As I sat at my desk eating Nutella straight from the jar in the early hours of January 2 (special thanks to my deputy editor Alix for the Chrissie present!), two things were clear. One: my new year’s resolutions were off to a shaky start. Two: I was in serious mourning of the holidays of Christmas past and already dreaming of my next vacay. Especially since this time of year we are flooded with sunny snaps of stars around the globe on their luxe getaways (p32). FYI, if you’re not in Aspen or Hawaii, you have missed the memo. Fortunately, there’s always retail therapy to get us through! And what better way to put a spring in your step as you head back to the 9 to 5 than our…

She split from hubby Jeffrey Soffer in June last year, and it appears Elle Macpherson has turned to ex Arpad Busson for comfort during the holiday season. The 53-year-old took to Instagram on December 26 to share a photo of the father of her two children wearing a Santa hat. ‘Thankyou for a magical Christmas,’ Elle captioned. ‘Love you’. The French businessman, 54 – who recently went through a nasty custody battle with his ex Uma Thurman – was then tagged in a second snap hours later, this time with sons Flynn, 19, and Aurelius, 14. ‘Christmas swim,’ Elle wrote, along with the tag ‘#family’. While Elle rarely comments on her relationship with ‘Arki’, the pair have remained amicable since their 2005 split. And judging by these snaps – the…

Kourtney Kardashian and beau Younes Bendjima have given the biggest hint yet that their relationship is more than just a fling, after the 24-year-old model was spotted with the reality star and her five-year-old daughter Penelope Disick. ‘It’s definitely serious,’ an insider shares of the pair, who were first introduced during a trip to Paris in October 2016. ‘No-one thought their relationship would last this long, but Kourtney is very happy.’ The 38-year-old was said to have an agreement with ex Scott Disick that they wouldn’t introduce their three children to any new partner unless they knew the relationship was ‘serious’, so it looks like Kourtney’s decided Younes is a keeper! ‘Younes has met her kids,’ the insider explains. ‘Kourtney’s family really likes him. He is the opposite of Scott.…

The not-so-private tête-à-tête happened on the real estate agent’s Instagram page, with Sasha, 32, liking and subsequently commenting on a series of Nikki’s posts. ‘You look amazing,’ he wrote on December 15.

While this will be Khloé’s first baby, Tristan is already a father – and his newborn child with his famous girlfriend won’t be that much younger than his first-born infant! The athlete welcomed a baby boy, Prince, with his ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig in December 2016. ‘He is [already] a father, and I know for a fact that he would be an impeccable father,’ Khloé shared in April last year. Tristan, like Khloé, is close to his family, but he isn’t so strong on maintaining long-term relationships – he reportedly dumped a pregnant Jordan just three months before she gave birth to Prince, and quickly hooked up with Khloé. So could history repeat?…

Scott Disick’s girlfriend Sofia Richie is channelling a brand-new look… one that reminds us of another raven-haired beauty Scott used to date. In fact, after showing off her new ’do on social media – swapping her bleached blonde locks for dark brown tresses – it’s hard to ignore the resemblance between Sofia and Scott’s baby mama Kourtney Kardashian. Sofia’s hair transformation seems to be just the beginning of her changing appearance.

Kyle Richards says her fans describe her as ‘the normal one’ among the ladies that star on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and we’d have to agree they’re right on the money. The brunette, who has been a cast member since RHOBH’s inception in 2010, cruises around in a Lamborghini, vacays on private jets, and has just moved into a $10.7 million mansion once owned by legendary singer Smokey Robinson. But when it comes down to it, the 48-year-old is about as down-to-earth as the often outrageous and outspoken cast come. ‘I’m a tough cookie sometimes, but I’m really emotional and really sensitive,’ admits the mum-of-four, who will celebrate her 22nd wedding anniversary with high-end real estate agent Mauricio Umansky at the end of January.

A lot of shit has gone down,’ shares The Real Housewives of Melbourne’s freshest face Venus Behbahani-Clark, describing the fiery reality show she signed on to star in this year.

His shopping partner was Amanda Anka, the wife of actor Jason Bateman – who was nowhere to be seen, either. ‘After so much time away from home,’ a friend tells OK!, ‘he went out for the day with Amanda – and left Jen on her own.’ Jennifer was hurt and jealous. ‘When she confronted him, Justin was flabbergasted. He told Jen they’d been out Christmas shopping for friends and family together – but his words didn’t placate her,’…
