When Aussie legend John Cornell passed away in 2021, the tributes came in thick and fast. He was rightfully remembered as a leading light in journalism, television, sport and film. Now almost a year on, we also remember John – or “Strop” – as a dedicated father and adoring husband to wife Delvene Delaney (p10), who covers this week’s fabulous issue. It’s a relationship that reminds me so much of my parents, Phil and Sylvia, in that it’s completely “true blue” and filled with love and so many laughs! Family is everything. Woman’s Day found that out on p36, when we chatted to proud Pertame, Southern Arrernte woman and Aboriginal elder Christobel Swan, who is working to keep her native language alive for future generations.…

It’s a love story for the ages – one that continues to inspire even after Delvene Delaney’s heartbreaking loss of the brilliant, funny and brave John Cornell, who she spent the best part of a joyful half century loving and tirelessly supporting. “Dele is doing alright. She misses John dreadfully, but she really is doing OK,” reveals one family friend to Woman’s Day, who describes Delvene as “strong and resilient”. Thankfully, the mate notes the TV star has been showered in love from her daughters, grandchildren and close friends. John’s death on July 23 last year, after a 20-year battle with Parkinson’s disease, came as “almost a blessing” for his close mate and showbiz partner Paul Hogan, but left a gaping hole in devastated Delvene’s heart. ‘BRAVEST MAN’ She devoted…
While the Queen remains determined to stay on the throne until her final breath, even the beloved monarch is starting to accept that it’s time for her next in line to step up. Woman’s Day understands the palace is in “the late stages” of drawing up a regency for Prince Charles – meaning he will rule in the unfortunate event the Queen is no longer able. The news comes after Her Majesty, 96, failed to appear at the Royal Ascot races for the first time since her 1953 coronation due to her mobility issues. Charles, 73, is “ready to formalise the role he has essentially been doing since last year”, says a source. “He knows he won’t reign for long, but he is already in charge of the day to…

BEATRICE & EUGENIE: GETTING THE CHOP! While their granny has always taken care to unofficially include them in royal life, sources say princesses Beatrice, 33, and Eugenie, 32, can expect to all but be banished from royal duties once she is gone. “There’s a reason Beatrice…
A new interview with the Duchess of Cornwall lays bare just how determined Camilla is to be the perfect queen consort when her husband takes the throne. The soon-to-be 75-year-old tells British Vogue she’ll carry on with the same work she’s doing now, including supporting victims of domestic violence. She also proved matter-of-fact when asked about the public backlash against her from when she was found to be having an affair with Charles while he was still married to Princess Diana. “It’s not easy,” she says, candidly. “I was scrutinised for such a long time and you just have to find a way to live with it. Nobody likes to be looked at all the time… but I think in the end, I sort of rise above it and get…
