One of my all-time favourite films is The First Wives Club, so when we woke to the news of Diane Keaton’s death, I, like many, was devastated. Although her passing came as a shock to fans – and reportedly friends, too – looking back, there were signs all was not well with the beloved actress. We look back at her career and heartbreaking final days on page 18. Just when you thought Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were finally through with their war of words, new documents have been filed in court that reveal this battle is far from over. On page 14, we look into their latest claims as they continue to clash over their former home and business venture, Château Miraval. Speaking of exes that won’t let go,…

Singer Katy Perry and former Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau have taken their relationship to the next level, with a very public display of affection aboard Perry’s yacht, Caravelle. The couple, who were spotted soaking up the sun off the coast of Santa Barbara, California, on September 29, looked very comfortable in each other’s company as they kissed and cuddled on the top deck of the vessel. At one point, the 53-year-old politician even gave his girlfriend – who celebrates her 41st birthday on October 25 – a squeeze on the behind. Taking to the stage at London’s O2 Arena as part of her Lifetimes Tour on October 13 – the day after the photos began doing the rounds – Perry seemingly addressed her new relationship. “London, England, you’re like…

For Ben Stiller’s latest project, Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost, the 59-year-old got candid about his family life and regrets when raising his children. The documentary takes a peek into his and sister Amy’s childhood with their comedy duo parents, Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara, who lived busy lives as a result of their successful careers. “It totally affected us,” he recently recalled to The Times. “I just remember missing them terribly. And when they would come back, my sister and I would act out Jesus Christ Superstar or something in the lounge [room].” He noted how growing up in those circumstances has also affected his own parenting choices with kids Ella, 23, and Quinlin, 20, who he shares with wife Christine Taylor, 54. “But, then, I probably f--ked…

Their divorce may have been done and dusted last December, but the war between exes Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt continues to play out in court amid their ongoing legal battle over Château Miraval. In new court documents filed on October 6, Jolie revealed that, in the years since they separated, neither she nor the former couple’s six children have spent any time at the French winery the pair once co-owned. Having left Pitt, 61, the family home in Los Angeles and Miraval when filing for divorce, Jolie, 50, hoped, per the court documents, that the decision would “make him calmer in his dealings with me after a difficult and traumatic period”. “To this day, the children and I have never again set foot on the property, given its connection…

Since he stepped down from life as a working royal, Prince Harry’s security arrangements have been a major source of contention. The Duke of Sussex has waged a very public battle with British authorities, trying to get his protection officers reinstated, but without success. Now we know why. During his visit to London in September, Harry had two very close calls with a known stalker. The woman entered a “secure zone” within the Royal Lancaster Hotel on September 8, the same day the prince, 41, was due to attend the WellChild Awards. The Sun reported that she was found hiding in a hotel bathroom muttering “odd comments” about Harry less than half an hour before his arrival. Two days later, she got within metres of the duke as he visited…

Scan to shop or visit rikkadesign.com.au Going on holiday to a different country, you often come across a few products you’ve never seen before. But when Friederike Kuehn travelled from Brisbane to visit her family in Germany in 2021, she was surprised to see one in particular that everyone had there but nobody had back in Australia: phone straps. “Friends, family, everyone had these straps attached to their phones so they were hands-free – and they said they’d had them for years,” Friederike, 42, tells WHO. “I bought one and it was super handy for travelling. It made my phone secure from pickpockets and it was always on hand to take photos.” However, there was one thing she didn’t like: how flimsy the straps were. “Sometimes, it takes a bit…

Not that long ago, ordering a coffee with a niche, plant-based milk would send shock waves among baristas – but these days, dairy-free options are a mainstay in supermarket aisles and cafes. Choosing between these alternative varieties can sometimes feel like picking a favourite food. Do you prefer rice or are you more of a pea person? Does almond make your mornings? Or are you all about the sweet goodness of oats? For those going off taste, the decision may be simple, but for those going for the best plant-based milk for their health, well, that’s where things get complicated. GP and dietician Dr Terri-Lynne South, who is the chair of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) Specific Interest Group in Obesity Management, says that choosing the right…

PICNIC PERFECTION Perhaps the pinnacle of human experience is a spring picnic. Yep, nothing quite rivals the joy of throwing a checkered rug on the grass, tucking into a charcuterie board and having the space and freedom to do a cartwheel, should you wish. And when it comes to makeup? The vibe should be just as fresh and effortless. For a naturally sun-kissed glow, we recommend a cream blush paired with a touch of highlighter on the high points of your face – cheekbones, brow bones and the bridge of your nose to catch the sunlight in all the right ways. The result? Radiant, picnic-perfect skin. SPRING SPRUCE Yes, we know – you might not be seeing anyone in person during your annual spring cleaning marathon, but that doesn’t mean…

MOVIE SPRINGSTEEN: DELIVER ME FROM NOWHERE STARRING: Jeremy Allen White, Jeremy Strong Like any true rock icon, Bruce Springsteen’s journey was defined by personal struggles and challenges. In this highly anticipated biopic from director Scott Cooper, White takes the lead role as the American singer-songwriter, immersing viewers in the complexities of his life during the 1980s.

Set against the backdrop of his gritty personal life, the…

Designer Louis Vuitton is well known around the world for his label’s elegant accessories, but world-renowned fashion illustrator Megan Hess found there was so much more to his story as she put together a stunning pictorial biography of his life and work. “I think what I loved most about his story is the beginning,” Hess tells WHO. “He was literally about 13 years old and living in the countryside of France and really wanted to make his mark in Paris. But he had no money or means of getting there, so he walked. The journey took about two years because he’d stop and work for local tradesman along the way.” It was this journey that saw Vuitton pick up the skills necessary to start the business that would turn into…

Kevin Federline has shared his concerns for ex-wife Britney Spears in a new memoir, claiming the decision to release her from her conservatorship four years ago may have been ill-advised and that he fears the singer’s situation is “racing towards something irreversible”. “It’s become impossible to pretend everything’s OK. From where I sit, the clock is ticking, and we’re getting close to the 11th hour,” The New York Times revealed he has written in You Thought You Knew. “Something bad is going to happen if things don’t change, and my biggest fear is that our sons will be left holding the pieces.” The dancer-turned-DJ, 47, shares two kids – Sean Preston, 20, and Jayden James, 19 – with Spears. He alleges in the tome that his sons have claimed they…

Harry Styles and Zoë Kravitz’s love story is heading in a golden direction. According to The Sun, the actress, 36, will reportedly be moving into the former One Direction singer’s London home while she’s in the city to film an upcoming movie. “They’ve had an amazing summer together and things are only getting more serious between them,” a source told the publication. “Harry and Zoë have a real connection – this is love. It’s a real honeymoon period and they’re barely apart.” The two first sent the rumour mill churning in August when they were spotted walking around Rome while Kravitz clung to Styles’ arm. Since then, they’ve also been seen walking together through the streets of New York City, Berlin and London while looking cosily loved-up. “He’s been spending…

“I find the experience of being part of something I don’t believe in soul-crushing” After graduating from Yale with a degree in English, Allison Williams, then 22, took a class in auditioning. “My first audition after that class was for the Untitled Lena Dunham Project at HBO,” the actress shared on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast in June, adding that she thought, “‘Obviously I’m not going to get this part, it’s an HBO show, but I’m going to use this to practise my new audition skills.’” She did, in fact, get it – and for six seasons, from 2012 to 2017, Williams played outwardly confident and often cringeworthy Marnie Michaels in Girls. The landmark series became a cultural touchstone and a launching pad for its young cast. Striking…

When Samantha Armytage stepped out onto the TV Week Logies red carpet in August with Australia’s first Golden Bachelor, Barry “Bear” Myrden, whispers of an off-screen romance quickly ran rampant. But, ever the professional, the 49-year-old was quick to shut them down. “Well, you can’t host the show and then steal the Golden Bachelor. Hello! That wouldn’t be much fun, would it?” Armytage quipped on Nova’s The Chrissie Swan Show. Still, when WHO chats with the Sunrise alum ahead of the debut local season of the show, it’s obvious she’s a fan of the silver fox who’s set to steal hearts. “Bear is a wonderful inaugural Golden Bachelor for Australia. He’s a kind, decent and handsome man,” she gushes. After two seasons hosting Farmer Wants a Wife, Armytage is well-versed…

In a new episode of their podcast, Amy & T.J., former Good Morning America hosts Amy Robach andT.J. Holmes have declared they are“no longer girlfriend-boyfriend”, three years after the then-married stars’affair was made public. “We are sharing with all of you that we are engaged and we’ve been engaged for just about a month now,” Robach, 52, told listeners. Holmes, 48, then quipped,“We wanted to let you all know before anybody else was able to – we’ve learned that lesson, I guess, in the past about our relationship.” The pair were fired from their high-profile breakfast show in 2022 following the network’s investigation into rumours of their extramarital relationship.

Following the recent news of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s divorce after 19 years together, the comments of disbelief circulating online came thick and fast. “This is the post I never wanted to see,” wrote one social media user, while another asked, “Is love even real?” Anyone who spends too much time on the internet will tell you this wouldn’t be the first time a celebrity break-up has left fans questioning the validity of true love.

TEENS & EARLY TWENTIES According to Nikola and Lolli, those in their late teens and early twenties should reach for devices that aid consistent skincare habits and put down anything that’s too high-tech, especially if they have acne-prone skin. STICK TO: • Ice rollers to calm inflammation and reduce puffiness • Jade or stainless-steel rollers to de-puff and encourage lymphatic drainage for tired, stressed skin • Gua shas, which are safe, but should be used gently and only to encourage circulation MID TWENTIES & THIRTIES As collagen production naturally slows by the time you hit your mid-twenties, Nikola and Lolli recommend incorporating more of those high-tech devices while still reaping the benefits of the humble gua sha and ice roller. STICK TO: • LED masks that penetrate the skin to…
