There can’t be an Aussie who doesn’t recall little Bindi Irwin standing in front of a packed Australia Zoo stadium and speaking to more than 300 million viewers around the world at her dad’s memorial service. “My Daddy was my hero. I had the best Daddy in the whole world and I will miss him every day,’’ she said with incredible confidence. I was around the same age when I lost my dad. Similarly, he died suddenly while overseas, and I can remember feeling Bindi’s shock and sadness at the time of Steve’s death, and wondering where she was getting all that strength. Fast forward to now, and Bindi is yet again capturing the hearts of millions as she tops the leaderboard on the US version of Dancing with the…

She remained coy about his identity for some time but since confirming in July, that she’s in a relationship with university student Chandler, Bindi has revealed he’s one of her biggest supports. And he’s very much a part of the family, joining Terri and Bob in the audience to cheer on Bindi during her live DWTS performances. Last month, Bindi told Sunday Style magazine she feels “very lucky to have him in my life”. Aww, young love.…

Staying trim is important to Robby, who decided to really focus on her health and fitness three years ago. The secret to her success has been to ease into a regime that’s sustainable. Her program features four sessions at the gym per week, where she works out with a personal trainer, takes a Zumba class, or lifts weights. She also does interval training on the step and rowing machines. “This keeps my heart thumping for the entire workout,” she says. “And it gives me the long metabolic burn of the weight training.” Food is also a big focus for Robby. She eats “fresh, living and organic” food wherever possible, along with lean protein. She also tries to avoid processed foods and carbohydrates, although she does enjoy organic pasta and rice.…

Paul Hogan has raced to the US to be closer to his troubled 16-year-old son Chance, after photos emerged of the teen drinking, and smoking what appeared to be marijuana, with his friends in Santa Monica. Th e Crocodile Dundee star, who turns 75 next week and has recently been in Australia recording skits for Foxtel’s Open Slather comedy series, is said to be devastated by the turn of events. He wasted no time rushing back to the US to be closer to Chance, who has been living with his mother, Paul’s former wife Linda Kozlowski, 57. The actor, who married Linda in 1990 and moved to the US, has spoken in the past of the fact he blames himself for his son’s problems. “I’ve moved the poor kid about…

Despite reports they had broken up, Miranda Kerr and her billionaire boyfriend Evan Spiegel stepped out together for the first time in over a month, hours after the news broke that Orlando was dating Kendall. Friends say it was no coincidence that she posed for photographs with the 25-year-old Snapchat founder, despite rumours that he might have cheated on her. “Miranda forgave Evan in her time of need,” an insider says. “She knows how to push Orlando’s buttons, and that’s why Evan is back on the scene. But make no mistake – Orlando has hurt her by hooking up with Kendall.” All that cash, but only one T-shirt? He’s loaded, but Evan seems to be cutting costs when it comes to his wardrobe. Judging by these pictures he’s hard pressed…

Despite her fiance’s battle with mental illness, a reported spell in rehab, and rumours he slept with a teammate’s girlfriend, Jesinta Campbell insists her wedding to Buddy Franklin is going ahead. “He’s my everything,” Jesinta says of the AFL star. “We’re really excited to get married. I can’t wait for him to be my husband!” Sources say preparations at the wedding venue are in full swing, with landscapers busily attending to the grounds ahead of the event, which is scheduled in the next few weeks. And Jesinta has also been working overtime to ensure she looks her best for the big day. “I’ve been putting more focus on exercising lately,” she tells Woman’s Day. “But I try not to put too much pressure on myself.” Speaking at The Women of…

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s divorce just got more complicated, with rumours she’s pregnant with baby number four! After 10 years of marriage, the couple announced their split in June amid claims Ben, 43, had an affair with their nanny. But in recent months, the pair seem to have grown close again, seen out together at dinner, with the kids, going to counselling and, intriguingly, visiting a doctor. “Jen was shocked when she found out about the pregnancy [but] she was still committed to going through with the divorce,” a source close to the pair tells In Touch. However, the separation has made Ben realise how much he relied on Jen, 43, previously saying in an interview: “My wife’s very patient.” It seems the father of three may be hoping…

Victoria Beckham had an embarrassing end to her evening when she left the first anniversary party for her London clothing store with a wet patch on her pants. The fashion designer looked a little unsteady on her feet as she left the celebrations, leaning on David, 40, to steady herself in towering heels. Earlier in the night, Posh, 41, posted a pic of herself on Instagram enjoying her namesake cocktail, The Victoria, made of fresh lemon, sherry, red currant syrup and Haig Club whisky. After fans questioned the damp patch online, a spokesperson for the Beckhams denied Victoria had wet herself. “It was the most unfortunate positioning of a spilt drink whilst Victoria was sitting down,” the Beckham rep said. “Thankfully it was not a ‘dampener’ on what was a…

AMANDA SAYS: “As soon as I start to speak to Justine, Heston is so full-on with his energy. Justine laughs and tells me this is exactly how he always is. Another dog living with Justine asks if I can please help fix Heston’s energy as it annoys her and she’s had enough. She tells me her name is Delta Dawn and she’s a quieter dog of about 10 years old. “Heston tells me that he’s been with Justine and her family since he was a puppy, and from day one Justine has had a lot of anxiety.

She’s always said being a mother is the greatest blessing of all – and now it seems Princess Mary could be welcoming another little prince or princess to the family. The Tassie-born royal looked happy and healthier than ever, wearing uncharacteristically loose clothes while shopping with a friend last week.

The 23-year-old daughter of the Hole singer and late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain is said to have kept the nuptials a secret, even from her mother.

Courtney married Kurt in a similarly low-key ceremony in 1992 in front of just eight friends. According to an insider, Frances told Courtney the news over the phone. The mum-of-one is said to be “sad” she missed the nuptials, but happy for her daughter.…

Courteney Cox, is that you? The star stepped out recently looking dramatically altered, fuelling rumours that she’s had a significant amount of cosmetic work done. The 51-year-old bore little resemblance to the fresh-faced natural-looking brunette who played Monica Geller in Friends from 1994 to 2004. Despite having visibly smaller eyes, puffier cheeks and swollen huge lips that made her almost unrecognisable, Courteney has always denied ever having had any plastic surgery. And she’s sticking with that story, even with her upcoming wedding to Snow Patrol rocker Johnny McDaid, 39, which is thought to be taking place in a matter of months. “It’s no secret I’ve had some Botox in the past, but I won’t go under the knife” Courteney told Closer magazine earlier this year. “Johnny isn’t into that whole…

Amanda Robertson crouched behind a desk in her classroom at Delta State University in Mississippi, US, terrified to make a sound. Huddled among her peers, Amanda knew the slightest movement or noise could be the difference between alerting the gunman on campus to her presence and making it out alive. “We all just kept quiet and I was freaking out at that point, thinking this is happening, this really is real ” says the 22-year-old student from Brisbane, who had been attending Delta State on a full tennis scholarship since 2012. “I thought I was going to lose everything in that moment.” Amanda was among the 250 students held captive at Delta State on September 14 this year, when the campus was placed in lockdown as officers searched for “armed…
