rebuild ourtowns • AU S S I E S L E ND I N G A H A N D•

The practical things you can do to help rebuild Australia, one town at a time There’s not a single Australian who hasn’t had their hearts broken by the horrific bushfires that have swept through our country. The road to rebuild will be long but as a nation we will: brick by brick, fence by fence. Bauer Media launched this campaign to help our neighbours in their time of need.

Each week we will shine a spotlight on a town telling our generous readers how they can help, from the best fundraisers to donate to that specifically benefit the locals, to products they can buy from that town or region that support small businesses there. We’ll highlight the farmers who need fencing supplies, the schools which are short of books and pencils, the yoga school that needs mats or how to plan a getaway to the region when the time is right to bolster their local tourism industry.

The Rebuild Our Towns campaign is centred on the fact that practical help doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Our love and thoughts go out to every person, but actions speak louder than words, so join us to make a difference and help our heartland heal.

SECOND CHANCE AT LOVE

The exes reunite as Ben declares the divorce was ‘the biggest regret of my life’ 8 WWW.OKMAGAZINE.COM.AU

Proving to be the picture perfect family, Ben and Jen were frequently seen enjoying loved-up outings with their three children, Violet, 14, Seraphina, 11, and Samuel, seven, during their 13-year marriage.

B

en Affleck’s latest spate of emotionally charged interviews discussing his ‘painful’ divorce from Jennifer Garner has left the actress ‘very impressed’, insiders say. The exes, both 47, have even sparked reunion talk after Ben confessed his ‘regret’ at divorcing Jen, while also admitting it was his battle with the booze that was the final nail in the coffin for their marriage.

‘I started drinking more and more when my marriage was falling apart. This was 2015, 2016. My drinking, of course, created more marital problems,’ Ben candidly divulged before adding, ‘The biggest regret of my life is this divorce.

The shame is really toxic.’

While the actress has remained friendly with Ben since their split, even driving him to rehab last year, an insider says Jen especially appreciates her ex’s recent efforts and comments. ‘Jen is very impressed that Ben is trying hard to be a better man,’ the source says. ‘That he says he regrets losing her is something she really appreciates hearing.’ Get back together already, guys!

TWEAK ME! Body sculpting is now bigger than ever. Here are our fave toning treatments…

BEST BREASTS WHAT Non-surgical breast lift

EMILY RATAJKOWSKI

Traditionally, the only means of changing your breast shape was through implants, but Dr Josh Wall, medical director of Contour Clinics, says there is a new way.

A non-surgical breast lift ‘is a combination of deep dermal skin tightening with the TempSure radiofrequency platform and platelet-rich plasma injections, commonly known as the vampire breast lift,’ Dr Wall explains.

Essentially, TempSure is a radiofrequency device that penetrates deep into your skin to promote collagen production.

When combined with platelet-rich plasma injections, the treatment restores skin elasticity, helping to lift sagging breasts.

Dr Wall describes the pain at about three out of 10 and ‘results can be seen in two to three months’.

COST $1800 per session (three sessions needed).

VISIT contourclinics.com.au

Kim and the Kardashians have skintightening treatments regularly

FAT BURNER WHAT LIPOcel body sculpting You may have heard of fat reduction devices using cooling technology (CoolSculpting), but LIPOcel is a new machine that uses the magic powers of the heating technology HIFU (High ng Intensity Focused Ultrasound). Accordin to Danielle Smith, co-owner of Elite Bod dy Contouring Australia, this device can target large areas of the body (like yourr stomach, bum, love handles and thighs)) in a single treatment to shift stubborn pockets of subcutaneous fat that is often hard to budge.

‘The fat is heated to 65-75 degrees, causing fat cell death, then disposed of through the body’s lymphatic system over 12 weeks post-treatment,’ she says. ‘This means no strain is placed on the body, and you can expect to see a 20-40 per cent permanent fat reduction each session.’

COST From $998.

VISIT elitebodycontouring.com.au

BUM & TUM WHAT TESLAFormer muscle definer

VERDICT Beauty Editor Elise Wilson

For a more toned tush and flatter JLo-esque abs, the newest muscle toning device is here – and it’s bigger and better than its competitors. The treatment itself consists of six-toeight 30-minute appointments, spread over two weeks, with each capable of running all muscle groups up to 50,000 contractions – the equivalent of 50,000 crunches!

explains, ‘I was strapped to a large toning paddle while lying on my back, and what started as a gentle, tickly buzz quickly became a fist-clenching contraction as the intensity increased.

It doesn’t hurt, but the pulses are nevertheless very vigorous.

‘When the paddle wasn’t giving me crazy contractions, it was tapping and slapping my stomach to break down the fat and disperse any lactic acid, so my muscles wouldn’t ache too much afterwards. Once I got used to the sensation, it became weirdly addictive – and that might be because of all the endorphins my “buzzed” cells released in one session.

‘All in all, I am beyond thrilled with my results from one session. And while I’m still waiting on my sixpack, my tummy is definitely much flatter and more toned, and my core strength is so much stronger. I can see why celebrities are addicted.'

COST From $700 per session.

e know you didn’t ask (but we’re going to tell you anyway), fragrance is a category we should be spending more time exploring. Because while we’re as partial to a signature scent as the next person, we don’t see why said scent must come with a long-term commitment.

In fact, we’re big believers in switching up your fragrance with each new season, new trend or new year in a bid to build a fragrance wardrobe of time capsules that transport you to specific moments and places with a single spritz. And since we’re in a whole new decade, now is the perfect time to refresh your dressing table with something brand new. Here’s what you need to try…

A BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO COMBINING SCENTS FOR INDECISIVE FRAGRANCE FIENDS ‘Layering is the best way to create depth in your scent and enhance longevity on the skin,’ says Céline Roux, fragrance director at Jo Malone London. ‘When two notes are combined, they highlight different elements of each other.’ But which notes work together? ‘Certain notes work really well,’ says Jan Ahlgren, founder of Vilhelm Parfumerie. ‘Citrus and woods, flower with flower, flower with woods and vanilla and woods are all great to mix and layer up.’ And which notes don’t match? ‘Steer clear of mixing citrus and vanilla notes, as most of the time they really clash,’ says Jan. ‘Ouds are also notoriously tricky to combine, as the strong, heady scent can overwhelm lighter notes.’

COMPILED BY ELISE WILSON & HARPERS BAZAAR AU

While we absolutely love a zesty citrus scent in summer, the newest fragrances are throwing in some interesting alternatives to your usual lemon and orange blossom. Think mint, banana and rhubarb as some of the more unusual essences creeping up through the biggest perfume brands worldwide. And if you’re still not sure, trust us – these offerings will change your mind…

You really can change your fragrance as often as you change your mind.

Parisian perfume brand Diptyque has released new reusable perfume stickers that sit on your skin, in addition to perfumed brooches and bracelets. Each comes in three romas with a subtle scent pay-off.

The added bonus? They’re incredibly chic yet subtle enough to slot into your everyday accessory repertoire.

Catherine says to limit snack portion sizes

Is that corner cafe undermining your heallthy eating intentions? Dietittian Catherine Saxelby shares her tips for staying on trrack

SMART SNACKIN Snacks should be small in size and lower in kilojoules, fat, salt and added sugar than mealss.

Your aim is to have a snack that satisfies yourr hunger until the next meal. Try one of these:

5 SNACKS TO KEEP IN YOUR DESK DRAWER 1 Snack packs of almonds, walnuts or unsalted mixed nuts.

2 Small cans of tuna flavoured with chilli, lemon or tomato.

3 Nut bars.

4 A trail-mix pack of mixed nuts, seeds and dried fruit.

5 Fresh fruit such as an apple or banana.

5 SNACKS FOR YOUR WORK FRIDGE 1 A tub of yoghurt.

2 A small avocado.

3 A slice or wedge of cheese.

4 Vegetable or tomato juice.

5 Raisin loaf to toast.

ALESSANDRA AMBROS SIO

HOW TO PICK A HEALTHY SNACK

TIP

‘I love unsalted almonds,’ tells Olivia.

‘They’re so easy to pack in a little Ziploc bag to take with you.’

Not all snacks are completely ‘bad’.

Here are four nutrition numbers hat can help you to classify a th nack as ‘healthy’… sn •L Less than 600 kilojoules per serve.

•L Less than three grams of saturated fat per serve.

•L Less than 200 milligrams of sodium (salt) per serve.

•L Less than 15 grams of sugars per serve.

Plus, if they’re wholegrain or hiigh-fibre or supply important nu utrients such as calcium, iron orr protein, that’s a bonus.

TIME TO DITCH THE DOUGHNUTS? T Two cinnamon doughnuts pile on 20 grams of fat and over 2000 kilojoules, k which is one third of the day’s recommended intake for the average sedentary woman. And most of that fat is industrial fat, the type that clogs arteries and thickens your waistline.

OLIVIA CULPO

This is an edited extract from Nutrition for Life by Catherine Saxelby (Hardie Grant Books, $34.99).

CAFE CHEAT T SHEET •SAY NO TO CROISSANTS or pain au chocolat, and yes to toasted sourdough h or raisin toast with the sspread (butter/ margarine/ricotta/honey/jam) oney/jam) on the side so you can add your own.

•PROTEIN BALLS AND RAW TREATS can be a better choice, thanks to their small size. And they’re sweet enough to satisfy.

•OPT FOR NUT BREADS AND BANANA BREADS, but ask for no spread. Often these breads – which are more like cakes – are tasty enough without added butter.

•TRY A MUESLI SLICE instead of a slice of cake. A good source of wholegrains and dried fruit, these slices fill you up and have some nutritional benefits – but be careful, there are hidden sugars added to ‘glue’ the grains and nuts together.

•TRY A WHOLEMEAL MUFFIN. They have a slightly higher fibre content, but you still need to watch portion sizes. Fruit muffins such as blueberry or raspberry muffins are a healthier choice than the chocolate ones.

•NOT REALLY HUNGRY, BUT CRAVING SOMETHING SWEET? Try a sweeter coffee like a caramel or hazelnut blend, which has fewer kilojoules than a big muffin.

•DON’T FALL FOR THE COFFEE AND CAKE DISCOUNT! It looks like a good deal – $5 for a coffee and a slice of cake when the coffee alone costs $4 – but remember, you’re not saving money. If you only wanted a coffee, then you’re spending more than you intended and that cake is going straight to your hips.

Your four-minute

BODY BLAST G Want to get fit fast? Tabata is the workout you need now!

one are the days when we had to slog away for 60 minutes a day to get results. Scientifically devised for the Japanese Olympic speed skating team no less, Tabata bata is now big news around the world d – and with four-minute sessions, we can totally see why. Exercise scientist Brooke Turner from Balance Fitness ‘Consistency is and Nutrition key,’ Brooke gives us the advises lowdown…

WHAT IS TABATA TRAINING? Tabata training was discovered by a Japanese scientist, Dr Izumi Tabata, and a team of researchers from the National Institute of Fitness and Sports in Tokyo.

Each exercise in a Tabata workout lasts only four minutes, but at the time it will feel a lot longer! It goes like this: •Work at maximum effort for 20 seconds.

•Rest for 10 seconds (this is one set).

•Complete eight sets (four minutes total).

All up, you’ll complete eight sets of each exercise and you can do almost any exercise that you wish – using body weight or equipment.

The Tabata training method works due to its high-intensity nature – it falls into the HIIT workout category. That means it can help you burn more calories in a shorter period while also providing an 46 WWW.OKMAGAZINE.COM.AU

‘after-burn’ effect known as EPOC (excessive post-exercise oxygen consumption), meaning you continue to burn energy after the workout is over.

WHAT ARE SOME OF THE BENEFITS?

T Tabata is a great form of exercise for tthose who are time-poor or prefer shorter ssessions at a higher intensity – or if you jjust want to spend more time living and lless time training. It’s good for your mental and emotional wellbeing. It also iimproves athletic performance and g glucose metabolism, acts as an excellent ccatalyst for fat burning, and is the perfect way to shake up your workouts iif you have reached a plateau in your weight-loss or fitness program.

IS FOUR MINUTES ALL YOU NEED? Not necessarily. While eight sets and four minutes of all-out effort may be more than enough for some, if you have time on your hands and want to get in a longer workout, complete a few blocks to take it anywhere from a 12 to 30-minute workout.

At the end of the day, consistency is key. I would recommend incorporating HIIT-style training, such as Tabata, two or three times per week in conjunction with other forms of daily movement and a healthy, balanced diet for maximal results. Find ways to move that are enjoyable and sustainable, then you’re more likely to be successful in your health, aesthetic and performance goals.

HOW CAN I FIND TABATA WORKOUTS?

With a simple Google or hashtag search for Tabata workouts, you’ll have them handy at your fingertips. But it’s also easy to make up your own! This is one of my favourite ways to train when I’m short on time, or don’t have anything planned for my training session. Pretty much any movement or equipment can be used – be it body weight, dumbbells, kettlebells, resistance bands, treadmills, rowers… you name it!

HOW HARD IS IT? Anyone can try Tabata workouts – that is what makes this method of training so great. While it’s high intensity, it doesn’t have to be high impact – which is good news for those who may have a knee or leg injury, or are coming back to exercise following a pregnancy. Tabata is also great if you’re short on time and want to do a quick workout, you neeed d to switch up your routine, or you want to improve endurance and speed.

Whether you’re an elite athlete or recreational warrior, the intensity level at which you work will be relative to your personal fitness level.

TIP

If you’d prefer a longer workout, take a two-minute rest after the first round, then repeat two or three more times.

TRY THIS WORKOUT DO THESE EXERCISES ANYTIME, ANYWHERE!

AIR SQUATS Take your feet a little wider than your hips and turn your toes slightly out.

Keep your chest up and push your hips back and down. Press into your heels and imagine lifting your toes.

Lower your hips to parallel or what’s comfortable, then drive through the heels and glutes to extend back up.

BURPEES From a standing position, squat down with your hands on the floor. Step or jump back into a plank, lowering your knees, hips then chest in one smooth movement onto the floor. Push up through your arms lifting your chest, hips and legs off the floor.

Step or jump both feet to your hands and stand up.

PUSH-UPS CARRIE UNDERWOOD

Start with your hands under your shoulders and bend your elbows to lower your chest towards the floor. Keeping your elbows close to your body, drive through the heels of your hands and push away from the floor to full extension, then repeat.

V-SITS In a seated position, engage your core and slowly lift your legs (knees are bent or straight) to a 45degree angle with your torso. Reach forward as you keep leaning back, maintaining a strong spine.

YOUR NUNCHI! Got a case of foot in mouth? Brush up on your social skills with this ancient Korean art

W

hen it comes to the tricky world of social interactions, have you ever noticed that some people just get it?

They’re the ones who always seem to know exactly what to say even in the most awkward moments, and at dinner parties they’ll top up your wine glass before you’ve even realised it’s empty. They may not realise it, but they probably have excellent nunchi.

Pronounced ‘noon-chi’, it stems from Korean culture and is the art of sensing what the people around you are thinking and feeling in order to create trust and harmony.

This helps to avoid sticky situations, from work to social events and even relationships. Euny Hong, academic and author of The Power of Nunchi: The Korean Secret to Happiness and Success, takes us through how we can practise nunchi and the benefits that come with it.

THE BASICS ‘For beginners, I recommend honing nunchi skills at work before trying it on friends or family,’ says Euny. ‘At your next work meeting, rather than being the loudest voice in the room, observe instead. First things first: who exactly in the room? Is e atmosphere Jennie from Blackpink ht or heavy? mentions oes your boss nunchi in the K-pop hit ok like he has Ddu-Du ad news?

Ddu-Du tudying your ork culture will ive you the nswers to the uestions you idn’t even know ou should be sking. Nunchi eans reading

the situation and understanding that every room and workplace is different.’

Once you get better at reading a room, you can influence and change the mood. If you’re running a meeting, Euny suggests offering bite-size treats at the start – even just some mini chocolates.

‘Say (but don’t yell), “Hi there everyone, I brought [food item],”’ she explains. ‘Make sure you use the word “everyone”, which sets the tone that for as long as you’re in that conference room, you are one organism.’

Ask people to pass the snacks around rather than simply telling everyone to ‘help themselves’.

The passing motion creates connection. ‘It’s a way of making people pay attention to others,’ says Euny. ‘This energy circle you’ve created is a powerful, unifying force that will make everyone cooperate better, be more interested in what everyone has to say, and increase the chance of attaining any goals from that meeting.’

GAME OF NUNCHI ‘Game of Thrones could also be called Game of Nunchi,’ Euny writes. While some characters like Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) begin the TV series with excellent nunchi, others like Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner, pictured) are forced to sharpen their skills to survive.

Having the ability to pick up on moods and behaviours before approaching people will save you – and the other person – from social embarrassment.

‘You can’t make a faux pas if you’ve read the room correctly,’ says Euny. ‘It also aids in reducing your social anxiety – such anxiety is often caused because you are focusing too much on yourself. This can be dissipated at least a little if you focus on plugging into your environment, and on everyone else in the room.’

Nunchi is also great for navigating romantic relationships. ‘People are terrible at expressing their real thoughts [in relationships],’ shares Euny. ‘This is because at tense moments like a fight, they feel vulnerable and worried their other half will take advantage of their weakness. Use your nunchi to sense what is behind their words.

‘If you keep having the same fight over again, it’s almost always because of something someone was afraid to say or didn’t know how to. Do something different. Read between the lines.’

There’s something for everyone with K!’s Patty Rigg’s ultra-luxe hotel hop SAM FROST

52 WWW.OKMAGAZINE.COM.AU

echarging and unwinding were my top priorities when I took a week off from work to visit Vietnam without my hubby and kids. But what I got out of the country’s latest hotspots was so much more than eating, sleeping and relaxing…

Melia Ho Tram offers gorgeous greenery amid an idyllic waterside setting

START HERE

MELIA HO TRAM BEACH RESORT

Just two hours out of Ho Chi Minh City, the shores of Ho Tram have become a go-to retreat for locals – and I can see why at this upscale five-star property.

With a choice of 152 rooms and 61 villas, the hotel is perfect for a romantic getaway or a fun extended family trip – but I’m there for some

Angsana caters to a livelier holiday crowd as well as rest and relaxation

CARLIN STERRITT & ANGIE KENT

Dip in the hot spring, anyone?

The luxury is complete!

R&R, so waste no time booking into YHI Spa for a classic Vietnamese body massage. It proves the perfect start to my holiday and I can feel my stress and jet lag dissolving immediately.

The pampering doesn’t stop there.

Try lunch or a sunset cocktail at Breeza Beach Club. And don’t miss a traditional Vietnamese coffee at Elyxr Cafe with sugar syrup and condensed milk – I made it a daily ritual!

Or if not, there’s the cool pool option as well

NOW GO HERE

ALBA WELLNESS RESORT

Vietnam offers some of the most beautiful and unspoilt waters in the world

My second stop is the Alba Wellness Valley by Fusion, a quick 45-minute drive from Hue airport. Situated in the foothills of the Truong Son mountains, this tranquil resort is famed for its thermal hot springs and authentic Japanese onsen.

After breakfast at Madame Chau restaurant, I head straight for the onsen and spa for a soak and soothe session.

The massages here are to die for! Being relaxed sure works up an appetite, so go to Alba’s onsite farm to refuel with a hotpot meal under the stars. If you’re feeling adventurous, follow it up with a midnight dip in the magma-heated hot springs.

The private bungalows are beautifully designed with a blend of Vietnamese and Japanese architecture – mine comes with an outdoor shower and vegie garden!

There’s also a bike parked outside for cycling around the organic farm and taking in the fresh air of the hot springs.

FINISH HERE

LAGUNA LANG CO

My final destination is a new resort community from the Banyan Tree Group, an hour from Da Nang Airport.

The villas at Laguna Lang Co are breathtaking, with lagoon views, private pools and outdoor showers.

As an indulgence, I spend my final night at neighbouring Angsana Lang Co, only a few minutes’ boat transfer from Banyan Tree. Angsana offers a great selection of outdoor activities for thrillseekers, such as jetskiing and wakeboarding. However, for the chill-seekers there’s a lazy dip in the 300-metre long serpentine pool and a cocktail at the bar also on offer!

I have time for lunch at Moomba, Angsana’s alfresco dining venue, but then sadly have to pack my bags to head home. I’ve honestly never felt so relaxed and rejuvenated.

Fingers crossed the kids survived the week without me!

The resort is situated right by the golden beach…

…but if you don’t want to get salty, the serpentine pool is available

Located just a short train ride from Paris, the landscape is dotted with historic 54 WWW.OKMAGAZINE.COM.AU

Pair your incredible Spanish tapas with the equally flavourful wines of the AndalucÍa region. Fortified sherries are the main star here, so head to the city of Jerez de la Frontera in the south for a taste of history, or try one of the up-and-coming vineyards near Granada for a more creative take on Spanish wines. Don’t miss the opportunity to sample local olive oil, beers and Iberian ham while you’re at it!

Star Style TRAVEL IRINCE, TURKEY

Adorable houses, charming cobbled streets and wonderfully friendly locals make the stunning hilltop town of Şirince an Instagrammer’s dream – the wine expertise is a bonus!

Riesling fans, rejoice – the region is famed for this drop, so make the most of the 124 vineyards and taste as many as you can stomach!

It’s known as the birthplace of fortified wine, and you’ll be in good spirits after a few tastings, followed by adventures through charming narrow laneways and chowing down on incredible cuisine. When you need a break from the booze, explore the historic riverfront city of Coimbra, walk through secluded schist villages, and pair local wine and cheese while watching the sun set in Lisbon.

Nicole & Keith’s

CALIFORNIA COMPOUND When they’re in la la land, the stars bunk at this modern mansion

K

eith Urban and Nicole Kidman are one of the most successful couples in showbiz – and they have the real estate portfolio to prove it!

Aside from maintaining two homes in their native Australia (one in Sydney, the other in Bunya Hill), the spouses of 13 years own three US properties: a Nashville mansion (their primary residence), a New York apartment and this 3977-square-foot Beverly Hills pad.

In 2008, the couple doled out $4.7 million for the five-bedroom, fourbathroom abode in the guard-attended neighbourhood known as Hidden Valley, and since then a slew of A-listers – like Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, Adele and Katy Perry, to name a few – have also moved into the exclusive community.

The actress and country crooner, both 52, have spruced up the place over the last decade, adding a jungle gym and a swing set for their daughters Sunday, 11, and Faith, nine, a slide for the pool, and a chic poolside cabana.

Additional stand-out features include a sun-soake deck, expos concrete walls and a full-floor master suit with dual walk-in closets.

Let’s just say we’d be happy to house-sit when the stars are out of town

IN PERFECT HARMONY

The lovebirds enjoy playing the piano together, and had their daughters record them singing a duet of Keith’s track Female. But they’re yet to officially release a tune together.

FAMILY COMES FIRST

‘What a lovely way to spend an afternoon with my mother and my daughters,’ the Bombshell actress said last Mother’s Day, when three generations gathered at the table for an art project.

HOT TICKET

While throwing a Christmas Eve party, the country crooner put on an impromptu show in the living room, which features built-in shelving – perfect for showcasing his and Nicole’s myriad of awards!

A NEW LEASH ON LIFE

SUPPORT SYSTEM

Though the duo like to maintain their girls’ privacy, Keith shared this pic in 2017 for a special occasion. ‘When my daughters do this… I’ve already won!’ the singer gushed of the kids wishing him luck at an awards show.

‘My first puppy,’ the actress gushed in June, when they added a furry friend – which appears to be a miniature red poodle – to their family. ‘Been waiting my whole life for this!’

The couple has put their royal life firmly in the past as they embark on their new journey in Canada

HARRY & MEGHAN

CUTTING ALL ROYAL TIES

NEWS

ess than two months have passed since Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan announced their plans to step back from their royal engagements and embark on a new life in Canada with their nine-month-old son Archie. And on the surface, all seems well.

But insiders have revealed Harry, 35, and Meghan, 38, have become even more estranged from his family – including his older brother Prince William and grandmother Queen Elizabeth II. ‘Harry’s barely spoken to them,’ one source says. ‘He’s been dodging their calls. Some people close to Meghan and Harry are saying they’re living in their own bubble and don’t want any reminders of the past.’

According to sources, Meghan and Harry are beyond relieved to be free of the constraints of royal life.

‘They’re finally living their lives on their own terms, and that’s given them a whole new purpose and a wonderful sense of liberation and peace,’ says the insider. They’ve been settling into a private seaside compound in the Saanich Inlet area of Vancouver Island with Archie and their dogs while they househunt for permanent digs.

‘Harry and Meghan escaped the chaos back home and are genuinely happy,’ says the source. ‘They’re really enjoying Canada; it’s a completely different world from what they’re used to in London.’

They can go on hikes or pop into the grocery store in town without being harassed. ‘The locals don’t bother them, and they have the freedom to do whatever they want.’

The insider adds that ‘Meghan endured a lot of stress in England’, particularly at the

RUFFLING ROYAL FEATHERS FROM AFAR FIRING ROYAL STAFF

The couple admitted the decision to lay off 15 staffers at their now-defunct Buckingham Palace office had ‘understandably been saddening’, and insiders say it didn’t go over well. ‘It wasn’t easy,’ tells the insider, ‘but they had no choice.’

REJECTING ROYAL INVITES

An insider says Elton John is hosting a fundraiser the day of Princess Beatrice’s wedding on May 29, putting Harry and Meghan’s attendance at the nuptials in question. The pair also reportedly declined to attend Prince Andrew’s recent 60th birthday celebrations.

hands of the media. ‘She’s happy to be away from all of that.’

But they clearly have no plans to retreat into total obscurity. As feared by Harry’s family, the couple will be using Meghan’s Hollywood connections to stay in the mix. ‘They’re in touch with a number of LA power players and are looking forward to hosting dinner parties with the likes of George and Amal Clooney and big-time movie producer Jeffrey Katzenberg,’ says the insider.

They’ve reportedly already begun thinking about searching for a second home in California – in Malibu or Hidden Hills – and the source says Harry’s even looking for an agent. ‘He doesn’t want to become an actor, but he’d love to make documentaries and things like that.’

One thing is for sure – they have no plans to return to the United Kingdom.

‘Right now they’re all about getting Archie settled and adapting to life in North America,’ says the insider. While the Queen obviously hopes the couple 64 WWW.OKMAGAZINE.COM.AU

The insider says Meghan’s Instagram videos from her Vogue UK stint left royal watchers cringing. ‘It shows she thrives on attention,’ says a source of the Duchess, who shared several behind-the-scenes videos with editor Edward Enninful.

The duo hit up an ultra-private JP Morgan summit in Miami on February 6. They reportedly made a whopping $1.5 million for appearing at the event – Harry also gave a small speech – which boasted billionaire guests like Bill Gates.

might have a change of heart – putting a ‘12-month review period’ in place to see how their new agreement plays out over the next year – Harry and Meghan are standing firm.

AS FAR AS A RETURN TO THE ROYAL FAMILY, THEY’RE NOT GOING BACK It’s been reported the Queen, 93, has asked Harry and Meghan to attend the Commonwealth Service at Westminster Abbey on March 9, but there’s no word yet on whether they’ll go. ‘Sure, they’ll visit London for social events and charity initiatives from time to time,’ says the insider, ‘but as far as a return to the royal family, they’re not going back.’

Their recent firing of 15 staffers at Buckingham Palace proves just how determined they are to start over in the States. The decision to shut down their UK office was a shock and rubbed some people the wrong way.

‘Good people have lost their jobs,’ explains the insider. ‘There’s a real sense of outrage. If Harry and Meghan hadn’t turned their backs on the royal household, this wouldn’t have happened.’

Harry does wish some things had gone differently. ‘There’s a sense of sadness that everything played out in such dramatic fashion,’ says the insider. ‘It was never his intention to hurt his family – whom he loves – or the British people.’

But after Her Majesty recently forced the couple to drop plans to use the brand ‘SussexRoyal’, Harry and Meghan are said to have once again been enraged.

Posts on their website suggest the couple are angry at the way the decision was reached and how they’ve been treated compared with other royals.

STAR CONNECTIONS

Harry’s using his Hollywood connections already, enlisting the help of Jon Bon Jovi – along with members of the Invictus Games Choir – to record a special single called Unbroken.

Proceeds from the song will go towards the Invictus Games Foundation.

Their recent statement suggested a blanket ban on the use of the word ‘royal’ was unenforceable. It read, ‘There is not any jurisdiction by The Monarchy or Cabinet Office over the use of the word “royal” overseas.’

Harry’s relationship with Prince William, 37, remains strained, too.

‘They’ve agreed to give each other space and generally only communicate with the occasional text or WhatsApp message,’ the insider reveals. The dad-of-three always makes the first move. ‘But when he calls, Harry often ignores it,’ reveals the source.

Ultimately, Harry had to do what he felt was right for his wife and son. ‘He gets pangs of guilt here and there,’ shares the insider, ‘but he reminds himself that to be a worthy husband and father he has to put Meghan and Archie first.’

‘Seeing how happy the move has made Meghan makes Harry feel very proud. All in all,’ the insider adds, ‘neither he nor Meghan have any regrets whatsoever.’

W

owing in a headturning ‘tuxedo gown’ at the 2019 Oscars before being carried into the Met Gala by six shirtless men, Billy Porter immediately became Tinseltown’s breakout style star.

‘I’ve always been passionate about fashion,’ declares the 50-year-old, who

has quickly become the go-to muse for high-profile designers hoping to bring a sense of fun and flair to their creations.

With many fashion forecasters now clambering on to see his next style move, it’s actually been Billy’s role in the critically acclaimed drama Pose that has helped him earn massive mainstream success. The star has developed a cult-like following thanks to playing Pray Tell in the series, which chronicles New York’s African-American and Latino LGBTQ and gender-nonconforming ballroom culture scene in the ’80s.

After taking on the venture in 2018, Billy quickly earned himself several accolades including a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, making him the first openly gay black man to be nominated – and win – a lead acting category!

While Billy’s success may seem like a fairytale whirlwind, it has, in fact, been a long time coming. His journey to Hollywood’s elite was birthed from a toxic childhood, as well as his struggle to come out while growing up in the strict Pentecostal Church in Pennsylvania.

push he needed to ‘extract’ himself from danger and be his authentic self. ‘I could… see all of these adults with no capacity to do anything to help,’ he divulges, adding that it made him do it himself.

However, given his Christian upbringing, Billy’s coming out journey proved to be another obstacle. The actor had to come out to his mum Cloerinda ‘three times over a 12-year period’.

Now, he reveals, she’s one of his biggest fans!

Billy has since become a passionate activist – using his social platforms to bring awareness to the LGBTQ+ community as well as women’s rights.

While he now serves as inspiration to many, Billy didn’t look up to anyone during his youth and turned to the performing arts for an outlet, where he quickly excelled on Broadway.

‘I found the arts and I found the theatre, a community that embraced me for who I am,’ says the actor, who received a Tony and a Grammy Award for his work in the musical Kinky Boots. Keep shining, Billy!

I FOUND… A COMMUNITY THAT EMBRACED ME FOR WHO I AM

ENTERTAINMENT MIRANDA BISSONNETTE, 26 The cast is separated into apartments and can only connect through a social network called The Circle.

At the end of each ep, two players are deemed influencers and ‘block’ one player, sending them home. No-one was more

stunned than photographer Miranda when she was booted by friend Shubham and love interest Joey, who went on to win. But there are no hard feelings. ‘I ended up finding love and family with all my castmates,’ she tells, playing coy about her romance with Joey. ‘I’ll just say we’ve eaten a lot of food together!’

Confessions from Netflix’s Influencing, catfishing and ranking – cast members spill on what went on as they vied to be most popular on the social media reality competition series Watch The Circle on Netflix 76 WWW.OKMAGAZINE.COM.AU

SEAN TAYLOR, 25 The plus-size contestant went on the show with a mission: ‘I wanted to highlight how larger bodies are treated,’ says Sean, who entered the game using a sexy friend’s photo, but later uploaded her own. ‘I thought catfishing would be the best way to challenge biases and start conversations.’

SEABURN WILLIAMS, 29

Strategic Seaburn had his reasons for playing under the guise of his real-life girlfriend Rebecca. ‘It’s a game, why not shake it up?’ he says, noting that catfishing helped him in the long run.

But after making the final four, Seaburn had to come face to face with the other contestants – as himself. ‘I was shaking in my boots,’ he admits. ‘I was like, “I hope they want to be my friend after this.”’

SHUBHAM GOEL, 24

ALEX LAKE, 33

Alex posed as single ladies’ man ‘Adam’ in hope of bagging the $151,000 prize, but ended up ruffling feathers with his self-described ‘awkward’ flirting with castmates.

There was ‘lots of cringing’, the married artist admits of watching the show later with his real-life wife.

‘I probably could’ve avoided the words arouse and romp.’ In the end, Alex realised that posing as a Lothario ultimately worked against him.

The lovable scenewho started out in place before climbi to the final two, is content with how the social experiment ended. ‘I played the game to the best of my ability,’ he says. ‘All we ca do is trust our gut the moment and le from our choices.’ of The Circle, Shubham aka Shooby – who ran for governor of California in 2018 – is looking toward the future. ‘I’d love to go back into politics,’ he adds. ‘I think I can bring value to society with new ideas and platforms.’

ALANA DUVAL, 25 The confident model, who was the first to get sent home, started a female group chat called ‘Skinny Queens’, which caused major eye rolls. ‘It’s lingo for girls uplifting girls,’ she says in her defence, insisting, ‘It had nothing to do with body shaming.’ Alana’s biggest takeaway from the game? ‘It’s much harder to express yourself through messages.’ She adds, ‘Just call or FaceTime me instead!’ Noted!

KARYN BLANCO, 38 While some players used their real photos, others chose to take on another persona. Karyn disguised herself as ‘Mercedeze’ – and sniffed out another catfish. ‘Something about Rebecca wasn’t right,’ she says of correctly sussing out Seaburn’s fake ID. ‘My intuition is A1.’ Though the musician was eventually blocked, she has no regrets.

Will she say yes? You’ll have to tune in to find out!

Horoscopes WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE WEEK AHEAD HOLDS? TURN TO THE STARS TO FIND OUT! FEB 19-MAR 20

There’s some stressy energy in your astro zone of hopes and wishes, which could be making you anxious. On Friday, this will be intense when a clash between relationships planet Venus and Pluto, planet of control issues, puts romantic issues right up in your grill. Remember: just because you haven’t reached your final destination yet, doesn’t mean you never will.

GEMINI

MAY 21-JUN 21

It’s not your birthday (yet) but Venus wants you to get all the presents. From Wednesday, the planet of pleasure is in your astro zone of pampering and shopping (yep, that’s a thing), which means the universe is telling you to treat yo’self.

Meanwhile, strategic Mercury in your zone of networking makes this a great time for collabs and team support.

CANCER

JUN 22-JUL 22

APR 20-MAY 20

On Friday, relationships planet Venus does fisticuffs with Pluto, planet of hidden truths, so if you’ve given someone the benefit of the doubt for too long that could blow up in your face. That theme continues on Tuesday, when Venus clashes with sensible Saturn – make sure you’re in love with the person you’re with, not the person you want them to become.

LEO

JUL 23-AUG 22

This Mercury retrograde is kinda brutal, hey? The trickster planet is going backwards through your astro zone of optimism, which can leave you feeling as deflated as a kid when the post-Easter sugar high wears off. This planetary hijinks – which lasts until next week – can also cause miscommunication, travel delays and head fogginess.

This isn’t a great time for moving ahead with financial plans unfortunately. Mercury, planet of detail, is causing drama by going backwards through your astro zone of investments and long-term financial plans, which means you could easily make a costly mistake. If you really can’t wait, run your eyes over everything thoroughly before you commit.

VIRGO

LIBRA

SCORPIO

SEPT 23-OCT 23

OCT 24-NOV 21

You know how lovely your skin feels after exfoliating? That’s proof clearing away old stuff is good for you. This Friday, Pluto, planet of hidden truths, clashes with relationship planet Venus, which may bring up sore points in your romantic past. Clearing these away – by facing up to them, rather than avoiding them – will do wonders for your relationship MO.

Every time you think you’re getting somewhere, the universe flips the Monopoly board upside down and you have to start again… sound familiar? Take heart, Libra – this is only temporary.

Mischievous Mercury is causing drama in your astro zone of productivity, which means getting momentum is seriously hard right now.

On Friday, fire and fury between intense Pluto and harmonious Venus could bring jealousy and hidden insecurities to the fore.

Don’t let this heavier energy convince you that you aren’t good enough – especially in relationship matters. Thankfully, Venus, planet of beauty, is in your zone of self-care, so pampering treatments will remind you of your worth.

SAGITTARIUS

CAPRICORN

AQUARIUS

Oh hey there, every emotion.

Cerebral Mercury is causing chaos in your astro zone of feelings, making you want to run away from the world and hide.

This, too, shall pass (around March 9). Meanwhile, is it time to give your relationships the Marie Kondo treatment? From Wednesday, Venus, planet of balance, is in your zone of wellbeing, inspiring you to ditch any relationship vampires.

The number one quality people seek in a partner isn’t rockstar looks, it’s confidence. Luckily for you, confidence planet Mars is in your sign, which means your self-belief and sex appeal are peaking right now. If you’re single and keen to change your relationship status, this isn’t a time for playing coy. If you’re bae-d up, think about whether your insecurities are affecting your relationship.

NOV 22-DEC 21

TAURUS

This Tuesday, you may feel torn between fun and responsibility… how very Gemini of you! Blame adulting planet Saturn and pleasure planet Venus, which are engaged in a fiery clash of Khloé Kardashian and Jordyn Woods proportions. Meanwhile, if you’re holding back in love – maybe inventing reasons to be cautious – Wednesday’s mood will change everything.

What’s standing in your way, Aquarius? Big-game planet Jupiter is in your astro zone of healing and closure, helping you ditch anything holding you back from totally slaying. If past experiences have dented your confidence, work at achieving Beyoncé-level self-approval.

Meanwhile, the energy of last week’s new moon in your financial zone can help you get on top of your cashflow.
