Madeleine McCann’s disappearance has captivated the world for two decades. Now, as the prime suspect nears release from prison, time’s running out for investigators to uncover what happened to the British toddler. We take a look at the latest developments in the case (page 46). Meanwhile, the Los Angeles riots have been grabbing headlines after Australian journalist Lauren Tomasi was shot with a rubber bullet by a police officer (page 16). In happier news, the team behind Aussie play The Picture of Dorian Grey – which started at Sydney Theatre Company and has taken Broadway by storm – scored two Tony Awards and a lovely acceptance speech from star Sarah Snook (page 18). Congrats! Take a look at our features on Vanessa Kirby (page 24) and Aaron Taylor-Johnson (page 34),…

Glen Powell’s ex-girlfriend Gigi Paris has broken her silence on her break-up from the Top Gun: Maverick actor. The 2023 split was highly publicised as Powell, 36, was embroiled in a dating rumour scandal at the time after getting very flirty in public with his Anyone But You co-star Sydney Sweeney. Although the so-called romance between Sweeney and Powell has since been debunked as a publicity stunt, the 32-year-old model has admitted it was still the catalyst for the end of her relationship. “I had two options,” she said of the rumours while on the Too Much podcast. “I could either pretend like I was going along with everything and have everyone wonder, like, ‘Are they hooking up? Are they not hooking up? Is she OK with this? What the…

It’s no secret Kim Kardashian, 44, likes to splash her money around – and when it comes to making sure her kids are well looked after, there’s seemingly no expense spared. Speaking with The Sun, a source has revealed the famous mum-of-four allegedly spends upwards of $150,000 annually on each of her nannies. That’s nannies, plural. The source said that around 10 caretakers, both male and female, are involved in the care of her children while the business mogul and recent law graduate deals with her busy schedule. It’s claimed that each of her kids – North, 11, Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6 – have their own nanny assigned to them that aligns with their needs and personality, and that Kim wants them “all to have their own…

Since wrapping upThe Eras Tour late last year, Taylor Swift has been soaking up some downtime with beau Travis Kelce – who is also relishing some rest and relaxation in the NRL’s off-season. From casual date nights in New York to lying low at the $31 million Boca Raton mansion the sporting star is currently renting – and where the singer is said to also be residing – the couple, both 35, have remained largely out of the public eye in recent months. However, the pair made sure to put in an appearance at a recent family wedding – a barn-style affair to celebrate the nuptials of Kelce’s cousin Tanner Corum in Nashville. Fellow attendees reported Swift and Kelce appeared loved-up, with a video circulating of the pair dancing in…

When rumours emerged that Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin had split recently, ending their nearly eight-year, on-off relationship, insiders insisted it was for good. “It feels final this time,” one source told People magazine. However, fans were left questioning whether the couple are, in fact, over for good, after the singer, 48, gave a shoutout to his supposed ex, 35, while on stage recently. Closing out one of his band Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres world tour shows in Las Vegas on June 7, Martin urged fans to support the actress’ film Materialists, which is in cinemas now. “Thank you so much, everybody. Be kind to yourself. Be kind to each other. Don’t forget to see Materialists. We love you,” the frontman said before exiting the stage, according to a…

Jared Leto has “expressly denied” recent allegations from multiple women accusing the star of sexually inappropriate behaviour. In a new report that was published by Air Mail on June 7, nine women came forward about their experiences with Leto – with some alleging they were just teenagers at the time of their encounters and another claiming the actions of the actor and musician have been “an open secret for a long time”. “He asked how old I was. I said, ‘I’m 16. How old are you?’” Laura La Rue, now 32, said, recounting her first time meeting the celebrity at an event in 2008. The model further claimed she and Leto, who was 36 when they met, struck up an email friendship afterwards, which led to her visiting him at…

Boobs Allen admitted she’s been “buying fancy lingerie that my boobs can actually fit in” and “taking pictures on my phone” since having her breast augmentation. Body Model and actress Fox recently revealed to a fan online that she has had liposuction. Face Kris made headlines last month for her freshly-taut visage, before a rep confirmed she’d had recent work. Boobs Fans were quick to praise Kylie for sharing the details of her breast augmentation on social media. When social media influencer Rachel Leary took to TikTok recently to “respectfully” ask Kylie Jenner exactly what the reality star-turned-beauty mogul had done to her breasts, the last thing she was expecting was a reply. “You have got what I am looking for to have done, in terms of like, a boob…

After a stir was caused when Meghan Markle revealed her family was using their Sussex title as a surname instead of Mountbatten-Windsor, it’s been revealed there was a third option in the mix. Prince Harry is reported to have approached the brother of his late mother, Princess Diana, about legally adopting her maiden name due to an issue with having his children’s passports issued. “He went to his uncle to effectively say: ‘My family are supposed to have the same name and they’re stopping that from happening because the kids are legally HRH, so if push comes to shove, if this blows up and they won’t let the kids be called Sussex, then can we use Spencer as a surname?’” a source told The Guardian. Amid his ongoing rift with…

There are those who use social media to doomscroll – guilty! – and then there are those who lead, inspire and reclaim digital spaces for marginalised communities in powerful ways. For First Nations and Torres Strait Islander Australians, meaningful online representation is long overdue, with persistent gaps in equality and a long road ahead in Australia’s reconciliation journey. Despite these challenges, First Nations fashion and beauty influencers are making their voices heard – both online and in the real world. Below, we’ve highlighted some of our favourite accounts that deserve your attention. Visibility starts with a follow.

TV OVERCOMPENSATING From A Different World to later seasons of Dawson’s Creek to Greek, shows set in colleges have often found their way onto my watch list. I tore through this fun new one from creator and star Benito Skinner, whose character, former high-school jock Benny, struggles to come out. (On Prime Video) TV THE AMAZING RACE I’ve watched this enduring reality series since the very first US season, although my commitment has waned in recent years. I made up for lost time by catching up on Seasons 36 and 37, with the latter proving particularly thrilling due to its compelling cast and the return of classic twists. (On 7plus) TV STRIFE Having worked in media during the period this local production about the launch of an online site for…

When Rarriwuy Hick received the script for SBS comedy series Warm Props, the 34-yearold knew immediately this was a project for her. “I was cracking up laughing,” the Aussie actress tells WHO of reading the script. “But I was also like, ‘I think this is definitely something I’m ready to be a part of.’” Having spent the better part of her career to date in dramatic roles, including a four-year stint in prison drama Wentworth, Hick was keen to let her hair down. “I think a few years ago, I made a conscious decision to not just try different things but put myself out there. Because I was doing quite a lot of drama roles, which I love, but then it was like, ‘I want to give comedy a go…

When did you last laugh until you cried? It would have to be seeing Beetlejuice the Musical. I laughed the whole way through. Eddie Perfect is a brilliant writer and comedian. What was the last book you read? Behind the Mask, which my dear friend Josh Piterman wrote, and also Michelle Obama’s Becoming at the same time. Both great reads! When did you last stay up late? A dinner party held at our house when we had a bolognese-off. Everyone cooked a ragu, then we blindfolded my husband, who decided the winner. Fresh homemade pasta was made and lots of wine and vinyl. The next day was tough! What was the last gift you received? My daughter’s craft she brings home from kinder every week. What was your last TV…

Pop princess Katy Perry, 40, has soaked up her time in Sydney, visiting some of the city’s iconic landmarks. She’s currently Down Under for her global The Lifetimes Tour, which has featured three shows in Sydney, as well as dates in Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide. The ‘Roar’ singer attempted to fly under the radar in dark shades as she enjoyed a day at Luna Park with her daughter, Daisy, 4, with the duo matching in furry bear onesies. Perry made sure to rug up her little one in a coat – bracing for Sydney’s chilly winter – before taking a ride on the park’s roller-coasters and rides. Perry was also spotted scaling the Sydney Harbour Bridge, with a rainbow flag in hand to show her ongoing support for the…

The Cyrus clan is known for making headlines over their tumultuous dealings with each other – and Miley admits it has been a “dark decade” for the family. “Half of us weren’t speaking to each other at one point,” the 32-year-old recently told the Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky podcast. Her parents, Billy Ray and Tish, filed for divorce twice – in 2010 and 2013. They reconciled both times, before calling it quits for good in 2022. Miley admitted to feeling “a lot of loyalty towards her mum” during the divorce, which may have led to more conflict with her dad and some of her five siblings. However, she said that relationships among the various family members are much better today. “We cleaned all that up,” Miley confirmed. “That was a…

Justin Baldoni, 41, has been dealt a blow after a US judge granted a motion on June 9 to dismiss two of his lawsuits against former co-star Blake Lively, 37, and The New York Times. The whopping $600 million countersuit he filed against Blake Lively – as well as her husband, Ryan Reynolds, and publicist Leslie Sloane – has now been dismissed by the judge. The judge also dismissed the $383 million lawsuit Baldoni filed against The New York Times. The first countersuit he brought came following Lively’s lawsuit alleging he sexually harassed her while on the set of the film It Ends with Us. In response, he accused the actress of extortion and defamation. However, Judge Liman ruled Lively’s sexual harassment claims are legally protected, therefore immune from a…

She’s already walked down the aisle three times, so when Van Hunt popped the question to girlfriend Halle Berry, it wasn’t an immediate yes. In fact, the singer, 55, has admitted he’s still waiting on a reponse from the Catwoman star, 58. “I put out the proposal, and it’s still on hold as you can see,” Hunt told Today with Jenna & Friends during a joint interview with his lady love. “It’s just out there floating. You know, maybe you can encourage her.” Berry explained her hesitation, saying, “Well, I’ve been married three times. Van has been married once, and so no, we don’t feel like we have to get married to validate our love in any way. We don’t.” The actress clarified that she still sees a wedding in…

Growing up in Ireland, Sarah Rowe was the sporty kid. She was into athletics and gymnastics, and played soccer, Gaelic football and basketball, training with the boys. As early as primary school, her potential was obvious, especially to her principal, who was also a Gaelic football coach. “He saw something in me I didn’t see yet,” Sarah, 29, tells WHO. He took her under his wing, teaching her that she couldn’t always do things her way and helping her become the player she is today. “He told me I had to be a good runner and be able to kick with both feet, and he got me competing in cross-country, which I really didn’t want to do,” Sarah says with a laugh. “He was hard on me from a young…

Organising a clothing swap lets you score clothes guilt-free, minus the price tag. A good clothing swap can redistribute your loved garments, saving them from landfill and filling gaps in your current wardrobe, all without costing a cent. They are a wonderful way of bringing people together for a communal game of dress-ups. VENUE First, you’ll need to decide on a venue for your clothes swap. How big do you want it to be? Do you want it to be you and your group of friends, or extend it wider? A bigger pool of people means a wider range of clothes to swap. You could host a small group of close friends at home, but bigger groups need more space. When considering options, think about the weather and the comfort…

After years of working in a clinic, nutritionist Sarah Di Lorenzo admits she was “astounded at how much liver disease I was seeing”. “I realised that one in three Australian adults have fatty liver and I felt no-one was talking about it,” she tells WHO. To change that, she has authored The Liver Repair Plan, which is designed to run over four weeks and includes more than 50 delicious and nutrient-dense recipes that will leave you feeling great. “I have so many favourites, but I would have to say that I am in love with my Apple, Cinnamon and Quinoa Porridge, plus, for a beverage, my Spicy Turmeric and Ginger Healing Liver Tonic. This was very hard to choose, by the way!” Di Lorenzo says when asked to pick what…

Brittany Hockley and her long-distance love, Swiss football player Ben Siegrest, tied the knot in Bali this month – and just like the bride herself, the event was spectacular. The couple, who first met via dating app Raya in 2022, exchanged vows at Pandawa Cliff Estate – with Hockley tugging at the heartstrings with a thoughtful touch. “For the last six months, I’ve been learning German. It is so hard. I learnt my vows in German so I could surprise Ben at the end of the aisle,” the 37-year-old told Marie Claire of the nuptials. Meanwhile, Siegrest told the magazine his best man had to learn English in preparation for his own speech. “He couldn’t say hello in English, which are basically the same words,” the groom, 33, said. “When…

Some of the music industry’s greats have paid tribute to revered Beach Boys leader Brian Wilson. The singer-songwriter, who co-created the band in 1961, passed away aged 82. “We realise that we are sharing our grief with the world,” his family said in a statement on June 11. Wilson had been suffering from dementia, with his family placing him under a conservatorship last year when he was unable to care for himself after wife Melinda died. Elton John and John Stamos – who was considered an honourary member of the band after playing with them as far back as the ’80s – took to social media to pay their respects. “He was the biggest influence on my songwriting ever,” John, 78, shared, while Stamos, 61, reflected that he “grew up…

English actor Tom Hiddleston, 44, is preparing to be a father again. Appearing on the red carpet for the film The Life of Chuck, Hiddleston’s partner, actress Zawe Ashton, 40, showed off her baby bump under a stunning blue Emilia Wickstead dress. Ashton confirmed her pregnancy in a sit-down with Vogue while she was getting ready for the red carpet reveal. The publication also referred to Hiddleston as her “husband”, causing speculation as to whether the pair, who are notoriously private about their relationship, have tied the knot in a secret ceremony after getting engaged in 2022. The two met while playing spouses in the 2019 play Betrayal, and welcomed their first child in 2022.…

Proving she really is a one-woman wonder, Sarah Snook took home the Tony Award for Best Leading Actress in a Play for The Picture of Dorian Gray at the ceremony held on June 8. Her win came after the Adelaide-born actress portrayed all 26 of the different characters in the show in which she made her Broadway debut, following a run in London’s West End. “This means so much for a little Australian girl to be here on Broadway,” the 37-year-old said during her acceptance speech. “It’s billed as a one-person show but I don’t feel alone ... This award belongs to the whole team.” MAN OF THE HOUR George Clooney may have missed out on the gong – after being nominated for his first Tony – but the actor,…

THE JUGGLE Munn battled cancer while starting a family. Now, she’s back working. “It’s a dance right now with our schedules,” Munn said of home life with Mulaney. “We make it work simply because we have the mindset that it’s a blessing.” Olivia Munn thought she was done with acting. An aggressive breast cancer diagnosis followed by treatment and then a hysterectomy with a baby in between will do that to you. Add another baby via surrogate to the mix and there’s no denying her life has been turned on its head these past few years. “It’s so crazy to think that I’m sitting here with two amazing babies,” Munn recently told People magazine in an intimate and candid interview. “I’m just so happy and grateful, and I’m really proud…

With time quickly running out until the prime suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, Christian Brueckner, walks from prison a free man, police have launched a desperate attempt to keep him behind bars. Portuguese and German authorities joined forces for several days from June 3 to mount a large search of land near where the 3-year-old was abducted from in 2007. Search teams scoured the scrubland between the Praia da Luz apartment where the McCann family was staying and a series of derelict farmhouses and barns that Brueckner was camping in at the time, hoping to find new clues they could use to keep him behind bars. A well was drained and investigators used chainsaws to clear areas of dense vegetation. “German cops know it is now or never…
