Jackie ‘O' shares happy snaps with daughter in Italy while on break from radio show
Radio presenter Jackie 'O' Henderson is making the most of her Easter break, soaking up the sights and flavours of Italy with her daughter Kitty.
The mother-daughter duo looked radiant in photos shared to Henderson's Instagram, smiling wide as they indulged in local delights.
'Best damn gelato in the world,' she captioned the photo as the pair relaxed on the steps of San Gimignano, in the heart of Tuscany.
Looking more like sisters, the pair also enjoyed a picturesque bike ride through the Tuscan countryside — an experience Henderson called 'a dream come true.'
The European getaway follows reports that Randwick Council has received complaints about the $5 million rebuild of Henderson's Sydney home.

Paris's Notre-Dame Cathedral wasn't just restored after the fire, it was reborn
Don't miss out on the headlines from Lifestyle. Followed categories will be added to My News. Sitting at the rooftop bar of the Hôtel Dame des Arts above the beating heart of Paris's Latin Quarter, I admire the unobstructed 360-degree views of the city. The Eiffel Tower, Les Invalides' gilded golden dome, too many rooftops and tucked-away balconies to count, and nearby the soaring medieval beauty of the city's Gothic wonder, Notre-Dame Cathedral. This repository of French culture dating back to the 12th century has seen everything from the coronation of Napoleon to the funerals of presidents. On one night in 2019, however, the view would have been vastly different. It would have been horrific. On April 15, around 6.30pm, a fire started in Notre-Dame's roof, destroying much of its 13th-century oak ceiling, its upper walls, and its symbolic crown, a glorious lead-lined 19th-century timber spire. Flames, fed by the forest of timbers in its ceilings, spread toxic lead and dust across a city stunned into shock and disbelief. The process to restore it, at a cost of €700 million ($1.25bn), befits its monumental status. Over 1000 oak trees from almost 200 public and private forests went through 35 sawmills on their way to the French capital. More than 2000 artisans, including carpenters and stonemasons, glassmakers and scaffolders, painters and sculptors and iron forgers joined to help it rise from the ashes, and Notre-Dame reopened to the public on December 7, 2024. I last visited Notre-Dame in 2010. Back then its interior seemed to me a shadowy realm, a bleak-looking sanctuary, weathered by centuries of neglect. Bacteria and an accumulation of grime and pollution had infiltrated its porous, Lutetian limestone. The passing of time had turned it black. The interior isn't just renewed, it shines. After joining a short but growing queue at 7.45am opening time, what I see when I enter this time, armed only with that memory of a somewhat faded masterpiece, stops me in my tracks. The interior isn't just renewed, it shines. Everything – pillars and pointed arches, its ribbed vaulted ceilings and its statuary and every carving both great and small – seems alive. Though some of its stained glasses have been replaced, most survived the fire and have been cleaned and are alive with colour. Lasers were used to vaporise eight centuries of grime from carvings and hard-to-get-at niches. Calcium carbonate-based abrasives were applied under low pressure to its broader surfaces such as pillars and walls, and its stonework is now without blemish. You can take a guided tour of the renewed cathedral, but I prefer instead to wander on my own and contemplate this enduring testament to the ingenuity of an army of dedicated artisans, and of a people of indomitable faith. Entry to Notre-Dame is always free. How much does admission cost at Notre-Dame Cathedral, Paris Entry to Notre-Dame is always free. It's open from 7.45am-7pm Monday to Friday, and 8.15am-7.30pm on weekends. A range of paid guided tours is also available. Best place to stay in Paris Hôtel Dame des Arts is close to the cathedral.

Argue starred in a slew of Aussie films including Gallipoli, Hercules Returns and Razorback. He quietly created a GoFundMe page in January to assist with his health issues, hoping to raise funds to purchase a mobility scooter. 'Due to some health issues including cancer my circulation is poor my legs are in constant pain with cramping and walking has become increasingly difficult,' Argue wrote. 'Life is not getting any simpler either! I am requesting assistance to buy myself a mobility scooter. A scooter will be incredibly helpful for my day to day life, allow me to easily visit my family more often and access public transport. I hope this note finds you well. 'Sincerely David Argue (Icon, Legend, Enemy to himself and Burden to his friends!)' David Argue, the Australian actor, has died aged 65. Picture: Umbrella Entertainment Australian film distribution company Umbrella Entertainment paid tribute to Argue on its Instagram account, describing him as a 'comedic genius.' 'David was an actor who forced the audience to react. His presence on screen was never stale, he creatively sparred with his co-stars in evocative ways that made them rise to the occasion, meeting his mad-hatter charisma head-on,' the statement read. 'Umbrella have been honoured to celebrate David, restoring and releasing several of his films from Razorback to Hercules Returns, BMX Bandits, Midnite Spares, and more.' Celebrity deaths Start Remembering the famous faces we lost in 2025 Australian actors Tom Burlinson and David Argue at the Scene film awards in 1984. Meanwhile, The Victorian Actors Benevolent Trust released a statement saying, 'David was a remarkably talented and much-loved actor.' It continued, 'He had the rare gift of making any character he played utterly unique and totally believable. In recent years, as David's health declined, the VABT was able to provide much needed assistance and emotional support. 'In return, David had no hesitation in championing our work, most recently with a deeply personal and humorous reflection at our Trivia Fundraiser. We have lost a formidable talent and a dear friend. Vale David RIP.' Argue has lived his life primarily out of the spotlight over the past few years, with his final TV credit in a 1997 episode of Water Rats, while his last movie was 2021's Astro Loco.
