MORE THAN A YEAR AFTER SECRETLY tying the knot at a New York City courthouse, Justin Bieber, 25, and Hailey Bieber, 22, threw a lavish traditional wedding at the Montage Palmetto Bluff in South Carolina on September 30. The bride made her way down the aisle in a lace off-the-shoulder, long-sleeve Off-White wedding gown with mermaid-style skirt and long, sheer veil that featured designer Virgil Abhol’s signature block lettering. On October 8, Hailey posted a new photo on her Instagram account embracing and locking lips with her husband. In the picture, her veil trailed behind her with the words “Till Death Do Us Part” lining the end of it. “Last Monday was the most special day of my life,” Hailey captioned the photo. In a second portrait, the stunning bride…

ALMOST TWO YEARS AFTER HE faced claims of sexual exploitation, James Franco is being sued by two former students of his now-defunct acting school. Sarah Tither-Kaplan and Toni Gaal have filed a lawsuit against the actor, 41, claiming he and his business partners “engaged in widespread inappropriate and sexually charged behaviour towards female students by sexualising their power as a teacher and an employer by dangling the opportunity for roles in their projects,” according to court documents. In January 2018, Tither-Kaplan was one of five women who accused Franco of sexually exploiting her in an article published by The Los Angeles Times. Now, she and Gaal are suing the Oscar-nominated actor for sex discrimination, sexual harassment and fraud, among other allegations, which Franco’s lawyer, Michael Plonsker, denies. “This is not…

While Cyrus and Simpson spent the weekend uploading sexy posts, Hemsworth has thrown himself into work. The 29-year-old was snapped on the set of his new TV series, Dodge and Miles, in Toronto, Canada. The buff Melbourne-born star was spotted running through the streets for a scene with a bloodied face before enjoying a stretch during breaks. According to Us Weekly, Hemsworth, who spent time in Australia with his big brother Chris amid the split, decided to file for divorce because Cyrus was “being so open about her relationship with Kaitlynn”.…

It’s been just more than a week since Ashton Kutcher’s ex-wife, Demi Moore, 56, released her bombshell memoir, Inside Out, which details allegations of infidelities and threesomes during their eight-year union – but despite the shocking revelations, Kutcher and his wife of four years, Mila Kunis, are taking the high road. In the wake of the drama the actor, 41, shared a smiling selfie with Kunis, 36, at Disneyland in Anaheim, California, on September 29, where they enjoyed a fun weekend getaway with their daughter, Wyatt, 5, and son, Dimitri, 2. Still, a source with knowledge of the situation says Kutcher was less than pleased about Moore’s version of their past being dredged up. “Did Ashton love the book? No, of course not. Did it impact his marriage to Mila…

Two months after her Italian wedding to Tokio Hotel guitarist Tom Kaulitz, 30, Heidi Klum is back at work – and happier than ever. Hosting Amazon Prime Video’s Making the Cut and returning as a judge on America’s Got Talent: The Champions, the supermodel, 46, opens up about her blissfully chaotic life. Congratulations on your wedding! What was your favourite part? We danced until four or five o’clock. It was so magical. [We were barefoot], so no-one’s feet were hurting! We were in Italy for three weeks, and I’m still wearing baggier clothes now. I ate too much and had too much fun. After all the planning, were you sad once the big day was over? No! I plan four birthdays every year, and my kids [Helene, 15, Henry, 14,…

Choosing to share your deepest, darkest family secrets on national television is impressive enough. But to also spark an important conversation about sexuality and ethnicity is beyond brave. Engaged couple Jess, 28, and JoJo, 38, are hoping that by sharing their story on Bride & Prejudice it will help other Aussies tackle stigma. “Coming from my cultural background, it has put a real hold on my relationships,” JoJo, who is Lebanese Australian, tells WHO. “Not just with my parents, but it’s affected relationships with the rest of my family and people from my community. Even though same-sex marriage is legal in this country, we have a long way to go. We need to continue to have these conversations so we can break down these barriers and create real change.” JoJo…

Scott Disick & Sofia Richie Until recently, fans would be forgiven for thinking that Scott Disick, better known as the party-boy father of Kourtney Kardashian’s three children, spent his days (and nights) clubbing and lounging by pools in luxurious holiday destinations with girlfriend Sofia Richie. Yet lately, Disick has been honing his skills as a high-end renovator, making over his A-list pals’ homes as well as building an extravagant cubby house for his kids, Mason, 9, Penelope, 7, and Reign, 4. Disick has spent the better part of the past year transforming a mansion in the celebrity-studded LA suburb of Hidden Hills. True to Kardashian style, he has documented the process in the first season of his home-renovation reality series, Flip it Like Disick. After buying the property for $4.81…

WHAT: VITAMIX SMART SYSTEM A3500i WHERE: VITAMIX.COM COST: $1495 I can’t even begin to tell you how much easier my life has become since having this very stylish machine on my kitchen benchtop. I barely need to leave the house. Being a nut addict, the first thing I made was peanut butter. I threw in 500g of unsalted, roasted peanuts, whizzed them up for 45 seconds and bingo. With no added oil, sugar or salt I just made the best tasting PB ever. Green smoothies used to be hit and miss for me – think: lumps and unmixed protein powder. But my previous blender only had two settings: fast and slow. The Vitamix A3500i has a lively 10 settings, which can be noisy but are fast and effective. Even cucumber,…

If you are anything like me then you satisfy that 3pm sugar craving with a cup of tea (or something stronger depending on the day!). Next time the urge hits, why not treat yourself to something a little different – a glass of Tea & Wine! As a lover of all things tea and wine, this sounds like the perfect afternoon indulgence, with a slice of cake, of course, to really immerse yourself in that‘me time’ experience. If coffee is more your thing and you need some‘me time’ on the run, stop by your local McCafé for a coffee on-the-go. Made from 100 per cent Arabica beans by an experienced barista, this is one quick and simple way to hit‘ahhhh’.…

Alice Wright swaps life in England for a new start in post-Depression America after marrying wealthy Kentuckian Bennett Van Cleve, but finds life there just as stultifying.

Possibly the cleverest TV prequel since Better Call Saul, this new DC Comics-based action series is the 1960s backstory of none other than Batman’s valet, Alfred Pennyworth (Bannon). Decades before he works for the Caped Crusader, he’s in his 20s and trying to make a go of it as a security specialist and fixer in swinging London, a sunless metropolis that looks like Gotham with statelier architecture. The show has a stylish swagger worthy of the Kingsman movies, plus a mean female villain, Sykes (Paloma Faith), who has Dusty Springfield hair. (Starts Thu., Oct. 10  at 9.30pm; FOX8)…

DEATHS Pioneering Dynasty actress Diahann Carroll died on October 4 in Los Angeles after a long battle with cancer, aged 84. In the 1960s, she starred in sitcom Julia, becoming the first black actress to lead a TV series. In the original Dynasty, Carroll played Dominique Deveraux. “She blazed trails through dense forests and elegantly left diamonds along the path for the rest of us to follow,” director Ava DuVernay tweeted. ● Robert Garrison, best known for playing the character Tommy in The Karate Kid, passed away on September 27 after a battle with kidney and liver problems, aged 59. In the movie, Garrison delivers the memorable line, “Get him a body bag, yeah.” The actor returned to the Karate Kid franchise this year for the YouTube series, Cobra Kai.…

Cosying up on the red carpet for the premiere of his Netflix documentary, Travis Scott: Look Mom I Can Fly, Scott and his partner, Kylie Jenner – fresh from a romantic holiday in Europe to celebrate Jenner’s 22nd birthday – presented a picture of loved-up bliss. The couple, who share 20-month-old daughter, Stormi, had been talking about taking the next step in their relationship, discussing marriage and reportedly trying for a second baby. But in a shock move on October 3, the celebrity pair revealed they were taking a break from their two-year-old relationship, with sources telling WHO that Scott, 28, had moved out of the home they shared “a couple of weeks ago”. So just what occurred in the ensuing weeks to change the course of their seemingly perfect…

JENNIFER HAWKINS IS EXPECTING HER first child with husband Jake Wall, and it seems she cannot wait to become a mum. Due very soon, the 35-year-old proudly showed off her almost full-term bump in two photos taken at the couple’s Newport mansion in Sydney. “I have dreamed of having this watermelon sized bump for years, sooo I’m letting it all hang out!!” the expectant mum wrote on Instagram. Hawkins and Wall, 36, announced they are expecting their first child together – a daughter – via an Instagram post in May.“I’m sooo happy to share with you some exciting news!

THE FIRST IMAGES OF THE Crown’s Season 4 depiction of Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s visit to Australia have emerged, with actors Josh O’Connor and Emma Corrin re-enacting the royals’ trip to landmark Uluru in 1983. Wearing a replica of Diana’s white belted dress, white flats, matching white handbag and with a feathery blonde bob, Corrin bears an uncanny resemblance to the princess. Charles and Di’s visit to Uluru (then widely referred to as Ayers Rock) was part of a six-week Commonwealth tour which saw Diana break ranks from royal tradition by bringing 9-month-old Prince William along with them – a move that paved the way for William and his brother, Prince Harry, to later take their children on tour. Just as Diana’s marriage to Prince Charles in 1981 thrust…

After a solo visit to a Malawi health clinic on October 1, the Duke of Sussex was being ushered into a waiting car when a reporter’s last-minute question invited an uncharacteristic scolding from the usually affable royal. “That short conversation, what do you hope to achieve through it?” asked Sky TV’s Rhiannon Mills. “What? Ask them,” he replied, flashing a strained grin. When Mills asked another question, Harry shot back, “Rhiannon, don’t behave like this.” “I have been a silent witness to her suffering”— Prince Harry Coming, as it did, just hours before Harry released a lengthy statement blasting the British tabloid media’s “relentless” hounding of his wife, the Duchess of Sussex, the awkward exchange left many wondering if the popular prince was cracking under the pressure of what has…

Demi Moore and Kutcher first began dating in 2003 after they met at a dinner party. The actress was in her 40s, while Kutcher was 15 years younger. They wed in 2005 and divorced in 2013. Now a source says Kutcher isn’t wild about Moore revealing unflattering details about him and their relationship: “Demi would undoubtedly not be thrilled if someone had been talking about her in this manner when her girls were little.”…

It’s fair to say Wil Anderson is a bit of an enigma. For someone who has been on our TV screens, radios and stages for more than 20 years, we know little about his life away from the camera. And there’s a good reason for that – he doesn’t want you to know. “I feel uncomfortable talking about myself and my private life, and my world,” he tells WHO. “That is very important to me to keep that separate. I like the idea of being able to get good projects that I enjoy doing, but the celebrity aspect that comes with that is not something that particularly sits comfortably with me.” According to the 45-year-old, he has made deliberate “career choices” to avoid having his private life mined for detail…

There was no such thing as a hard day at the office for Oliver Ackland on the Mornington Peninsula set of Secret Bridesmaids’ Business. “You’d get to work just as the sun was coming up and you’re overlooking this incredible vineyard, or the beach,” the actor tells WHO, dreamily. “Every day when we were down there you’d sort of be pinching yourself going, ‘Oh my God, this is my job, this is pretty incredible,’ but then you’d quickly have to snap out of it and go, ‘OK, now I’m playing a cheating partner who has some serious issues.’ It’s not all fun and games.” And yet, the Sydney-based actor, 39, is savouring the role of Alex, a lawyer with a troubled past, on Seven’s six-part romantic thriller featuring a stellar…

Fragrance My constant is Michael Kors Foundation Now that I’m not on television regularly, I don’t use a heavy base. What I’m liking now is Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser. A bit of coverage but it’s not heavy. Tool It’s not a tool, but I do like having eyelash extensions Handbag staple Revlon matte lip colour – it stays on, it’s not that standard lipstick shape, but I love it.

After a cold Sydney winter, the mere sight of Fiji’s azure waters makes me smile. My 7-year-old son Ollie and I have been counting down the days until we arrived in Fiji for our four-night Captain Cook Cruises adventure through the palm-fringed Yasawa Islands, an archipelago of 20 volcanic islands in the Western Division of Fiji, and we immediately switch to island time. We arrive early to Port Denarau and step aboard boutique cruise ship MV Reef Endeavour where we are greeted with a very warm ‘Bula!’ welcome and a fresh tropical juice. The 63-suite boat carries just 130 passengers and offers four levels of accommodation and all of the luxuries of a larger cruise ship. Children are warmly welcome if they are 5 and above, and Ollie is in…

Showgirls (1995) The film starring Elizabeth Berkley was savaged on release, but has gone on to earn cult, ‘so bad it’s funny’ status thanks to its terrible acting and dialogue. Striptease (1996) Demi Moore earned the then highest amount paid to an actress to appear in this comedy, which, like Showgirls, won the Razzie for Worst Picture in its year. Magic Mike (2012) Star Channing Tatum, who played Mike Lane in this well-received movie about male strippers, had himself worked in the industry when he was a teenager.…

In 1939, as Europe sped headlong towards World War II, millions of citizens were caught up in the conflict. This new British drama follows some of those people and the choices they make when it becomes apparent the world as they know it is about to be torn apart. From the British translator (Jonah Hauer-King) working in Poland who has fallen in love with a local waitress despite having a girlfriend back home in Manchester, to the American journalist (Hunt) stationed in Berlin who stumbles across evidence of German forces massing on the Polish border, to her gay nephew (Brian J Smith) who doesn’t believe there’s any reason to get out of Paris, the interconnected stories bring a more personal touch to a topic already seen on screen countless times.…

Miley Cyrus has swapped one Aussie heartthrob for another. In the past week, the controversial singer has been flaunting her new fling with Gold Coast-born singer Cody Simpson, 22, on social media. The romance comes two months after announcing her split from husband, Liam Hemsworth, and about two weeks after calling off her post-breakup romance with Kaitlynn Carter. On October 3, Cyrus, 26, was caught on camera by TMZ kissing Simpson at a grocery store in Los Angeles, sending fans into a frenzy over the former Hannah Montana star’s new flame.

In the wake of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s legal action against the Mail on Sunday, Thomas Markle has spoken out about the private letter that sparked the dispute. Markle denied he received money to leak the letter, published by the tabloid in February, and claims he only shared its content with the paper after reading an article which implied he’d dismissed his daughter’s attempts at reconciliation. The letter – sent by Meghan to her father after her wedding – was an attempt to fix their fragile relationship, an unnamed friend told People (WHO’s sister magazine). On October 6, Markle told the Daily Mail he’d intended keeping the letter private but was enraged by reports he only replied because he was interested in staging a photo opportunity between the…

Over the past two decades, Deborah Mailman has become one of the best-known faces on Australian TV thanks to a varied career taking in everything from intense drama Mystery Road to children’s show Play School. Next up, one of her most challenging roles yet: Alex Irving in ABC drama Total Control, a single mother from regional Queensland who is given a senate seat by an embattled prime minster. “She’s a fabulous character,” says Mailman, who has two sons, Henry, 12, and Oliver, 9, with husband Matthew Coonan. “There’s a lot about Alex that I admire. She’s gutsy, she’s unapologetic. She has a no bulls--t sort of attitude. And yet with all that, you think she’s a strong woman, but she’s vulnerable and filled with insecurity – she’s a walking contradiction.”…

ADAM FARRUGIA ‘MY MAFS CONNECTION’ Part-time model and plasterer Adam Farrugia never expected to land a spot on one of the country’s biggest dating shows, but it seems he didn’t really need the extra attention. “I have men and women sliding into my DMs all the time,” he tells WHO. The 27-year-old expects he will also be popular in Love Island Australia. “I reckon I’m going to be the funny guy; I’m going to be the easygoing guy that can get along with everyone,” he says. One person he will be able to rely on for support back at home is former Married At First Sight star Daniel Webb. “He’s one of my good mates,” Adam explains. Asked about his thoughts on Dan’s ex-girlfriend Jessika Power,…

El’ise & Matt ‘YOUR TANK IS EMPTY’ How physical is the work on The Block? EL’ISE It was the most physical and mental thing I’ve ever endured … When your tank is running on empty seven days per week and you’re asked to run a marathon daily, it’s almost impossible! Did you lose weight while you were on the show? MATT Within the first few weeks of being on The Block I dropped a lot of kilos. It’s purely the physical side of things – there was so much demolition to do, you just don’t stop. We eat right and do the right things, but it’s a lot. Was it hard to maintain a healthy diet on set?

As the weather warms up, so begins that time of year to start prepping for different kinds of makeup and coverage. If you’re lucky enough to already be boasting a ‘holiday glow,’ then you may need to deepen your shades – or if you’re still transferring from winter to spring, then you might just consider changing to a more lightweight formula. Foundation coverage can also just be as simple as personal choice over seasonal changes, according to Priceline makeup director, Sarah Laidlaw. “The current product formulations give us more choices than ever before. There are oil-free matte foundations to help control oilier skins, or there are oil-based foundations for skin that gets surface-dry.” If you have pigmentation, freckles, redness or uneven skin tone and you like to mask it, then…

Side sleeper If you’re a side sleeper you need to maintain a straight spine, so get a pillow with a curved support so your head doesn’t hang lower than the midline of your body. Back sleeper “Due to the smaller curvature of the cervical spine there’s only a small gap to fill, so a lower profile pillow may be all you need,”says Christianson. Tummy sleeper “The main factor is the extra degree of neck rotation,”says Christianson. The best pillow for you?“Look for shapes and designs that help lessen the rotation angle of the neck.” Mixed sleeper For those who sleep in mixed positions, choose a pillow with a large and small curve so you can adjust the height depending on whether you’re on your back or side. To find your…

Watching the first episode of this Canadian series is an experience like no other. You might find yourself thinking, “What are they saying?” or “What on earth is going on?” or “What the hell is this show!?” But you will probably also laugh. A lot. Set in the fictional rural town of Letterkenny, Ontario, the bizarre comedy is anchored by siblings Wayne (Keeso), who runs a produce stall with two friends, and Katy (Michelle Mylett), who is in a relationship with two aggro hockey players. Like fellow Canuck comedy Schitt’s Creek, it perfectly captures the quirks of small-town life, but does so in a much wilder way. (Starts Tue.,  Oct. 15 at 9.30pm; SBS VICELAND)…
