Bennifer is Instagram official! This is not a drill, and Team WHO couldn’t be more excited if we tried! The couple have kept us somewhat guessing their relationship status and our very own Picture Editor Linda was questioning whether or not it was one big showmance. But by their very own accounts, Bennifer is not only back – they’re also madly in love! WHO hears the couple are moving at breakneck speed and already planning to say “I do”. And with J.Lo looking hotter than ever at 52, we have no doubt she’s going to make one stunning bride. For all the details, go to page 10. Talking of breathtaking brides, Princess Diana’s niece Lady Kitty Spencer tied the knot to her millionaire fiancé Michael Lewis in not one but…

Following in the footsteps of her late aunt Diana, it was a royal wedding that suddenly thrust Kitty into the spotlight. The private socialite came to public prominence after she stole the show in a stylish green floral Dolce & Gabbana dress while attending her cousin Prince Harry’s wedding in 2018. Overnight, Kitty’s Instagram following leapt from 37,000 to half a million. “I woke up the next day and looked at my phone and thought, ‘Whoops, did I take someone else’s by mistake?’” she told Town & Country. “It was very weird, and a little bit overwhelming.” Since then, Kitty was selected to model for designer brands, becoming the face of Bulgari and Dolce & Gabbana.…

Reboots and revivals are everywhere you look in Hollywood – but who could’ve guessed that the most talked about love story of 2021 would be an emotional real-life sequel featuring Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez? Part 1: back in 2004, the couple broke off their engagement after an intense relationship that played out in a swirl of diamonds, red carpets and tabloid headlines. Part 2: older, wiser and still passionate about each other, the superstars have rekindled their romance – and they’re determined to make it last. “Even though their split many years ago was devastating for Jennifer, she has never had a bad word to say about Ben,” a source close to the singer tells WHO’s sister publication People magazine. “She believes that it wasn’t just meant to be…

It took seven weeks for Lilibet “Lili” Diana Windsor to officially be added to the royal family’s plan of succession. But Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have come up with a scheme to ensure everyone remembers their American-born daughter is still a royal. The couple is reportedly demanding that Lili be christened at St George’s Chapel in Windsor, just like her big brother Archie, 2. The pair are also “happy to wait” and hold off the event until a time that suits Queen Elizabeth, 95, revealed the MailOnline. While Lili is currently eighth in line to the British throne, not everyone thinks the Sussexes should still be included. “Harry isn’t functioning as a royal anymore and his children aren’t being raised as royals, either,” royal commentator Jane Barr tells WHO.…

While you might recognise him predominately from his high-profile relationship with actress Halle Berry, Aubry has enough fashion credibility to stand on his own two feet. Aubry was discovered while clubbing in his native Canada, quickly becoming a highly sought after model. During the height of his modelling career, he posed for the likes of Calvin Klein and DKNY, among many other designers. In 2005, Aubry began dating Berry after meeting at a photo shoot for fashion label Versace – with things getting serious between the pair soon after. Their daughter Nahla, now 13, was born in 2008, but the duo split in 2010 and were caught up in a nasty custody war for much of the next few years. A former restaurateur, Aubry is also quite the sportsman, playing…

After stepping out for a July 22 Omega-sponsored dinner at Nobu London, Lily Allen, chic in a Chanel top teamed with white sneakers, posted pics on Instagram of her stylish outing. Soon, she was fielding questions from concerned fans who took note of her small frame. “Seriously, where do you get off ?” Allen, 36, responded to one since-deleted comment. “You know NOTHING about me or my lifestyle.” Later, she offered more insight into that lifestyle after she shared a video of herself behind the scenes on The Lateish Show with Mo Gilligan. “You’ve never seen me two years completely sober, not smoking and exercising every day,” Allen, who frequently posts pics in her workout wear, wrote after a fan implored that she “Please take care, dear”. “I just didn’t…

This full-time model might be known to her friends as“Miss Congeniality”, but Shannon Lawson, 30, is not here to play.“I knew I would be underestimated when I arrived in camp and on the Brawn tribe because it happens to me everyday,”she says.“I had a target on my back from day one. People assume that as a model that I’m not smart or not strong, but I’ve been successful in my career and athletic my whole life.” With an alliance of alpha males forming on the Brawn tribe, headed by carpenter Simon Mee, 31, Lawson quickly teamed up with fellow contenders including Flick Palmateer, 28, and Kez McGee, 25, to create a female alliance.“I had to rally pretty quickly and in those girls, especially, I found players who also wanted to…

Hi darlings! My name’s Deni, my pronouns are they/them and today I’m here to talk about …” This is how inimitable celebrity stylist-turned-LGBTQIA+ activist Deni Todorovic introduces themselves these days – and they’re hoping it soon becomes the norm for everyone. “Being misgendered can be really grating on you and your self-worth,” explains Deni, who – with a fast-growing 40,000-strong Instagram following – is on the precipice of sparking huge social change.“But with more awareness and knowledge, we have more power.” If you’ve walked past The Body Shop lately, you will have seen Todorovic’s face (and one incredible hot-pink gown) front and centre on billboards and posters as part of the brand’s Self Love Uprising campaign. Or perhaps you caught the bubbly creator on the ABC TV series Art Works,…

Bright and vivacious, Helene Pruszynski seemed to have a limitless future ahead of her. A broadcasting major at Wheaton College in Massachusetts, she moved to Denver in January 1980 to begin her dream internship in the news department at KHOW radio and was happily assisting with reporting on breaking-news assignments. But two weeks into the job, on January 16, the ambitious 21-year-old left the station following her shift to begin the hour-long commute to her aunt and uncle’s house in suburban Englewood, Colorado – and never made it home. The next day her partially nude body was found in a field, her hands bound; she had been raped and stabbed nine times in the back. While investigators found footprints and tire tracks at the scene, they were unable to close…

What was the inspiration behind your beauty range, James Cosmetics? At the very start, it was my business partner Sam who wanted to start selling gold eye masks, and it was actually on an overseas trip that I became involved.

“We lost our handsome, talented, funny, complicated and beloved Dieter”—FAMILY STATEMENT While the star of his celebrity may have dimmed in recent years, the outpouring of grief following the tragic death of former Home and Away heart-throb Dieter Brummer was testament to just how brightly he had once shone. The actor, who portrayed Shane Parrish in the soap between 1992 and 1996, was found dead at his Glenhaven home in Sydney on the morning of July 24. Police had been called to the property to conduct a welfare check and later confirmed that his death was not believed to be suspicious. Brummer was just 45. “We lost our handsome, talented, funny, complicated and beloved Dieter on Saturday morning,” a family member posted on Facebook on July 26, announcing the news.…

It’s often said that men get better with age, but Jennifer Lopez has proved that the same can definitely apply to women! The star had fans gobsmacked when she showed off her ripped bikini body while celebrating her 52nd birthday in the South of France – and they’re not the only ones who are impressed. “I see pictures of myself in my 20s and go, ‘Oh, I look better now!’” Lopez previously said of feeling good in her 50s. “I embrace who I am. I feel sexy, I feel youthful.” The singer’s fit physique doesn’t just come from good genes. Lopez works out at least five times a week, doing a combination of dance-cardio workouts and weights. She also makes sure to keep her diet as clean as possible, focusing…

His Apple TV Plus comedy series Ted Lasso is currently a huge hit and it seems Jason Sudeikis has found himself a fan in Irina Shayk. The actor, 45, and model, 35, were spotted at the Hunt & Fish Club in New York on July 20 – with the pair sharing a tender moment after dinner with friends. The duo were at the restaurant to celebrate the birthdays of two of Sudeikis’ co-stars. “Irina and Jason were invited through a mutual friend of their agent,” a source told Page Six of the celebratory dinner. The pair looked very friendly as they left the restaurant well after midnight, continuing their conversation outside before sharing a close embrace. The outing comes after it was reported that Sudeikis is no longer “casually” seeing…

On July 19, Locky Gilbert and Irena Srbinovska celebrated their first anniversary with a loved-up vacation at Sal Salis luxury lodges in Exmouth, after they fell in love during the 2020 season of The Bachelor. Since the pair started their new chapter together, they have enjoyed an epic seven-month road trip around the country, soaking up as much sun and adventure as possible. But as picture perfect as their life looks, the couple admits their first year has seen them face some “amazing highs and devastating lows”. Things got off to a rocky start for Srbinovska when she left behind her friends and family in Melbourne to make the move to join her beau in Perth. Suddenly thrust into the spotlight, the 31-year-old nurse had to deal with intense online…

Adecade ago, Ryan Reynolds met Blake Lively when the pair played love interests in the 2011 superhero flick Green Lantern. At the time, Reynolds’ marriage to Scarlett Johansson was on its last legs, and Lively was in a relationship with her Gossip Girl co-star Penn Badgley. The movie was a box office flop and copped abysmal reviews, but from that film grew an enduring love story worthy of a rom-com. “We’ve been together almost 10 years,” Reynolds boasted on the July 19 episode of the SmartLess podcast. “That’s, like, 45 years in Hollywood terms.” “A week later I was like, ‘We should buy a house together.’ And we did”— REYNOLDS In the same conversation, Reynolds, 44, recalled how he and Lively were “friends and buddies” before sparks first flew, saying,…

For Australian Survivor’s self-confessed “Plant-based Superman”, the fact he’s already being described as the show’s biggest villain is not a surprise. “My original plan was to go into camp and fly under the radar, but when I got there I was so excited and couldn’t help but unleash my beast side. I know, he’s a bit polarising,” 31-year-old health coach Emmett Pugh tells WHO. “There are actually two sides to me though. Plant-based Superman is an alter ego I created for myself three years ago when I embraced a mostly plant-based diet. His attributes are confidence, determination, persistence, focus and a relentless desire to succeed. He’ll do whatever it takes to win.” Including, it seems, gloating when succeeding in challenges and taking part in blindsides! You’ve also been called cocky…

Former Miss Universe Australia Renae Ayris says becoming a mum has always been high up on her to-do list. “Even when I was in school, I always used to write ‘I want to be a mum’ when asked what I wanted to do when I grew up,” the 30-year-old confesses to WHO. “That’s always something that I wanted and that’s always been at the forefront of my mind since we got married.” After tying the knot with now-husband Andrew Papadopoulos, 31, in a stunning ceremony in NSW’s Hunter Valley in November 2019, the newlyweds were ready to start their family. Only, like many couples, they found the months passing, frustratingly waiting for those two lines to appear on the pregnancy test. “Particularly when you’re young and you’re told that [if]…

1“Style is all about who you are,” says Deni Todorovic, “so start by writing down five words that represent you. They don’t have to be related to clothes at all. In fact, I’d prefer they aren’t. Think things like joy, strength, passion, loyalty.” 2“Now think about how those words translate to an aesthetic. So, if you’ve written down‘strong’, which pieces of clothing make you feel strong? Which colours make you feel strong?” 3“Next, I want you to look at your body in the mirror – preferably naked. I want you to tell your body that you love it. And then I want you to see what you’re working with. For such a long time, we’ve worked against our bodies and enough is enough. For me, I’m quite a short human,…

DID – formerly multiple personality disorder – is a trauma-induced condition characterised by multiple identity states. “It is typically the result of severe childhood abuse,” says Dr Bethany Brand, professor of psychology at Towson University. “People disconnect from the trauma memory so they can function.” Afflicting one per cent of the general population (in the US), DID “is misunderstood and underdiagnosed”, Brand says, and should preferably be treated by therapists who are “trained in treating dissociative disorders”.…

In 2017 police uploaded DNA collected from Helene’s clothing into genealogy databases including ancestry.com and gedmatch.com and identified several individuals who were distantly related to the killer. As they traced the family tree, they homed in on a man once known as Curtis White, who had moved to Florida and changed his name to James Curtis Clanton. After tracking Clanton’s movements, investigators followed him to a bar and surreptitiously collected a beer mug he had used. The DNA on the mug proved a match to the killer.“People think that this was solved because,‘Oh, DNA technology,’”says former federal DA George Brauchler.“But it’s modern, cutting-edge technology on familial DNA, combined with old-fashioned shoe-leather detective work.”…

As the mercury drops, we all make style tweaks to compensate. There are the obvious changes: coats and jackets come out of storage, denim is on high rotation and anything off-the-shoulder is benched. But most of us make a few tonal changes as well, seeking out cooler tones including steely greys, blues and mauves. If you’re going to switch up your winter wardrobe, you might want to invest in a new lipstick, too. Stuck in a rut of the same old colours?

WHAT IT IS A form of static stretching in which a professional assisted stretcher (aka a flexologist) moves your limbs into positions and applies gentle force to lengthen and stretch your muscles. It boasts benefits such as improved mobility, increased circulation, muscle recovery and, of course, increased flexibility. THE VERDICT “As someone who regularly practises yoga, I would describe my flexibility as ‘above average’, so I wasn’t sure exactly what I would get out of an assisted stretching session, beyond just a pleasant stretch. Nonetheless, I was extremely excited to give it a go. “After arriving at the Stretch Studio in Sydney’s Darlinghurst, my flexologist Kayla greeted me with a beaming smile and invited me over to the stretching bed, which was similar to a massage table but shorter and…

DON’T FORGET TO HYDRATE Dehydration is often mistaken for hunger. If plain water doesn’t appeal, sip warm water with lemon, or add fruit such as strawberries and mint leaves to a jug.

And Just Like That… filming has started on the revival of the iconic Sex and the City series, 17 years and two feature films since its last episode. Earlier this month, Sarah Jessica Parker took to the streets of New York City to start production for the show’s eagerly anticipated return, with the star, 56, dusting off her Manolo Blahniks before teaming up with co-stars Kristin Davis, also 56, and Cynthia Nixon, 55, on set. Although famed costume designer Patricia Field hasn’t returned to lend her sartorial flair to the show due to scheduling conflict with Netflix’s Emily in Paris, Carrie, Charlotte and Miranda’s fashion senses appear to have kept up with the times – with the trio donning a number of stylish numbers in snaps from their first days…

Last time I sang out loud I picked up my daughter [Sage, 13] from school and we often listen to Folklore by Taylor Swift. It’s the first album that we both love and know all the lyrics to. We just belt it out morning and night. Last thing I discovered about myself I actually really like more of a quiet life. I know lockdown has been difficult for many people, but it’s been great to have no obligations. I’ve been reading, writing, exercising; doing all the things I generally find difficult to find time to do. Last moment of self-care I booked an urban weekend yoga workshop with my favourite teacher I went on a retreat with in India, like, 20 years ago. Just all for me, which is very…

Almost 40 years to the day since her aunt Diana Spencer married Prince Charles in an event dubbed the “wedding of the century”, a new Spencer bridal icon was born. Walking down the aisle on July 24 in a custom Victorian-inspired gown made with delicate lace, Lady Kitty Spencer drew comparisons to the late Princess of Wales as she tied the knot with her millionaire fiancé, Michael Lewis. “Absolutely breathtaking. She looks just like Diana,” commented one social media user. The sophisticated British socialite, 30, dipped into her stylish wedding trousseau and donned no less than seven exquisite dresses made by Dolce & Gabbana over the three-day celebration extravaganza. A star-studded guest list including Idris Elba and his wife Sabrina and British pop star Pixie Lott joined the happy couple…

Kristy Wright The actress, who played Chloe Richards on the show, dated Brummer after he left the series. “We were each other’s safety blankets and we were best friends. Even after we broke up years later, our friendship never died,” she wrote on Instagram. “A luminous, unique, complex man.” Bancks Tristan “Dieter was a fun, playful, deep-thinking guy who made life an adventure,” said author Bancks, who played Tug O’Neale on Home and Away alongside Brummer.

When the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down from their royal roles in early 2020, Prince Harry explained that it was “never part of the plan” to sign a deal with Netflix. But new evidence suggests that Meghan Markle may have been arranging her big comeback to Hollywood long before Megxit! On July 14, the former actress, who turns 40 on August 4, announced she was co-creating and producing an animated series for the streaming giant along with David Furnish. The filmmaker, who is the husband of Elton John, is behind hit family films including Gnomeo and Juliet. Their project will feature a young heroine “named Pearl who finds inspiration in influential women from history”. A source close to Meghan told Page Six the series has been in the…

Besides persistent whispers of a flirtation with ex-husband Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston’s love-life has been rather quiet of late. The 52-year-old split with her second husband Justin Theroux in 2017 and since then has been focusing on her career and spending time in the company of her group of girlfriends. “She loves her tribe of women friends and her dogs,” an insider has said of the star. “That’s very fulfilling to her.” However, with Los Angeles starting to open up again after an extended lockdown in 2020, thanks to the global pandemic, Aniston is ready to let loose – starting with an exciting, fun-filled fling with model Gabriel Aubry, 44. “Jen is so happy to be having fun again, but she’s doing things differently this time around,” a source told…

It’s been 21 years since Matt Shirvington donned the green and gold while competing for Australia at the Sydney 2000 Olympics. But the track star will be front and centre of the delayed Tokyo 2020 Games as he leads Channel Seven’s afternoon coverage as a commentator. “I’ve been involved as an athlete and a broadcaster and it’s much harder doing the commentary,” the 42-year-old former sprinter tells WHO with a laugh. “I used to run 100 metres then had a rest. But in broadcasting, we work around the clock,” he explains. The five-time Australian 100m sprint champion came fourth at the 1998 Kuala Lumpur Commonwealth Games, smashing the Australian 100m record in the process. Even though he held the national sprint title until 2002, an Olympic medal remained elusive. But…

“I’m one of five kids. My husband is one of four, so we’re officially breeders,” Lively has said.

A diagnosis of unexplained infertility is given when a woman or couple has been unsuccessfully trying to fall pregnant for 12 months or more and all common causes of infertility in both partners have been ruled out. With one in six Aussie couples diagnosed with some form of infertility, it’s estimated that up to 30 per cent of these will be “unexplained”. This can be an incredibly frustrating and disappointing outcome, as many feel no closer to understanding why they’re struggling to conceive. But there is help and support available.

“God has turned this story into something good for us”—POGU It was a moment of celebration for all 860 graduates from Southeastern University in Lakeland, Florida, on April 30 as sparklers lit up the stage, signalling the end of the commencement ceremonies. But for 23-year-old Lydia Pogu, who received her bachelor’s degree in legal studies, and Joy Bishara, 24, who earned her BA in social work, the festivities marked a milestone the Nigerian-born women thought they might never see. “I can’t believe I’m a graduate,” says Bishara. “Sometimes I have to pinch myself and make sure I’m awake.” Just seven years ago, in April 2014, the two were among 276 teenage girls kidnapped from their school in Chibok, Nigeria, by the notorious terrorist group Boko Haram. The incident garnered global…
