Woman's Day Magazine NZ

It seems like just the other day that I was interviewing Jacinda Ardern for our Woman’s Day “25 Women We Love” cover story to mark our 25th birthday. Back in 2014, she was simply a list MP, but we knew she was destined for bigger things, boldly referring to her as a “future prime minister” as we dressed her up like Wonder Woman with a silver sash across her forehead.

Meanwhile, as I wait by the letterbox, I’ll be googling my local community pest-control groups. Inspired by our story on heroic wildlife warrior women – as well as a recent trip to Rangitoto Island, where I…

margot bowls shane over!

Shane Warne may be batting above his average, but the cricket star seems truly smitten with actress Margot Robbie! “Margot cops a lot of stick from her Aussie and British mates who have noticed Shane comments on or likes almost everything she posts,” says a source. “He obviously has a huge crush on her.” On April 17, Shane gushed, “Keep rocking it Margot!” on one of her posts, and wrote “Aussie” along with the clapping emoji on another on April 26. And while the source tells Woman’s Day that Margot’s hubby Tom Ackerley is “super chill” about Shane’s fawning, he might not be too pleased to hear rumours the 51-year-old former cricketer’s thinking about approaching Margot, 30, to collaborate on a “gritty” film project about his life. “Shane’s always thought Margot looks like a…

brooklyn’s baby news

Brooklyn Beckham has sparked rumours he’s getting broody, after writing he hopes “to be the amazing dad you are” in a post to his father David in honour of his 46th birthday on May 2. And the 22-year-old’s fiance, actress Nicola Peltz, only added to the baby buzz, by sharing she’d been struck down with a mystery illness on April 29. The 26-year-old posted a photo of a bouquet the Beckhams sent her, with a note wishing her to “get well soon”. “I have the best family. I’m so lucky,” Nicola captioned the snap. Fans were quick to suggest the mystery illness could be morning sickness.…

is princess beatrice expecting?

Speculation is rife among royal circles that Princess Beatrice is pregnant – and she didn’t do anything to quell the whispers while out on a date with husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi last week. The 32-year-old royal was spotted exiting private member’s club Loulou’s clad all in black while strategically holding a shawl and bag over her belly. A source says, “It wouldn’t surprise me if they were expecting. Beatrice has always wanted to be a mum, a need that only grew when her sister [Princess Eugenie] had her son earlier this year. “They’re coming up to their one-year anniversary, so it would be the perfect time for a baby announcement.” Beatrice is already step-mum to the 37-year-old businessman’s son Wolfie, from his relationship with US architect Dara Huang.…
