Is there anything more joyful than a wedding or a baby? This week, it’s been so lovely to celebrate good news and if you’re anything like me, the blossoming romance between Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde is sure to bring a smile to your face. Despite the 10-year age gap between them, they continue to grow closer and now WHO hears they’re planning the wedding to beat all weddings! What I’d give to be invited to that one. To see why, turn to page 10 to read all about their extravagant plans. There’s also another royal baby to celebrate – Princess Beatrice and husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi have welcomed a beautiful little girl. While details are still vague, one thing is for certain, she’s already a very loved little human.…

After gallivanting around Europe together during summer in the northern hemisphere, with loved-up dates and PDA aplenty, Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde have been keeping a low profile since returning stateside. But while they’ve been a little quieter on the romance front in public, insiders say plenty is going on behind the scenes – with a wedding already in the works! “They’ve only told a few people so far,” a source told OK! magazine of the nuptial plans. “Olivia and Harry want this to be a celebration that defines both of their unique personalities, so you can expect a lot of extravagant yet elegant touches, like classical musicians playing as they walk down the aisle and bold, bright tablescapes.” “They support each other”-SOURCE As WHO previously reported, Styles is said…

ISAIAH WASHINGTON The star played Dr Preston Burke in the first three seasons but was sacked after he used a homophobic slur to describe co-star TR Knight. Knight hadn’t publicly come out when the story made headlines. KATHERINE HEIGL The actress earned an unfair reputation for being “difficult” when she left to focus“on her family”. “I don’t put up with bulls--t or nasty people. I don’t have time for it,” Rhimes has said of the star. ERIC DANE His smouldering stare and sexy love scenes earned him the nickname “McSteamy”, but Dane regrets the six years he spent playing Mark Sloan. “In Grey’s Anatomy, I was just a piece of meat,” he told French news outlet Programme TV.…

It’s been almost four years since Justin Bieber and ex Selena Gomez ended things for good. And while both parties have well and truly moved on, fans can’t seem to let it go – with a group of the singer’s self-dubbed“Selenators” chanting her name when Hailey and Justin hit the red carpet recently. While the singer has been candid around the heartbreak she’s endured, recently calling her past relationships “cursed”, Gomez, 29, has always maintained she doesn’t want Hailey to take the blame.“I will never stand for women tearing other women down,” she previously said.“So please be kind to everyone.”…

First things first: it may surprise you to know that the term sustainable is not regulated in the world of beauty. As well as being essential for the planet, sustainability has become increasingly popular with consumers in recent years, but nailing down what it actually is can be a challenge. There’s a growing number of eco-friendly labels to wade through, too. Words like clean, green, natural and cruelty-free are all descriptors brands can use without having necessarily done the work to truly earn the title. If you’re lost in the confusing world of trying to buy better, here are some of our fave brands that are actively attempting to reduce their waste, minimise packaging and protect Mother Earth as much as they’re trying to take care of your face. ILIA…

From Urban Decay’s bronzed base to cerulean-washed lids courtesy of Sephora, close your eyes and imagine basking in the sunlight on an endless holiday.…

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is in October, so it’s a timely reminder to stay on top of breast health. Familiarising yourself with the look as well as the feel of your breasts is important, and while we all know lumps are one major sign to look for, there are other symptoms, too. Dr Nick Zdenkowski from Breast Cancer Trials explains what to keep an eye out for. PAIN IN THE ARMPIT AND BREAST Breast pain isn’t a common symptom of breast cancer, however if the pain is new and persistent, speak with your doctor. Most women will experience some sort of breast pain over the course of their life. This may be accompanied by tenderness, lumpiness, fullness, heaviness or an increase in breast size. The discomfort can also extend to…

He’s been gracing our screens since the ’70s and now Bryan Brown can add published author to his résumé. The actor – who has starred in local and international hits such as Two Hands and Cocktail – has written his first novel, a collection of short crime stories called Sweet Jimmy. It’s a project that’s been years in the making. “I didn’t set out to write a book,” the 74-year-old tells WHO. “I wrote the first story 35 years ago as a pitch for a film, which went nowhere, and just placed it in the back of the cupboard,” he explains. Then, two years ago, the writing bug bit again and Brown found he couldn’t stop himself from telling a few good yarns. What inspired your stories? As an actor,…

1 Adele goes Insta official They’ve been keeping things on the down low since the pair were first linked in July, but Adele has finally made things Instagram official with beau Rich Paul. The singer shared a selfie of herself and the sports agent on September 19, captioning the shot with a simple red love heart. 2 Sharon’s big tip It seems Sharon Stone’s basic instinct is to treat her waiters well! The Oscar nominee left a very large tip at New York City’s Balthazar restaurant recently – giving her server $822 for the $343 bill. “[She] was outrageously generous to her server,” restaurant owner Keith McNally wrote on Instagram. 3 Drew’s reunion fun More than 22 years after its release, Drew Barrymore reunited with the Never Been Kissed cast…

While Wilde’s relationship with Styles is getting more serious by the day, her ex Jason Sudeikis is also trying his best to move on. The 46-year-old, who was linked to model Keeley Hazell earlier this year, was again spotted with the Ted Lasso guest star on September 12. They were recognised while hiking in Los Angeles, with the pair smiling and chatting as they walked side by side. It’s the first time Sudeikis and Hazell, 35, have been seen together in months. But despite their obvious ease in each other’s company, insiders insist the pair are “just friends”. “It’s not a romantic relationship,” a source told WHO’s sister publication People magazine.…

Amy Schumer is finally on the mend after years of pain and trauma from endometriosis. The actress shared a health update with fans via Instagram on September 18, revealing that she had recently undergone surgery to have her uterus and appendix removed due to her debilitating diagnosis years previously. “If you have really painful periods you may have #endometriosis,” the 40-year-old shared alongside a snap of herself in a medical gown. In the next slide, Schumer opened up about the procedure in a video filmed by husband Chris Fischer from her hospital bed. “So, it’s the morning after my surgery for endometriosis and my uterus is out,” she explained. “The doctor found 30 spots of endometriosis that he removed. He removed my appendix because the endometriosis had attacked it.” In…

The eldest daughter of Prince Andrew, Duke of York, and Sarah, Duchess of York, gave birth to a baby girl at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London on September 18. Beatrice’s younger sister Princess Eugenie, 31, who welcomed her son August Brooksbank back in February, shared her delight that the pair will get to experience being new mums together. “I can’t wait to meet her and I’m so proud of you,” Eugenie said in a tribute to her older sibling on social media. “We’re going to have so much fun watching our children grow up,” she added. The newborn – whose name is yet to be announced – is the Queen’s 12th great-grandchild and is 11th in…

Matthew McConaughey has been coy about his political ambitions since he revealed in March he was “seriously considering” running in the 2022 election to be the governor of Texas. But it looks like the actor, 51, is finally getting ready to make a big announcement. McConaughey held a BBQ at his lakeside mansion home near Austin, Texas, on September 4, where no less than six political consultants mingled among the Magic Mike stars family and friends, reported The Times. Also in attendance were two key advisers who were pivotal in the success of fellow A-lister Arnold Schwarzenegger’s 2003 bid to become the governor of California. “Matthew is very appealing personally, very ‘old boy’ Texas,” a source told the newspaper. “But he must put in the work. That is why the…

She’s endured heartbreak that no person should ever have to go through, with more miscarriages than she “could confidently count” and numerous IVF cycles and losses. But Gabrielle Union says the pain of learning her now-husband Dwyane Wade, 39, had fathered a child with another woman is almost indescribable. The 48-year-old opened up about the betrayal in her recently released book You Got Anything Stronger?, revealing in a raw account that the experience left her “shattered”. “To say I was devastated is to pick a word on a low shelf for convenience,” she wrote. “There are people – strangers I will never meet – who have been upset that I have not previously talked about that trauma. I have not had words, and even after untold amounts of therapy I…

He’s the Melbourne-born chef-turned-small screen success story. A celebrity restaurateur who has conquered the US, and now counts the likes of Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres amongst his biggest fans. Since relocating stateside 15 or so years ago, Curtis Stone has built an enviable foodie empire that sees him fronting a string of top-rating TV shows and managing two of Los Angeles’ hottest restaurants. But success and stardom haven’t been enough to shield him from COVID-19’s devastating impact on the hospitality industry. And while his business has been hard hit, there’s been an upside to the global pandemic: more time with his family. “It’s been the only silver lining to this terrible time,” the affable foodie says during an exclusive chat with WHO. “It’s been such a change for me,…

How do you know when you’ve made it big time? Just dropping a casual $98 million on a home, that’s how! The Weeknd recently scooped up the Bel Air mansion – with his purchase one of the most expensive sales to take place in LA this year. The LA mega home sits on a huge 1.6 acre property, but it’s what lies inside that truly takes your breath away.

PRINTS CHARMING…

Our homes are now working harder than ever for us. They’ve evolved into offices, gyms, classrooms and private escapes from the chaos of the pandemic – all while still being a place to eat, sleep and unwind. As those old dividing lines dissolve and our routines blend into one, it’s little wonder that many of us are feeling a bit fatigued. If that sounds like you it might be time to try fragrance zoning. Also known as scent-scaping, it’s the practice of using different smells to create separate areas for work, rest and play. “Fragrance zoning is exactly as the term suggests,” explains Andrew O’Keefe, director of Scent Australia Home. “Assuming you have a different scent in each zone, it can work really well when executed properly.” HOW IT WORKS…

She burst onto our screen in popular soap Neighbours in 1994. But it was Natalie Imbruglia’s singing career that skyrocketed her to stardom in 1997, with her debut album Left of the Middle – and its lead hit ‘Torn’ – selling seven million copies worldwide! So it should come as no surprise that our ’90s-obsessed selves were thrilled to hear the Australian artist is back with her first collection of new material in 12 years, Firebird. (Her 2015 album Male comprised entirely of covers.) The mum-of-one describes Firebird as “like a phoenix coming out of ashes” because the tracks are a celebration of independence – not to mention the fact they were recorded in lockdown during a pandemic. Here, she reveals to WHO what helped her find her voice again…

DEATH Norm Macdonald has passed away aged 61.

Mandy Moore After years with the condition, the actress, 37, spoke candidly about the anxiety she felt when she found out she was pregnant. “I was very hesitant to believe it and put any stock in it,” she admitted. Sophie Dillman The Home and Away star and ambassador for the condition has had three operations to help her cope.“Living with endometriosis day to day is one of the greatest struggles a woman will face; it’s debilitating,” Dillman, 28, said.

Chrissy Teigen Earlier this year, the 35-year-old had surgery to alleviate the pain caused by the condition.…

Miley Cyrus was in a sharing mood at the BottleRock Napa Valley festival on September 4. Before breaking into a rendition of Janis Joplin’s song ‘Maybe’, she bared her soul. “This song, to me, relates to the changes that I’ve been experiencing in my life, and the things that I’ve lost,” she said, referencing losing her home in the 2018 California wildfires, her divorce from Liam Hemsworth and coping with the pandemic shutting down live entertainment. “I had a theory I would die if I didn’t have a partner. If I didn’t have someone to kiss me every single night. But then this was my purpose, but this was taken from me during COVID, so then I found a new purpose and that’s music [which] is the glue over the…

The Met Gala always drums up plenty of chatter about gowns, glamour and gossip. But Justin and Hailey Bieber managed to grab a few headlines of their own after attending the event on September 13, with a sweet gesture on the red carpet leaving fans screaming, “Baby, baby, baby, oh!” While the couple were most definitely a fashion stand-out on the night – with the model wearing YSL and the singer dressed in a tuxedo from his own fashion label – it was Justin gently stroking his wife’s stomach in front of the camera that had pregnancy whispers flying. “Justin could you be more obvious,” laughed one fan of the affectionate gesture. “Definitely hinting at something,” commented another. More telling, fans admit, was Hailey quickly removing her hubby’s hand from…

Putting an acid on your skin might sound slightly terrifying at first, but you don’t have to be a scientist to find the right one for your routine. Low dosage acids in skincare can be extremely effective in fighting signs of ageing, clearing breakouts and for getting that flawlessly smooth, glowy look. We’ve enlisted Dr Michelle Rodrigues, director of Chroma Dermatology, Pigment and Skin of Colour Centre, to answer all your questions. WHAT DO ALL THESE ACRONYMS MEAN? Basically the world of acids can be divided into three categories: alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) and the underdog, polyhydroxy acids (PHAs). All are naturally derived chemical exfoliants that are added to serums, cleansers, creams or toners to essentially nibble away at the skin, either on the surface or…

ALLBIRDS VERDICT: coolest “Allbirds have really thought about what they wanted to create for active customers and they’ve nailed it with these natural leggings. Made from eucalyptus tree fibre and superfine merino wool, they’re lightweight, comfortable, and breathable. They definitely left me feeling cooler than others after going on a long walk.

I didn’t think it was possible, but these are honestly the comfiest tights I’ve ever worn and I’m living in them! The waistband doesn’t roll down either and the phone pocket definitely…

WHAT IS IT Face-to-face workouts you can do from home. THE VERDICT “With lockdowns back in full swing, the past few months have inspired me to get back into online workouts. But as much as I enjoy the flexibility of doing yoga in my trackies at home, I’ve also missed the feedback and sense of community you get in a class. Floe Fitness has the solution for that. It uses two-way video technology to stream workouts into your living room, which means your instructor can see you. Not only do you feel like you’re part of a group, it also increases your sense of accountability. I have to say, it definitely makes a difference hearing your name in class! There’s a wide range of workouts including yoga, cardio, strength, barre…

• An easy place to do a breast check is in the shower or bath. Run soapy fingertips over each breast and armpit in an up-and-down motion. Then repeat this, moving in a circular motion. • Another way to examine your breasts is in the mirror, standing with your arms by your sides, then with them raised. Look for changes in skin colour or texture, skin dimpling, nipple deformation, changes in nipple colour or fluid leaks. • Breast checks should be done monthly. However, it’s also important to monitor your breasts at various intervals during your menstrual cycle, so that you can get to know what is normal at each stage of the month. • If you do notice a change, don’t panic – nine out of 10 breast changes…

The TV adaptation of her 2018 novel Nine Perfect Strangers was easily the most highly anticipated drama series this year. And Aussie author Liane Moriarty admits she loves to see her books brought to life. “It’s a surreal, strange, wonderful and thrilling experience to watch them,” the bestselling author tells WHO. “The TV adaptations haven’t changed the way I write, but they have opened up my work to a whole new audience, which I’m very grateful for.” While the on-screen reincarnations of Strangers and Big Little Lies, which came out in 2017, haven’t remained 100 per cent faithful to her novels, Moriarty explains she doesn’t mind just one bit. “I’m always happy to hand it over and don’t hold on too tight,” she says. “Each actor brings their own experiences…

I’ve got to be coaxed onto the dance floor, but a beautiful smile will get me out there. Last injury I just had arthroscopic shoulder surgery a few weeks ago.
