Innholdsfortegnelse for 16 May 2016 i Woman's Day

It’s not every day a member of the royal family drops their guard, so when Prince Harry opened up last week about his dream for one day starting a family, and the pain of losing his mother, you could almost hear hearts breaking across the Woman’s Day office. His incredibly candid interview had us all enthralled. He tragically admits he doesn’t have many memories of his mum, but there’s no doubt she would be bursting with pride to see the man he’s become. Of course, we loved getting a rare insight into the real Harry, but most of all his words are a poignant reminder to treasure the time we have with our loved ones, because even the most mundane moment could one day be a cherished memory. We’d love…

She once told Ellen DeGeneres she’d like as many as six kids, but it seems Kim Kardashian-West has had a change of heart. Kim and her husband Kanye West, 38, welcomed their second child, son Saint, in December. Now Kanye wants to try for another straight away – but she’s told him she’s done having kids. “Kanye has said it every single day,” Kim reveals. “But I don’t think I can carry another one.” Kim has already struggled through two difficult pregnancies, during which she was diagnosed with placenta accreta – a potentially life-threatening condition where the placenta becomes abnormally attached to the uterine wall. According to TMZ, doctors advised the couple – who are also parents to daughter North, two – against having another baby because it’s too risky.…

Former couple Jodi Gordon and Braith Anasta have put the heartache of their split behind them to focus on their daughter, working out a co-parenting deal to allow Jodi to join the cast of Neighbours in Melbourne. “From day one I’ve spoken to him about it, and he’s been very supportive,” Jodi says. “We’re still co-parenting, nothing has changed. We just swapped the days around and it works quite well. “The Neighbours team have been very understanding. They know I’m a mum and Aleeia is my priority.” Former Sydney Roosters captain Braith admits the couple’s split was tough, but says he is happy to do the childcare run for their two-year-old while Jodi films in Melbourne. When she’s back in Sydney, she’ll pick up mummy duties. “I think Jodi sacrificed…

Russell Crowe is rumoured to have fallen for NZ artist Gabrielle Pool, after they were reportedly spotted together before he jetted to the US for the release of his new film The Nice Guys. While his reps deny the pair are dating, the Daily Telegraph reports Russell is so enamoured with Gabrielle he’s “building her an artist’s studio at his Nana Glen retreat.” Gabrielle, who painted Lara Bingle for the 2013 Archibald Prize, certainly seems to be his type – blonde, creative and gorgeous. She’s being coy about the romance. “I’m in Coffs Harbour on a private residency. I do know some locals, among them good friend Chelsea Crowe, Russell’s niece.” Chelsea was bridesmaid at Russell’s wedding to Danielle Spencer in 2003. He and Danielle parted ways in 2012.…

1 CHOOSE A NEUTRAL LIP COLOUR “If you have excessively wrinkled lips, avoid bright or dark lipsticks that tend to bleed into wrinkles. Instead use a tinted lip balm or a softer, more natural lip shade. Minimise the use of thick gluey glosses – go for matte shades that grip so they’ll barely run.” TRY Rimmel The Only 1 Lipstick in Rosetto $15.95 2 DITCH FROSTY WHITE EYESHADOW “Frosty white eyeshadow is out – you have to let go of the ’80s! As well as looking dated, white eyeshadow is actually used in special effects makeup to make skin look more wrinkly, puffy and scaly. So just imagine what it will do to puffy, heavy eyelids!” Instead, go for a neutral shade such as taupe. TRY Bourjois Little Round Pot…

Time to plant your autumn VEGIE GARDEN Refresh your patch with a delicious new crop. Here are my top three choices to get in the ground right now… 1 ROOT VEGIES Carrot and beetroot love warm soil and cooler air. And while they do take a bit longer to establish – around 75 and 65 days respectively – they’ll grow well and have an intense flavour. Fertilise with potash to promote root growth over foliage growth. 2 LEAFY GREENS Rocket and spinach are so simple to grow over autumn and winter, and perfect for a slightly shadier position. Ditto on-trend superfood kale, which only takes 4-6 weeks before you can harvest it to toss in a salad. 3 GARLIC Delicious home-grown garlic is a plant-it-and-forget-it type of crop,…

Baker’s delight! Emma Thompson and her sister Sophie like to fight fire with… food. The pair teamed up for a Great British Bake Off parody for Greenpeace, to protest against fracking in Britain.

As mum and dad to two young children, Nancy and Daniel are used to being sleep-deprived, frazzled and having to deal with tantrums. But even parenting couldn’t prepare them for the pressure-cooker environment of House Rules. The plucky NSW couple – who stand out on the show for being power-tool novices – say being on the series is turning out to be the most stressful time of their lives. “We’re used to chaos – but with raising children ultimately you can have the last say,” says Nancy, mum to Jonathan, six, and Sophia, three. “We don’t necessarily get the last say on House Rules!” Inevitably many of the contestants clash during the show. But despite their lack of renovation experience Nancy and Daniel aren’t embroiled in any major flare-ups. “[The…

‘Bob is less than supportive, not least in light of his new alignment with Wildlife HQ’ Bindi hits out on social media Clearly upset by the arguing, Bindi uncharacteristically hit out at less-than-loyal family members on Instagram, days after the news of her uncle’s departure from Australia Zoo was revealed. Nothing is more important to Bindi Irwin than her “amazing little family” But the daughter of the late crocodile hunter Steve Irwin has been left reeling after a series of rifts have threatened to tear her world apart. When news broke last week that her uncle, Australia Zoo’s general manager Frank Muscillo, had thrown in the towel after 30 years of service, the teenager was shattered. Even worse, it appears a dispute with her mum Terri was behind his departure.…

Just a year after his stint in rehab, Mad Men’s Jon Hamm is back on the bottle. Atlanta bar patrons were shocked when a haggard Jon arrived with a young blonde. “They sat drinking multiple gin and tonics,” an eyewitness told Star. “Jon didn’t seem to care who saw. He wasn’t trying to hide whatsoever.” The patron added that Jon wasn’t physically at his best. “He looked like a completely different person. He’d lost a lot of weight and his skin was pale. He’d really let himself go.” Jon, 45, just shot four films back-to-back and is said to be struggling after breaking up with Jennifer Westfeldt, 46, last year. They’d been together 18 years.…

‘I had the US by the balls for 15 seconds – but I couldn’t read’ At the height of his career in the 1980s, Mark “Jacko” Jackson was driving down Hollywood’s Sunset Strip past billboards with his face on. Starring in NBC’s primetime show The Highwayman, which at the time rivalled The Bill Cosby Show in ratings, the Australian footballer-turned-actor had officially “made it” But, while he was cracking jokes on Th e Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and travelling the US to promote his hit Energizer battery commercial, he was harbouring a secret – he couldn’t read or write. “I had the US by the balls for 15 seconds, but I couldn’t read a script, a teleprompter or my contracts,” reveals the 56-year-old from his home on the Gold…

“Yes, you’ve got time! The Anti-Ager is only 15 minutes – that’s just 1 per cent of your day.” If the thought of puffing and panting puts you off exercise, one quick look at this 15-minute plan and you’ll see it’s the opposite of gruelling.

It’s been a time of “firsts” for The Real Housewives Of Melbourne star Gina Liano, who last week launched her fragrance Gina by Gina Liano. The glamorous reality TV star, who is renowned for her sequinned gowns and liberal application of hairspray, says she couldn’t be more excited to share her new fragrance with Australia – and with her fellow Housewives. “I gave them all a bottle and they absolutely loved it,” says the 48-year-old barrister, adding with a laugh, “Although it can be hard to know what they’re thinking, because what they say and what they think may not necessarily be the same thing!” The sassy celebrity, who’s a favourite with viewers thanks to her no-nonsense attitude, says she was “hands-on” during the perfume’s creative process – and we…

Q I am still grieving deeply for the loss of my brother in 2012. I am also married to a non-caring, verbally unkind, hopeless alcoholic. I am not coping with life very well at the moment. Can you give me any insight into my future? Wondering Your brother is a strong, determined soul. He is very protective of you. I can see him placing his hand reassuringly on your left shoulder and he is letting you know that he is watching over you from the spirit world. Unfortunately your husband’s attitude is unlikely to soften. Your brother tells me it’s time to make choices about your marriage with your own happiness and quality of life in mind. While I can’t tell you what to do, I know your brother…

‘I adore kids. I enjoy everything they bring to the party’ It’s rare that we get a deeply intimate and personal insight into the life of a royal. This is particularly true of Prince Harry, who often takes a back seat to his big brother Prince William and sister-in-law the Duchess of Cambridge. This, despite the fact he’s arguably the most intriguing and adored of all the Windsors. In his own words But so passionate is Harry about the Invictus Games – the international sporting event he created for wounded service members – that he broke tradition to sit down last week with People magazine in the US for one of the most raw and honest interviews that he’s ever given. What becomes evident in the wide-ranging discussion – in…

For the first time, details have emerged about how Tom Cruise was lured into the Church of Scientology’s inner sanctum by its controversial leader David Miscavige. In a memoir by David’s father Ron, titled Ruthless: Scientology, My Son David Miscavige, and Me, he reveals his son targeted Tom, now 53, when he realised the actor’s PR potential for the religion. He recalls how David arranged a welcome dinner for Tom in 1990, when he was doing courses at the Sea Org base with Nicole Kidman. The men “hit it off” straight away, Ron says. “They developed a sort of brotherly competitive spirit, each trying to outdo the other – one time they allegedly raced through LA trying to beat each other to their destination.”…

She declared it was “over” between her and her partner Tim on Seven Year Switch last week, but it seems that Jackie might be having second thoughts since filming ended. Working up a sweat at a fitness exhibition in Melbourne, the trainer couldn’t hide her blossoming baby bump – and participants were quick to take to social media to share the exciting news. “Just saw Tim and Jackie at Fitness expo and she is pregnant,” wrote Brent Albon on Facebook. The couple, who co-own Melbourne fitness business Division Ex, signed up for the Channel Seven reality show that sees four couples on the brink of separation swap spouses, in a last-ditch attempt to save their relationships. And despite signs to the contrary on the show, it seems the experiment may…

Jess Marais is possibly even happier than James Stewart himself that he’s dating someone else. “She feels relieved,” shares one close friend. “Jess knew the relationship was over a long time before she left, so there was never any chance she’d get back together with James. “But I think it took him a lot longer to realise it was over and he had to move on.” A year after his very public split from his 31-year-old fiancee, Home and Away star James has found love again – with another Jessica – this time a pretty blonde from Byron Bay called Jessica Nock. She has a degree in visual arts and owns a business called Crimson and Clover, making crocheted accessories and homewares by hand. James has even showed…

Fair skin “You can choose a shade from both ends of the spectrum, like soft baby pink or deep fuchsia.

They say love comes when you least expect it, and that was certainly the case for MasterChef contestant Trent Harvey. Eight years ago, single and with his heart set on travelling the world, he admits he didn’t think he was ready to settle down. But then he met Kristen and everything changed. “We met at a party and the rest is history,” says Trent, 29, who proposed last July. “I can’t wait to get married.” The wedding will be on his family’s orchard in Batlow, NSW, in December. “We’re going to have it there with a big dance floor, a food truck and a drinks van. It will be very casual, like a festival wedding. It’s going to be awesome!” But first things first for Trent, who is set on…

AMANDA SAYS Tip tells me he’s a seeing-eye dog not a guide dog, as there is a difference. He says he’s been with Josh and his wife for about two years, and before that was with another client for several years. After his first client he was retrained, then went to Josh. Tip tells me he’s now eight, and has three more years or so of work left in him. He says that when he retires and Josh gets a new working dog, he will train that dog, too. Tip works to high standards and even helps Josh cross the road. He recently safely manoeuvred Josh around some footpath works. Tip gets a bit of an itch at times but knows Josh is treating it. He also thanks Josh for…
