It may be the holiday season, but there’s no rest for Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie as they promote their new film. Although this is the third film the pair have starred in together, Babylon – which hits our cinemas on January 19 – is the first time Brad, 59, and Margot, 32, have shared a scene. And Margot made sure she made the most of the opportunity, confessing that she convinced director Damien Chazelle to add a kiss between their characters. “I said, ‘Damien, I think Nellie would just go up and kiss Jack.’ And Damien was like, ‘Hold on. You just wanna kiss Brad Pitt,’” she tells with a laugh. “And I was like, ‘Oh, so sue me! This opportunity might never come up again.’” The adoration goes…

I remember well the chaotic yet wonderful years of a house filled with young children, and reading this week’s cover story with Sam and Sarah Wallace took me right back there! As they share from page six, they’re heading away in a campervan this year for some holiday fun. I always called such an adventure a “change of scenery” rather than a break, because while you may be able to enjoy some sun, sand and surf, you still have the early-morning starts and are catering to the needs of the little ones! These adventures are what make such wonderful memories, even when things don’t go to plan – we certainly had some mishaps. Elsewhere, we talk with journalist Lisette Reymer who, as you may have seen on the news, has…

After a romantic wedding in March followed by their first overseas family holiday, seasoned broadcaster Sam Wallace and wife Sarah look at each other with wry smiles and sum up their 2022 in one word – “expensive”. In a rare quiet moment for the couple – whose son Brando, four, is at preschool and 22-month-old twin daughters Sienna and Cosette are upstairs taking a nap – the realisation suddenly hits as to how big their past year has really been. “It’s only now I’m reflecting on it that yeah, it’s been massive,” says Sam, a breakfast host on Coast FM and television co-host on Ten 7: Aotearoa. “There’s also recently a sense of normality coming back to our lives, now we’re out of the survival mode of newborn twins. It’s taken us…
