When I asked some of my mummy friends their plans for Mother’s Day, one joked she’ll be “lucky to get a cup of tea” out of her kids (although I know she will), and another had already put her breakfast order in! Whether you’re celebrated with a pair of slippers or a poached egg in bed (that’s a hint right there, husband!), I bet if we did a national poll only one thing would really matter to mums around Australia – that they spend some precious time with their kids. Seeing my beautiful mum and having some much needed snuggle time with my two little munchkins is certainly all that matters to me. If you’re a mum, I hope you get your well-earned cuddle for your long service. After all,…

This is the arrival that will change everything for William and Kate. At the time Woman’s Day went to print, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were still awaiting the arrival of their second child. But amid this uncertainty, one thing was for sure: this little family is about to enter an exciting phase. While the arrival of George in July 2013 brought the couple closer together, their new baby will really cement their connection as a family. Having a second child marks the final step in their transition from loved-up university classmates to a loving family unit – something the couple have dreamed about for so long. “This is what William and Kate have wanted since they got married – lots of kids running around and a loud and…
While the world waited with bated breath for any signs of a royal arrival last week, Kate showed no signs of impatience, carrying on as normal with characteristic grace and ease. Proving she’s a natural at motherhood, Kate was seen driving herself and George out of Buckingham Palace after swimming lessons. She was also spotted shopping at Zara Home, where she picked up a set of padded blue-and-white gingham hangers and picnic cutlery from the children’s department. “She looked so calm,” a shop assistant says. “You couldn’t really tell she was pregnant because she looked so great. I mean, she was wearing heels! She was so nice and polite.”…

Kate wants to make sure the easygoing bond between the two princes will be replicated with George and his new sibling. “Harry was as much a support to William as the other way round,” says author Penny Junor in her book Prince William: Born To Be King.…

Then came the cruellest of all TV trick.The My Kitchen Rules producers stopped the celebration and prepared to film fellow competitors Steve and Will also winning the $250,000 prize money that the girls thought they had in the bag. As Woman’s Day went to print, the real winners were yet to be revealed to the world. “Everyone else on set, including Will and Steve, were fully aware that two endings were being filmed,” explains a source on the set. “It was like common knowledge. But Jac and Shaz were clueless and furious they’d been kept in the dark.” The confetti was swept…
