BETRAYED BY THE BUTLER It’s no secret that Harry has never been a fan of his mother’s former butler going so far as to call him a “two-faced sh*t”. So when asked about Paul Burrell, 65, while on the stand, Harry didn’t hold back. “Both my brother and I had very strong feelings about how indiscreet Paul had proven to be with the way he sold our mother’s possessions and how he had given numerous interviews about her,” he told the court. TRUST ISSUES Harry revealed he now knows the fear his mother was feeling ahead of her car crash in Paris in 1997. The duke explained that he too has suffered from the same “paranoia” over the years, adding that he felt he couldn’t trust his former nanny Tiggy…

• ON STARTING ONE OF THE BIGGEST JOBS IN AUSSIE TV “I’m so excited and am just really keen to get into the chair. I have a lot to learn, but I feel really confident at the moment." • ON WHETHER HE KNOW HE WAS BEING PRIMED FOR THE ROLE “There had been a murmuring, but I didn’t know exactly when Kochie was keen to hang up the boots… it hasn’t been known for long. We wanted to be respectful for Kochie and go at his pace. But I guess it started when Craig McPherson asked me to fill in on a regular basis for Kochie on Fridays when he stepped back to four days, and I just jumped at the chance.” • ON THIS DREAM OF ONE DAY BEING…

Hollywood heavyweight Harrison Ford has opened up about his shock fallout with his co-star Brad Pitt on the set of the 1997 action thriller The Devil’s Own. According to the Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny star, the pair had “different ideas” about the film’s script. “Brad developed the script. Then they offered me the part. I saved my comments about the character and the construction of the thing,” says the 80-year-old Hollywood icon. According to Harrison, as soon as the cameras started rolling, there was trouble between him and his now-59-year-old co-star. “Each of us had different ideas about it. I understand why he wanted to stay with his point of view, and I wanted to stay with my point of view - or I was imposing my…

Celebrity news For any couple who've been lucky enough to enjoy a decades-long union, one thing they'd almost always agree on is that marriage is hard work. And one of the most enduring couples in showbiz, Cameron Daddo and Alison Brahe, can attest to that, after announcing that after more than 30 years together, they've made a major decision. “We've recently gone back into some couple's therapy,” Cameron, 58, announced on their hit podcast Separate Bathrooms, adding that while their relationship “is at an 11” they chose to “jump back into a little maintenance”. “Sometimes we can get lost in the minutiae of little things feeling like they are huge things,” Alison, 53, clarifies. “And that's why I was saying to you the other day, I said, ‘We actually have…

TV update TV STARS IN CRISIS Karl Stefanovic has opened up about his youngest daughter’s “scary” ongoing health battle, one year after he rushed her to hospital with breathing difficulties. “Almost a year ago, my daughter Harper scared the living daylights out of us,” the 48-year-old announced on Today. “Struggling to breathe, we rushed her to the GP, then to hospital. There, we discovered the scary combination of letters we had never heard of before, RSV,” he detailed. RSV stands for respiratory syncytial virus, an illness that, while common, can prove fatal for infants. “She was in a lot of pain,” he says, adding that it had been hard for him and wife Jasmine, 39, to see “how quickly Harper went downhill”. “It felt like a normal cold and flu. [Then]…

Could Ten’s most famous face be preparing to jump ship? A top insider tells Woman’s Day Sandra Sully, 58, has been quietly approached by other networks following several disaster years for Ten. “She’s acutely aware of the number of stars who have walked recently – Dr Chris Brown, Carrie Bickmore – and with news that its US backer Paramount has recently suffered a massive fall in stock price, let’s just say she would be forgiven for weighing up her options,” says the spy. Despite being touted as “Australia’s number-one female news anchor”, her show 10 News First is consistently pummelled in the ratings each night, only just beating SBS.…

Queen Margrethe’s oldest grandson, Count Nikolai, is swapping Copenhagen for Sydney in September. The 23-year-old will move to the harbourside city with his designer girlfriend Benedikte Thoustrup so he can study business at UTS for a semester – and there’s no doubt he’ll cause a stir in the city. Often likened to Hollywood star Timothee Chalamet because of his green eyes and dark features, the Dior model became a social media sensation when he walked alongside Cara Delevingne for a Burberry show in 2018. Prince Joachim’s son from his fi rst marriage to Alexandra, Countess of Frederiksborg, is seventh in line to the Danish throne, but was stripped of his royal title last year and retitled Count Nikolai of Monpezat. Close friends with his cousin Christian, who was in Sydney…

Kim’s had a change of heart about plastic surgery, too! While she once swore off going under the knife in an effort to “embrace ageing”, the actress admits she’s now happy to have a little extra help. “I’m in my 60s now and I’m all about battling ageing in every way I can. There are fillers, Botox, there are so many different things that you can investigate and try and see if it’s for you,” said the actress. “It’s not just a vanity thing. I play a certain kind of woman who looks a certain kind of way. And professionally I am looking after myself.” But she has some clear provisos. “[Do it] if you have the money and, more importantly, the right surgeon. It can’t be emphasised enough. You…

Real life Only in Women's Day A former inmate of Kathleen Folbigg has revealed the “horrendous” treatment the “killer mum” experienced during her first few months in jail. “I was there when she first got brought into prison. She was really quiet and teary – I think she was in a complete state of shock,” Roxanne Holmes, 57, tells Woman’s Day. “She didn’t really communicate with the other inmates.” ‘Kathleen was treated horrendously… she was terrified’ The pair shared a cell wall inside Mulawa Correctional Centre’s isolation wing in 2003, where Kathleen was transferred for her own protection after receiving death threats from fellow prisoners. “Everyone treated Kathleen like she was a baby killer - people spat in her food, on her door, people yelled abuse. She was treated horrendously,”…

While TV networks have been fighting it out for the exclusive sit-down interview with Kathleen, there are also reports her story will be recreated as a major drama. Film insiders reveal producers will take inspiration from Australian crime cases that have dominated news headlines such as Seven’s The Claremont Murders and Nine’s popular drama about the Melissa Caddick case, Underbelly: Vanishing Act. Kate Ritchie, 44, who starred in Claremont, has been named among a number of Aussie stars potentially throwing their hat in the ring to play Kathleen. While the networks reportedly negotiated with Kathleen’s new celebrity talent agent Nick Fordham over the tell-all, at the time of publication, 7News Spotlight had the winning bid, with sources saying the show would pay more than $400,000 to secure the exclusive chat.…

• Aussie native grevilleas are a very diverse group of plants, ranging from ground covers to shrubs to towering trees. Most flower best across the cooler months so now is the ideal time to find a variety or two to love and get planting. • Many climbers are dormant this time of year, which makes them a bit more manageable to plant.

Princess Eugenie and her proud husband Jack Brooksbank are “over the moon” with the May 30 arrival of their second baby boy, Ernest George Ronnie - a little brother for two-year-old August. “Jack and I wanted to share the news that we had our little boy,” Eugenie announced on Instagram last week. “He is named after his great great great Grandfather George, his Grandpa George and my Grandpa Ronald. Augie is loving being a big brother already.” FAMILY COMES FIRST Now, friends of the elated couple say the adorable new addition to the British royals has made the pair even more protective of their growing family - which spells bad news for Eugenie’s cooling friendship with her cousin Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. “Eugenie hasn’t outright…

Jock Zonfrillo’s widow Lauren Fried has admitted the chef was in the middle of several side projects at the time of his death in April, and it’s now been revealed that one of them was a series of interviews with his fellow celebrity chefs. According to Jock’s friends, the MasterChef star would regularly record private chats on his phone in his Ten trailer. “They weren’t anything to do with MasterChef… they were just for him, from what I could gather,” says Jock’s friend, fellow chef Luke Nguyen, 44, who filmed a 15-minute interview with the TV star just before his death. “There were all kinds of questions recorded for what I guess [were] his own personal archives. We would talk about everything from food to what we were doing in…

He’s in Australia for his national tour this month - and Michael Buble wants to make himself a permanent fixture Down Under! “I honestly have been speaking about it with my wife. We love it here so much and we love holidaying here that we’ve talked about it a few times. It’s so far away that it would be cool to have something here,” the crooner tells Woman’s Day. It’s not Michael’s only bombshell. During a recent appearance on The Project, the 47-year-old beamed when talking about fatherhood, and fans are convinced another baby Buble could soon be on the way. “You’ll never in your life ever look back on your life and say, ‘I wish I hadn’t met this little girl or this little boy,”’ the father-of-four said when…

Only in Woman’s Day Anew Gogglebox Australia star is set to arrive on our screens later this year after Isabelle Silbery and her husband Alex Richards announced they’re expecting a baby girl! “There will be three women on the couch again,” Isabelle, 38, tells Woman’s Day, adding that her co-stars, mum Kerry and grandmother Emmie, are elated there’ll be another strong female in the Silbery clan. “Mum is so excited I’m having a girl. She always told me, 'It’s up to you to have another woman in the family,’" she adds. Upon the news that grandma Emmie, 94, had to step away from the show earlier this year due to her battle with dementia, Izzy says there’s been a silver lining to the heartbreaking diagnosis in this case. “Every time…

Sunrise star Edwina Bartholomew has shocked fans after revealing that her husband of five years Neil Varcoe has moved out of the family home in order to chase his dreams. The presenter, 39, took to social media to announce that following his departure from Twitter last year, Neil will be working on their beloved 1890 farm Warramba in the Capertree Valley, as well as managing the pair’s new hotel reno project The Victoria in Carcoar. However, with Eddy’s Sunrise commitments keeping her in Sydney, they will attempt to go long-distance, with the TV star and their two children, Molly, three, and Tom, one, set to stay in the city for the week, before embarking on the three-hour drive back to Dad for the weekends. “We will miss him during the…

Lisa Wilkinson may never return to TV after Seven’s bombshell interview with Bruce Lehrmann, a top TV insider tells Woman’s Day. “Lisa now faces an uphill battle in carving out the next phase of her career,” says TV commentator Rob McKnight. “The biggest interview of her life [with Brittany Higgins] was supposed to enhance her credibility, but it’s turned out to be a poison chalice. “I don’t believe there is a TV career in Lisa’s future and I really can’t work out where she can go from here,” he adds. Lisa’s role in the case of Bruce Lehrmann – where her TV WEEK Logies speech caused the case to be delayed – continues to divide Australia, with many demanding the 63-year-old hand back her TV WEEK Silver Logie award for…

Celebrity news catty co-stars Kim Cattrall once claimed “it would never happen”. And Just Like That… producers moved heaven and earth – and padded out her pay cheque – in order to get the actress back on board as saucy Samantha Jones for season two of the Sex And The City reboot. According to an on-set source, the 66-year-old star only signed on after bosses agreed to her non-negotiable demands. LAYING DOWN THE LAW “Kim had two stipulations – one, that she would not act with any of the other girls, and two, she did not want to see Michael Patrick King,” says a source of the series’ showrunner, who reportedly sided with Kim’s co-star and nemesis Sarah Jessica Parker, 58, following their well-publicised feud.

Be well with Woman's Day YOUR ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BEING THE BEST YOU Regardless of your own reason for wanting to shed a few kilos, losing weight can be hard. It can be frustrating not to see solid results when you've been trying to do all the right things, especially if those particular methods have worked for you in the past. Dietitian Susie Burrell says that this can be an especially common scenario as women reach their 40s and 50s. "We’ve often become less active, we’re busy, we’re in our prime mum years, in our prime work years, we’re sitting more and we’re commuting a lot,” she explains. “So there’s a lot of pressure in terms of being able to maintain a calorie balance, while your metabolism is not as…

Did you get in too late to plant winter annuals for a pop of cold-weather colour? Don’t panic! You can still add serious impact with potted colour - established plants that are sold when they’re already in bloom. These beauties won’t just be around for a short show either. Keep them well fed with a liquid fertiliser and supplemented with a seaweed tonic for months of beautiful blooms. A pro tip is to gently pinch out all of the flowers as they wilt to encourage new ones.…

1 Strong start Ditched the acrylics or gels for good? Your natural nails may well feel weak or brittle, so one of the best ways to keep them in tip-top condition is to steer clear of acetone. Tracey Winder, national trainer at Mavala, explains, “Acetone is the most efficient ingredient to remove nail polish swiftly and efficiently. However, it can be especially drying on nails, so limit exposure or opt for a non-acetone version.” Instead, use an acetone-free formula and regularly use a strengthening polish. 2 Cuticle care The pandemic made us up our hand-washing game, but our constant use of sanitiser means we’re stripping the oils from our skin and nails. To combat this, try applying cuticle oils and serums to strengthen them. Tracey says, “Keep cuticles hydrated with…

1 CHARLES IS IN A RACE AGAINST TIME! Robert tells Woman’s Day that the King is “acutely aware of his age and that while his mother had the longest reign, his is probably going to be the shortest. Not that there’s anything wrong with him but time is ticking.” 2 DON'T EXPECT AN ABDICATION “This is a lifetime dedication,” says Robert. “Of course there will be conversations and negotiations with William and Kate as he gets older, like there were with the Queen, and responsibilities to pass on. But the buck stops with Charles.” 3 A SPECIAL GIFT His Majesty was thrilled when Charlotte Elizabeth Diana of Cambridge was named as an homage to him along with the Queen and her late grandmother Diana. “Charles could not stop talking about…

Royal news The royal family were said to be on “tenterhooks” as Prince Harry took to the stand last week in his legal battle against the UK press over alleged phone hacking. But according to royal insiders, it was the Prince and Princess of Wales who were feeling the most on edge as Harry, 38, dropped bombshell after bombshell during the courtroom showdown. “They’re in completely uncharted waters here and have no idea what to expect, with some questioning whether William and Kate could even be summoned,” says our source. “William could easily be a key witness in some of these incidents and he could, in theory, be called upon to clarify some of the details.” The bombshells Harry has been spilling have, up until now, been strictly confined to…

TV update It's likely there were more than a few people waking up with sore heads last week after the Sunrise crew farewelled their beloved leader David Koch by throwing the party to end all parties! “Everyone was desperate to show Kochie just how much he means to them by celebrating his incredible 20 years at the network,” an insider spills to Woman’s Day. "Kochie was adamant he didn't want it to be anything too over the top or fussy, but you can bet everyone from the cleaners to the talent and management were invited - he had time for everyone and they all wanted to say a proper goodbye.” While details of the festivities were kept under lock and key right up until the final hour, Woman’s Day hears…

Celebrity news HOT OFF THE PRESS The claws are out! Tensions were running high at Australia Zoo when Russell Crowe's girlfriend Britney Theriot came face-to-face with his longtime friend - and rumoured one-time fling - Terri Irwin. Rusty and his band The Gentlemen Barbers played a show at the Queensland tourist destination, where the frostiness between the ladies was evident - and written all over 32-yearold Britney’s stony face! “It did look like Britney had said some sharp words to Terri because things did appear strained when Russell wasn’t looking," says an onlooker. "Britney's aware of all the rumours about Terri and Russell, so she’ll already be on high alert for any funny business.” According to the insider, Russell, 59, “treats Terri like a queen” but everyone suspects Britney’s had to…

She's already shaken him off! Taylor Swift and British rocker Matty Healy have split after just a month of dating. While sources insist things were never serious between the 33-year-old singer and the 1975 frontman, others suggest Taylor could've been put off the romance after backlash from her fans who didn't approve of Matty's controversial past behaviour. “She had fun with him, but it was always casual,” insists an insider. According to another source, the Karma singer - who’s currently on her Eras world tour - was simply “sowing her oats” with Matty, 34, after her break-up from her boyfriend of six years, actor Joe Alwyn in April. “Taylor's friends want what's best for her and aren't shocked that their romance fizzled out since she recently got out of a…

The Living Room co-host Barry Du Bois could be facing six months behind bars after being caught driving with a suspended licence. The 62-year-old, who is also battling blood cancer, was travelling around Sydney’s Bondi on May 17 when he was busted driving while his licence was suspended, police allege. And while this is said to be the first driving offence for the father-of-two, NSW traffic laws state the charge can mean up to six months in jail if convicted. The TV presenter fronted Waverley Local Court last week, but he has yet to enter a plea. The news comes as Baz continues to battle cancer that re-emerged after a decade-long battle in 2017. Earlier this year, he said he was determined to fight the disease for his family.…

In a sneak peek from the new season, Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) is shown reaching out to former flame Aidan Shaw (John Corbett) in an email. “Hey Stranger… Remember me?” she writes. “If this is still your email, it’s me – Carrie.

So, how ya doing?” And it seems she gets a positive response, with the pair later shown enjoying a dinner date. “Everybody loves it. Everybody’s excited about it. Storywise, it’s the right thing,” says an on-set insider of the rebooted romance.…

Throughout Kathleen’s fight for freedom, her legal team have compared her case to that of Lindy Chamberlain’s. Lindy was also wrongly convicted of killing her baby daughter Azaria in 1980 and imprisoned before evidence showed she was innocent. And like Kathleen, Lindy was publicly criticised for the way she acted and grieved. Despite being freed, it wasn’t until 2012 that the coroner formally declared that Azaria had been snatched and killed by a dingo. Unsurprisingly, Kathleen has reportedly often considered writing to Lindy, 75, while in prison, and now a source close to her tells Woman’s Day she is likely to reach out in the coming weeks. “They haven’t spoken yet, but Kathleen believes Lindy might have some advice for her,” says an insider. It’s likely that the issue of…

Throughout Kathleen’s decades-long fight for freedom, one person has been steadfast in believing she is guilty – her ex-husband Craig Folbigg. “He is frustrated and disappointed he has to endure yet another chapter,” his solicitor Danny Eid said last week. “This is a man people say will heal over time. But with all this time the wounds continue to bleed for him.” Craig’s testimony proved crucial during the 2003 trial as he described the “terrifying growl” Kathleen would produce when she became frustrated with the children. In a letter she wrote while in prison, Kathleen said she believed Craig betrayed her by handing over her personal diaries, which he’d discovered. “I have already suffered greatly at the hands of Craig and his capability to deliver with his tongue,” Kathleen wrote.…

Real life Australian sporting icon Adam Goodes has revealed his one regret in life following the shock death of his beloved mother last year. Adam, 43, spoke about the moment he realised the trauma his late mum Lisa Sansbury had gone through as part of the Stolen Generation in a rare, new interview. “I like to live my life with no regrets,” Adam told English football star Rio Ferdinand on his Get Real With Rio series. “Unfortunately, she lived a really tough life… she was taken away when she was five and put into a white family like a lot of her siblings were and she didn’t know at the time that she was one of 10 [children], never to reconnect with her mother and father again. “As a father……
