Innholdsfortegnelse for 2002 i Woman's Day

The notes section of my phone is filled with endless lists – the names of books I’m dying to read, restaurants I want to try and movies I’ve been desperate to watch for years. And while I keep telling myself I’ll get to them all eventually, truth be told, the lists just keep getting longer and longer. But as they say, “new year, new you”, and in 2020 I’m determined to cross things off my lists – and add plenty more to them too, of course! What better place to start than this very special holiday issue of Woman’s Day. With our round-up of must-see TV for the new year and the podcasts everyone’s talking about, I’ll certainly be busy!…

If 2019 was the Queen’s worst year ever, 2020 is looking a lot rosier for the 93-year-old monarch. Woman’s Day has learned Her Majesty has been informed she has three more great-grandchildren on the way, with the Duchesses of Cambridge and Sussex and Princess Eugenie all expecting a little one this year. “The Queen is overjoyed at the news,” says a source. “She feels it will really turn the family’s fortunes around. And there’s nothing like the pitter-patter of little feet to bring people back together – with so much feuding and scandal in the family this past year, she’s desperate to bring the feuding Windsor clan back together.” Just last week UK betting agency Ladbrokes slashed the odds on who would be the next royal to welcome a baby,…

It was Charlize Theron’s 2003 Oscar-winning turn as female serial killer and prostitute Aileen Wuornos, who brutally killed seven men in 1989 and 1990, that reignited an explosion in movies and TV shows about serial killers. Hollywood has long known that terror sells, with fictional characters such as Frankenstein, Count Dracula, Nosferatu and the Phantom of the Opera frightening cinema goers since the early 1900s. However, these days fiction has been replaced with reality, with Hollywood now churning out movies and TV series based on real-life monsters – serial killers more perverse, ghoulish and depraved than even the most imaginative writer could conjure. Names such as Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, David Berkowitz and Wayne Gacy are the objects of today’s horror stories – real-life killers who intrigue and…

For months the royal family has been desperately investigating a leak within the palace, after whispers began to circulate that someone was disclosing incredibly sensitive information to writers of hit Netflix show The Crown. Now, the finger is being pointed at someone within the walls of Buckingham Palace – and all eyes are on the Duchess of Cornwall! “She’s been accused of being the culprit after a string of suspicious emails were found between her and the show’s producer, Suzanne Mackie,” one palace insider tells Woman’s Day exclusively. “There are details about Camilla and Charles’ relationship which no one apart from them would have ever known... Camilla must be to blame.” PRIVATE CONVERSATIONS According to our source, Prince Charles, 71, even confronted Camilla, 72, at one point, which led to…

While her son faces an uphill battle with his marriage, Denmark’s Queen Margrethe is said to be getting very close to a family friend! The monarch was snapped looking overjoyed as she went about her Christmas holiday in London, accompanied by her long-time confidant Count Gustaf Trolle-Bonde, 76. The pair was spotted leaving a hotel together in Chelsea where the Swedish count joined the monarch in her car, before they took off to the National Gallery, where they spent the rest of the day together. Gustaf has been a close acquaintance of 79-year-old Margrethe. “They share a very special bond – they’re like two peas in a pod,” says a source close to the royal. “She’s relied very much on his support since her husband’s death and he makes the…

Cricket WAG Kyly Clarke has scored the role of a lifetime as a judge on Seven’s new-look House Rules. And while the 38-year-old interior designer is thrilled to be bringing her expertise to the show, friends say her new role has opened a string of marital wounds with her former Australian cricket captain husband Michael Clarke. “Kyly is feeling the pressure financially because she has had to step up and be the main breadwinner in the family, while Michael tries to secure a regular media job or even a coaching role,” one insider tells Woman’s Day, adding the sports star has struggled to land a stable job for some time. According to the source, Michael’s main media job is a gig out of India during the Indian Premier League season,…

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that causes inflamed, red, scaly patches anywhere on the skin – but most commonly on the knees, elbows and scalp. The condition is more than skin deep though. Up to 30 per cent of sufferers can also experience pain, swelling and tenderness of joints known as psoriatic arthritis. Despite large numbers with the condition, there are myths that need to be cleared up. IT’S CONTAGIOUS FICTION “That’s a big misconception,” says Dr Steven Feldman, dermatology professor at the Wake Forest School of Medicine. It’s important to understand psoriasis is not contagious at all. It’s a condition caused by the immune system, so cannot be contracted by others. Despite this, some people with psoriasis may have experienced things like being banned from public swimming pools. In…

It was supposed to be a time to celebrate their two youngest children being christened, but instead David Beckham spent the special occasion tearing his hair out over his “tyrannical” wife Victoria. A source tells Woman’s Day tensions began mounting between the couple in the days before the no-expenses-spared ceremony for Cruz, 14, and Harper, eight – at a time when their marriage is widely reported to be on extremely fragile ground. “Victoria was a mad woman. She wanted everything to be perfect – you’d think she was planning a wedding,” says a source. “She was throwing orders like there was no tomorrow to her staff – and David bore a lot of the brunt of it, too. By the time the actual christening rolled around, David could barely bring…

SAMARA WEAVING, 27 Acting is clearly in the genes for the niece of Aussie Hugh Weaving. Samara’s star has been on a steady ascent since she left behind her character, Indi Walker, on Home And Away in 2013. While getting mistaken as Margot Robbie was almost a daily occurrence when she first moved to the US, Samara made her mark with a memorable performance in the Oscar-winning Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, which she described as a “nerve-racking but fantastic experience”. Now the actress has moved into gory black comedies, starring in The Babysitter and Ready Or Not, and has three films in production including Snake Eyes, the third instalment of the GI Joe franchise. CHRIS PANG, 34 While he may be known to some from his role in the…
