Love her or loathe her, there’s no denying Gwyneth Paltrow has been one of the most discussed women in Hollywood over the past three decades. And now, her life is getting the tell-all treatment, courtesy of esteemed celebrity biographer Amy Odell – yes, the author behind that Anna Wintour tome. We take a look at the biggest bombshells to come out of the book so far. Check out all the juicy details, including what was really behind her splits with Ben Affleck and Brad Pitt, on page 16. Speaking of scandals, for a royal family, Norway’s House of Glücksburg comes with its fair share – almost enough to make Prince Harry and Meghan’s lives look drama-free! Senior Writer Kylie Walters delves into all the intrigue on page 30. If that…

who’s news Charli XCX traded her neon green Brat summer uniform for pearly white as she walked down the aisle to say “I do” to her beau, George Daniel, on July 19. The pair held a low-key ceremony at Hackney Town Hall, surrounded by 20 of their closest family members and friends, before heading off for an Italian dinner reception, followed by drinks at Ellie’s bar in London. “Charli’s wedding reception was the epitome of Brat,” a source told The Sun. “[She] and George wanted to keep it very cool, so they shunned cars and walked down Hackney High Street to get to Dalla. “The restaurant had closed for them and they had a massive family-style meal with loads of pasta and champagne,” the source shared. “People walking past were…

Australian Olympian Cate Campbell has announced her engagement to partner Adam Kerr, with the proposal coming as “a complete and wonderful surprise”, according to the swimmer’s Instagram caption. “Last Saturday while watching the sun rise at our new local beach, Adam turned and said: ‘Cate, I have a question for you.’ I thought maybe he was going to ask what kind of plants to put in our gardens, what kind of dog we should get or what we should make for dinner. Instead, he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Of course, I said ‘yes’ … (and cried a lot),” she gushed in the post. Campbell also shared a close-up shot of the ring, which boasts a three-stone design. The comments section of the post…

Celebrity S he has brains and beauty, and is bursting with ambition – and Sydney Sweeney isn’t afraid to use her Hollywood connections to branch out. The actress, nominated for dual Supporting Actress Emmy Awards in 2022 for her roles in Euphoria and the first season of The White Lotus, has since become a bankable movie star thanks to her leading roles in films Anyone But You and Immaculate – the former of which she executive produced and the latter she produced. Founding her production company, Fifty-Fifty Films, in 2020 with her now former fiancé, Jonathan Davino, was the first step in the 27-year-old’s plan to diversify her career. “This industry is so fascinating,” she told Empire in May. “There are so many chats, pieces and moves to make, and…

Celebrity Maya Rudolph & Paul Thomas Anderson The two first coupled up in 2001 after Anderson, 55, saw her in a Saturday Night Live sketch and supposedly said, “That’s the girl I’m going to marry.” Twenty-four years and four children later and the two remain unmarried. Rudolph, 53, admitted to The New York Times that after the birth of their first child she felt weird referring to him as her boyfriend so changed it to “husband”. “People know what that means. It means he’s the father of my child, and I live with him, and we are a couple, and we are not going anywhere,” she said. Oprah Winfrey & Stedman Graham Winfrey, 71, and Graham, 74, have been loved-up since 1986. They got engaged in 1992, but, after much…

Scan for more info or visit guestpix.com Carla and her husband, Warwick Groves, have been to around 50 weddings – and, as guests, they saw a pattern emerge after each event. Everyone had snapped a gazillion photos but, because not everybody was connected on the same social media platforms or in the same WhatsApp groups, there was no way to share them all with everyone. Sure, there were always beautiful, professional photos, but Carla says her favourite shot from her own wedding day was taken by a friend on the dance floor. “She printed it for me and I still have it in a frame today. I wouldn’t have it if she hadn’t thought to send it to me,” Carla, now a mum-of-two from Adelaide, tells WHO. The idea of…

A titillating talk that we’re arguably not having enough is how – and how often – we should be checking our breasts. It’s a topic that carries uncomfortable weight, especially when we consider the alarming statistics. According to a 2024 report from the Australian Government Institute of Health and Welfare, roughly 58 Australian women are diagnosed with breast cancer every day. Of those diagnosed, approximately 3300 die each year from the disease. And while breast self-checks might feel like uncharted territory – particularly for those under 40 who generally aren’t eligible for free two-yearly screening mammograms – self-examinations are a vital tool for early detection, prognosis and treatment. Dr Katrina Tiller, chair of breast medicine at the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, shares how to perform a breast check…

There’s something about a fruit defining our summer that we can’t get enough of. In 2023, without logic or reason, we had tomato girls and, suddenly, long somnolent days filled with gingham and sun-warmed tomatoes in southern Italy – real or imagined – became the defining mood. Now, in a changing of the guard, we have the guava – arguably the more eccentric, tropical cousin of the tomato. Part mindset, part aesthetic, the guava girl trend is shaped by a few juicy characteristics, each inspired directly by the fruit itself. Think sunset skin, dewy lips and fruity scents, all topped off with the attitude of a girl who has guava in one hand and soporific heat in the other. While we sit here in the chilly Southern Hemisphere, guava us…

the hit list Samuel Johnson is no stranger to an emergency room. In fact, in 2021, one of the ambulance officers who appears in local docuseries Paramedics – which the Aussie star has narrated since 2018 – was called to the scene of an accident where a car had hit a pedestrian. That pedestrian was Johnson. “He wasn’t filming that day unfortunately!” the former The Secret Life of Us star, 47, jokes to WHO. But while he’s spent plenty of time being a patient, Johnson admits that being on the other side of the situation still looks quite daunting to him. “I’m the guy who would fly or freeze in an emergency,” he says. Following along from the safety of his recording booth, Johnson has watched the group of local…

CURE by Katherine Brabon Vera and Thea are a mother and daughter who appear to be grappling with the same strange illness. They head to Italy to see where Vera’s family originates from and to chase a promised cure in the form of a man said to be able to heal the condition. However, all is not as it seems. NOT QUITE DEAD YET by Holly Jackson In seven days, Jet Mason will be dead.

who’s news They may have been caught on camera for just a few seconds, but it was more than enough time to completely up-end the lives of the “cheating couple” at the centre of the Coldplay concert scandal. During the band’s Boston show on July 16, a kiss cam projected footage of a couple onto the venue’s screens, only for the pair to quickly spring apart and hide their faces. “Either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy,” singer Chris Martin joked. Within 24 hours, during which footage of the incident went viral, the internet had uncovered the identities of Andy Byron, 50, the married CEO of Astronomer, and the firm’s chief human resources officer, Kristin Cabot, 52, who is also married. What followed were days of memes (see…

You could practically hear the squeals from Dawson’s Creek fans when Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson were spotted together in New York City on July 21. The pair, who played lovers Joey and Pacey on screen while also dating off screen, were seen happily chatting as they made their way down the street – with the camera crew in tow confirming reports that they are working on a new project. “I am so very grateful to be working again with so many of my wonderful friends on this film Happy Hours,” Holmes, 46, shared on Instagram of the movie trilogy, which she has written, and will direct and star in alongside Jackson, 47. “And working with Josh after so many years is a testament to friendship.”…

Andy Sachs has a new man. Patrick Brammall has joined the cast of The Devil Wears Prada 2 as a love interest for Anne Hathaway’s character. The star, 49, replaces Andy’s previous boyfriend, Nate, after it was confirmed Adrian Grenier won’t be back for the sequel. In recent years, the tide has turned against Nate, with him now branded as the “real villain”. Brammall isn’t the first Australian to have caught the leading lady’s eye, though, with fellow Aussie Simon Baker also playing a love interest in the original 2006 hit film. The sequel is filming now in New York City, where Hathaway, 42, has been seen in a swag of stylish outfits. Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci are also reprising their roles, with the movie due out…

Celebrity GYM SLAYER Despite her busy schedule, Gellar is dedicated to her health. “When I’m travelling, I always pack my resistance bands – there’s so much you can do with them,” she explained to Women’s Health. “I had my trainer make a hotel exercise program for me on days when I just can’t make it out to the gym.” Sarah Michelle Gellar certainly delivered a dose of nostalgia when she walked the red carpet for the new I Know What You Did Last Summer movie on July 14. Almost 30 years on from the original slasher film’s premiere, the 48-year-old looked as fit and fabulous as she did in 1997 – with her incredible physique getting people talking. “She looks almost exactly the same!” one fan gushed online. While another…

Real life Richelle “Rocky” Cranston was the fittest she’d ever been. Competing in her fourth season of AFLW, she was training every day, running well and playing great football. So it came as a huge shock in 2019 to discover that, under that tough exterior, things were not as they seemed. “I had some problems with vision in my left eye and went to hospital for tests. I had very high blood pressure – so high it had burst the blood vessels in my eye. They were amazed I hadn’t had a stroke,” Rocky, 35, from Geelong, Victoria, tells WHO. “I’d had my blood pressure taken before, but it was so high the doctors thought their machines were broken or I had white coat syndrome, where I was really scared…

STYLE Double denim, the Canadian tux – call it what you will, but denim on denim is one fashion trend that’s the epitome of timeless. We’ll admit it’s come a long way since Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake’s iconic look at the 2001 American Music Awards to become quite the casual-yet-chic staple. Here’s how to wear the trend without committing a fashion crime… CONTRASTING SHADES While matching sets are a safe way to do denim on denim, don’t ignore the power of playing with contrast.

the hit list double talk If you’ve come to know Malin Akerman and Brittany Snow from their hilarious roles in rom-coms like The Heartbreak Kid and Pitch Perfect respectively, prepare to be shocked while watching Stan’s sultry new thriller The Hunting Wives. The series follows Sophie (played by Snow) as she moves with her husband from Chicago to a small Texas town. But rather than finding a quiet life, Sophie is drawn into a group of reckless rich housewives led by the seductive and dangerous Margo (Akerman). Wine and late nights won’t be Sophie’s biggest problems for long as she gets entangled in a murder investigation and her life quickly spirals out of control. Akerman, 47, and Snow, 39, joined WHO over Zoom to unpack the thrill of stepping into…

When we speak to Hailey Pinto in the weeks leading up to the TV Week Logie Awards, the actress, 24, admits that she hasn’t locked down an outfit to wear to Australian television’s night of nights. “I need to get cracking on it,” she tells WHO with a laugh. While Pinto hit the red carpet at last year’s Logies less than a week after her debut on Home and Away, this year’s event marks her first time in contention for an award, specifically, the Graham Kennedy Award for Most Popular New Talent. Receiving the nod, Pinto says, has allowed her to sit back and take stock of what she’s achieved since bursting onto the Summer Bay scene less than 12 months ago. “Because Home and Away is such a fast-moving…

Malcolm-Jamal Warner, best known for his role as Theo Huxtable in The Cosby Show, has sadly died at age 54. The actor was on vacation with his family in Costa Rica when he accidentally drowned while at a beach. Celebrity tributes poured in, including one from Tracee Ellis Ross, who played Warner’s on-screen wife in Reed Between The Lines. “I love you, Malcolm,” Ross wrote on Instagram, paired with pictures of the two. “First I met you as Theo with the rest of the world then you were my first TV husband. My heart is so so sad. What an actor and friend you were: warm, gentle, present, kind, thoughtful, deep, funny, elegant.” Angela Bassett, Warner’s former co-star on 9-1-1, also commemorated the actor, saying on Instagram that “his bright…

Faith Ward has made cheerleading history, with the New Zealand-born, Perth-raised dancer joining the prestigious Dallas Cowboys squad. “Can’t believe I’m actually writing this … I’m officially a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader!” the 22-year-old wrote of joining the troupe, who have seen their popularity skyrocket thanks to Netflix docuseries America’s Sweethearts. One of just six rookies to make it onto this year’s squad, Ward will join 35 others to take to the field for the 2025–26 NFL season. “I’m proud to be the first New Zealand DCC and fourth Aussie to join the team,” she gushed. “So beyond grateful and blessed to turn my biggest dream into a reality.” Ward’s selection hasn’t been without controversy, though, with fans noticing she donned a slicked-back ponytail at training camp and not the bouncy…

Congratulations are in order for The Vampire Diaries actor Paul Wesley and his new fiancée, Natalie Kuckenburg, 25, after they announced their engagement on Instagram. The pair were in Italy when Wesley, 43, romantically popped the question with an oval-shaped diamond ring. The couple have been together since 2022, occasionally sharing snippets of their romance to followers on social media. This will mark Wesley’s third marriage – he was previously wed to Torrey DeVitto and had a three-year union with Ines de Ramon, who is now dating Brad Pitt. He also had a four-year relationship with Aussie actress Phoebe Tonkin before things ended in 2017.…

Celebrity Despite living her life unapologetically in the public eye, Gwyneth Paltrow is still considered a bit of an enigma – until now. Thanks to famed biographer Amy Odell, everything fans have ever wanted to know – or have confirmed or denied – is said to be in the pages of her new book, Gwyneth: The Biography. From Paltrow’s relationships with “The Brads” – former fiancé Brad Pitt and current husband Brad Falchuk – to her turbulent and saucy relationship with Ben Affleck, plus her fallings-out with one-time pals Madonna and Winona Ryder, and, of course, her privileged upbringing (famous friends and fellow nepo babies included), Odell has left no stone unturned. But, unlike the author’s similar tome on magazine maven Anna Wintour, Paltrow reportedly “did not participate” and has…

Celebrity GOING STRONG Asked by Entertainment Tonight in February when he might call it quits, Ford joked, “When you forget my name,” adding that his busy schedule at this point in his career was “stupid”. “I’m a little bit too everywhere for my sensibilities,” he added. He’s one of Hollywood’s most prolific actors, with a résumé spanning almost six decades and close to 90 roles. Yet surprisingly, Harrison Ford hasn’t received the amount of major accolades you might expect. Best known for his work on the silver screen during his illustrious career, he cemented his place in cinematic history with iconic roles such as Han Solo in the original Star Wars saga, Indiana Jones in the action-adventure series of the same name, Dr Richard Kimble in The Fugitive, President James…

Crime THE VICTIMS While playing an arson a investigator who leads a secret double-life as a prolific fire-starter terrorising his neighbourhood, Taron Egerton is disturbingly magnetic. However, the only thing more unsettling than watching the Apple TV+ crime drama Smoke is the shocking true story behind it. John Leonard Orr inspired Egerton’s Dave Gudsen. In the ’80s, the fire captain had a reputation in Southern California for being able to identify the causes of fires and the devices used to start them when no-one else could. In October 1984, he was one of the first on the scene at Ole’s Home Centre in South Pasadena when it went up in flames. The blaze, which killed four people, was quickly ruled an accident by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. Only…

We’ve all got to eat, right? Which makes grocery shopping one of our most important regular expenses. And no, you're not imagining it – inflation has meant our usual trolleys full of food and household items are costing us more than they used to. Here, Emily Stewart, finance reporter and author of Sensible Money, outlines easy ways to stretch our grocery budgets a little further. Don’t worry, it's not all cutting luxuries and living on beans on toast… 1. START WITH UNIT PRICING Most big supermarkets are required to list not just the price, but a standard unit of measurement called unit pricing. That’s why it’s important to check the label for price per 100 grams or price per litre, and use those figures to compare different products. That way,…

When it comes to skincare, we can’t blame anyone for only wanting the best. And yes, this often means forking out upwards of $100 for a serum or taking out a loan to buy a moisturiser that promises to reverse time. However, despite what some might say, you can in fact pick up plenty of scientifically proven products for a fraction of the cost. Here is our round-up of the best finds on shelves right now… BIODERMA CICABIO CRÈME+ WHAT IT’S GOOD FOR: Skin healing We’re forever banging on about the skin’s microbiome, which is why Bioderma’s Cicabio Crème+ will always be a staple in our beauty bags.

the hit list With her new crime novel, Stillwater, hitting stores this week, Tanya Scott admits there are a few things she’d rather police didn’t find in her Google searches. “My browser history is highly incriminating, particularly the research about fighting and guns and money laundering,” she confesses. “But the most interesting facts I learned were from court reports of real criminal trials. In one, a would-be murderer had fashioned a series of firearms using car parts and the tools in his shed. It made me wonder – if he’d had a different start to life, could he have been a famous innovator, a household name?” Stillwater follows Luke, a reformed con hoping for an ordinary life who gets pulled back into the murky criminal underworld. It was inspired by…
