It was the mystery that, for days, had me poring over my phone waiting for updates. When it was reported that the beloved British broadcaster, Dr Michael Mosley, had gone missing on his Greek island holiday, I was genuinely shocked and deeply saddened. His words of wisdom are something I’ve looked forward to reading regularly over the past few years – and it’s thanks to his tips that I’ve found myself making changes that have helped me sleep a lot better. So this letter is my own little tribute to someone who I know had a meaningful impact on many people’s lives. Thank you, Michael. And for those of you who want to discover more about this inspiring man, turn to page 16 for our three-page report. Elsewhere in this…

who’s news Updates on the condition of the Princess of Wales have been few and far between since Kate announced her shock cancer diagnosis in late March and began medical treatment. But the motherof-three is now doing much better, says royal biographer Katie Nicholl. “I’ve been told by sources very close to the Princess of Wales that she had struggled with the treatment initially,” Nicholl told The Sun’s Royal Exclusive Show. “It’s preventative chemotherapy, it’s not a pleasant thing … I think it was a struggle initially and I was very, very relieved to hear from actually more than one source that she has recently turned a corner.” Following reports that Kate, 42, might never be “returning to work in the same capacity again”, Nicholl was quick to clarify that…

who’s news In news that is making everyone feel the passing of the years, Suri Cruise is heading off to university, with the 18-year-old announcing her uni of choice in a recent TikTok video. In the clip, which was posted by a friend, each student wore a sweatshirt of their chosen school and revealed where their next chapter would take them. Suri wore a red crew neck with the title “Carnegie Mellon”, which hints she is heading off to the Pittsburgh school next semester. According to Daily Mail, the teen has been interested in studying fashion, although it is not yet known what her chosen course is. There is a suitable option at Carnegie Mellon if she did decide to take that route, and according to its website, it’s one…

The lyrics “she’s just being Miley” from her 2007 hit‘See You Again’ later became synonymous with Miley Cyrus’ rebellious era in the mid to late-noughties. While at times her behaviour – tongue poking out and all – was endearing, the majority of the time fans were worried about the child star. Fast-forward a decade, as the ‘Flowers’ singer is living her very best life – and she proudly wears the emotional scars and tattoos that remind her of the naughtier days. Now, she lives a completely clean life post-Liam Hemsworth divorce, and she has two Grammy Awards, a healthy relationship, and sparkling eyes and skin to show for it. It seems certain her friendship with Beyoncé and the influence of her godmother Dolly Parton might have something to do with…

They were the batch of Hollywood’s hot young things who could perhaps have faded to obscurity after making a few teen hits in the 1980s until a cheeky nickname propelled them to become icons. But being labelled ‘The Brat Pack’ wasn’t very welcome to the stars who earned the now legendary moniker, reveals Andrew McCarthy. “It had professional ramifications,” McCarthy told People magazine. “The public embraced us, but the business reacted to it in a negative way.” In 1985, the making of angsty teen coming-of-age dramas like St. Elmo’s Fire didn’t just launch stars like McCarthy, Demi Moore, Rob Lowe, Ally Sheedy and Emilio Estevez to fame. They ushered in a new era of filmmaking. “It changed my life,” McCarthy explains of the hit film which was a critical failure…

Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake The Disney stars-turned-pop stars sported this iconic denim on denim look at the 2001 American Music Awards. It has since inspired many a Halloween costume and become a notable pop culture moment, but it wasn’t the only time they coordinated. The pair used to dress alike pretty often – and the cameras loved it. Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox Megan Fox met MGK and quickly became the queen of grunge. Dedicated to their couple style, Machine Gun Kelly once even wore a vial of Fox’s blood as a necklace. Fox referred to her on-againoff-again partner as her ‘twin soul’ on the Call Her Daddy podcast, which may explain their twinning tendencies. They can pull off anything. Rihanna and A$AP Rocky The coolest couple on…

THE CASANOVA KILLER The day that Barbara Abel would come face to face with a vicious cold-blooded murderer started just like any other. On November 14, 1974, she woke up in her home at West Palm Beach, Florida, went to work at her job as a radio copywriter before picking up her 6-year-old son Dale after school. The only unusual thing was that her twin sister Beverly, who had cerebral palsy and lived with her, hadn’t been answering the phone when Barbara had called several times throughout the day. THE VICTIMS “When we got to the house, I called out for Beverly and told Dale, ‘Go look for her, honey,’” while I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water,” she told People magazine. “That’s when I heard…

Alittle bit of stress can actually be a good thing, providing that little kickstart we need to stop procrastinating and start nailing those long neglected goals. Too much for too long, however, can wreak havoc on your physical and mental health. “When we’re going through periods of stress, activities we would normally do day-to-day can become a lot more challenging,” says accredited practising dietitian Milly Smith. “So it’s incredibly important to put new behaviours in place to support our body, because otherwise we can fall into habits that can then have a further impact on our long-term [physical] health and mental health.” Here’s how to support your body and mind during tense times! KEEP HEALTHY FOODS ON HAND Often we reach for fast food or highly processed options when we’re…

WAVY MIRROR While it looks fantastic, this project isn’t rocket science and you can use any trim, not just wavy cuts, to make your design. Your number-one concern is the angled (mitred) joins at the corners, so you are looking for trim that isn’t too ornate because that makes creating a clean corner more complicated. WHAT YOU NEED: • Mirror, to suit your taste and space • Measuring tape • Flat decorative trim in either moisture-resistant MDF or wood • Handsaw • Pencil • Mitre saw set to 45 degrees (or use a hand saw and protractor to measure a 45 degree angle) • All-purpose glue • Paintbrush • Paint • Masking tape WHAT TO DO: 1. Measure the four sides of your mirror and cut four pieces of the…

HOT STUFF! Be warned! This isn’t called the world’s hottest gin for nothing. Tassie’s 7K Distillery has taken a juniper-heavy gin at 66.6% ABV and combined it with Carolina Reaper chilli, certified by Guinness World Records in 2017 as the world’s hottest chilli (it’s now number two). The result is a unique drink that will add extra heat to cocktails or a secret ingredient in food. Just for good measure, there’s a whole Carolina Reaper left inside each bottle to allow the spicy goodness to soak in. Once you overcome the searing heat, you’ll taste the chilli’s sweet notes as well as Australian orange peel. But with this devilish drink we’re talking drops, not shots, or you’ll literally be crying into your drink. Available from 7kdistillery.com.au for $60 while stocks…

The Baldwins have some news, and no it’s not another baby. The couple are starting a reality show with their seven children. In an announcement video that was not on anyone’s bingo card, shared on Instagram, the couple explained, “We’re inviting you into our home to experience the ups and downs; the good, the bad, the wild and the crazy.” “Home is the place we love to be most,” Alec continued. The video cuts to a chaotic family photoshoot that captures children screaming, running around and what seems like slim chance of a family portrait ever actually being captured. Sounds like just the chaos reality TV looks for. TV network TLC said in a statement about the show, which has a working title of The Baldwins, “Alec and Hilaria Baldwin…

who’s news Country singer Billy Ray Cyrus has filed for divorce from his wife, Aussie singer Firerose, after just seven months of marriage. In-court documents obtained by E! News the star cited irreconcilable differences as well as “inappropriate marital conduct” as reasons for the split. Billy Ray also requested an annulment, claiming in the documents that “he gave consent to marriage based on Fraud by the Wife, that had he known he would not have entered into the bonds of matrimony”. TMZ reported that Billy Ray gave his wife two days to move out of their shared home and paid her $500 a night for temporary accommodation for 10 days. After this, he was reportedly willing to pay her $5000 a month for housing in Tennessee for 90 days or…

Joe Jonas is moving on – for a second time – after his split from wife Sophie Turner. The singer has been getting touchy feely with a new love interest while enjoying the sun in Greece. Jonas, 34, looked cosy as he splashed about in the sea off Athens with Laila Abdallah on June 10. The actress threw her arms around him in the surf before they chatted while relaxing on lounges and enjoying some drinks. Abdallah, 28, has starred in more than 25 TV shows and is well-known in her native Lebanon. The beach date comes about two weeks after Jonas split with girlfriend Stormi Bree. He was first linked with the model, 33, in January, and she accompanied the Jonas Brothers while they were on tour in Australia.…

Calling the last 12 months a big year for Natalie Barr would be a massive understatement. Not only does she continue to set that alarm each day for her 4am wake-up call, the Sunrise star has faced a relentless news cycle, all while breaking in a new co-host. On June 12, 2023, Matt Shirvington stepped into the shoes of David Koch, who had been at the helm of Channel 7’s flagship breakfast show since 2002. While the Olympic sprinter, 45, had been presenting sports and acting as a fill-in for some time beforehand, he faced a baptism of fire on his first official full-time day. “I remember it like it was yesterday because it was such a big tragic news day. We were covering the Hunter Valley bus crash,” Barr…

Kourtney Kardashian and… Scott Disick Back in his Lord Disick days, Kardashian sported quite a preppy look beside her then-partner Disick’s suits. Think skinny jeans, blouses and blazers. The early seasons of KUWTK have all their best looks. Younes Bendjima Some may say it was her best fashion era. The duo were an extremely stylish couple despite their relationship not working. RIP to the tailored trousers, crop tops and simple ‘It girl’ outfits she once slayed. Travis Barker Kardashian’s current aesthetic is rockstar wife and being married to the drummer from Blink-182, it makes sense. Anything black, oversized and owned by Barker fits the bill these days. It looks like love! Sofia Richie and… Scott Disick It’s hard to remember a time when Sofia Richie wasn’t the poster girl for…

An angled stone, usually made out of rose quartz, the gua sha is used to massage the skin on the face and body to promote blood flow and boost lymphatic drainage. Boasting claims of bright, improved skin, as well as a “natural facelift”, the gua sha has become a must-have. Tarj Mavi, founder of natural skincare brand La Mav, shares everything you need to know about using the tool. BEAUTY BENEFITS In ancient Chinese practices, gua sha involved vigorous scraping of the skin until red, in pursuit of better energy flow and blood circulation. The gua sha we know and love today is a little gentler. Usually made out of crystal, the modern gua sha is thought to improve skin elasticity, lymphatic drainage and blood circulation, while also lessening muscle…

Blunt by name, blunt by nature. British actress Emily Blunt, 41, is talented, charming, and one of the most in-demand actresses right now. She’s also incredibly honest, and gives credit where credit is due.

You choose your projects carefully. What appealed to you about The Fall Guy?

“My wonderful, funny, kind and brilliant husband” British health advocate Michael Mosley, best known globally for popularising the intermittent fasting 5:2 Diet, was one day into his week-long holiday with friends on the Greek island of Symi when he seemingly vanished.

You know you’re a bona fide movie star when, at the Cannes Film Festival, you receive a nine-minute standing ovation. That’s everyday life for actress Zoë Saldaña, who stars in the new Spanish-speaking, musical crime comedy Emilia Pérez, opposite Karla Sofía Gascón, Selena Gomez, Adriana Paz and Édgar Ramírez. In it, she plays Rita, an overqualified and undervalued lawyer at a large firm that focuses more on getting criminals off the hook than bringing them to justice. She teams up with the bad guys, and helps a cartel leader become the woman he always wanted to be. The film earned rave reviews from critics ahead of its release, 15 years after Saldaña was catapulted to superstardom, and crowned one of the highest-grossing actresses of all time thanks to her leading…

Fans of K-pop are well-known for taking action. Mobilising quickly online in the name of their idols, various groups have raised millions of dollars for charity, made activism hashtags go viral and even caused chaos for people trying to get tickets to Donald Trump’s rallies. But sometimes fan adoration, wherever it’s directed, can be severely misplaced. Two reporters discovered this first hand when they found themselves at the forefront of an investigation exposing heinous sex crimes committed by three of K-pop’s biggest stars, aBBC documentary reveals. On a Friday night in September 2016, Park Hyo-sil received aphone call from her editor with a tip-off from a trusted police source. “He told me there was a big case being investigated which involved secretly recorded sex footage and a big-name celebrity: Jung…

Whether you were told never to ask someone how much they earn or grew up avoiding money discussions at dinner, our finances are something many of us keep tight-lipped about. But there’s a trend that’s bucking how we talk about money: loud budgeting. The concept is simple – being up-front about your money goals with those closest to you is a sound financial strategy. Whether you’re saving for a holiday or trying to pay back debt, vocalising why you aren’t splashing cash around can help you stick to a budget without feeling like you’re missing out.

THE LIPS For the finishing touch to this eye-focused look, opt for a nude lip to balance out the smoky feel. Choose a lip colour with a neutral brown tone or a subtle pink shade to complement the overall grunge aesthetic.

Set makeup in place by spritzing a setting spray over your full face for a sleek, shiny finish. THE CHEEKS Switch out cream blushes for powdered formulas for your cheeks. Neutral and terracotta shades work really well, so sweep a light touch across your cheekbones and the tip of your nose to enhance your features and achieve a healthy glow.
