It’s a huge role to take on, and it often comes with great sacrifice. On average, carers in Australia lose $392,500 in earnings by the time they are 67, and $175,000 in superannuation.

Wife, single mother, children’s advocate, feminist, educator, friend. National treasure Noni Hazlehurst cherishes every role life brings her – on stage and off. Regrets, she’s had a few. “Oh hundreds,” chuckles the intensely private actor, director, presenter and broadcaster. “If only I’d known then what I know now. But that’s part of the learning experience. If you make a mistake once, try not to make it twice.” NO HARD FEELINGS “My biggest regret is that I trusted people along the way who weren’t worthy of that trust,” says Noni, who is finally sharing her inspiring story in a candid new memoir, Dropping The Mask. “But I still prefer to go into things open-eyed and open-hearted.” Despite her share of disappointments, the funny, fiercely intelligent Play School veteran tells Woman’s Day…

I guess when it rains, it pours,” says Chelsea, 36, who is now 14 weeks pregnant. “Haydn and I were kept apart, as you know, with The Block for a period of time, so the reunion was lovely,” she adds with a laugh. “It was another Ricky party,” Haydn, 37, chimes in jokingly about his larrikin Block partner. “You’ve got to be well protected when going to one of them.” After a nine-year struggle with IVF, the pair had decided…
