A previously unseen behind-the-scenes video of Meghan Markle when she was guest editing British Vogue last August has left royal aides “cringing”, according to the Daily Mail. “This just leaves her open to ridicule. It just goes to show where their priorities lie. Likes and clicks,” the outlet quotes a source as saying. Meghan and editor in chief Edward Enninful, who wear party hats and blow party whistles in the clip, wanted to release it earlier, but were advised not to by horrified palace officials who warned it was “too self-congratulatory”, “inane” and “frivolous”. In the video, Enninful talks about when they first met. “I was like, ‘Lovely to meet you, Duchess,’ he recalls. “Then you were like, ‘Call me Meghan!’.” Both laugh at this, before Meghan reveals she initially…

She’s been trying to build a connection with her TV groom Mikey, but Sydney businesswoman Natasha can’t help but be distracted by all the gossip circulating about her private life. The 26-year-old, who applied for Married at First Sight after a broken engagement to a much older man, even had to involve police in a revenge porn case last week after an alleged sex tape appeared on social media – another struggle in what was meant to be just a different way of finding love. “It’s literally been one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do – and I’m pretty damn resilient,” Natasha tells WHO of the reality show bubble. Is Mikey the kind of guy you’d go for in real life? Mikey and I have a tonne…

WENDY & NIKKI AGES: 50 & 27 Known in local grooming circles as ‘top dog’, salon owner Wendy and her stepdaughter Nikki are licking their lips for the top prize. “I’ve been pet styling for 30 years. I’m the only groomer who has won eight Best in Shows with six totally different breeds. People get scared when I walk in the door,” says Wendy. BRAD & ANNIE AGES: 28 & 34 Taking a very different approach to the art of grooming, these close friends believe that bigger definitely means better.“My work is about transforming dogs and enhancing their prettiness. I don’t‘shave off’– I prefer to make hair look big, fluffy and gorgeous,” says Annie. DAVINA & NATASHA AGES: 33 & 30 These polar opposite besties and sisters-in-law are ready for…

ARIES MAR. 20–APR. 18 An important matter concerning money, job, travel, change or new beginnings will excite you or have you talking to family and friends. Pursuing your personal and private plans is favoured. Making up your mind when purchasing expensive goods may be difficult, you may spend more than you originally planned. Avoid rash impulsiveness. TAURUS APR. 19–MAY 20 A special person may make contact, send you a gift, or you will be remembered in some way. You’re feeling very loving and affectionate – romantic, as opposed to sexy. You want to be with those you share something with, perhaps to reminisce. Your family will be important to you and you want to be with them, especially your parents, and also your best friends. GEMINI MAY 21–JUN. 20 A…

The best-selling author of Before I Let You Go has just released her new novel, Truths I Never Told You, about a woman who unravels a family mystery. Rimmer, 39, tells WHO about the book that … … first captured her imagination as a young child It was a Sesame Street ABC book. My grandfather couldn’t read English, but I so vividly remember climbing up onto his lap as a preschooler and watching as he pointed to the letters in that book and tried to ‘read’ a story to me. … opened her eyes as a teenager I read Looking for Alibrandi by Melina Marchetta in Year 10. I related to Josie on so many levels, particularly the way she struggled to find her place within her school and her…

The 46-year-old actor stars in Sonic the Hedgehog (out now) and tells WHO about the last … … guilty pleasure he indulged Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. I eat the edges off the chocolate first. And then eat so many I make myself feel sick. … time he was starstruck I met [Sonic co-star] Jim Carrey on-set and just sort of nodded my head with a blank stare on my face. I would do his Fire Marshall Bill [from In Living Color] impression in school. That’s how I got friends. … time he sang out loud Yesterday by myself in the car I was singing Bellamy Brothers’‘Let Your Love Flow’. Then I did the thing where one hand turns up the volume and the other puts the window up so no-one…

The 64-year-old actress, who played Mrs Hughes in Downton Abbey, stars in Girlfriends (on Acorn TV from Mon., Feb. 24) as one of a trio of BFFs. Why did Girlfriends interest you? What’s not to like? You’ve got these three women at the core of the drama. They have their squabbles, but they’re three great friends who look out for each other. You caught your breath every second page – “Oh no, that’s not happening!” – and it was funny. It was appealing on all fronts. Did your character, Linda, stand out as the one you wanted to play? All the parts were wonderful, but I fancied the challenge of being a woman who’s keeping this huge secret. You would think butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth and she has…

ANNA FARIS IS ENGAGED The rumours were true, after all. After weeks of speculation, Anna Faris has confirmed she is engaged to be married to Michael Barrett, 49. The 43-year-old Mom actress revealed her happy news on The Late Late Show With James Corden on February 11, telling Corden she was getting “back on the horse”. Faris was married to Avengers actor Chris Pratt for eight years and they have a son, Jack, 7. Faris jokingly asked Corden whether he could officiate her and Bennett’s wedding, saying “I would love it if you auditioned, if you came in and read.” Faris sparked rumours in November last year when she was photographed with a new ring on her left hand. In January, Faris’ Mom co-star Allison Janney revealed the couple had…

J.Lo’s Insta bikini selfie She may be turning 51 this year, but Jennifer Lopez showed the world she’s fitter than ever in this stunning Instagram snap on Monday, captioned simply: “relaxed and recharged”. Beckhams at Mum’s fashion show As London Fashion Week came to a close, the Beckham clan were out in full force showing their support for Victoria’s Autumn/ Winter showcase. David was on dad duty in the front row with sons Romeo, 17, and Cruz, 15, while he lovingly cuddled daughter Harper, 8, on his lap. Only 20-year-old Brooklyn was absent. Sitting beside Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, it was little Harper who stole headlines wearing a couture Victoria Beckham silk floral dress. David posted an image before the show to Instagram, captioning it: “Show time @victoriabeckham. My babies…

Adele was on a high while celebrating her best friend Laura Dockrill’s wedding to Hugo White at the Mason’s Arms pub in London. Looking slim and stylish in a voluminous floral-print skirt, Adele grabbed the microphone to belt out songs with the bride including her hit ‘Rolling in the Deep’ and the Beyoncé banger, ‘Crazy in Love.’ Leaving the bash, however, she appeared agitated as she made her way to the car. After some time away from the public eye, following her split from husband Simon Konecki, announced almost a year ago, the ‘Someone Like You’ singer is juggling single motherhood and being back in the spotlight with a brand new lifestyle. These days, the mum to son Angelo, 7, is following a strict diet and fitness routine. Earlier this…

The British tabloids and cancel culture are once again being called out following the shocking death of popular Love Island UK host Caroline Flack. The 40-year-old took her own life in her London home, less than 24 hours after an ambulance visited the property. According to The Sun, Flack “refused to go to hospital” insisting she was “fine”. Last Saturday, Flack’s family confirmed the sad news with a statement to the press. “We can confirm that our Caroline passed away today, the 15th of February,” the family’s statement read. “We would ask that the press respect the privacy of the family at this difficult time and we would ask they make no attempt to contact us and/or photograph us.” The accomplished presenter was openly struggling following an incident which saw…

Tash and Amanda may be the first lesbian couple to marry on the show, but mum-of-two Mishel tells WHO that she is also open to finding love with a woman.“I’m very fluid with sexuality, I really don’t care,” Mishel says.“I don’t like using terminology like, you’re gay, or you’re lesbian, or you’re bi, or you’re pan, I hate that. You are who you are, and I fall in love with a soul or energy.” The 49-year-old is currently“married” to Steve, and has made no secret of the fact that she’s had trouble trusting in relationships after being cheated on by seven out of eight partners in the past.…

JAMIE OLIVER  Free from scandal for most of his career, the beloved British chef couldn’t stop the collapse of his Aussie chain of restaurants. Only four outlets remain while Oliver’s global operations struggle to refinance up to $125 million in debt. HESTON BLUMENTHAL  The popular British chef was booted from his long-held guest judging spot on MasterChef amid claims Dinner by Heston in Melbourne underpaid staff by more than $4 million over three years.

Come the revolution, when diversity is a given and not a special effort, when common sense prevails, and wrongs are set right, Nazeem Hussain will be happy to take a little edge off his comedy and go for a few more dad bits than mad bits. Until then, the creator and star of Orange is the New Brown will deliver sharp barbs with glee in Hussain That?, his sixth solo stand-up show, premiering at Adelaide Fringe on February 24. “I’m still having the same conversations with people where they’re like, ‘Oh, but you know, we’re still moving in the right direction,’” Hussain, 33, says with a hint of perplexity about the entertainment industry’s slow crawl towards inclusion. “I’ve been hearing that since I started comedy over a decade ago. But…

“I have to sometimes make it about me” Fran Drescher isn’t easily ruffled. Take, for instance, her approach to notoriously horrific LA traffic. Curled up in the plush master bedroom of her beach-side Malibu home to talk to WHO, the actress and comedian remains philosophical. “You could get road rage and think, ‘Oh God, I’ve got to get to where I’m going!’ Or you can think as Buddhists do: Look around, take that in, and maybe see something that will surprise you,” she says. “It helps you to accept life as it presents itself and be grateful for it.” Yet finding calm amid chaos certainly didn’t come easily for Drescher, whose unmistakable laugh and thick New York accent have brought joy to fans for decades. Reflecting on her darkest moments…

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt The Hollywood mega-couple’s $715 million split in September 2016 was sudden, and shocked most of the known universe. Jolie asked for full custody of their six children while Pitt was being investigated over allegations he got‘verbally abusive’ and ‘physical’ with Maddox on the pair’s private plane the day before Jolie filed for divorce. The case was dismissed, but a flurry of ugly accusations followed, and their clashes over the kids wound up surfacing in public court documents. A judge ruled that Jolie could lose custody if she didn’t allow them each to form a‘healthy and strong relationship’ with their dad. She claimed he hadn’t paid her any meaningful child support, but Pitt’s lawyer hit back the next day, accusing her of manipulating media coverage to…

You take reusable bags to the supermarket and have banished plastic straws from your life. But in the wake of Australia’s devastating bushfire season, we’ve all become hyper aware of the need to do more. According to Dr Ella Oar, a postdoctoral research fellow at Macquarie University’s Centre for Emotional Health, eco-anxiety has been recognised as a mental health issue by a number of researchers and one of the most effective ways to beat it is to take action – no matter how small. ‘START SLOW. MAKE A SMALL SWITCH EACH MONTH’ Lottie Dalziel, founder of Banish, an educational resource and platform for disposable product alternatives. Stop buying pre-packaged produce I’d love for Aussies to say goodbye to plastic packaging in the fruit and veg section of the supermarket! Why…

The rosé trend has been gaining traction for approximately five years. So, as our loyalty to the pink wine is unwavering, is it fair to still call it a trend? I think the time for that has definitely passed! Like everything else, wines and cocktails have trends – think the aperol spritz and espresso martinis. And while rosé first emerged as a trend five years ago, it has now cemented its place as an essential part of any wine list, party or celebration, as well as being as much of a summertime staple as watermelon and beer. Charlotte Plowman, co-founder of specialist New Zealand rosé producer, Waiana Estate, shares her ultimate guide to pairing food with their leading rosé blend, Indian Summer. SEAFOOD “We recommend shellfish, prawns or crab to…

A long time coming, the fifth album from the Canadian electronic artist has been described by her as a concept album about a goddess of climate change who “relishes the end of the world”. As such, there’s a darkness to Miss Anthropocene that sets it apart from 2015’s Art Angels. Musically, the bulk of the album features Grimes’ ethereal vocal floating over layers of synths – like on singles ‘Violence’ and ‘So Heavy I Fell Through the Earth’ – although the acoustic guitar-driven ‘Delete Forever’ is a notable departure. (Out Fri., Feb. 21)…

There are a lot of opinions and statistics about the policies successive governments have enacted in relation to Indigenous Australians, but this new documentary takes a more personal approach. From director Maya Newell (Gayby Baby), In My Blood It Runs follows 10-year-old Arrernte Aboriginal boy Dujuan, who is falling short of the expectations on him at school but who thrives in a more traditional setting. The stark difference between his engagement in different environments and the opportunities afforded to him point to a broken, inflexible system. (Out now)…

The 90-minute first episode of this unique and sometimes quite shocking new drama takes a long time to get to the point, which is that a group of vigilantes led by Meyer Offerman (a thickly accented Pacino) tracks down and kills former Nazis living in the US in 1977. As we reach that premise, we spend time getting to know Jonah (Lerman), a young man who deals drugs to make ends meet but is by no means a gangster. The story of how Jonah becomes caught up in the Nazi hunters’ world plays out alongside flashbacks to specific acts of despicable cruelty committed in Hitler’s Germany. Those scenes are confronting, and all the better for it, reminding of the monstrosities committed in the lead-up to and during World War II.…

“I haven’t shopped in a year … my New Year’s resolution was to not buy any new clothes, new makeup, jewellery.” The Hunger Games actress Julianne Moore, on a quest to avoid shopping, has gone minimal. “And he waved at me and I went, ‘That’s Brad Pitt!’ ” Gilmore Girls’ Lauren Graham on mistaking her Parenthood co-star Dax Shepard for Brad Pitt. “I told her, ‘I wish you lots of failure young … you have to get smacked in the face.’ ” Lionel Richie on warning daughter Sofia about how tough showbiz would be. “The cost of diapers has reduced dramatically in our home.” Zoe Saldana on toilet training her youngest son.…

Pictured together for the first time since quitting as senior royals, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle appeared carefree and relaxed as they stepped off of a commercial flight in Victoria, Canada, on Valentine’s Day. Meghan was sustainably stylish, carrying her eco-friendly Prada bag, and wearing flats made by Rothy’s, a San Francisco company that creates shoes out of recycled water bottles. In the weeks since they announced they were ditching ‘The Firm’, the Sussexes have been spending most of their days holed up in a $21 million Vancouver Island mansion, where a source tells WHO they had been “enjoying the quiet life … they are real homebodies who love to chill out with Archie and the dogs”. But, despite all the cooking, yoga and nature walks, things are not as…

A mid turbulent times for the royal family, Kate Middleton has steadily been staying the course, throwing herself into managing motherhood and a ramped-up workload. Her past month has been a whirlwind, travelling to the four corners of the UK promoting a new initiative for early childhood development. One morning, she was feeding baby lambs on a farm in Northern Ireland before making her way to prepare food in a cafe benefiting the homeless in Aberdeen, Scotland. In her wake, she’s winning fans, charming children – and scoring points with her husband, Prince William. “The Cambridges are busier than ever since Harry and Meghan left,” a source told Us Weekly. “You’d think their hectic schedule would put a strain on the marriage, but it’s actually brought them closer together.” In…

When Brad Pitt made his way backstage after his emotional Oscar acceptance speech, he first gave presenter Regina King a long, warm hug before letting out an audible but quiet sigh. “Whoooo,” he said to no-one in particular, taking a long sip of water as dozens of well-wishers started to congratulate him. “I’m just trying to catch my breath!” It’s been a whirlwind couple of months for Pitt, 56. For much of the past few years, in the wake of his difficult divorce from Angelina Jolie, he had rarely been seen in public, let alone on red carpets. But as acclaim poured in for his performance in Once upon a Time … in Hollywood, he embraced awards season – and showed off the easygoing charisma fans first fell in love…

MIKE THALASSITIS When Thalassitis ended his life in 2019, urgent calls were made for improved aftercare for people who take part in reality TV shows. “Love Island have got to open their eyes to this,” The Only Way is Essex star Mario Falcone said.

She was crowned Miss Newcastle in 2008 and Miss Great Britain in 2009 and appeared on Love Island in 2016.…

She hasn’t been married for long, but Aleksandra has already had a makeover since becoming Ivan’s wife. “I feel like I definitely have lost a bit of weight, changed the hair colour – that was maybe a little camouflage to not be so recognised,” the newly-blonde real estate agent says. Aleks, 27, and Ivan, 30, have been getting along so far this season, but the bride tells WHO she’s been struggling with her partner’s two personalities. “When it was just us two alone, he was amazing – I couldn’t fault him, he treated me like a princess,” she says. “But in social settings, especially around other women, I felt quite degraded, like I wasn’t enough for him. I’ve told him multiple times but a leopard doesn’t change its spots.” Aleks…

Since the Claremont murders trial got underway in November last year, 23 years since the first victim vanished, the public gallery in Perth’s Supreme Court has been packed daily – and it comes as no surprise to veteran local reporter Alison Fan. “These crimes changed the face of Perth,” says the former Seven News reporter, who came out of semi-retirement to cover what the local media is calling “the trial of the century”. “Because a serial killer could affect anybody. And it was in Claremont – a wealthy, quiet area where nothing bad ever happened. These were girls who were plucked off the street. It affected everybody’s lives.” Those women were secretary Sarah Spiers, 18, childcare worker Jane Rimmer, 23, and lawyer Ciara Glennon, 27, all of whom disappeared between…

Meant to Shine “I was always intrigued by acting,” says Drescher (in 1975), who studied theatre in high school. Saturday Night Fever Her first notable role was in the 1977 disco-themed mega-hit, where her character asked John Travolta about his skills in bed.

There’s a distinct humidity that hits the minute the airport doors open to the outside world in Singapore, one that reminds me of the first time I visited this city island nation taking in all the oversized landmarks and Instagram-worthy structures. This trip, I’m travelling with my husband Jason for a quick 48 hours where we plan on avoiding the tourist hotspots like Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay and the Botanic Gardens, though all are worth squeezing in for a first-timer. For this visit, I’m staying at Six Senses Duxton on Duxton Road and, as we’re nearing our destination around 8pm, a crowd of stylish locals spill out of bars and restaurants celebrating the end of the working week. The Duxton Hill area – between Chinatown and the…

It’s amazing what winning best picture at the Academy Awards can do for a film. For one thing, Parasite’s victory at the recent Oscars prompted me to finally stop saying, “I should really see that movie”, and actually watch it. For months, I’ve had it on my to-see list – it did come out in mid-June 2019, after all – but I only just got around to it. I guess I’m not alone since Parasite has recently expanded onto more cinema screens nationally even though it is already out digitally and on DVD. After eight months of being a word-of-mouth sensation, it has now received the greatest recommendation there is courtesy of the Academy Awards voters. The good news for those of you who still haven’t seen the South Korean…

Margot has avoided home for years, while Kit can’t forgive her for something terrible she did as a teenager. Meanwhile, Eve’s marriage is faltering and Lucy’s likely hiding something. As for once-respected playwright Ted, he never got over Kit’s success as a commercial novelist and broke up the family by finding comfort elsewhere. Slowly, the family reveals its long-buried secrets, including the reason for Margot and Kit’s estrangement. From the author of Secrets of the Tides, this is an evocative  and heart-wrenching read.

Ahead of Spicks and Specks: ’90s Special (airs Sun., Feb. 23 at 7.40pm; ABC), the 46-year-old reveals her ’90s highs and lows. What’s your favourite ’90s album? Blue Lines by Massive Attack was a groundbreaking record that combined hip-hop, soul, dub and dance music, and very much shaped the sound of the decade to come. And it still stands up today. What’s the ’90s song you never want to hear again? ‘Achy Breaky Heart’ was terrible then and terrible now, but I’m still strangely drawn to Billy Ray Cyrus’ magnificent mullet. Who was your favourite Spice Girl? Ginger Spice, because she was the mouthy, feminist one and came up with their slogan ‘girl power’. Allegedly. Best ’90s soundtrack? Every share house had a copy of the Pulp Fiction soundtrack and…
