Innholdsfortegnelse for 1842 i Woman's Day

It is an accepted reality for my team to be bored for the first 10 minutes of each Monday morning as I explain the ins and outs of whatever diet I’m starting. It’s also an absolute given that by Thursday, when we sit down to put the week’s cover together, the Cheezels are out and all bets are off. Not even my recent purchase of the world’s most expensive appetite-suppressing lollipops was successful in keeping me from the bag of Cheezels. So I’m in awe of our inspiring Aussie weight-loss heroes (p36) who collectively lost an amazing 359kg. Through diet and exercise, bride-to-be Melissa lost 65kg, Perth mum Belinda lost 56kg, Erin from Victoria lost 81kg, Sydney woman Lorah lost 55kg and Adelaide mum Hollie dropped a whopping 102kg. Ladies,…

Singer Enrique Iglesias is in hot water with his girlfriend Anna Kournikova after passionately smooching a fan at a recent concert. The Spanish heartthrob, 43, was performing to a sellout crowd in the Ukraine when he invited an enthusiastic admirer onto the stage. After the pretty brunette presented him with a framed photo and posed for selfies with him, they engaged in a hot and long-lasting smooch. It’s gone down like a lump of lead with former tennis star Anna, 37 – who has been dating Enrique since 2001 and is mother to his nine-month-old twins Nicholas and Lucy. “She’s used to him being friendly with his female fans and normally she has no issues with that,” says a Woman’s Day source. “But the fact he let the kiss linger…

Cher is living a nightmare after her majestic Malibu mansion turned into a scene of chaos while she was touring Australia. Police, paramedics and firefighters dramatically raided the songstress’ home on September 27. It was confirmed that Cher, 72, was not connected to the case in any way. California police arrested Donovan Ruiz, who had been living at the mansion and is reportedly the son of Cher’s assistant. The 23-year-old, who was allegedly on his way to Australia to join Cher’s tour, now faces a litany of charges including arranging a narcotics deal that led to a fatal overdose in mid-September. Paramedics were on hand at the house, which the singer previously put on the market for $57 million, in the event the arrest turned violent, but Ruiz was taken…

1 CASS’ HOT HOOK-UP WITH SAM IN BALI After she was dumped by Nick, Cass found solace in the arms of Bachelor In Paradise star Sam Cochrane – in Bali. The pair hit it off right away in the tropical surrounds and Sam’s quirky humour put a smile on Cass’ face after her public heartbreak. An onlooker, who was holidaying at the same resort, tells us the sparks were “out of control”. “Cass and Sam were very tactile with each other and it was clear that they were ‘on’,” says our source. “They really looked like they were having the time of their lives.” Sadly, after their whirlwind getaway, Cass and Sam decided to be mates as neither of them felt ready to commit to a long-distance relationship. 2 NICK…

When it comes to her wedding, Princess Eugenie has spared no expense. And the same goes for her and Jack’s honeymoon! “Eugenie and Jack are jetting to Madagascar by private plane, which in itself is costing more than $250,000 for the round trip,” one palace insider reveals. “They’re staying at the exclusive 14-villa safari lodge called Miavana, where they have their own 464 square-metre villa with private plunge pool, 24-hour butler, private chef and two private tour guides and a driver to take them around. “After 10 days in Madagascar, they’ll take another private jet to the island of Mauritius, where they’ll reside at the luxurious One&Only resort in Le Saint Geran at their most exclusive villa, named Villa One.”…

Jason’s not the only former Neighbours star whose attempt at comedy has backfired. In 2005, Craig McLachlan – who played Henry Ramsay on the soap for two years in the ’80s – performed a three-minute stand-up routine on TV’s The Footy Show. He was so woeful the audience chanted “Get him off!” before he’d even finished. Low points included a lewd “gag” about Harold Bishop having sex with Bouncer the dog and a racially insensitive rendition of his hit song Mona. Earlier this year, the Dr Blake Mysteries star was accused of sexual misconduct, which he has denied, while performing in The Rocky Horror Show in 2014.…

When Ron Casey did one of his last-ever interviews, he told Woman’s Day he’d be nothing without his beautiful wife of 52 years by his side – and Renate remained his biggest fan until he died in hospital last week at age 89. “What most people don’t know is that Ron is the most caring man,” Renate said during the interview three years ago at their home on Sydney’s North Shore. “He’s so generous and so kind, and he never expects anything in return.” After gaining a huge following as a renowned sports reporter on Nine’s Wide World Of Sports with Frank Hyde, Ron became one the most famous talkback radio hosts in Australia in the 1980s and ’90s. And with his heated discussions on air, the feisty father-of-four became…

Sarah Jessica Parker isn’t too fazed about some upcoming criticism and will move forward fast. She is deep into her own business and projects and as I hear, “still learning every day”. She isn’t going to listen to reason from people who she doesn’t know or associate with, and will spread her love and energy on those who need her most. Her children are growing fast and she wants to be there for them. I hear she would have loved one more child but is happy in life anyway. I hear her voice as the narration of a show or movie – I’m seeing Carrie And Friends.…

Bumping along Carrie Bickmore is just weeks away from giving birth to her third child but it hasn’t stopped her from splashing around with her daughter Evie at the beach. Royal form Prince William kicked off his seven-day tour of Namibia, Tanzania and Kenya last week with a game of soccer. What a shot! Beach bombshell Baywatch babe Pamela Anderson kicked up her heels at the Chanel spring 2019 fashion show in Paris, where they built a beach as a runway! Backing a winner “Love watching the sly fox on Survivor! Shane [Gould] is my bet for the win,” Lisa Curry said alongside this pic with the champion swimmer.

Michael Hutchence’s daughter Tiger Lily has been secretly dating Australian rocker Nick Allbrook for a year. The Pond frontman, 30, shared an Instagram video of the 22-year-old dancing in August, writing, “A year since my favourite person came shnufflin into my life.” He also referred to her as his “dream gal”. The Perth native and former Tame Impala bassist left the band last year to “try and screw his head back on”. Tiger Lily is the only daughter of INXS rocker Michael, who died in 1997. “Tiger Lily has been through so much in her life already and everyone just wants to see her happy,” says an insider.…

Days after they were first snapped together in Byron Bay, estranged couple Madeleine West and Shannon Bennett have been spotted enjoying a passionate kiss – and set tongues wagging again over the status of their 13-year relationship. Woman’s Day can reveal that the celebrity chef, desperate for reconciliation, begged his free-spirited ex to bring their six children on a make-or-break school holiday trip to the resort town in northern NSW, where he has bought a new home. The reluctant Playing For Keeps star agreed only if she could bring her mother for support – and the MasterChef star gladly went along with the 38-year-old’s ultimatum. “Shannon is willing to do whatever it takes to woo her back,” says an insider. Since then, Shannon, 42, has had the names of his…

The nation has eagerly followed Nick “Honey Badger” Cummins on his journey to find lasting love, and finally Australia’s larrikin Bachelor has – with Brooke Blurton! In a shock ending that nobody saw coming, Sophie Tieman, 25, and Brittany Hockley, 31, were both dumped at the final rose ceremony in New Caledonia. “It wouldn’t be fair to enter into something that a few months down the track I’d be breaking her heart,” said Nick, 31, of his decision to choose neither girl. “I came here for a chance at love and now I’m going to have to start again. She’s out there!” Now, Woman’s Day can exclusively reveal that on his return from New Caledonia, Nick couldn’t stop thinking of fan-favourite Brooke after she dramatically walked away from their relationship,…

‘Harry was sneaking glances at her tummy’ It appears Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are heading to Australia with some extra precious baggage! The Duke and Duchess of Sussex – due on our shores next week for the Invictus Games – have all but confirmed they’re expecting a baby during a recent royal function in the UK. As they greeted youngsters across the English south coast, the starry-eyed newlyweds looked besotted with one another, and according to Woman’s Day sources, there was an obvious glow about 37-year-old Meghan. “She was so radiant and couldn’t stop gushing over the kids in an incredibly maternal manner,” reveals one onlooker. “Harry had his arm wrapped around her and he was constantly sneaking glances at her tummy. “Meghan was caressing her belly during intervals,…

He’s known for his good nature, but when it comes to love, country crooner Keith Urban is more than willing to put on his boxing gloves to protect his corner. The 50-year-old father-of-two is fuming over Russell Crowe’s “infatuation” with his wife Nicole Kidman. Last week Woman’s Day reported on the close bond Rusty, 54, and Nic formed while shooting their latest movie, Boy Erased, with the Gladiator great gushing about his love for Nic in press interviews. In one confession, the Kiwi-born Oscar winner even said he’d always fantasised about being married to Nicole, while praising her “compelling” personality and “seamless” acting. Now, it appears his confessions have stirred an angry reaction from Keith, who’s feeling uneasy about seeing another man drooling over his wife of 12 years. “Keith’s…

1 Hugh said “meeting my wife was the greatest thing” to come out of filming the TV show Correlli in 1995. 2 He doesn’t care about their 13-year age gap – it’s irrelevant. 3 He’s a calming influence. “We meditate together,” Deb reveals. 4 Hugh loves his wife’s sense of humour. “I’ve told his agent he’s not allowed to work with Angelina [Jolie],” Deb jokes. 5 He’s drop-dead gorgeous. “I like him all ways – chubby, muscly, skinny,” Deb swoons. 6 He refuses to spend more than two weeks away from Deb at a time. 7 Hugh was smitten from the start – he proposed after four months! 8 He’s incredibly romantic. When Hugh proposed, he set up a beautiful table in a botanical garden with croissants and flowers. 9…

‘I HAD TO WEAR MATERNITY CLOTHES’ Melissa Mouawad, 29, Sydney, NSW Wearing a huge maternity dress, Melissa Mouawad looked at her reflection in the changing room mirror and recoiled in disgust. At 18, she should have loved spending a day out clothes shopping but at 135kg, shame raged as she avoided the fashionable racks and was instead forced to buy clothing from the maternity section as they were the only things that fit. “The clothes were elasticated, and they were the only things I felt comfortable in,” says the 29-year-old. That moment, along with a routine visit to the doctors – where she was told she was pre-diabetic and could have a heart attack any day – finally gave the Sydneysider the reality check she needed to beat the bulge.…

• Always shake your product well before spritzing to make sure the • ingredients are well distributed. Less is more – the bonus of a pump spray over an aerosol is that there is no propellant, which means there’s more room for active product so you’ll find you won’t need to use as much. • Spritz from the bottom of your hair and work your way up. That way the ends, which tend to be more “needy”, will get the most coverage. • You’ll often find mechanical pumps such as these spray a heavier mist than an aerosol, so hold at a reasonable distance. • Depending on the nozzle, pumps often deliver a more irregular spray than aerosols, so where appropriate comb the product through with a wide-tooth comb. • Unlike aerosol sprays, which can be…

One in four people will experience anxiety at some stage in their life – that’s one in three women and one in five men. Whether you or someone you love deals with the disorder, there’s no doubt that despite its prevalence there’s still damaging stigmas attached. But author of Becoming Brave and anxiety sufferer herself, Katie Dean, wants us to stop being so darn harsh on ourselves and others when all there really needs to be is compassion and support. Here are her tips on understanding anxiety and ridding harmful stereotypes… How it feels Anxiety isn’t a “one size fits all” condition.

SIGNS YOU NEED ONE “You may be finding that you’re tired and it’s hard to concentrate, or that you’re unnecessarily irritated by your colleagues,” says clinical psychologist Dr Jodie Lowinger. There can also be feelings of, “[hopelessness], lethargy or ambivalence,” adds Craig Davis, certified teacher at Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute. WHY THEY’RE IMPORTANT “We generally have no issues taking time off to recover when we are physically unwell because we understand that the quality of our work is compromised, and that it will take longer to get well if we don’t rest and recover,” says Craig. “The same is true with our mental health. We need to learn how to look ourselves with good self-care.” HOW TO SPEND THE DAY It’s up to the individual, but Dr Lowinger advises…

1 Hire a car & explore Fiji I’d absolutely recommend hiring a car if you plan to visit Fiji. It is not at all difficult to drive on the roads (they drive on the same side of the road as Australia). Having the freedom of a car allows you to get out of the resort bubble, find some incredible experiences and discover the real Fiji. 2 Take a food safari While I was staying at Nanuku Auberge Resort, I experienced their Fijian Food Safari, which saw me explore local markets, search for mud crabs, catch freshwater prawns and make lolo (coconut milk). I also learned how to weave baskets for the traditional Fiji lovo, an in-ground oven. 3 Head to a beach club on its own island for the day…

He’s kept a low profile in recent weeks as he and his estranged wife Angelina Jolie battle it out in court over custody of their kids. But it looks like Brad Pitt has someone taking his mind off the whole ordeal. At a charity event to benefit music education recently, sparks were flying between the 54-year-old and healer to the stars Sat Hari. “They were having a great time together and it seemed like Brad didn’t want his time with her to end,” reveals an insider.

CASS: I CAN’T SWITCH OFF MY FEELINGS Just because The Bachelor has finished doesn’t mean Cass is over Nick as well. “I was in love. It’s taking time to heal,” admits the pretty Sydneysider. “I definitely had the strongest feelings because of what we’d been through in the past… I was very hurt when I left the show.” Despite the fact Cass says she accepted Nick’s explanation that he wasn’t feeling it, she can’t switch off her emotions. “My feelings are genuine,” she says.

ARIEL WINTER Ariel is well-known for her racy outfits, but behind-the-scenes the 20-year-old has faced intense family issues. Ariel’s sister Shanelle Workman filed to be her guardian in 2012, claiming their mum Chrisoula Workman had been “physically and emotionally abusive”.

TIPS FOR EFFECTIVE GRATITUDE JOURNALLING? Write down three things you’re grateful for each day or just choose one thing from the past 24 hours to write about in more detail.

The aim is to really focus on the positive aspects of your life and to take time out to acknowledge them, so you are moving from just putting words on paper to getting in touch with your innermost feelings. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS? Expressing gratitude increases oxytocins (the love molecule) and…
