Innholdsfortegnelse for 1918 i Woman's Day

My kids think I’m highly irresponsible and they love nothing more than pulling me up about it. Among my worst is my forgetfulness (usually of key events in their lives), their strong belief that I walk around the house naked (not even underwear is acceptable) and my more recent habit of breaking the law (with only one demerit point left they have an argument there). Thanks to my two little law abiders, it’s become a habit to Google “Is it illegal to…” This week, my search included “Is it illegal to play two-up on Anzac Day?” and, in good news for the Woman’s Day team this April 25, the answer is no. From the origins and rules of two-up (p39) to your dawn service guide (p67) and the best ever…

Two-and-a-half years following their shock split, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are finally legally single. But although the actors have requested a bifurcated judgement – which will allow them to be considered divorced and single, while still negotiating their assets and custody of their six children – there’s talk Angelina is deliberately dragging out the proceedings because she isn’t ready to move on from her ex. “Ange has been calling the shots, but she’s now decided she doesn’t want to leave things on such bad terms with Brad,” an insider spills. “It’s as if she’s realised that the grass isn’t greener.” But whether the 55-year-old actor feels the same way is a different story. “Brad is willing to work on their relationship for the benefit of their kids,” adds our…

Scott Cam raised eyebrows when he was spotted downing a drink and enjoying a cigarette with a mystery woman at Gold Coast airport last week. The Block host arrived in style in a hired Rolls-Royce, and appeared very jovial with his blonde companion before his driver poured the rest of his beer onto the road as the pair headed for the terminal. It’s believed the 56-year-old renovation star had enjoyed a day out at the Gold Coast races before taking a flight home to Sydney. The father-of-three is filming the fifteenth season of The Block, which is set to air later this year.…

Over the past few years, the future has been looking a little brighter for Bert and Patti Newton’s troubled son Matthew. He’s rumoured to be married to Catherine Schneiderman – the daughter of a once high-flying politician in New York – and moved into her two-bedroom apartment on Manhattan’s trendy Upper West Side. They’re the proud parents of two cats, Tiny and Jean, with friends saying Catherine is keen to become a mother as soon as possible. However, 42-year-old Matt is essentially estranged from his own family in Melbourne’s Hawthorn, who would love to be involved if he was to give them a grandchild. But Woman’s Day sources reveal the chances of Matt returning to Australia are slim to none, with the actor determined to leave his past behind. “Because…

Stressed Stuart must wait another couple of weeks to learn what the consequences will be for allegedly driving while intoxicated, with his court case pushed back until May 7. It’s not the first time the former rugby player, who now works as a chef, has been involved in a drink driving scandal. In 2012, he was disqualified from driving for nine months after blowing an over-the-limit alcohol reading by police in southern Sydney.…

There was so much couple-swapping this season, it was near impossible to keep up, and last week was no different, even after the show finished. They turned to one another after their respective partners Dan and Jess cheated on them with each other, and spurned farmer Mick Gould and Tamara Joy have been growing closer and closer in recent weeks. If these pictures of them checking into a Melbourne hotel together are any indication, their relationship status is heating up! “Tamara and Mick were just friends at the start, helping each other through the cheating scandal,” says an insider. “But as the weeks have gone on, they've been spending more time together and the spark has blossomed.”…

With their celebrity status building and their TV prospects growing, it’s no surprise the star couple have gone for a celeb-style engagement party! Last Sunday, the lovebirds celebrated their post-show engagement, surrounded by their closest friends and family, but Woman’s Day understands the day was quite a production. “You’d think Kim and Kanye were getting married again!” says a source. “There was no indication of a venue, no formal invitation – we were told more information would follow,” the source adds. At the time of print, Woman’s Day understands guests were still in the dark about the location, with the source suggesting it may be Centennial Homestead in Sydney, where the duo held their reception on the show.…

IT SPARKS CREATIVITY You might associate boredom with not using your brain, but research shows daydreaming uses the mental processes that govern imagination and creativity. One study found that those who did a boring task – sorting beans by colour – later performed better on a creative, idea-generation task than those who first completed an interesting craft activity. IT GIVES YOU A BREAK Allowing yourself to daydream can act as a brief escape or respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It also encourages you to step away from your phone, work and other stressors, so you can rest and recharge your mind. You can even try some mindfulness practice! So don’t let yourself feel guilty for taking a bit of “me time” each day – it’s good…

Mila Kunis’ go-to wardrobe is jeans and a fitted T-shirt, so when she stepped out in a flowy dress last week, she had fans doing a double take. Stepping out in LA with her husband Ashton Kutcher, 41, and their two children, Wyatt, four, and Dimitri, two, the That ’70s Show star seemed to be hiding a bump, leading fans to predict she is expecting baby number three. Despite having their hands full already, the couple would happily welcome a third little Kutcher. “What motherhood shows you is how selfless you can get,” Mila, 35, has said. “I’m ragged tired. Who cares? My kids are healthy, I’m happy.” Adds Ashton, “You think you know how much you can love another person, and then you have a child and you realise…

He’s the people’s prince, and nearly 12 months after Oprah Winfrey attended his wedding, Prince Harry is living up to his title with an Instagram announcement he’s teamed up with the US TV queen for a documentary series about mental health. The Duke of Sussex has strongly supported the cause after opening up about his own struggles following the tragic death of his mother Princess Diana in 1997. The show, which has secretly been in the pipeline for months, is expected to debut on Apple next year. US BABY DREAMS However, behind Harry’s heartfelt Hollywood initiative there’s a hidden agenda, and it comes as no surprise it involves the 34-year-old’s wife Meghan. According to palace insiders, the former actress, 37, was encouraging Harry to take on the US project with…

He shared his heartache when his sister Connie was diagnosed with terminal cancer with Australia, putting his life on hold to cycle 15,995km across the country to raise millions for the cancer charity they set up together. And Samuel Johnson, who first found fame on The Secret Life Of Us, only agreed to go on Ten’s Dancing With The Stars to raise even more money for their charity, Love Your Sister. But last week he broke ranks to urge fans to boycott voting on the finale, claiming that none of the money raised through the SMS voting system goes to charity. Previously, when DWTS aired on Seven, a percentage of the phone votes went to the contestant’s chosen charity. DON’T WASTE YOUR VOTE “Being that SMS votes cost 55c and…

Zoe Ventoura is excited about her new career as a doctor in Summer Bay, but her latest job is expected to put even more pressure on her three-year marriage to Daniel MacPherson. The pair have been living in LA for the past six years, but now Zoe, 37, is based in Sydney to shoot the soap, it’ll mean racking up a lot of frequent flyer points to keep things with Dan on solid ground. The actor, who has kept busy in Tinseltown with his military show Strike Back, said recently they’ve had to constantly make their marriage a priority or “it doesn’t work”.…

It’s no easy feat playing a super villain on Australia’s most popular reality TV show, but only two weeks after MAFS ended, former bride Ines Basic, 28, is said to have become a recluse, and her closest friends and family fear for her wellbeing. “She has no job and is struggling to move on after the show. There aren’t too many options available to her,” says a friend close to the fiery brunette. “She sleeps a lot and rarely leaves the house, she’s just not herself – she’s lost her spark.” Earlier this year, Ines shocked fans when she stepped out looking scarily thin.…

Anzac Day – it’s more than a national holiday, it’s an Australian tradition. And following the dawn service, Aussies across the country will flock to their local RSL or pub to enjoy another Anzac Day staple: two-up. A fast-paced coin game, which is only legal on Anzac Day – except in Broken Hill, Kalgoorlie and certain casinos, where it’s permitted year-round – two-up is simple enough, but given it’s played only rarely, many people are unsure of the rules. So, here’s a crash course in the rules and the origins of this true-blue Aussie institution. THE HISTORY The origins of two-up are hazy, but it’s thought to have evolved from an English game called “pitch and toss” or “penny up”. Players would throw a coin – or coins – as…

LOVING YOUR BODY IS A MINDSET, NOT A GYM SET We read a lot of things on social media about how if you lose weight or get in shape to fit into size 10 jeans or a bikini, you will magically love your body. This has been proven over and over again to be one of the biggest lies of the century. Yes, having a healthy body is important but health is not a size – it’s a feeling. Exercise and eat right because it makes you feel alive, amazing, strong and capable, not to fit a certain dress size. CONNECT & RESPECT So many of us have disconnected with our bodies to focus on how it looks and not what it can do. Your body can do really incredible…

It should be an exciting time for Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake – the 38-year-old musician has wrapped up his year-long Man Of The Woods tour, which means he can finally devote all his time to his family. But as Woman’s Day’s new photos show, The Sinner star Jessica, 37, looked noticeably downcast as she stepped out with her mum Kimberly and four-year-old son Silas in New York City recently.

With a slimmed-down body and new hair extensions, Married At First Sight’s Jess Power seemed determined to show her ex Dan Webb what he was missing after he sensationally dumped her and revealed he regrets ever meeting her. But it wasn’t Jess’s revenge body that raised eyebrows last week. In a shocking Snapchat video that surfaced online, Jess, 27, was seen slurring her words and driving while seemingly drunk, even joking with her aunt that they would get in trouble if they got caught. The leaked video appears to have been filmed recently as she refers to the fact she’s “going through a break-up”. The worrying video comes as a source close to the reality bride reveals to Woman’s Day that her love of the bottle is nothing new. “There’s…

Meanwhile, a friend close to the pair reveals the MAFS favourites have been in the process of shopping around for a manager “who can catapult their public image further”…

KEEP SAMANTHA KNIGHT’S KILLER LOCKED UP When nine-year-old Samantha Knight was snatched from the street near her Bondi home on August 19, 1986, it was the kind of story that made every parent hug their children a little tighter. TV appeals to find her were futile – the angelic blonde seemingly just vanished from the street. The nation was shocked when serial paedophile Michael Guider admitted he killed little Samantha. To this day the evil murderer has not revealed where the little girl’s body is. Guider’s sentence will expire in June this year and Adelaide mum-of-two Chantelle Hamilton is fighting against his release with everything she’s got. “I want him kept behind bars so he can never kill again, because mark my words, he will,” she says. It’s an atrocious…
