Lena Dunham reveals how she was before meeting her husband
Lena Dunham was "wrecking herself on male attention" before she met her husband. The 39-year-old comedian and writer - whose new semi-autobiographical series 'Too Much' is heading to Netflix - has reflected on her experiences with men which led her to "stop trusting herself" in her own love life before she met husband Luis Felber. She told British Vogue magazine's July issue: "You really never know when you're having your last affair. "Some of us hope that every frog we kiss is our happy ending, while others stand hand in hand with their soulmate, still terrified of the vista narrowing, the buffet running out, closing time. "Even now, I can't be sure. It's not that I don't trust my husband or our life – I do, very much. "It's that at some point along the way, wrecking myself again and again on the rocky shores of male attention, I stopped trusting myself." Lena met Luis, 38, in January 2021 after friends set them up on a blind date, and they got married eight months later. Just two weeks before moving to London - where she met her now-husband - she had a steamy affair with a man from Los Angeles called Craig, but it wasn't to be. His messages dried up, and she found herself in tears over him, it was meant to be. She recalled: "Two weeks after quarantine ended a friend would encourage me to get back on the horse and send my number to a man who he swore was 'not your husband or anything, just a fun times guy'. "I didn't know that man would, in fact, be my husband. "Craig's immaturity made me feel less old and his beauty made me feel more beautiful. I wanted, too badly, to be both of those things – and so I saw very little. "It took longer than I'd like to admit to realise he hadn't awoken me – I was waking and he walked by."

How Grant helped Howarth storm into Maroons plans
Melbourne centre Jack Howarth admits he had a lot to learn about being an NRL player at the Storm until club captain Harry Grant explained a few home truths to him. The 22-year-old is regarded by Queensland and Storm legend Cooper Cronk as a Maroons player of the near future but that only became abundantly clear last year in Howarth's breakout season on the way to the grand final. Howarth, a former Australian Schoolboys league gun and Brisbane Boys Colleges (BBC) rugby star, signed a five-year contract with the Storm in January, 2022. It took him until 2024 to get a regular gig with the Storm but now the former Queensland under 19s league rep has his sights set on a Maroons debut. "I lived with Harry Grant for a year and he would cut clips up for me and tell me what I was doing right and what I needed to do better to be in the team," Howarth told AAP. "Harry had explained to me a few things I had to change because what I thought was important is a lot different to what (Storm coach) Craig Bellamy thinks is important. "Craig is a very effort area type of person and I was always more concerned with how I went in attack. That is what I would base my game off, whereas he based a good game off defence and effort so I realised that and switched my mentality. "My dream is to play for Queensland. It is the pinnacle of rugby league, especially coming from Rockhampton and doing all my schooling in Brisbane. "Just being amongst all the Origins in Brisbane growing up was crazy. Hopefully I do get the opportunity." Howarth is a huge young man with ball skills, speed and genuine oomph. He has only just returned to the Storm side after missing six weeks with a shoulder dislocation. He will line up in the centres against North Queensland at AAMI Park on Friday night. Selection in this year's Origin series may appear a bridge too far but Howarth knows what Maroons coach Billy Slater, who helps out the Storm, wants from him. 'Billy does show me a few clips from games," Howarth said. "He is very similar to Craig. It is the effort areas that he wants me to do well in." Howarth starred in a 36-20 win by the Australian Schoolboys rugby league side over the Junior Kiwis while playing as a tall, rangy, wide-running back-rower. At the Storm he has found his niche at centre. "When I first came down I trained in the centres and I struggled defensively there because there was a lot of decision making, whereas back-row is more putting pressure on opponents," he said. "Craig said that the opportunity was in the centres so I had to knuckle down. I was lucky I got a whole (2024) pre-season in and he was happy with how I went, so he gave me a crack. "At the Storm, even though it is a competitive environment, people are willing to help. When Juzzy (Justin Olam) was here he was helping with my defence. Now it's Nick Meaney. "At the moment I have (club legend) Will Chambers who is coming into the club and he is working with me on the mental side as well with my defence and attack."
