Innholdsfortegnelse for 2032 i Woman's Day

If there’s one thing guaranteed to unite people the world over, it’s the Olympic Games. But 2020 had other ideas and this year we are united in another way – by staying at home. We’ll be waiting a little longer for the chance to watch our sporting greats battle it out against the world’s best once more, so this week, the Woman’s Day team got nostalgic and revisited “the best Games ever” (p36). Yes, as hard as it is to believe, it’s been 20 years since the Sydney 2000 Olympics. We’ve rounded up the 10 most memorable moments from the party of the new millennium, and the trip down memory lane has us counting down the days until we can once again cheer on our Aussie heroes.…

According to her fans, popstar Britney Spears appears to have resorted to using coded messages on social media to communicate with them as they spearhead the campaign for her freedom. “When fans started to question her wellbeing on her social media, they would say things like, ‘wear yellow if you need help’ and sure enough the next day she would post strange videos of herself dancing in yellow,” a source explains. “There have been a few examples like this in the past couple of weeks.” The concerning posts come as committed fans are working hard for the 38-year-old superstar to regain control over her business and personal affairs. Britney’s career has been in the hands of legal guardians known as a conservatorship since 2007. According to our source, Britney’s fans…

Fresh from her break-up with Pretty Little Liars star Ashley Benson, British model Cara Delevingne has set her sights on Kaia Gerber! But insiders tell Woman’s Day the new romance is far from welcome news for Kaia’s model mum Cindy Crawford! Last week, the 18-year-old was snapped in an intimate embrace with Cara 27, at a protest in LA, sparking reports of a burgeoning relationship. “Just when Cindy and [her husband] Rande Gerber thought they got her out of trouble with her boyfriend Pete [Davidson], Cara is not the improvement they’d hoped for,” a source tells. “Cindy just doesn’t know what to do. She has no problem with Kaia exploring her sexuality but of all people, why the most infamous party queen on the scene?” Cara became embroiled in scandal…

While she certainly made her mark fronting The Voice this year, it seems host Renee Bargh has her eye on an even more lucrative position after announcing she’s moving back to Australia for good. The 34-year-old revealed her plans to come home last week, after spending more than 10 years in the US. And after rubbing shoulders with the likes of Oprah Winfrey and Tom Cruise, a co-hosting role on The Voice won’t cut the mustard, say insiders. A source close to the star tells Woman’s Day Renee’s gunning for a coach’s chair on next year’s show. But as there’d be no room for two Aussie blondes, that means she’ll be looking to replace bestie Delta Goodrem, 35! “She’d jump at the opportunity,” our show insider reveals. “It won’t matter…

Not only is Bea now stepmum to Edo’s four-year-old son Wolfie, but there are rumours there was more than one reason the princess opted for a secret ceremony rather than wait to have a big royal wedding after the pandemic. According to palace sources , the princess is desperate to have her own child with Edo, and some believe she could already be pregnant. “Bea can’t wait to have kids of her own,” one royal insider revealed in the days following the wedding. “She’s planning to start a family with Edo very soon.”…

When popular UK pop singer – and longtime close friend of the younger royals – Ellie Goulding, 33, went on record last week to praise the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge for their impressive work keeping British spirits up during the pandemic, a mention of Prince Harry was conspicuously absent. “It was a strange thing to say, since she’s actually closest with Prince Harry out of all of them,” says an insider. “Well, she was until Meghan came on the scene. She probably realised what great chemistry Ellie and Harry had – and have had since they were in their early 20s – and put the kibosh on that quick smart.” Ellie’s not the only Harry associate who’s found herself out in the cold since he began dating his American…

Growing up, Marnie says it was the infectious tunes and dazzling allure of country star Dolly Parton that made her childhood golden. “I grew up with my mum’s best friend and she used to play her music in the car all the time,” the 48-year-old tells Woman’s Day. And while her blonde locks and cowboy style were inspired by the hit maker, the lovable mum-of-two insists she draws the line at having her breasts augmented to match! “My boobs are real, they’re good, don’t worry about that. It runs in the family, we’ve all got them,” she laughs.…

Despite Australian Ninja Warrior star Cian Maciejewski missing out on being crowned a winner last season, the fierce competitor has still managed to win big! Last year, the athlete married her soulmate and fellow Ninja competitor Tiarna Grzona, and now the pair tell Woman’s Day, they’re ready for a baby! “The first year of marriage has been amazing!” Cian excitedly declares. “We had our honeymoon over in China, where we got some breathtaking photos taken on top of the Great Wall of China in our wedding dresses,” she says of the happy memory. “It is going to sound so damn cliche but I mean it when I say this, ‘When you meet someone who you feel was truly made for you... it brings a whole new perspective to your life…

When Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, shared a touching image of herself with Lisa Marie Presley, supporting her over the death of her son Benjamin, many were shocked to learn the pair were friends. But a source tells Woman’s Day the pair are so close that Lisa once almost managed to convince Fergie, 60, to dabble in Scientology. “Back when they first became close, Lisa was still with the church – who obviously saw their chance to get a member of the British royal family on board. It would have been amazing for their PR efforts,” says a source. “I heard she went in for an auditing session and was a little too intimidated.”…

Adelaide mum Julie Wong-Ogisi is grateful for every breath she takes after a double lung transplant gave her a second chance at life. Julie was diagnosed with a rare lung disorder that left her lungs severely scarred and functioning at less than 40 per cent capacity. Just five years ago Julie, 52, was leading a busy life as an active mum to son Jared, now 14, when she began experiencing shortness of breath, fatigue and persistent coughing, which quickly became so bad she was unable to walk just a few steps without gasping for air. “My immune system began attacking my lungs and I would have to catch my breath just walking around the house,” she says. “I felt like my whole life disappeared and I was left thinking, ‘Will…

Keanu Reeves and longtime love Alexandra Grant are taking their relationship to the next step, with insiders revealing the actor, 55, and the artist, 47, are looking to adopt! “They’ve spoken to a couple of agencies, but it’s still very early days,” dishes a source. “Like everyone else, they’ll have to go through the lengthy adoption process before anything is set in stone. It’s not going to happen overnight.” The John Wick star is said to have given up on having kids after his girlfriend Jennifer Syme gave birth to a stillborn child in 1999, but meeting Alexandra has changed everything. “There’s no doubt Keanu will make a fantastic father,” adds the source. “He’s great with all of his friends’ kids and isn’t the type of guy who’ll mind getting…

You’d think with just 18 guests attending Princess Beatrice’s nuptials, the chances for drama would be minimal. But sadly for the princess, one of the royal family’s most troublesome relatives, the Duchess of Sussex, managed to put a damper on her Windsor wedding reception last weekend – from thousands of kilometres away in her rented Los Angeles home. Woman’s Day has learned that the 31-year-old bride had to be consoled “through floods of tears” when she learned that Meghan was badmouthing her dress and tiara. “Close family members were sent photos almost immediately after the ceremony was over, including Meghan and [Prince] Harry. It was important to Beatrice that her family were involved despite their socially distant wedding,” says a source. “Apparently Meghan immediately picked on the dress – without…

Rachel Jones is vying for the affection of Tasmanian-based Farmer Nick this season, but nine years ago the 42-year-old sat down with Woman’s Day to talk about a very different suitor! The pretty blonde was snapped all over Sydney with Hollywood superstar Keanu Reeves, who was in town filming a Matrix sequel in 2001. Rachel and the  actor were often seen embracing passionately. The journalist said her first thoughts were, “Oh my god, what will my mum think? She’s just going to die.” When asked about whether Keanu was good in bed, she painted a saucy image. “Is the Pope a Catholic?” she laughed.…

Most 14-year-old girls would have fun riding their bikes, going to a school disco or hosting sleepovers, but not Suri Cruise! The daughter of Katie Holmes, 41, and Tom Cruise, 58, hit the streets of New York City last week looking all grown up as she enjoyed lunch at trendy West Village eatery Bubby’s with two of her close friends. Normally flanked by her mum or dutifully watched over by her nanny, independent Suri looked more than ready to take on the world herself, something Katie would no doubt be proud of. “My biggest goal has always been to nurture her in her individuality. To make sure she is 100 per cent herself and strong, confident and able,” the proud actress has said. Wearing a soft pink dress and carrying…

JACKSON HOOKS UP WITH A PRODUCER! While he had a smorgasbord of eligible Bachelorettes vying for his attention, it appears intruder Jackson Garlick only had eyes for one of the producers! A source tells Woman’s Day the producer was so enthralled by the boys, especially Jackson, 26, they ended up leaving the island together. “She [the producer] had her eyes on a lot of the boys but she ended up hooking up with Jackson,” the insider says, adding that the two hit it off so much they continued their romance after filming finished. “They were seeing each other quite a bit after the show – they definitely gave it a red hot go.” While production would love to palm this off as an isolated incident, it appears this isn’t the…

Diet, exercise, meditation... every successful Ninja has their go-to approach in preparing for the country’s toughest obstacle course. But this year, three-time grand final champion Sam Goodall, 33, has a secret weapon up his sleeve... actually, in his backyard!

Never one to shy away from the truths of her past, actress Drew Barrymore chose US Father’s Day this year to open up about the effect her tumultuous upbringing has had on her life, revealing how she’s finally made peace with her parents John and Jaid Barrymore. “My mum chose a wild card for my dad. He was a mad poet hedonist man-child! But I understood that as a kid,” the 45-year-old began, adding, “Somehow I have zero baggage or dad issues. “I think I’d have liked to have a dad who didn’t look so out there. Or who stayed. Or was capable of anything really. But his wildness runs through me. His gifts are here. His demons to overcome are mine to break!” she declared to her millions of…

Proud Melbourne mum Alyssa Biddle and her fiance Jonathon Tripp are often asked if their two beautiful blonde-haired daughters are twins despite the two-year age gap between Sienna and Bonnie. “When we go out together, I can see that some people do stare at us, as obviously we look a bit different from some other families,” says Alyssa. “I also get asked every day if the girls are related. Obviously as Sienna has dwarfism, and Bonnie does not, you can tell that people have questions.” Alyssa, 29, and Jonathon, 40, were both born with a slightly different type of dwarfism, as was four-year-old Sienna. When Bonnie was born in July 2018, she was the spitting image of Sienna, but didn’t have dwarfism. Alyssa says complete strangers stop her several times…

It can be difficult to resist food cravings, whether it’s a 3pm pick-me-up or a sneaky midnight snack. But have you ever wondered why your cravings exist? Amazonia’s accredited sports dietitian Tara Kaff explains the reason behind your urge to snack. HOW DO CRAVINGS DEVELOP? “Food cravings arise from psychological, social and biological factors,” says Tara. “For example, low blood sugar levels are a biological factor, someone’s upbringing and their conditioning is a social factor, and stress is a psychological factor.” You may have heard the idea that if you’re craving a certain food, like chocolate, then you may not be consuming enough of a certain nutrient, like magnesium. Tara dispels this myth and adds, “In the vast majority of cases, there is no truth to the theory that food…

When photos of a married Justin Timberlake getting handsy with his co-star Alisha Wainwright during a boozy night out surfaced late last year, fans were quick to write off the hit maker’s nearly eight-year marriage to Jessica Biel. But last week, it was revealed The Sinner star, 38, had given birth to the couple’s second child, a baby boy!

Sam Frost and Tim Franklin have been lighting up our TV screens ever since they debuted their romance on Home And Away in August last year.

Woman’s Day can reveal that the former Bachelorette, 31, and Tim, 29, have been secretly dating for months, with our source revealing “they’re obsessed with each other”. “They’ve been seeing each other in secret for months, but Sam’s wanted it kept on the down low after the horrendous split with Dave [Bashford] last year,” our Home And Away insider explains. “She’s smitten, and she really wants them to be the next big TV couple.” In January, Woman’s Day…

With his windswept blond hair and impish grin, it could be argued that Prince George looks like several members of his mum and dad’s families. But those close to the royal couple say Prince William is struck most of all by how similar his eldest son is to George’s late grandmother, Princess Diana. These adorable new photos were released by the Duchess of Cambridge – who snapped the images herself – on George’s seventh birthday .

As Nicole Kidman made her triumphant return to Australia with her husband and children in tow, touching down in Sydney in the dead of night last week, she couldn’t have been happier. After all, she’d just pulled off the coup of her career – earning the right to work on a $100 million miniseries set in her native NSW, with the full support of the government and a glittering cast on board, while basing herself out of her stunning Southern Highlands mansion. The actress, 53, is self-isolating there with Keith Urban, 52, and their daughters Sunday, 12 and Faith, nine, as she prepares to call action on Nine Perfect Strangers, which is based on author Liane Moriarty’s popular novel. OUT IN THE COLD The only problem is, back in Los…

They’ve been the greatest of friends ever since meeting as young mums in Wollongong, south of Sydney, 35 years ago, and now the pair are literally inseparable after Judy Mitchell gave Lorraine Anker one of her kidneys. “I’m very conscious that she’s with me always,” says Lorraine, 67. “Sometimes I do things and think, ‘Oh, that’s Judy reacting within me, it’s very special.’” The mum-of-three was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease at 29, but lived symptom-free until 2009 when suddenly everything changed. Doing something simple, like washing her hair, left Lorraine completely exhausted. ‘It’s a remarkable gift Judy has given me’ A blood test soon revealed her kidneys were functioning at only 15 per cent capacity because of the disease, which causes cysts to grow on the kidneys, impairing their…

This could be a truly magical week – no kidding! There’s a wonderful and major alignment happening between Jupiter, the planet that amplifies, and Neptune, the planet of dreams, soulmates and poetry. In other words, even though this year has a lot to answer for, maybe something is finally shifting. The best thing we can all do is meditate. Yes, really! And visualise – a lot! Why? Because Neptune, which is being triggered by the good luck planet, is the energy we all need when we want to use our imagination to dream up a more beautiful life, a dream come true or romantic ideals. Yes, all that! Maybe it’s time for the whole human race to start dreaming up a better way for us all to be. Have we…

ACCREDITED PRACTISING DIETITIAN MELANIE McGRICE REVEALS WHAT SOME OF THE MOST COMMON FOOD CRAVINGS MEAN AND GREAT TIPS ON HOW TO HANDLE THEM... CHOCOLATE “You could be craving chocolate for energy – in which case, have a cup of green tea – or for psychological reasons. If it’s comfort you want, try a non-food reward such as having a massage or a hot bath.” PASTA “It’s a common comfort food because the carbohydrates increase your brain’s serotonin production, making you feel happier. I’d recommend eating the pasta but keep it to just one cup (when cooked),” she adds. SOFT DRINK “People often crave the caffeine and/or sugar in soft drink for an energy boost. Try swapping to green tea instead.”…
