It’s been an extra-long wait for the Olympics – but now that the Tokyo Games are here, I could not be more excited! My favourite sports to watch are the swimming, as well as the track and field events. You can bet I’ll be at home waving my Aussie flag and cheering at the television! Meanwhile, my son loves running and is super fast. (He certainly doesn’t get it from me!) Not only will he be watching the current batch of star athletes in action, but he’s already told me he hopes to compete in the 2024 Olympics. Aim for the stars!

WIPPA STALKED BY CRAZED FAN!

An obsessed fan of Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli faced court for an apprehended violence order last week after allegedly bombarding the popular Nova host with “hundreds” of messages and showing up outside his radio station. The woman is said to have run a fan site for Wippa, 41, called ‘All My Love’, where she described him as “very romantic and caring”. Last month, the woman allegedly sent Wippa images of herself wearing underwear as well as with a toy baby. She claimed the Celebrity Apprentice star would be “the father of her child”. On July 7, a magistrate told the court that she had received a message from a health worker raising concerns about an intellectual disability.

ANH DO UNDER FIRE!

Anh Do has shot down suggestions that he doesn’t personally paint the celebrity portraits on his popular series, Anh’s Brush With Fame. In a recent interview, the 44-year-old, who has painted the likes of Marcia Hines and Dannii Minogue, said, “It’s all my own work.” Despite the declaration, Anh’s longtime tutor and fellow artist Paul Ryan explained in the same article that he often assists in the initial stages of the portraits – but added that Anh has rebuffed his request for a “consultant’s credit” on the show. “Anh is a bit cagey about revealing how it all comes together – he doesn’t like me talking about it,” Paul explained. Although Anh admits to seeking Paul’s “advice”, he’s adamant that all preliminary drawings and paintings are exclusively his own work.…

LIZ’S SON CUT FROM $330M INHERITANCE!

Elizabeth Hurley’s son, Damian, has been cut off from inheriting his late father’s large fortune. The multimillionaire businessman, Steve Bing, committed suicide over a year ago, leaving behind Damian and a daughter, Kira, from a previous relationship. In the lead-up to his tragic death, Steve had not only taken steps to reconcile with Damian, but had also secured a court judgement confirming both his children would be beneficiaries of a family trust. Yet, this decision was overturned on appeal, which means Damian is no longer entitled to the inheritance. The ruling hinged on the fact that Steve’s children were born out of wedlock. New Idea understands the betrayal has devastated Liz, not only because it deprived her son of about $330 million, but also because Damian’s been effectively disowned by his father’s family. For help,…

QUEEN BEGS: ‘LET ME SEE ARCHIE & LILIBET!’

When it was reported late last week that Prince Harry is set to return to the UK in September with his wife, Meghan Markle, and possibly their kids in tow, some thought it meant the couple’s vendetta against the royal family had cooled. Now, New Idea can exclusively reveal that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s trip – under the guise of celebrating the new Princess Diana statue at Kensington Palace when the UK’s COVID-19 regulations are lifted – is the result of a new summons from the Queen.

CHARLOTTE’S TEARS OVER HER COUSINS

At age 6, precocious Princess Charlotte is already ruling the roost at Kensington Palace – and her latest demand is playtime with her Sussex cousins. “It’s strange – he’s all she talks about at the minute, even though she’s only likely met him once,” says a source. “Charlotte’s quite a canny little thing and has probably overheard her parents talking about Uncle Harry’s kids, Archie and Lili. Kate also suspects maybe one of her school friends has been talking about the Sussexes after overhearing some adult gossip. Kate’s heart breaks for Charlotte, who obviously knows something is up. She remembers playtime with Harry and was devastated to find out he’s been home to London and never came to play with her.”…

8 ROYALS WHO COMPETED IN THE OLYMPICS

KING HARALD OF NORWAY His Royal Highness, now 84, competed in yachting events at the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, the 1968 Games in Mexico City and the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich.

JOHN EXPOSES CHURCH SECRETS

More than 12 months have passed since John Travolta lost Kelly Preston, his cherished wife of 28 years, to breast cancer. Now, as he continues to pick up the pieces and move forward with his life, reports have surfaced suggesting the single dad is also planning to break away from the Church of Scientology. John has famously been a faithful Scientology member for 45 years and is one of the church’s most high-profile members, alongside Tom Cruise and Kirstie Alley. However, insiders suggest that the recent tragic events have left the Grease star disillusioned and spurred on his decision to consider quitting Scientology – but he might not walk away quietly. “Friends are whispering that he’s ready to spill all on Scientology now that he’s possibly breaking away from the church,” alleges one insider.…

STARS WHO ESCAPED!

DEMI MOORE Demi was allegedly a devout Scientologist, only to depart once she married her now ex-husband, Bruce Willis. The Ghost star was reportedly asked to quit by Bruce once they had children together, due to his own religious beliefs. BRAD PITT Before he was a megastar, Brad dabbled in Scientology. He was introduced to the religion in the early 1990s by his then-girlfriend, Juliette Lewis.

JOHN EXPOSES CHURCH SECRETS

More than 12 months have passed since John Travolta lost Kelly Preston, his cherished wife of 28 years, to breast cancer. Now, as he continues to pick up the pieces and move forward with his life, reports have surfaced suggesting the single dad is also planning to break away from the Church of Scientology. John has famously been a faithful Scientology member for 45 years and is one of the church’s most high-profile members, alongside Tom Cruise and Kirstie Alley. However, insiders suggest that the recent tragic events have left the Grease star disillusioned and spurred on his decision to consider quitting Scientology – but he might not walk away quietly. “Friends are whispering that he’s ready to spill all on Scientology now that he’s possibly breaking away from the…

PLAY SCHOOL TURNS 55! ‘WE TAUGHT GENERATIONS OF AUSSIES!’

Noni Hazlehurst laughs out loud about a recent trip to the dentist that almost robbed her of her famous gap-toothed smile, which beamed love to millions of Aussie toddlers for 23 years on Play School. “I’m known for my smile ... if a smile is sincere, it is always going to be noticeable,” Noni, 67, says while flashing her signature grin – which thankfully has been restored to its gap-toothed best. But it’s her velvety voice that most fans recognise, after listening to her speak to their children as she presented Play School from 1978 to 2001. “It’s the most enduring thing I’ve done and it’s the thing most people talk to me about with clarity,” says the mum of two. “They’re absolutely certain they know me from that.” Australian actress Benita Collings,…

STARS WHO ESCAPED!

DEMI MOORE Demi was allegedly a devout Scientologist, only to depart once she married her now ex-husband, Bruce Willis. The Ghost star was reportedly asked to quit by Bruce once they had children together, due to his own religious beliefs. BRAD PITT Before he was a megastar, Brad dabbled in Scientology. He was introduced to the religion in the early 1990s by his then-girlfriend, Juliette Lewis. After three years, Brad broke things off with Juliette and the church – and left to seek superstardom on his own.

‘RELIGION SAVED MY LIFE!’

Whenever Rowena Wallace gets talking, there’s no telling where the conversation might lead – and this time around is no exception. In her habitually candid way, Rowena tells New Idea that, after an ongoing battle with depression and suicidal thoughts, she turned to Islam to save her life. “I study a spiritual path which keeps me and my head above water,” explains the star. With a chuckle, she adds, “It keeps me vaguely sane, only vaguely, and my heart pumping.” Specifically, Rowena , 73, says she practises Sufism, which she explains is “an esoteric side of Islam”. While Rowena is the first to admit she often has trouble remembering details and can lose her train of thought mid-sentence, when she begins explaining the religious practice, there’s no mincing her words. “It’s not something…” she pauses, “I’m…

At long last, the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games are here – only it’s 2021 and five years have passed since the last one. But despite the long wait and strict COVID-19 regulations on the ground, Channel 7’s official Olympic host, Edwina Bartholomew, assures New Idea we’re all “in for a real treat”. “I think the fact that it has been so long, not just for our athletes, but us viewers at home has only added to the excitement,” reveals the beloved Sunrise star. “It’s actually our chance to take a little overseas trip without leaving the couch [laughs]. We’re all craving travelling at the moment.” There’s still a week to go before Tokyo presses play on the opening ceremony. While Japan is keeping the specific details under lock and key, Edwina says fans…

As a carer for her autistic and intellectually disabled son, Renee Baker is used to expecting the unexpected and she took the incident in her stride. What she didn’t expect was members of The Wiggles to jump to the rescue, rushing over to comfort Jackson as he recovered from his ordeal. “I couldn’t believe it when the band members noticed, and ran over and stood around trying to comfort him. It was just so heart-warming, I wanted to burst into tears,” Renee, 40, warmly tells New Idea. “Jackson lost his body tone and his legs went wobbly. He couldn’t walk, so I had to sit him down.…

At a pop-up cafe in Sydney, tea and coffee are brewing, while the sound of laughter fills the air from customers pleasantly chattering around a table. Although it might sound cheery, the conversation is a little morbid. These cafe-goers are talking about death as part of a growing movement of everyday people coming together to chat about the taboo topic. End of life counsellor and funeral director, Victoria Spence, is leading the way in helping people open up to the discussion.

SHOCK NEW TWIST: THE DISAPPEARANCE OF JUANITA NIELSEN

The disappearance and presumed murder of Sydney heiress Juanita Nielsen might be one of Australia’s most baffling mysteries, but now the quest to finally solve the 46-year-old case has gained new momentum. Last month, the NSW Police announced a $1 million reward for information surrounding the events of July 4, 1975, when newspaper publisher and anti-real estate development advocate Juanita stepped into a Kings Cross club, never to be seen again. “Juanita Nielsen disappeared at the prime of her life,” Police Minister David Elliott said. “Despite the passage of time, police and this government remain committed to obtaining information about her disappearance.” The reward announcement comes in the wake of months of new exploration into the case. It marked the first time an Australian journalist was killed because she was attempting to reveal…

45TH ANNIVERSARY: CHOWCHILLA SCHOOL BUS KIDNAPPING

Twenty-six children and one middle-aged bus driver were abducted and buried alive in the largest kidnapping in US history. Known as the 1976 Chowchilla Bus Kidnapping case, it has been 45 years since that terrible day, and the survivors still bear the scars and torment that they endured on July 15, 1976. Back then, Chowchilla was a much smaller town than it is today. Roughly 24km from Madera, California, the community is known for its two prisons – but it was the school bus kidnapping that put this town on the map. On July 15, as a summer treat, Dairyland Elementary School students spent the day on an excursion at the local Madera County fairground. They had no idea that a plot being hatched by Frederick Woods and brothers James and Richard…

THE 6-STEP GUIDE TO OVERCOMING YOUR FEARS

Feeling fearful is a natural response when we perceive an experience or situation as a threat. “While one in seven Aussies have suffered some sort of anxiety disorder, being anxious or fearful is something many of us experience daily,” explains psychologist Dr Amy Silver. “However, fear can become dominant, so loud in our head that it controls our choices and our behaviour. Sometimes we do not even know when it is doing so!” If you would like to grow your courage, speak up or simply be more of who you want to be, try Dr Silver’s tips to address your worries. UNDERSTAND YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH ANXIETY Tune into what your fear says. Imagine it as a person. How does it make you feel and what does it want you to do? Perhaps you will…

THE BENEFITS Volunteering is beneficial, not just for those on the receiving end, but also for those using their time to help others. The bonuses include being a part of a community, learning new skills and combating any feelings of isolation. Carole Schlessinger, co-founder of Kids Giving Back – an organisation that provides age-appropriate volunteering opportunities – explains that in children, helping others is a great way to develop a deeper sense of self. “Creating volunteering opportunities for young people is a proactive approach to providing our youth with some answers in their search for meaning, as they develop a commitment to society and understand their role in making a difference,” she says. It also does wonders for building empathy. “Through volunteering, children cultivate openness in the way they connect with others, instead of a…

THE 6-STEP GUIDE TO OVERCOMING YOUR FEARS

Feeling fearful is a natural response when we perceive an experience or situation as a threat. “While one in seven Aussies have suffered some sort of anxiety disorder, being anxious or fearful is something many of us experience daily,” explains psychologist Dr Amy Silver. “However, fear can become dominant, so loud in our head that it controls our choices and our behaviour. Sometimes we do not even know when it is doing so!” If you would like to grow your courage, speak up or simply be more of who you want to be, try Dr Silver’s tips to address your worries. UNDERSTAND YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH ANXIETY Tune into what your fear says. Imagine it as a person. How does it make you feel and what does it want you to…

Fiona Falkiner ‘I WANT TO BE MY BEST SELF’

Three months after giving birth to her beautiful son, Hunter, Fiona Falkiner is well and truly in the baby bubble. “It’s so good, I’m loving being a mum,” the TV star tells New Idea. Although there have been a few sleepless nights for Fiona and her fiancée Hayley Willis, the joy of becoming parents has made it all worthwhile. “It was a bit of a rough start in the beginning, just because he had a tongue tie, so he wasn’t latching properly,” says Fiona. “But then we recognised what it was and got it snipped, and now he’s feeding and sleeping a lot better.” Hunter’s March 22 arrival came after two years of IVF and a complicated pregnancy, which forced Fiona to put her usual fitness routine on hold. “For me, going for that…

DO YOU SUFFER FROM IMPOSTOR SYNDROME?

What do Michelle Obama, Meryl Streep, Jacinda Ardern and Tina Fey have in common? Aside from the fact that they’re all smart and successful women, they’ve all admitted they’ve battled with impostor syndrome. Impostor syndrome is a condition that often affects high achievers who struggle to believe their success is deserved or that it has been achieved through their own hard work and skills. It might be an irrational feeling of being a “fraud” or a nagging fear of being “caught out”. And while it’s often associated with the workplace, impostor syndrome can also occur in relationships and friendships. Lecturer Dr Sue Wilson from Monash University, who has written several research texts on impostor syndrome, says these fears are usually unfounded. “Often when we’re enacting the role in which we feel inadequate,…

ASTRO WITH JENNY BLUME

READER Q&A Q My son is halfway through a teaching degree at university, but he’s started talking about switching to something more creative, like filmmaking. What can you see in his stars? JENNY, LISMORE, NSW. A His chart looks wonderfully creative, but I can also see a passion for teaching, nurturing and learning. I would encourage him to complete his teaching degree, for this is the area in which he should shine brightest – he might even end up as a principal. In the nearer term, perhaps his interest in filmmaking can be explored through short courses or post-graduate studies. His skills could then be integrated into lessons and passed onto students. They will love it! Q My mother-in-law is so opinionated, it’s driving me crazy. She’s become even worse since I had…

BEAMS ABOVE BEDS

Many people know that beams on ceilings are ‘bad feng shui’, but why? Practitioners believe that beams create a cutting energy (called shas), which act almost like an arrow. Exposed beams in high cathedral ceilings are fine, it’s low, heavy beams that can create problems. If your couch or favourite chair sits directly under a beam, move the chair, especially if arguments fl are-up easily. Beams above beds can sometimes signify health problems (when running crosswise) or relationship issues (when lengthwise). If possible, shift your bed or place a feng shui cure. Painting beams to match the ceiling can reduce the negative energy, as can draped fabric or bamboo flutes hung diagonally at each end. Alternatively, why not consider a canopied bed?…

My great-niece, Matisse, is nanny’s sweetheart, daddy’s princess and mummy’s queen. THERESA CHATFIELD, VIA EMAIL. TOILET HUMOUR While out shopping with my two toddlers recently, we stopped at the toilet paper section.
