It’s the end of an era. After 14 years of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, America’s first family of reality TV have called it quits. While the writing’s been on the wall for some time, it’s still come as a shock to the WHO team. Since 2007, the Kardashian clan have been in our living rooms, inviting us into their lavish and crazy – yet relatable – lives. We’ve seen them through marriages, break-ups, babies, career changes and even a gender transition. Their highs and lows became our water-cooler topic, and we’ve grown up with them. But for reasons revealed on page 18, this chapter has well and truly come to a close and we can’t wait to see what the famous brood do next. Talking of new beginnings, Jennifer…

Sports stars Lisa Curry and Grant Kenny announced on September 14 that their eldest daughter, Jaimi Lee Curry Kenny, had tragically passed away aged 33. “It is with a very heavy heart that Lisa and I confirm that our beautiful daughter Jaimi has lost her battle with a long-term illness and passed away peacefully in hospital this morning in the company of loving family,” Grant said in a statement. “Our hearts are broken and the pain is immense but we must move forward cherishing every wonderful moment we got to share with our treasured first child.” Queensland’s The Courier-Mail newspaper reported that Jaimi had “secretly battled an eating disorder in the years and months before her tragic death”. Olympic swimmer Lisa, 58, and Ironman champion Grant, 57, married in 1986…

While they attempted to keep their engagement on the down low for months, no-one was surprised when Lily Allen tied the knot with David Harbour in a Las Vegas chapel on September 8. Having obtained a marriage license the day before, the singer and the Stranger Things actor were married by an Elvis impersonator at the celebrity-friendly Graceland Wedding Chapel. The only guests at their intimate ceremony were her daughters, Ethel, 8, and Marnie, 7. And despite being relatively private about their year-long romance, the pair couldn’t wait to post photos from their special day on Instagram. “In a wedding officiated by the king himself, the people’s princess wed her devoted, low born, but kind credit card holder in a beautiful ceremony lit by the ashen skies courtesy of a…

The pandemic has taken its toll on a number of Hollywood relationships and Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez are no exception. The couple, who got engaged in March 2019, were forced to postpone their dream wedding in Italy earlier this year, with the singer, 51, admitting it was a massive blow. “There’s no planning right now,” she told the Today show in May of their abandoned wedding plans. “You just have to kind of wait and see how this all plays out, and it’s disappointing on one level … we had a lot of plans for this summer and this year. But everything’s kind of on hold right now.” Despite admitting she was devastated by the cancellation, the singer tried to remain positive. “I’m a little heartbroken because we did…

In November 2019, Supergirl star Melissa Benoist declared, “I’m a survivor of domestic violence,” in a candid 14-minute Instagram video in which she revealed harrowing instances of emotional and physical abuse. The actress, 31, who didn’t name the alleged perpetrator, said she hoped to motivate others to seek help. “If you’re enduring what I went through and you see this, you might be able to find the tiny straw that will break the camel’s back.” The former Glee star is one of the latest in a long line of celebrities who has spoken out about experiencing domestic violence. As the stories below demonstrate, fame is no armour against domestic violence, which, in Australia, leads to a woman being murdered by her partner every nine days. As Benoist said, “None of…

Serena Williams has triumphed over plenty of tough competition in the two and a half decades she’s dominated on the tennis court, but this spring she faced a challenge that no amount of training could have prepared her for: quarantining at home with a toddler. “Your natural instinct as a mum is like, ‘I want to protect my kid at all costs.’ You don’t know if you should even step outside, and you’re frightened,” Williams says of her first few weeks of coronavirus lockdown at home in Florida with her husband, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, 37, and their daughter Olympia, who turns 3 next month. “It’s all incredibly stressful.” By day, Williams, 38, was in full mum mode, putting on princess dance parties and baking with Olympia, but at night…

While 2020 has been all about social distancing, it’s also been a time when we’ve come to value our friends more than ever before. In their new book The Space Between, Michelle Andrews and Zara McDonald – creators of the hit podcast Shameless – reveal some of the biggest lessons they’ve learned from the pandemic. • You don’t have 15 super-close friends. Your actual circle is more like two to five people. And that’s OK, because as shitty as this situation is, it’s shown you who your people are. This tight little huddle of yours is secure and safe. • Friendships don’t have to be built on foundations of crazy drunken stories from nights out. Many are erected on the quiet building blocks of loyalty and time. Also, good books,…

A few small steps can make all the difference CREATE A DESIGNATED WORKSPACE The size of the space doesn’t matter.“Spaces can serve many functions, especially in small apartments,”Quinn explains.“During the day, your kitchen table or bedroom may turn into your office, then in the evening it goes back to being a place for a family meal or a place for a restful night’s sleep.” SET WORK VS LIFE BOUNDARIES “Do something that signals the start and end of your work,”Quinn advises.“This is when a space in your home changes functions as well – it’s a powerful change in perspective. It’s also helpful to designate lunch and coffee breaks – this helps you stay focused when you’re working.” COMMUNICATE Working alongside the people you live with can bring extra challenges. Quinn…

Inspired by the success of their rom-com Top End Wedding, actress Miranda Tapsell and co-writer Joshua Tyler created Aunty’s Wedding – the story of a little Tiwi-Island girl who bombards her maningawu (grandma) with questions about the upcoming family celebration. “I know I really would’ve appreciated a book like this growing up,” she says. “I think it’s important for lots of artists to remember that they were children once.” Here, Tapsell, 33, who co-hosts podcast Debutante: Race, Resistance and Girl Power with friend Nakkiah Lui, reflects on books and marriage with WHO … Would Aunty’s Wedding have been in your book collection as a child?

1 Bindi’s baby update Bindi Irwin and her husband, Chandler Powell, have shared an adorable update on their “Baby Wildlife Warrior”, telling fans the little one is “about the size of a hummingbird now”. The couple announced their pregnancy news last month. 2 Chris’ NSFW post Chris Evans had the best response after accidentally giving fans more than they bargained for on a recent Instagram Story.

Richards’ departure comes after fellow star…

Jennifer Aniston is no stranger to heartache. From her rocky relationship with both her parents to two failed marriages, the star has braved through time and time again. And her positive outlook on life is something she credits to battling through her own troubled upbringing. “It comes from growing up in a household that was destabilised and felt unsafe, watching adults being unkind to each other, and witnessing certain things about human behaviour that made me think, ‘I don’t want to do that,’” she told friend Sandra Bullock during a chat for Interview magazine earlier this year. “I guess I have my parents to thank. You can either be angry or be a martyr, or you can say, ‘You’ve got lemons? Let’s make lemonade.’” It’s this glass half-full approach that…

While Lopez claimed she was in “no rush” to tie the knot, the singer also revealed the couple’s four children have been begging them to wed. “They have wanted Jennifer and Alex to get married for a long time,” an insider told WHO’s sister publication People. And while they may be going through a rough patch, the pair are determined to stay strong for their blended brood. “They are still all about their family,” adds the source. “Their initial strong attraction for each other would have quickly faded if they had not been able to come together as a family.”…

Chris Evans isn’t one to flex his fame card. Even after two decades of movie stardom – including 10 box office-dominating turns as superhero Captain America that have won him a devoted fan base with nearly 14 million Twitter followers – he’s still a self-described “homebody”. Now, at a time when Evans could make almost any film he wants, the Boston native is boldly stepping into the controversial world of politics. In July he launched a nonpartisan website called A Starting Point, designed to demystify the most common political issues. “It’s not that I’m specifically drawn to politics,” he says. “It’s just when you look around, you try to figure out how you can help.” The idea was born out of his own frustration about not being able to find…

Orange wine is also known as skin-contact wine, skin fermented white wine or amber wine. Although orange wine is generating some buzz among the hipster crowd, it's actually nothing new. The first examples of orange wine date back 6000 years to Georgia. More recently, though, orange wine was quite common in Italy up until the 1960s but became unfashionable as the clearer, fresher white wines started to dominate the market. IS IT MADE FROM ORANGES? Definitely not! The name refers to the orange hue of the wine. HOW IS IT MADE? White wine is made by pressing grapes and immediately transferring the juice to ferment. Red wine is made by fermenting the juice with skin and seeds included – this is what adds the colour. Orange wine is essentially white…

JIMMY KIMMEL GOING FOR LAUGHS SANS AUDIENCE THE JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! STAR, 52, HOSTS THE EMMYS FOR THE THIRD TIME. How do you plan a virtual award ceremony? It starts with a lot of questions and a lot of scenarios, and then we never seem to get beyond that. So it’s like,“If this happens, what will we do?”And then somebody thinks of something else that might happen. Will it be easier or harder to host than previous Emmys? It’s harder and a completely different ball game. There’s no audience. As a comedian, getting no laughs – which is certainly something I’ve become accustomed to, even in front of audiences – is tough. That’s the measure of whether something was funny. So the challenge is how to make it feel like…

While Aniston’s former Friends co-stars Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow are still good pals of hers, the likelihood of an on-screen reunion is looking less and less by the day. “Jen’s thinking of walking,” an insider tells WHO of the highly anticipated reunion. “The Friends reunion was supposed to be fun, but it’s turned into this big, stressful mess.” With the pandemic halting filming back in August, the actress is now said to be having second thoughts about the whole thing. “She loves her fans but getting the gang back together at such a risky time just isn’t worth it to her,” the source explains. “A lot of her closest confidants suspect this sudden change of heart might have something to do with what’s going on in her personal life,…

BEFORE At 24, Pitt had the world at her feet. Newly graduated, she had just scored her “dream job” at Rio Tinto that required her to move to Western Australia. Hoskin gave up his policing career to join her at the mines, just months before she would get caught in a grassfire while running an ultramarathon in the Kimberley.

She underwent over 200 operations in the six months following the fire. SUPPORT Hoskin proposed in 2015 with a ring he’d bought four years earlier while Pitt was still in intensive care. She often credits his love for helping her survive.…

When you think of a modern home, what comes to mind? Perhaps it’s clean, sharp architectural lines and minimalist furniture and decor. And while that’s absolutely a part of the modern realm, this trend actually has a bunch of sub-styles you can tailor to your taste – both indoors and out. MODERN COASTAL We can all attest to how popular Hamptonsstyle homes have become, especially in Australia with our warm climate and incredible beaches in our backyards. And while the modern coastal look does share some similarities with Hamptons design, it also has its individual trademarks. “Modern coastal and Hamptons take different routes to achieve the same goal of complementing their shoreline locations, with similar colour palettes and materials choices,” says architect and James Hardie ambassador Joe Snell. “The big…

They speak the same language, so why do Americans and the British do pretty much everything differently? That’s the question model-turned-TV host Ayda Field, 41 – aka singer Robbie Williams’ better half – asks in her new podcast, Postcards From The Edge. Field, an American in the UK, tries to make sense of this endlessly baffling and frequently absurd cultural divide by sitting down with some very noted British personalities. With her guests, she explores the differences and grapples for common ground. “I didn’t really know much about anything until Rob grabbed me and dragged me to the other side of the world,” she says of making the UK her home. “When I got to England, I felt like I’d found my spirit animal people. Because they tell it to…

Is The Book of Two Ways your 26th novel? Do plots come more easily these days, and how did the idea for this one come to you? I don’t count, but I think it’s my 26th? All plots arrive differently. This one came to me when my son Kyle, who is doing an Egyptology major at university, came home reading an ancient text with that title. I said,“That’s a great name for a book.” I learned that it was a funerary text found in the coffins of nobles in Ancient Egypt – and it’s the first known map of the afterlife. If you had the right knowledge, you could choose a water route or a land route, and wind up at the same place – the Ancient Egyptian version of…

Last time I laughed until I cried I’m lucky that I have a giggle with my family every day. But the last time I had a really good belly laugh was watching Monty Python’s Life of Brian again the other night with my hubby Richard. “He’s not the Messiah, he’s just a very naughty boy,” gets me every single time. Last treat I got for myself A red-light facial mask that makes me look like I’m on a horror movie set, but I love it. I can watch TV while giving my skin a boost.
