We’ve had plenty of baby news to celebrate in the Woman’s Day office of late, and now it seems our favourite celebrities are getting in on the lockdown baby trend! As we eagerly await an exciting birth announcement from some big Hollywood names – including Alec and Hilaria Baldwin, who treated their four kids to a beach trip this week (p24) before baby number five arrives – our very own Bindi Irwin has announced she and husband Chandler are expecting their own little wildlife warrior. It’s hard to know who’s more excited, the happy couple or Uncle Robert! And they’re not the only ones with big news (p26). Congrats to all!…

Even before the rest of the world knew that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were making a break from the royal family, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, was watching her husband Prince Charles despair over his youngest son and new daughter-in-law. For hours into the night, Charles, 71, would bemoan to Camilla that less than two years after he threw them the wedding of the century, he would be forced to put out fires involving moody Prince Harry and his demanding wife Meghan, as their staffers quit in droves. And then, when the young couple announced they would be leaving Britain – in an adolescent-like huff, palace aides add – Camilla, 73, was there as he came to terms with the fact that their 15-month-old grandson Master Archie would be…

They say you might’ve already met your Mr Right – but he wasn’t right at the time. And sources say that’s exactly what’s happening between Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Garner, 19 years after they first were rumoured to have had a fling in 2001 on the set of their hit TV show, Alias. The pair were seen looking extremely close during an intimate beach day near his Malibu home recently. They were joined by the actor’s three-year-old daughter Lea De Seine. “It was crowded but Bradley and Jen only had eyes for each other,” an onlooker tells Woman’s Day. “If I didn’t know any better, I’d say they were a couple.” ‘Bradley’s the first guy Jen’s really opened up to’ WRONG TIME It’s not the first time Jen and Bradley’s…

Angry fans have taken to social media to vent their disbelief that veteran weatherman Tim Bailey was axed during Ten’s brutal budget cuts last week. “That is so un-Australian to fire Tim. Channel 10 have gone too far,” one viewer wrote on Twitter. “Channel 10 have shot themselves in the foot with that decision,” another declared. The 57-year-old has worked with Ten for 30 years and is considered to be “Australia’s most trusted weatherman”.…

As the final week draws closer, the promise of everlasting love (and hectares of farmland) has never felt more real for the ladies of Farmer Wants A Wife. Yet while some have fallen madly in love with the farmers – Sam, Neil, Alex, Nick and Harry – a few of the women still have no clue who they are! An on-set spy tells Woman’s Day some potential wives who make it to the end struggled to form any romantic connections, due to there being no time for one-on-one dates, particularly after the flirty farmers refused to send women home. “The farmers were so spoilt for choice and I think they just wanted to be surrounded by women,” says the source. “They couldn’t make up their minds, and in turn there…

When US superstar Lindsay Lohan was forced to step down from her judging role after coronavirus restrictions kept her from flying into Australia, every entertainer in the country was gunning for her chair. But one comedian who just didn’t cut the mustard was Ed Kavalee! After throwing his hat into the ring, the 41-year-old Have You Been Paying Attention? funnyman was quickly – and brutally – rejected by none other than his co-worker and friend Dave Hughes! “He did want the job, but I quickly swatted it down,” Dave, 49, revealed on his radio show, which he co-hosts with Ed. “You’ve got enough screen time, mate. Just back off.”…

When times have gotten dire, Katie Holmes has not been above teaming up with a commercial brand to keep the finances coming in. And it seems she’s looking to make a quick buck after allowing herself to be snapped in a pharmacy checking out skincare products. The actress has also been known to pose with a US brand of mayonnaise, as well as the usual celeb-approved contracts with Olay, H. Stern jewellery and Neutrogena. “Look, there aren’t a lot of productions going ahead right now and everyone’s got to pay the bills,” says a source close to Katie. “She has an expensive home and a daughter to take care of. Good on her for finding a way to keep on top of her bank balance.”…

She once boasted a property portfolio across California and Nevada worth tens of millions, but over the years, former Aussie soap star Susan Hannaford lost almost all of it. What remains is her favourite slice of Los Angeles real estate paradise – a spectacular mansion that sits pretty within the affluent Beverly Crest area. But now even her towering, white Palazzo Beverly Hills pad will be forever tarnished after a large party got out of control, with a woman shot dead and two other revellers wounded after a gunfight, with emergency services called to the mansion. Susan – who lives there with her two grandchildren full-time – was not at the $9 million, 14-bedroom home during the deadly incident. She is believed to have rented out the estate to a…

Jaws dropped when model and Melbourne socialite Jane, 36, was gifted a Range Rover as a push present from hubby and hairdresser-to-the-stars Joey Scandizzo. Taking inspiration from another famous TV family – the Kardashians – each of her children has a name starting with “J”, just like mum and dad – Jagger, five, Juke, three, and 18-month-old Jensen. Perhaps the most down-to-earth of the mummies, Rachel, 37, welcomed baby boy Harvey during season one, and is married to Jayson Watts, a partner of a successful Melbourne real estate agency. She gave birth to Harry in October 2018. Known for her fear of breastfeeding and zany one-liners, this 34-year-old mummy had no filter! Married to AFL player Andrew Merrington, the pair have two children, Lady Penelope, four, and Florence Jane, two.…

With things the way they are right now, each New Moon shines out like a beacon to us all as the great new hope for the chance to start over. This week brings a New Moon, so make your wishes. But can it save us from the dramas of 2020? The fact is that even with the best will in the world, when you look at the astrology, it seems we’ll be experiencing uncertain times until the end of the year. Why? Astrologically, this pandemic seems very tied into the rare 2020 series of Jupiter/Pluto alignments. There was one in April, when it all kicked off around the world, another in June when we were given a brief lockdown respite and the final one comes in November. Jupiter/Pluto speaks of…

Celebrities: they’re just like us, right? They eat, they drink, they sleep – and they love affordable beauty products. Yep, that last statement is totally true! Alongside many prestige products, these are some of the best beauty bargains you’ll find in your favourite stars’ kits. Victoria Beckham Posh may have luxe taste in some areas, but when it comes to her moisturiser of choice, its a bargain buy all the way – she slathers Weleda Skin Food $14.95 all over her body. “It keeps your skin so hydrated and moisturised,” she says. “It’s really, really thick and I love how it feels all over the body.” You wouldn’t know the price was low by the feel of the formula, either – it’s velvety soft (and that’s also how it leaves…

Despite publicly flaunting his new relationship with Ana de Armas, sources say Ben, 48, has had his nose put out of joint by Jen’s fling with Bradley. “He always thought Jen would be there for him to fall back on, and wasn’t too worried about John Miller as he could tell it wasn’t forever,” says an insider. “But Bradley is a whole different ball game. They’ve known each other for years, and Ben knows he has what it takes to win Jen’s heart. “Even more infuriating to him is that Bradley has been something of a support to himself as he tries to stay sober.”…

She’s been the self-confessed “panellist wrangler” on Studio 10’s famed couch for nearly a decade. But it seems even Sarah Harris, 39, might not survive Ten’s swinging axe with a source telling Woman’s Day that her contract is up in November and she’s understandably concerned about her future. “Sarah’s one of the most popular stars on the show, but even she’s not immune to the pressures the pandemic has added to the TV industry,” says the insider. “Channel 10 execs are looking at who is on the biggest salaries and whether they can justify keeping them.” The source says Sarah will face the same negotiations that panellist Joe Hildebrand, 44, underwent, which could see her role changing in the future.…

It’s official – there’s a baby boom and the Irwin-Powell family are expecting not one, but two new additions to the family! Almost five months after wildlife warriors Bindi Irwin and Chandler Powell tied the knot at an intimate wedding ceremony at Australia Zoo, the couple have announced they’re expecting their first child together.

While rumours that Hollywood heartthrob Zac Efron is one of the big names on the show this year have been swirling, one judge who can’t seem to let it go is Jackie O! The radio presenter’s constant hints that the High School Musical actor, 32, is behind one of the masks is leading fans to believe the single star has a secret crush on him! “Jackie O clearly has a bit of a thing for Zac,” one user on Twitter wrote. “We get it Jackie, you want Zac to be on the show,” another declared. Jackie, 45, hasn’t stopped talking about the hunky movie star since Zac was spotted living in Byron Bay in June. “All I know is that, because of the pandemic, we won’t have any international stars…

Danielle Magness-Wellmann’s addiction to royal fashion began in 2011 when Prince William announced his engagement to Kate Middleton. Danielle was instantly captivated by the fairytale romance. “I started paying attention to Kate Middleton’s clothing when they got engaged and fell in love with her style,” she tells Woman’s Day. “I think Kate serves as an incredible role model of both substance and style. When she wears something that is accessible to the public it is a chance to own a piece of sartorial history. ON THE LOOKOUT “There’s no way I can wear a Givenchy ball gown but some of her clothes are from Reiss, Hobbs and even Zara. “I keep on top of her wardrobe by looking at the royal calendar and Twitter – within minutes, someone online is…

When the lovestruck hopefuls packed their bags and left the Bachelor Mansion due to the coronavirus lockdown earlier this year, they held onto every hope they’d return to fight for Locky Gilbert’s love. But speaking to Woman’s Day, a close source reveals the handsome Survivor star, 30, almost threw away the entire show after a boozy night in his hometown of Perth left the girls reeling!

At 58, you’d think Tom Cruise would be looking to cut back on the death-defying stunts that made him a bona fide action hero. But despite film studios willing to provide the A-lister with the best stunt doubles money can buy, he still insists on hanging out of choppers, leaping over buildings and flying his own planes. “With technological advances in filmmaking, the studios are under more pressure to make action sequences crazier than ever,” says an insider. “Especially on something like the new Mission: Impossible film, which Tom is working on right now. Because he’s worth so much, the insurance for this dude is sky-high and the joke among the props department is that no one wants to be in charge of Tom’s parachute!” WHERE THERE’S A WILL... Sources…

THERE’S NO RIGHT WAY “One of the most common fears for people talking to friends and loved ones that they’re worried about is saying the wrong thing or being unhelpful,” says Dr Blashki. “Just be genuine, honest, explain why you’re concerned, and the change in them you’ve noticed.” AVOID PASSING JUDGEMENT “Be non-judgemental and understand everyone’s experience is unique,” he says. “If they share things that are hard to hear or you don’t understand, resist the temptation to offer solutions or make your own diagnosis. The most helpful thing you can do is listen.” Dr Blashki adds that they may not be ready or willing to talk or listen to you – and that’s OK, too. “Ensure that the person knows they can talk to you if they ever need…

Having delivered a moving performance as Ryder’s long-lost dying father Evan Slater in Home And Away, Logie winner Cameron Daddo, 55, is set to make a return to the hit show in a completely different role! It’s not often actors get to play two different parts on the same show. Was it hard to switch from Evan to Owen? Fortunately, I had some time between playing the two characters. I was able to put Evan “to bed” and then create the backstory of Owen. Thankfully, I never played the two at the same time... now that would have been fun!
