Delta Goodrem celebrates newlywed bliss with husband Matthew Copley as the couple cruise around Malta with celebrity pals in stunning post-wedding yacht party
Delta Goodrem 's wedding celebrations have officially gone offshore.
The Aussie pop princess, 40, continued her romantic Maltese nuptials with an extravagant day at sea on Friday, hosting an exclusive yacht party for close friends two days after tying the knot with longtime love Matthew Copley.
The group set sail from the coast of Valletta, boarding a luxury chartered yacht to cruise the sparkling Mediterranean in true celebrity style – and not a detail was spared.
From diving into the crystal-clear water and soaking up the sun to clinking champagne flutes and sharing sweet moments on deck, the newlyweds and their glamorous guests enjoyed a relaxed yet glitzy day of post-wedding bliss.
Before slipping into her swimsuit, Delta was pictured arriving in a stunning powder-blue sleeveless gown that hugged her frame and featured a dramatic draped detail at the waist.
From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, .
Delta was seen laughing and jumping into the water with her husband before the pair embraced in a cheeky kiss on the cheek while cooling off in the Mediterranean
She accessorised with oversized white sunglasses and a wide-brimmed sunhat, flashing a huge smile as she laughed with friends and waved to onlookers.
Delta later changed into a cobalt-blue one-piece swimsuit with stylish side cut-outs and tie detailing.
The singer paired her look with gold bangles and her jaw-dropping diamond wedding ring.
Delta's husband, musician Matthew Copley, made a stylish arrival, stepping onto the dock in a classic black collared shirt, crisp white shorts, and dark espadrilles.
He carried a monogrammed tote bag and looked every bit the effortlessly chic groom.
Later, he ditched the shirt and was seen relaxing on deck, wrapped in a white towel, sipping champagne and chatting with friends.

Among the guest list was Nine entertainment reporter Richard Wilkins, who looked cool and collected in a black button-up shirt and dark sunglasses.
He was joined by partner Mia Hawkswell, who rocked a sleek black bikini with a bold red sarong tied around her waist.
The couple were seen mingling with guests on the deck and enjoying the ocean breeze as festivities kicked into full swing.
Delta's mother, Lea, and brother, Trent, were also spotted onboard, soaking up the sun as the Goodrem-Copley clan celebrated their big milestone.
Guests at the ultra-private wedding reportedly received detailed schedules months in advance, with the celebration marking the culmination of a two-year planning process.
Delta and Matthew officially said 'I do' in the most romantic setting imaginable.
The singer married her longtime love and guitarist in the same country where they got engaged last year.
The wedding, which took place on Monday, was an extravagant multi-day celebration attended by the couple's nearest and dearest.
Delta and Matt couldn't keep their hands off one another while in the water
The star-studded nuptials had reportedly been two years in the making, with guests receiving detailed schedules ahead of the big day.
The Innocent Eyes hitmaker enjoyed her hen's party in Sydney back on April 26, surrounded by close friends before jetting overseas for the lavish affair.
Delta recently wrapped up a series of exclusive shows in the UK to mark 20 years since her iconic Mistaken Identity album, but it wasn't just her singing that had people talking.
The songstress, who has remained private about her personal life, got engaged to Matthew, her guitarist and musical collaborator, in September 2023.
'My best friend asked me to marry him,' she giddily captioned the image, alongside a ring emoji.
Delta also shared footage of the precious moment to the social media platform.
Malta holds a particularly special place in her heart – not only was it the setting for her romantic engagement to Matthew, but it also boasts deep personal and professional ties for the singer.
In a video shared on YouTube in 2023, Delta opened up about her bond with the southern European nation.
'My partner's family are all from Malta,' she said, before adding that many of her longtime band members and backup singers also share Maltese heritage.

Neighbours finale ‘set to fall flat' as only one former star signs up to appear – and A-lists snub final episode
setback Neighbours finale 'set to fall flat' as only one former star signs up to appear – and A-lists snub final episode Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) NEIGHBOURS' upcoming final episode could reportedly 'fall flat' - with only one former star signed up to appear. Earlier this year, the beloved Aussie soap was axed for a second time, having been saved by Amazon after 37 years on Channel 5. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 A-List former Neighbours stars have reportedly snubbed the upcoming finale Credit: Alamy 4 Guy Pearce returned for the 2022 finale - then believed to be the last ever episode Credit: Fremantle 4 Natalie Imbruglia played Beth Brennan in the 90s Credit: PA:Press Association The original finale saw Kylie Mingoue and Jason Donovan return to Ramsay Street, alongside other show alums. However, bosses' attempts to bring back A-listers this time around have reportedly not panned out. According to Daily Mail Australia, stars such as Margot Robbie, Natalie Imbruglia, Guy Pearce and Russell Crowe are all said to have snubbed the final episode. An insider told the publication: "The cast of the current season will need to rely on the storylines that involve their characters, because breaking out the cheque book won't cover it." Read more on Neighbours high hopes Neighbours' boss reveals hope show WILL return despite being cancelled twice Regarding the 2022 finale, the source added: "The mega stars waived their usual million dollar fees and felt like they were waving goodbye to the show that launched them. It was very classy. "The fact that Alan Fletcher, Jackie Woodburn and Ryan Maloney were tipped off as the show was saved during Neighbours' "farewell tour" was pretty awkward in retrospect." One confirmed returnee is Kimberley Davies, who appeared as Annalise Hartman from 1993 to 1996. The 52-year-old later moved to the United States, appearing in episodes of Friends and Ally McBeal. Amazon announced at the end of 2022 that it was bringing the iconic programme back in a multi-year deal. It started filming in 2023 and was shown on Amazon Freevee worldwide. Neighbours is being axed again - after production company Fremantle failed to agree a new deal with Amazon However, last year Amazon axed the service and folded it into its Prime Video streaming offering. And now, after two years streaming, the show will come to an end once more. The Sun exclusively revealed production on Neighbours would be stopping this summer - with the final episode airing at the end of the year. A source said at the time: 'Amazon gave Fremantle two years to see if it worked but sadly they just didn't get the viewers. Neighbours stars who made it big The long-running Aussie soap has launched the careers of some of Hollywood's biggest stars. Here are some of the Neighbours alums who went on to make it big after starring on the soap... Kylie Minogue Before she hit the big time with her music career, Kylie shot to fame playing Charlene Mitchell on Neighbours. Shortly after her arrival, Kylie began an on and off-screen romance with co-star Jason Donovan, who played Scott Robinson, which gained the couple an army of adoring fans. Jason Donovan After his stint as Scott, singer and actor Jason became an international popstar and had his pick acting of roles. He moved to the U.K., married, had children and has since starred in over a dozen West End show, most notably Joseph and his Technicolour Dreamcoat. Alan Dale New Zealand born actor Alan was one of Neighbours 12 original cast members having made his debut as Jim Robinson on the soap's first episode on 18 March 1985. As the head of the Robinson clan, widower Jim lived at Number 26 Ramsay Street with his children Paul, Julie, Scott and Lucy, and was a real anchor in the community. He stayed with the show for eight years, before his character was killed off in dramatic scenes aired in 1993 but which still reverberate through the soap to this day. Margot Robbie Way before she was Barbie or Harley Quinn, Margot was best known as Ramsay Street resident Donna Freedman. Her notable storylines included her marriage to Ringo Brown and becoming a young widow following his tragic death. After three years she bid farewell to the soap and Australia with a plan to make a name for herself in Hollywood which she did when she bagged the role of Naomi Lapaglia opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in The Wolf of Wall Street. Jesse Spencer Jesse rocked up on Ramsay street in 1994 with the rest of the Kennedy clan. He stayed for five years, literally growing up in front of the camera, but in 2000 felt it was time to spread his wings and head for Hollywood. It was certainly a smart move as he went on to bag leading roles in popular shows like House and Chicago Fire. Russell Crowe New Zealand-native Russell had a brief arc on Neighbours, appearing in four episodes of the soap 1987 as Kenny Larkin, the former cellmate of Street resident Henry Ramsay. The role obviously got him noticed though because he quickly went on to become a fully-fledged Hollywood A-lister, winning the Best Actor Oscar for his standout performance as Roman General Maximus Decimus Meridius in Gladiator. 'It's a really sad day especially for the cast and crew who work on the show in Melbourne. 'This really is the end of Neighbours just as it's celebrated it's 40th birthday.' The show's official X account posted: "We are sad to announce that Neighbours will be resting from December 2025. "New episodes from the 40th anniversary season will continue to air on Prime Video and Ten four times a week until the end of the year, with all the big soapie twists and turns that our viewers love."

Ioan Gruffudd's pregnant wife posts update after ex Alice Evans' torture comment
Ioan Gruffudd revealed his wife, Bianca, was expecting the couple's first baby on Father 's Day as his ex, Alice Evans, who shares two kids with the actor, made a cryptic comment Ioan Gruffudd's wife, Bianca, has shared the realities of pregnancy after revealing she was expectin g the couple's first baby on Father's Day. The pair, who met on the set of Aussie ABC series, Harrow, got hitched in April, two years after Hornblower star, Ioan, split up from his first wife, Alice Evans. Alice is said to be "absolutely fuming" after the couple's baby news, telling fans it was "some kind of torture" after they made their announcement. However, Bianca says she's enduring her own 'torture', conceding she was "shocked to find out how f****d pregnancy is". Taking to Instagram with a candid video diary, the actress can be seen lying in bed with a heat pack, wincing in pain as she describes how constant vomiting left her bedridden and unable to sleep. She revealed she's been so violently sick since becoming pregnant, she injured her back and shared a snap of herself looking pale and drained after throwing up a staggering 67 times in one day. Captioning the carousel of images, which also includes a bowl of cornflakes, which she says is the only food she can keep down, Bianca wrote: "Life lately… Some real moments, because no one needs to be as shocked as I was to find out how f****d pregnancy actually is." Reassuring others who may be experiencing similarly "s**t" symptoms , she added: "You're not crazy! More often than not it isn't just nausea and "morning sickness". It IS s*t and rough and f**ked and it IS ok to be honest about it!" Bianca and Ioan announced their baby news on Father's Day as the Welsh actor shared a snap of himself kissing his wife's bump with the caption: "Baby Gruffudd poppin' out to say hello!" Their fans were quick to send their congratulations, however, Alice wasn't quite as pleased as she posted, without naming the couple: 'Some people like to go low. I can't. Not because I'm better. But because I have kids. This s**t is some kind of torture." Ioan and Alice formally divorced in July 2023. However, they are still battling fiercely over spousal support for their two daughters Ella, 15, and Elsie, 11. Alice spoke candidly about the split, telling followers she was in 'excruciating pain' as she opened up about the break-up in agonising detail. in 2021, the 102 Dalmatians star said she was desperately fighting to save the relationship but said she 'can't see' Ioan coming back. The pair shared a joint statement admitting they were going through a 'difficult time' as their 13 year marriage crumbled. In a follow-up post, Alice took to Instagram to share a photo of a broken heart and another image of a heart on a blackboard with 'Game over' written across it. Ioan and Bianca went public with their relationship in 2021 after working together in Australia. It was another two years before Ioan's divorce from Alice was finalised. During that time he went through a bitter court hearing with his ex-wife, where he sought a restraining order against Alice. Ioan and Bianca claimed to have endured a 'smear campaign' of hateful text messages, emails and social media posts from the mum-of-two. Ioan also fought Alice's request for more money for spousal support, claiming he had paid $400,000 (£294,000) more than he needed to. In court papers he called Alice's claims of poverty were 'exaggerated' and said it's a 'false narrative' that she and the children have been left destitute. In February this year, Alice claimed she'd been evicted from her home in Los Angeles after being 'unable to pay her rent'. The actress said she and her daughters had been forced to leave and had 'no way of renting even the cheapest room in the city.'

Jay Z takes a subtle swipe at Kanye West after his 'vulgar and offensive' tweets about their family - as he performs with wife Beyonce for the first time in seven years
Jay Z delivered a subtle swipe at Kanye West on Sunday night as he made a surprise appearance during Beyoncé's Paris concert. The husband and wife duo sent fans wild as they performed at Stade de France during Beyonce's third Cowboy Carter Tour show in the city - their first time performing together in seven years. Fan footage circulating online, including a clip by Cardi B, who was in the audience, showed Beyoncé stepping aside during Crazy in Love as Jay made a sudden appearance on stage to rap his verse. In addition, Jay also joined his wife for a version of 2013's Drunk in Love, remixed with Partition, and his own N***** in Paris, which was originally a collaboration with Kanye. However, the rappers are currently feuding, following Kanye's shocking tweets attacking Beyoncé, Jay-Z, and their young children. During the rendition, fans noticed that Jay Z switched up the lyrics, rapping: 'Gold bottles, scold models, Spillin' Ace on my sick J's. (Ball so hard) B***h, behave. Just might let you meet Bey' - using his wife's name instead of Ye's. Fans were quick to notice the change, taking to X/Twitter to share: 'JAYZ changing the lyrics to 'i just might let u meet bey''; 'After the way Kanye talked about his kids .jay is done with ye for good'; 'Don't blame it. Talk about my damn kids you dead to me. Forever!'; 'You see he's over Kanye & his mess he changed the lyrics'. In March, it was claimed Beyoncé and Jay-Z were considering taking legal action against Kanye after his disturbing social media post about their twins Rumi and Sir. After the rapper used highly offensive language to question the mental capacities of their seven-year-olds, a source told Page Six that the couple are 'discussing how they want to handle this situation, whether that be privately and/or in a legal matter.' The insider also stressed that the superstar and Roc Nation founder 'will absolutely not stand for' how Kane 'has spoken about their children.' They are said to have found the language he used 'vulgar and offensive' and do not currently have 'plans on publicly addressing Kanye's X posts about their children.' Although Kanye has removed the post, he clarified that he didn't taken it down to be 'a good person.' 'I need everyone to know that I took the post about Jay Z and Beyoncé's family down … because there was a possibility of my Twitter being cancelled [sic],' he wrote on X. While Kanye has continued to make a series of outlandish and controversial posts on X, he is not believed to have tweeted about the Carter family since. Elsewhere during her performance, Beyonce surprised fans when she started smoking a cigarette. As seen in fan-taken footage at previous shows, she would take 'smoking hot' literally and go onstage to theatrically light a piano on fire. The Texas Hold 'Em hitmaker performed the final one out of three shows in Paris when she brought out her husband for a surprise performance. The last time the couple performed together was at the Global Citizen Festival: Mandela 100 in Johannesburg, South Africa, in December 2018. The singer-songwriter made her concert in the City of Lights a family affair as she also performed with her eldest daughter Blue Ivy like she had done for her preceding shows. Beyonce's mom Tina Knowles was also reportedly in attendance alongside eight-year-old daughter Rumi Carter but her twin brother Sir Carter did not make an appearance. With a stadium full of her cheering fans, Beyonce took to the stage in a glamorous outfit with a fur vest with an incredibly long train trailing behind her as she strutted around onstage. She wore a sparkly, silver bustier paired with high-waisted, cheeky microshorts and over-the-knee cowboy boots. With a stadium full of her cheering fans, Beyonce took to the stage in a glamorous outfit with a fur vest with an incredibly long train trailing behind her as she strutted around onstage The final Cowboy Carter concert in Paris comes shortly after it was revealed that Beyonce and Jay-Z's eldest child Blue Ivy is interested in releasing songs of her own. An insider told the Daily Mail this week that the teenager is saddling up to follow in her parents' shoes and 'is considering starting her own career in music.' The source continued, 'Some of Beyoncé's favorite writers are quietly penning demos for her in anticipation of a solo album.' With no shortage of industry bigwigs to lean on, the youngster has reportedly sought help from her famous aunt Solange Knowles and already has tracks lined up from The-Dream, should she want them. The American songwriter and producer has long worked with Beyoncé, co-writing songs including Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It) and Break My Soul from her Grammy-winning Renaissance album. He also worked with Jay-Z on his 2013 track No Church in the Wild. 'Blue is also writing material with help from Solange,' our source continued. 'The-Dream has been spearheading it, and he has two or three records for her,' the insider continued. 'They know the fans want to hear a Blue record.' They added: 'She is only allowed to listen to age-appropriate songs from artists and has been listening to Infinity Song, Michelle Williams' Heart 2 Yours record and Goapele.' Blue Ivy's foray into solo stardom won't be her first shot at singing. The young teen, whose fan base is known as the Ivy League, had credits to her name long before reaching double digits in age. Dubbed 'the most famous baby in the world' by TIME, just ten days after her birth in January 2012 her coos and cries featured on her dad's track Glory. The following year she landed a credit on her mom's single Blue from her self-titled album.
