Innholdsfortegnelse for Issue 7, 2023 i Woman's Day

Here at Woman’s Day we pride ourselves on bringing you inspirational stories, so I’m pleased to announce we’re kicking off a monthly series called Woman’s Day cares… which will shine a spotlight on topical issues and the unsung heroes creating positive change in our communities. In this issue, we meet the beautiful Angi (p39) who, when confronted with her husband Michael’s early onset Alzheimer’s, set up a network of Forget Me Not Memory Cafes across WA so people could catch up for a coffee, tea and a good chinwag. And when it comes to heroic, it doesn’t get more heartbreaking than 10-year-old Nicholas Tadros’ mum Vanessa, whose quick thinking during the Sea World helicopter tragedy saved his life, although tragically not her own. Take care,…

The series, which is only in pilot stage, will see the former Desperate Housewives star play “highly regarded” attorney Janet Stewart.

Sources confirm the When Harry Met Sally star, 61, who became close with Teddi during her tumultuous on-off romance with the 71-Year-old rocker, reached out over concerns for Teddi. However, friends say any hopes of a reunion are likely to come short as Meg is determined to resist his charms. “She’s never going back to John and he knows it,” says an insider. “He’s seeing a new woman but has never given up hope of getting back with Meg.” Ironically, the singer met skincare expert Marianelly Agosto, 44, through his daughter.…

But now he has sparked concerns the couple’s issues could be more serious than first thought. “I’ve had some turbulent things going on in my personal life,” Ed, 31, confessed on Instagram. “I just didn’t really feel like being online and pretending to be something I’m not when I wasn’t feeling like that.” In the past, Ed has admitted his hectic schedule is tough on his marriage. “Something has to give,” he confessed.…

While Lisa Marie’s family faces at least an agonising month or longer wait to receive her toxicology results, a new report may shed a tragic light over her untimely passing. According to TMZ, Lisa had relapsed into her opioid addiction in recent months - and was also taking a cocktail of weight-loss drugs. She reportedly shed a shocking 18 to 23 kilograms in the lead-up to her appearance alongside Priscilla at the Golden Globes - just days before her cardiac arrest death. At the event, in which Austin Butler won best actor for portraying her late father in Elvis, Lisa appeared shaky on her feet and slurred her words. Sources close to the family can’t help but compare Lisa’s death to that of her father’s. Elvis died of a heart…

After 15 long years, the former Bondi Vet star announced last week that he was leaving the network, and Woman’s Day’s top insiders say the reaction at Ten has been nothing short of a “nightmare”.

Fans would never suspect someone as famous as Pamela Anderson would routinely have her credit card declined. But the star has confessed to the director of her new documentary that she’s struggled financially for years. In her Netflix special, Pamela, A Love Story, her eldest son, Brandon Thomas Lee, says he wishes the Baywatch star “would have made money” from her infamous 1996 sex tape with then-husband Tommy Lee. “She would have made millions of dollars if she had just signed the paper” says the 26-year-old of his actress mum, who refused to cash in on the video, which was stolen by a tradesman and sold online. “Instead she sat back with nothing and watched her career fizzle… She’s been in debt most of her life.” But not any longer.…

Wellness Be well with Woman’s Day YOUR ULIMATE GUIDE TO BEING THE BEST YOU There are any number of reasons to try to eat a healthy diet - fitness, healthy longevity, better mental health, energy levels, skin and hair health… But one of the most important is that it’s good for your heart. “Lifestyle choices, including the food and drink we put into our body, can have an impact on several heart-disease risk factors, including blood pressure, cholesterol levels, excess weight (especially around the middle) and diabetes risk,” says dietitian and nutrition scientist Dr Joanna McMillan. Essentially, the guidance is that we should all eat a variety of wholefoods, while reducing our intake of ultra-processed foods.

Hugging things out There seemed to be no coming back from the tense moment last April when Jason Sudeikis served ex Olivia Wilde with custody papers on stage at CinemaCon in Las Vegas. But the pair appeared to be burying the hatchet - or at least attempting to - during an uncomfortable catch-up in Los Angeles. Despite their public dramas, a source says the stars - who share custody of son Otis, eight, and daughter Daisy, six - have recently "transitioned into a great co-parenting routine”. The insider says things have become more “cordial” since Olivia, 38, split from singer Harry Styles in November. “Olivia has been focusing all her energy on her kids and family since her split from Harry” says the source. “Now that they’ve broken up, it’s…

As news broke that Scientology leader David Miscavige has been missing for more than four months, Tom Cruise was seen looking stressed as he left a dinner in London’s swanky Mayfair. Lawyers are hunting for David, 62, the controversial church head - and one of Tom’s confidants - to serve him papers in a civil child trafficking suit brought by former members of the organisation’s mysterious Sea Org. And the scandal comes after Scientology, and devoted follower Tom, 60, became the butt of jokes at the Golden Globes. Comedian Jerrod Carmichael mocked the mystery of David’s missing wife, Shelly, 62, who hasn’t been seen in public since 2007. “Backstage, I found these three Golden Globe Awards that Tom Cruise returned,” he joked to the crowd. “I think maybe we take…

She earned herself some fans following her refreshingly candid approach to sex, but an on-set sleuth is telling us that Melissa, 41, isn’t a big fan of her sexed-up edit! “Melissa is mortified and embarrassed even leaving her house right now,” says our source. “She’s been made to look like a sex pest, which is the opposite of what she’s really like!” According to the insider, Mel’s sister has begun contacting former cast members via sociaL media and “asking them to post that she’s not as over the top as she’s being made out”. “Producers definitely prodded her into saying those soundbites after she’d had a few wines [at the hens party].

Hair might be technically totally dead, but it’s rife with emotion. Bad hair days are real - scientists have confirmed that our moods are inextricably linked to the state of our strands. But none of that compares to the horror of seeing clumps of hair clogging the shower drain. Thankfully, thinning hair is not necessarily a permanent problem. Working out why your locks are languishing is the first step to finding a solution. Scalp solutions “A healthy scalp won’t prevent hair thinning, but an unhealthy one can make the hair thinning worse,” says Lisa Caddy, trichologist at Philip Kingsley. “Like the skin on your face, your scalp also benefits from gentle exfoliation.” Philip Kingsley Exfoliating Scalp Mask $42.90 Pantene Miracle Mask Biotin $11.99 works to hydrate dry, brittle hair and…

Royal news For someone who last year described herself and her husband as “like salt and pepper. We always move together” the Duchess of Sussex sure has been absent from Prince Harry’s side as the fallout from his book continues. Despite her husband’s two-month media blitz across Los Angeles, New York and London, 41-year-old Meghan was yet to be seen in public at the time of going to press.

Making news Lisa Marie Presley had not even been in her final resting place for a week before a family war over her estate burst into the public domain. Her mother Priscilla, 77, last week filed documents in the Los Angeles Superior Court contesting a “purported 2016 amendment” to her 54-year-old daughter’s will that cut her out of the estate, naming Lisa’s daughter Riley, 33, and late son Ben - who died by suicide aged 27 in 2020 - as sole beneficiaries.

At just 30 years of age, Jordan Rodrigues has a résumé most Aussie actors would kill for. Cutting his teeth playing bad boy Jai Fernandez on Home And Away before moving onto cult dance series Dance Academy, Jordan launched himself into a series of lauded Hollywood films such as the Oscar-nominated Lady Bird and blockbuster animated films Mortal Kombat Legends. And now, Jordan has perhaps reached the apex, starring alongside Catherine Zeta-Jones in the big budgeted Disney+ series National Treasure: Edge Of History. “This is definitely the biggest production I’ve ever been part of.
