the filmmaking profession. Previously, the only awards shows you’d ever hear about were the Golden Globes (which have just happened) and the Oscars (add Mon., Feb. 25 to your calendar). Now, everything from the Critics’ Choice Awards (airs Mon., Jan. 14 at 11am; FOX8) to the Screen Actors Guild Awards (Mon., Jan. 28) receives blanket coverage. Throw in the AACTA International Awards (which have just been handed out), the BAFTA Film Awards (Mon., Feb. 11) and, for something different, the Grammys (the same day as the BAFTAs), and you’re looking at a…

INSTANT FAMILY STARRING: Rose Byrne, Mark Wahlberg Parenting is hard, and married couple Pete (Wahlberg) and Ellie (Byrne), who flip houses for a living and haven’t got around to thinking about kids, dive into the deep end when they decide to foster a teenager who has been in care. When they discover she has two younger siblings, they go all in, becoming a family of five overnight. The results are equal parts hilarious (often inappropriately so) and tear-inducing, with Instant Family exploring a family construct we don’t see depicted onscreen very often. Getting the most laughs is Byrne, who once again proves her comic capabilities.  (Out now) PICK OF THE LITTER STARRING: Five potential guide dogs It takes a certain type of dog to lead the…

You may be familiar with the 16-year-old actress from film Australia Day and TV series The Gods of Wheat Street , but the younger sister of Madeleine Madden ( Picnic at Hanging Rock ) will reach a new audience as co-presenter of the third season of Crash the Bash (starts Sat., Jan. 12; Nickelodeon). “Acting and hosting are two entirely different playing fields,” Madden says. “With hosting, I am able to show my personality instead of hiding behind a character. Don’t get me wrong, I love acting, however hosting has shown me a different way of performing, which I’m really enjoying.” Madden will host the kids’ series alongside Lee Carseldine and tells WHO her on-air partner “is…

NEIGHBOURS After just 170 episodes on Seven, the fledgling soap was pounced on by Ten, where it has been one of the network’s flagship series ever since, launching countless actors (and the odd singer) in the process. THE MINDY PROJECT Three seasons of the Mindy Kaling comedy aired on US network Fox before its 2015 axing. It was quickly announced the show would move to streaming service Hulu, with three more seasons made. SCRUBS This comedy had two reprieves – after seven seasons on original US network NBC, it moved to ABC for an eighth, which ended with“My Finale”. But it wasn’t over: a rebooted ninth (and final) season followed. COUGAR TOWN The show that embraced its terrible title had a tumultuous run on original US network ABC, including its…

“There are positives to enjoy and inevitable negatives that are best avoided.” Black Mirror actor Will Poulter has decided to take a break from social media. “I miscarried and lost the child of my hopes and dreams.” Reflecting on 2018, You actress Shay Mitchell revealed that she suffered a miscarriage, sharing a picture of a sonogram with a broken heart emoji. “Spoiler for the rest of this year/ probably my life: it’s no one.
