As they undertake their first overseas tour with Archie in tow, it’s no surprise new parents Harry and Meghan might be a little anxious. But a palace insider says the duchess is so concerned that the Africa trip runs smoothly, she’s leaving nothing to chance. In fact, she’s hired a 20-strong entourage just for little Archie, including five nannies, a sleep expert to help with jet lag, a baby masseuse, a team of stylists to oversee his outfits for public outings and a personal photographer to document his first official tour. Several paediatricians will also travel with the family, as well as a specialist dietitian and nutritionist to oversee the six-month-old’s meals. “She has insisted on the extensive team so that every possible eventuality is covered. Harry has warned her…

They announced they were divorcing in 2015 and made it legal just last year, but now rumour has it Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are set to wed again. “Jen and Ben have fallen back in love,” a source close to the Hollywood A-listers tells Woman’s Day. “He proposed after a birthday party that Jen threw for him at her house last month. He got down on one knee after everyone had left – and she said yes!” It’s news few of the couple’s friends and family saw coming. The doting parents to Violet, 13, Seraphina, 10, and Samuel, seven, have remained firm friends since their 10-year marriage ended, but after years of dealing with Ben’s addiction issues it seemed there was no turning back for Peppermint actress Jen. Ben…

She’s got the stellar music career – now Rihanna is focusing on love! The Barbados-born beauty is set to splurge $80 million on a mansion in New York, and is quietly planning a wedding and babies with her billionaire boyfriend Hassan Jameel. “They’re crazy about each other and it’s all systems go for getting married,” a pal reveals. The “Diamonds” singer began dating Saudi Arabian businessman Hassan, 31, more than two years ago and, says our source, “at long last she’s found her Mr Right.” The insider adds that the super-private couple are planning to wed in secret later this year á la Beyoncé and Jay-Z . “Rihanna feels very comfortable with Hassan,” spills the insider. “One of the many things she loves about him is that he doesn’t mind…

CARPOOL CRUSH ZOOEY’S NEW LOVE Love is in the air for Zooey Deschanel! Recently separated from her second husband Jacob Pechenik, the New Girl actress is “really happy and in a good place” with Property Brothers star, Jonathan Scott. The loved-up duo met while shooting an episode of Apple TV’s Carpool Karaoke, which they filmed together with their siblings Emily Deschanel and Drew Scott, and bonded over their love of music. “There was an instant connection between the two,” a pal says of the pair, who were spotted holding hands while out on a date in LA last week. “Everyone got on like a house on fire. Jonathan and Zooey exchanged numbers after filming and haven’t looked back since.” While an insider reveals that Jonathan, 41, hasn’t yet met the…

Groom Jonathan Trenberth is proudly gay on Married at First Sight, but up until six years ago it was a secret he kept tightly to himself. “I used to have all these tools and techniques just to get through a day hiding my sexuality,” the 31-year-old recalls, but he admits that doing so sent him into a downward spiral. Auckland-based Jono explains that the self-deception came at a cost. “At some point it means your month has been really bad, and then your week has been really bad, and then your day and then every minute is really bad – and it messes you up.” Born in Tauranga and raised in Christchurch, Jono’s early years were happy, but when he reached intermediate school he began getting bullied, with things becoming…

What do you value most in life? Perhaps it’s your health, education, relationships, cleanliness – or all of the above! Now, what is it your kids, even your grandkids, value? They might’ve told you, but more often than not it’s just assumed we know. Human behaviour expert Dr John Demartini wants to put an end to those assumptions. He says knowing what your kids’ values are, respecting them and not pushing your own on to them is what will truly bond the relationship. You might not even realise you’re forcing your values on to them – whether you’re telling them to do better at school, begging them to help keep the house tidy... the list goes on. Although it’s fair to want those things for and from your child, it…

Q We have a great mum who coaches my daughter’s netball team. My daughter loves netball, but she isn’t sure if she wants to play next year. The coach is superb, but she never subs off her own daughter and now my girl feels disenchanted because she spends so much time on the sidelines. We really appreciate the coach’s hard work, but how can we tactfully ask her to make her subbing choices more even? • Team Talk, Porirua A Oh no, you can’t do that! What can you do? Well, your daughter can play out of her skin so she’s not overlooked or you could change teams. Parents telling coaches what to do is a surefire way to get the coach p***ed off and your daughter less game time!…

DORA AND THE LOST CITY OF GOLD IN CINEMAS THURSDAY Most people are familiar with kids’ cartoon character Dora the Explorer, with her purple backpack and monkey sidekick Boots. Well, get ready because she’s getting a live-action makeover and taking on her next big adventure: high school! Starring Instant Family’s Isabela Moner, the film sees Dora team up with friends old and new to rescue her parents, played by Eva Longoria and Michael Peña, all while trying to solve an ancient Incan mystery. Can you say “exciting”? GOOD BOYS IN CINEMAS THURSDAY They might not be old enough to see the movie they star in, but this young trio aren’t letting that get them down. Brady Noon, 13, Jacob Tremblay and Keith L. Williams, both 12, are the lead characters…

TEAM KATIKATI High-school sweethearts Julia Gerritsen and Daniel Hull, both 34, run Central Park Bar & Restaurant in the Bay of Plenty region. Julia tells, “We want to get people who would not usually stop in Katikati to experience our unique twist on Kiwi cuisine.” TEAM NELSON Loud, honest and passionate friends Raf Sirri, 47, and Susanna Aricò, 26, are bringing a taste of Italy to the competition. Raf says nothing beats their tagliatelle al ragu bolognese. He tells, “I grew up with this dish on the table five days a week and I make the sauce I learnt from my grandma.” TEAM LYTTELTON Tucked away in the port town of Lyttelton sits Fisherman’s Wharf, run by friends PJ Gemmell, 46, and Rob Dickey, 49. Chef PJ says her favourite…

Miley Cyrus and Kaitlynn Carter sure don’t do things by halves! The loved-up pair, who are back in Los Angeles after a PDA-filled trip to New York for Fashion Week, are moving their relationship forward at breakneck speed with plans to move in together – and start a family. It’s just a month since Miley, 26, split with hubby Liam Hemsworth, 29, but she’s already searching for a love nest to share with Kaitlynn, 31. The pair are looking to spend $13 million in Malibu or Hidden Hills. “They need a place where they can start fresh, with a lot of space for all of Miley’s animals,” tells an insider. The smitten pair also want to hear the pitter-patter of tiny feet. “Kaitlynn desperately wants to be a mum,” reveals…

One of the things I love about reality television is that eventually your true colours always shine through. The cameras don’t lie. And if you’re Shannon Ryan, that’s not such a bad thing. On Celebrity Treasure Island, my son Darcy and I have loved watching Shannon rise to the challenge of leadership with her inner strength, calm and considered approach – and her mental and physical ability. As Barbara Kendall said when she was defeated by her last week, Shannon’s an awesome role model for young girls – and for little boys too! Darcy is definitely Team Shannon, and was so impressed to see her knock out three heavyweights of the show – including two Olympic heroes – three nights in a row. She’s awesome! And I for one am…

In her new memoir Inside Out, Demi Moore drops bombshell after bombshell. From divorces, infidelity and substance abuse to the painful childhood trauma that preceded it all, the beautiful and talented but tortured mother-of-three, 56, confesses all about the drama that’s plagued her life. “There’s nothing I have to protect,” says Demi, though she also admits laying it all out there makes her feel “very vulnerable”. Indeed, the actress has never been this exposed. Her gut-wrenching tell-all – for which sources say she received $7.8 million to write – doesn’t sugar-coat anything. In the memoir, which goes on sale this week, Demi writes that her father Danny Guynes – who she learned at the age of 13 wasn’t even her biological dad – often asked her to help him prevent…

When it comes to sitcoms, nothing comes close to Friends. But as the world went mad this month celebrating the hit show’s 25th anniversary, the friendship of two of its closest stars was falling apart. Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox have been BFFs since the show exploded on to the small screen in 1994, and the tight-knit twosome have been there through every major milestone of each other’s lives, from romantic weddings to bitter break-ups and everything in between. But it seemed nothing could save their relationship recently when Jennifer discovered she had not been invited to Cougar Town star Courteney’s upcoming wedding to Snow Patrol guitarist Johnny McDaid. Courteney, 55, and Johnny, 43, called off their engagement in 2015 and spent six months apart before reuniting in 2016. Since…

Facing off against former Olympians is no easy task and Shannon Ryan reveals she never even expected to come so far on Celebrity Treasure Island. After a long and successful reign as team captain, viewers were wowed when the TV star, 31, shockingly took out three of the game’s biggest players in a row – Eric Murray, Moses Mackay and Barbara Kendall. “I felt a real sense of strength when I knocked them out in the elimination arena, but I also then had a massive target on my back!” she laughs. The cool, calm and collected star has won over fans of the TVNZ 2 show with her fair leadership of the fiery Kahu team, despite admitting she never had intentions of being captain. “It’s not in my nature to…

While she oozes confidence on screen, it hasn’t always been that way for singer-songwriter Anna Saxton. Once an intensely shy child, the MAFS bride would hide under the table if she was asked to share a tune. She also had a rough time in school where she “felt like an outsider” because of a learning disability. “I’m quite dyslexic, so I thought I was really stupid at school,” the 25-year-old reveals. But things changed when she started writing music. “I saw things differently to other people and that was cool in a creative kind of way. Once I discovered what I loved, I discovered who I was and that helped my confidence.” And she certainly rocked her confidence and singing skills when she sang her vows at her wedding to…

Many little girls grow up imagining what their wedding day will be like, and Erin Simpson has always pictured her special day as a simple, fun and stress-free party with friends and family. But instead, just a few weeks out from tying the knot with The Bachelor New Zealand star Zac Franich, Erin is juggling a guest list of 200 people while house hunting and filming a new TV show! ‘We’ve had a pretty amazing time together so far’ “One of the filming days for this new series was our wedding day!” laughs the bubbly 36-year-old. “I managed to get that day off, but we’re shooting right up until the night before the wedding. We film outside of Auckland, so my dad will be picking me up the night before…

Hemp seed oil While hemp seed oil is derived from the cannabis plant, don’t be put off – it won’t get you high! As well as soothing aches and pains, it’s a powerhouse ingredient in skincare, providing moisturising essential fatty acids and antioxidants. It’s also been found to repair conditions such as psoriasis, dermatitis and even acne.

Q Is it wrong to geotrack my boyfriend on WhatsApp? • A Bit Suss, Cambridge A Let’s start with yes. Don’t be that person and before anybody gets up in arms, my argument is geo-track others as you would like others to treat you. Whatever you may believe, real or imagined, stooping to digital tracking is a very bad sign for your relationship. I have friends who suffer “mutual” jealousy based on past incidents, so they are happy to Google map each other’s locations until eternity. But that’s a shared decision. ’Fess up what the suspicion is to your boyfriend or forever live in a cloak of fear and ultimately, it will become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Imagine the irony if it’s only you being dishonest? Q There’s a woman at…

Spring has sprung and about time too. I’m over wearing layers of woollens and hats and gloves. Plus my annual pair of tights has finally worn out. Don’t judge me – if you buy 10 pairs, you either lose nine of them or they eat each other in the washing machine. Having just the one pair means you keep track of them and give them special attention, so they achieve more – you know, like an only child. I’ve been buying the same long-lasting brand – Ambra, black, more denier than you can poke a stick at – for years. Although this time I made a mistake when plucking them off the department store shelf, which I didn’t notice until I put them on and they felt weird in the…

I’ve just been at my person’s house. “Person” is what I like to call him for now. It’s “person” because there is no term to describe someone you’re seeing where you’re both rather keen, but past experience is keeping you sensible for the time being. Now this is difficult for me as being sensible has never been a strong suit of mine. If all that was required to be an adult was being trusting, wide-eyed giddy and rushing wildly into life with unicorn pyjamas on and tripping into love, well, that would be incredible. I would definitely medal in the Olympics of adulting. I have some fabulous women in my life and some very special men too. The women are all kind and funny, and hug me and laugh at…

Turning any beloved book into a movie is a stressful task, let alone a novel that’s sold three million copies and won a Pulitzer Prize. The Goldfinch hits cinemas this week and is based on Donna Tartt’s original novel about a 13-year-old boy called Theo whose mother is killed in a bombing at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. Nicole Kidman, who plays Samantha Barbour – the woman whose family takes in Theo after the death of his mum – says having such a powerful novel behind the movie has only made it stronger. The 52-year-old Aussie tells, “Being part of this story, it’s wonderful when you have a source material that’s so rich.” Ansel Elgort steps into the leading role of Theo and says while the film will differ…

What a guy I am one of Matty McLean’s biggest fans. He is such a caring and sensitive guy, and I’m pleased he has found his special someone in Ryan Teece (WD, Sep 9).They have moved quite fast in their relationship but look like a very suited couple. I was so upset when Matty lost his second challenge on Celebrity Treasure Island – I think he was right in saying he had no energy left after surviving nine days on just coconut and rice. Unfortunately though, Gary Freeman didn’t save him and he has now been eliminated. I am sending all my best thoughts to Matty, and congratulations on your efforts during the reality show. • Diana, Timaru Stay strong What a lovely little girl Maysha Vora is, shown with…

Libra SEP 24 - OCT 23 Someone’s actions may have struck a nerve, but that’s all about to change. As the sun glides into your sign, many Librans should feel a surge of energy and optimism.

As they touch down in South Africa for their first overseas tour as a family, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are preparing themselves for a full schedule of official events. With local charities to visit, celebrations to attend and dignitaries to meet, the royal couple are set to have little downtime during their action-packed 10-day trip. But behind the scenes, they’ve secretly put aside time for a private visit to a Cape Town orphanage, from where they’re desperately hoping to adopt a baby sibling for six-month-old Archie. Our source says the pair are determined to grow their family and love the idea of giving an orphaned child a loving home with them at Frogmore Cottage. “Archie might only be six months old, but Harry and Meghan can’t wait to…

When Princess Diana died in 1997, her “box of secrets”, containing 10 never-before-seen videotapes and audio cassettes she covertly recorded, disappeared from Kensington Palace – and have never been recovered. In Diana: Case Solved, authors Dylan Howard and former detective Colin McLaren claim Diana’s lost tapes contained a “record of her knowledge of scandals that could finish Britain’s monarchy” and “stashed them away in a box called the ‘Crown Jewels’”. They were kept under lock and key in her Kensington Palace apartment along with a signet ring belonging to her former lover James Hewitt and photographs that show her ex-husband Prince Charles romping naked with a male lover, their informants claim. Trusting butler “As far-fetched as it sounds, the claims were central to the 2008 inquest into her death when…

Hollywood sweetheart Jennifer Lawrence and her beau Cooke Maroney are now counting down the days to their romantic wedding – and Woman’s Day has learned that the bride has not one but two elegant Dior wedding gowns to say “I do” in! “Rumours have been swirling that they’ve already wed,” says a pal of the Silver Linings Playbook actress, “but they were actually just visiting the court house to get their marriage licence.” According to our source, the couple, who met through a mutual friend in June last year, are planning a “very simple and elegant” wedding in New York next month followed by another lavish celebration in Rome. The Italian capital is where Jennifer, 29, and New York art dealer Cooke, 34, first said “I love you”, and the…

There’s nothing like a nasty shock to gain a little perspective – and a horror plane ride has done just that for Jennifer. In February, the Friends alum boarded a plane to Mexico with six pals to celebrate her 50th birthday. But just moments after take-off, something went terribly wrong. “The plane lost a tyre, forcing them to make an emergency landing,” recounts an insider. The terrifying incident was a “wake-up call” for Jen, who took it as a sign that it’s time to let go of the past, let her guard down and live life to the fullest. Now she plans on doing just that by sitting down for a bombshell tell-all interview. “Jen is known for being tight-lipped about her life, but she’s told pals she’s gearing up…

This year’s ‘yin and yang’ MAFS couple Raymond Wedlake and Jonathan have the potential to turn instant sparks into a hot flame if they can juggle their differences! Life of the party Ray, 31, loves nothing more than putting on his designer dancing shoes for a night out, while Harry Potter enthusiast Jono is more likely to opt for a game of Quidditch or moonlight meditation. With the two already sleeping apart, Ray admits their differing views on settling down could be a deal-breaker. “To me, settling doesn’t mean not being able to go out drinking anymore and doing yoga instead,” the curtain installer declares. “I need a partner who is relaxed but also able to have a good time!”…

New Zealand’s youth suicide rate (age 25 and under) is the second worst in the developed world. The teen rate (ages 15-19) is the worst. Youth suicide cannot be considered as just a mental disorder. Studies in the US and elsewhere show that the likelihood of a suicide attempt is associated with a number of factors, including: • Socio-demographic factors and restricted educational achievement • Family discord and poor family relationships • The tendency to being impulsive • Anti-social behaviours and alcohol problems • Depression • Low self-esteem, hopelessness, loneliness • Drug and alcohol misuse • A history of suicidal behaviour among family and friends • Partner – or family – violence exposure in adolescence. (From Youth Suicide in NZ: A Discussion Paper 2017, by former PM’s Chief Science Advisor…

Working physical activity into your everyday routine is essential for good health. If you neglect exercise, it can have a huge impact on your mental and physical health, not to mention your productivity at work. If we change the lens through which we look at exercise, we can see it as an opportunity rather than an inconvenience. EVERY STEP COUNTS If you don’t need to be at your desk while taking a call, try a walking meeting. Not only will your back and surrounding muscles enjoy the break, but your brain will too. Remember, every step counts and they really do add up throughout the day. LEAVE YOUR DESK Instead of instant messaging or emailing a colleague, stand up from your desk and walk over to have that conversation instead.…

Idon’t know if your kids have ever been bullied, but if they have, you’ll know what a gruesome experience it is – not just for them, but for you as a parent. Every intuitive part of the protective Mama Bear in you wants to leap into action and ensure your child is safe. You want the bully held accountable and the school to acknowledge and fix the problem so other kids don’t suffer. You want peace restored. Most of all, you want your child comfortable enough to be able to return to school. So what happens when the school doesn’t believe you? Or won’t acknowledge it has a bullying problem? Or doesn’t want to act because it’s more interested in saving face? That was our experience 10 years ago and…

After premiering at the Venice Film Festival earlier this month, Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker got an eight-minute standing ovation and took home the Golden Lion – the festival’s top prize. So it’s no wonder the hype surrounding the film continues to grow! While there have been many movies featuring the infamous Batman villain, this is the first to delve into the character’s origin story and is not actually based on a comic book. Joaquin, 44, plays Arthur Fleck, a depressed aspiring comedian from Gotham City who turns to a life of crime after failing to find success. The actor says he was not influenced by previous renditions of Joker, such as Heath Ledger’s Oscar-winning role in The Dark Knight. “It just felt like something that was our creation in some ways,”…
