Innholdsfortegnelse for Issue 39, 2023 i Woman's Day

It’s been another great week here at Woman’s Day HQ with lots happening in the worlds of our favourite local, Hollywood and royal stars. Starting off with a very happy Prince Harry stepping out for the Invictus Games (see all the fun snaps on pages 12-13). Whether you love him or loathe him, you have to admit it’s nice seeing him being his cheeky self again. This week, we’re also throwing our support behind grassroots sport and introducing you to Australia’s next generation of basketball stars on page 36, while also celebrating some of our local heroes making a difference in their communities (p52). I hope you enjoy the issue as much as I enjoyed putting it together for you. For now, I’m off to look after another baby of…

What a good sport! Giving impassioned speeches, chatting with the athletes, taking photographs with fans and cheering on the competitors, a charming and confident Prince Harry looked truly in his element at the 6th Invictus Games in Dusseldorf. Clearly revelling in the company, Harry seemed at ease as he spoke animatedly with the French mascot and the crowds enjoying the games, smiling as he put his arms around groups of schoolchildren. In one particularly enthusiastic display, Harry even gave athlete Davey Martinez a big smooch on the head as he handed him a gold medal after the US won the wheelchair rugby final. And at a powerlifting contest, the royal wasn’t afraid to get tactile with a Canadian fan, even tugging playfully on his long beard! ‘The Invictus Games is…

Hollywood star Al Pacino surprised everyone earlier this year with the news that he and girlfriend Noor Alfallah, 29, were expecting, with little Roman arriving in June. Bizarrely, Noor has now asked Al, 83, to sign paperwork agreeing to be the father of Roman while assigning her full physical custody. With the process all but ensuring Al can be expected to provide child support, he has enlisted an attorney to help with any legal hurdles that may ensue. According to one source, however, the pair are still dating! “Al and Noor have mutually reached agreements regarding their child,” a representative has maintained.…

Beleaguered Aussie actor Vince Colosimo has turned to his former partner Diana Glenn for support as he tries to get his life back on track. Dressed in a beanie and tracksuit, the Underbelly star, 56, appeared to be using Diana’s car to help move some pieces of carpet to an undisclosed location. Vince, who admitted to being addicted to crystal meth for more than a decade, during which time he racked up more than $60,000 in unpaid traffic fines, is said to be trying to rebuild past relationships in an effort to mend ways with Lucia, 21, his daughter with actress Jane Hall, 52, and Massimo, nine, the son he shares with Diana, 49. “Vince has been forced to face his demons and he understands the impact this has had…

Holding hands and kissing as they finished up a romantic night out in New York, Justin Theroux and his beautiful brunette date looked to be swept up in an exciting new romance. But seeing pictures of the hands-on outing is bound to crush Justin’s ex-wife Jennifer Aniston, who just weeks ago was said to be hopeful of a possible reunion with the actor. Justin, 52, is clearly ready to tell the world about his romance with young actress Nicole Brydon Bloom, 29, with the pair laughing and kissing as they left a night of dining at Altro Paradiso restaurant.

Tanya + Vito 2.0 Victorian police were forced to step in and investigate after The Block’s 2021 villains Tanya and Vito were targeted with threatening letters. Now, the growing online campaign against one of this year’s most controversial couples, Leah and Ash, has insiders fearing history could be about to repeat itself. The parents-of-three may find themselves needing police assistance too as trolls start making violent threats against them, some of which are so vicious that Woman’s Day cannot publish them. “I have never wished so many horrible things upon another human before,” one particularly nasty comment read, while others labelled them “catty” and “manipulative”. “Leah and Ash are hard to watch... they’re perfect villains,” one enraged viewer wrote in the thread. Another added, “It’s embarrassing to watch and I…

Drew Rhoden, who has spina bifida, has been playing wheelchair basketball with the Suncoast Spinners since he was five years old. “I’ve made lots of friends at the club. I love it,” Drew, nine, tells Woman’s Day. The Sunshine Coast club, which is run by Australian Paralympic dual champion Bridie Kean, enables disabled and able-bodied athletes to play wheelchair basketball and rugby. Drew’s mum Kelly shares how she loves watching her son zip about the court with his friends. “I’m so proud of Drew – he trains hard, he plays hard and he doesn’t let his disability get in the way – he’s a little superstar,” says Kelly, 40. They discovered the program through the Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus (SBH) association and now the whole family is involved. “Drew’s twin…

Master a massage A gentle facial massage can stimulate blood flow and activate the lymphatic drainage system to help get rid of excess fluid and toxins. The results? A glowing complexion and depuffed skin. Start by massaging your face in gentle circular upward and outward motions to help lift and sculpt the skin. While a massage can be done at any time, our face tends to be puffiest in the morning, so it’s best to add it to your AM routine. Choose the right oil For a smooth massage, a facial oil or serum will help you sculpt and contour with ease. When deciding on a product, it’s best to opt for a formula containing actives targeted to your skin type and concerns. If you have dry skin, try 1…

Living separate lives Say it isn’t so! Keen-eyed fans have noted it’s been a while since former Home And Away co-stars James Stewart and Sarah Roberts have been spotted together. And they’ve both avoided sharing images of each other on their social media since the start of the year. The pair, who have been married for four years, have dodged split rumours since late 2022, maintaining all is well, but some recent events have added fuel to the fire. Most recently, the pair were photographed separately on the red carpet at the opening of the musical Wicked in Sydney, with James accompanied by his daughter Scout, 11.…

Could Prince Christian’s rumoured girlfriend Princess Maria Chiara di Borbone be angling for her own reality show?

Jen won’t be lonely for long if newly single Joe Manganiello has anything to say about it! Insiders say the actor, who is fresh from his split from wife Sofia Vergara, is keen to ask Jen out on a date and see if they’re a good match romantically. “Everyone’s been telling Jen to go on a date with Joe,” says a source. “Their teams are in touch about having a private lunch as soon as his divorce case settles. Jen’s fully aware that Sofia’s good friends with Reese [Witherspoon] and she doesn’t want to cause any problems with her circle.

Judy Nunn is not one to believe in ghosts, and you won’t find her dusting off the ouija board, but she admits to often “feeling the spirit” of her late and cherished sibling around her. “My brother Rob died in 2018. We were very close. His downward health spiral began a few years earlier, after he suffered a fall. He was about to turn 76 when he passed. He was my hero,” explains the much-loved actor-turnedbestselling author in a rare, pensive moment. “Rob was an exceptional person. I was in awe of him. He was the first professional environmentalist in Western Australia, worked as a zoologist and geologist, and possessed a great knowledge of Indigenous anthropology.” FAMILY LIFE “He was hugely credentialed and was always happy to assist with research…

Stars apologise to victims After a week from hell where their loyalty to convicted rapist friend Danny Masterson caused a furious backlash in Hollywood, insiders say Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis’ already delicate eight-year marriage is hanging by a thread. The married couple wrote letters of support to an LA judge after Masterson, 47, was found guilty in May of raping two women in 2003 but before he was handed his 30-year sentence on September 7. “Mila blames Ashton, as she was against getting involved in Danny’s case in the first place, and it’s turned into the worst possible scenario,” an insider tells Woman’s Day. “They’ve got the spotlight on them for all the worst reasons and there doesn’t appear to be a way out of it.” In the gushing…

No one saw it coming He’s only been in the Sunrise hot seat for four months, but notoriously private Matt Shirvington is slowly opening up to his fans when it comes to his personal life. And last week, viewers – and co-host Natalie Barr – were in shock after he revealed he’s been dealing with a secret health issue. Matt, 44, was speaking to a paramedic on the show for a segment about asthmatics when he shared that he has been diagnosed with the chronic condition himself. “I’ve got sports-induced asthma, so when I exercise it gets worse. Especially in the cold,” Matt said. “Go and get tested for that.” Sports asthma is a long-term condition that can cause shortness of breath, coughing and wheezing during and after exercise. Prior…

It’s a battle of the bands, with two former Beatles having beef with Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger – and it’s all because of Dolly Parton! With the 9 To 5 singer set to release an album of collaborations titled Rockstar later this year, she has gathered a list of rock royalty to duet with, including the Fab Four’s Paul McCartney, 81, and Ringo Starr, 83. But one icon who hasn’t joined in is Mick, 80, and the Beatles boys aren’t happy. “Paul and Ringo think it’s pretty shabby of Mick to turn Dolly down – she’s a living legend who deserves way more respect,” someone close to the project reveals. Dolly, 77, is trying to keep the peace despite being upset by the snub. “Mick wanted something new and…

This week on The Aging Project podcast, I had a profound conversation with Sergey Young, an investor shaping the future of aging. Sergey’s vision is clear – aging doesn’t mean growing old, it’s about growing young. I just love that idea. Sergey’s goal is to make longevity accessible for all, believing aging accelerates after 40 or 45. He gets his medical tests done on his birthday, a practice I’ve adopted. He aims to impact 8 million lives through longevity and mindset change. His Longevity Vision Fund has invested more than $100 million in groundbreaking technologies. Mindset plays a pivotal role in Sergey’s approach. He starts each day with a powerful mantra, “I want to live to 200 healthy and happy years in a body of a 25-year-old man.” He firmly…
