Jackie 'O' Henderson forces her daughter Kitty, 14, to go back to school just hours after landing from their 24-hour overseas flight

Daily Mail​27-04-2025
Jackie 'O' Henderson jetted back into Sydney early on Monday morning after enjoying a lavish Easter escape with her daughter Kitty in Italy.
And just moments after landing in Australia, the radio star revealed her 14-year-old daughter, who she shares with her ex Lee Henderson, was heading straight back to school.
The 50-year-old called into her KIIS FM radio show around 7am as she made her way from the airport to the studio after her flight was delayed by one day.
She confirmed she was heading straight to work and Kitty was going to school.
'If she is really struggling she can have the day off but I prefer it if she just pushes through,' Jackie O told her co-host Kyle Sandilands.
She also explained that Kitty 'loves' school, does really well and 'gives it her all'.
Jackie eventually arrived to the studio before 7.30am while her daughter made her way to school.
The pair had enjoyed strict mother-daughter time as they travelled for the vacation, which was taken for the Easter and Anzac Day break.
They stayed at the postcard-perfect five-star Passalacqua hotel in Bellagio, Lake Como.
They also visited the village of Moltrasio on Lake Como at Passalacqua, which was voted the world's best hotel in 2023 and 2024.
The structure was rebuilt in 1787 for Count Andrea Lucini-Passalacqua from an original property whose previous owners included Pope Innocent XI and composer Vincenzo Bellini.
Last year, Jackie was called out for taking her daughter Kitty out of school to attend Australian Fashion Week.
The radio host left her KIIS FM show early back in May to head off to her good pal Pip Edwards' P.E Nation show with Kitty.
The mother-daughter duo already attended the first day of AFW at Sydney's Carriageworks for Carla Zampatti's opening night runway show.

As Jackie left the radio studio early for the second event, her co-host Kyle called her out.
He pointed out they frequently promote a government scheme urging parents not to take their children out of school as he commented on Kitty's absence.
The radio shock jock said: 'Why isn't she at school? Aren't we reading ads saying don't take your kids out of school? There's an ad here saying keep your kids at school, we're both reading it!'
Kitty then briefly appeared on the radio to say hello to listeners, while Jackie insisted that attending AFW was great experience for Kitty, who wants to work in fashion.
'Listen, it's great experience for her because she loves fashion and wants to get into that field, don't you?' Jackie shared.

Freakier Friday Easter Eggs explained including hidden Mean Girls reference

Freakier Friday has finally landed in cinemas- and it features nods to Lindsay Lohan's past roles Freakier Friday has finally hit the big screen, a whopping 22 years after the original – we're just as gobsmacked at how time has flown. ‌ This sequel to the 2003 comedy classic Freaky Friday, sees Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis reprising their roles as mother-daughter pair Anna and Tess. ‌ Just like the first film, the follow-up centres on family members who mysteriously switch bodies. But this time around, Anna's teenage daughter Harper (played by Julia Butters) and her soon-to-be stepsister Lily (portrayed by Sophia Hammons) are also caught up in the chaos. ‌ However, amidst the supernatural body-swapping antics, there are several nods to other films that fans might overlook during their initial watch. Here are two standout Easter eggs, explained. Mean Girls Easter egg First off, Mean Girls. The 2004 comedy showcases one of Lohan's most memorable performances to date, and continues to be a significant part of pop culture, reports the Mirror US. ‌ Early on in Freakier Friday, we meet Anna's new beau Eric, played by Manny Jacinto. She bumps into the British single dad at Harper's school and they swiftly fall head over heels for each other. The film then whisks us through their love story in a quick montage that depicts various stages of their relationship. At the end of the scene, it's unveiled that they're engaged and their wedding is set for October 3rd. Lohan's character doesn't say the date, but it's highlighted on her calendar, so you could easily miss it. ‌ Fans of Mean Girls will recognise that October 3rd held special significance for Lohan's 2000s character Cady Heron. Soon after beginning secondary school, Cady falls for classmate Aaron Samuels (Jonathan Bennett). ‌ During a memorable moment from the noughties film, she reflects on an encounter with Aaron. "On October 3rd, he asked me what day it was," Cady reveals in voiceover. The sequence then unfolds, showing her responding: "It's October 3rd." This date subsequently became a cultural touchstone amongst supporters and is now commemorated each year as 'Mean Girls Day'. ‌ While Lohan has moved beyond Cady, Freakier Friday still acknowledges the actress' legendary role. The Parent Trap parallels The most obvious The Parent Trap reference is the cameo from Elaine Hendrix, who portrayed Lohan's would-be stepmother Meredith Blake in the 1998 family film. ‌ In Freakier Friday, Hendrix appears as magazine editor Blake Kale, collaborating with Anna's pop star client. Yet the movie seems to further reference The Parent Trap through its plot, though this connection is admittedly more tenuous. The late nineties picture centres on twins Hallie and Annie (both portrayed by Lohan) who become separated following their parents' split, before discovering each other at summer camp. ‌ The siblings subsequently devise a scheme to reconcile their parents and repair their family. They swap identities after camp, with one travelling to London with their mother whilst the other journeys to California with their father. ‌ While they're busy plotting to rekindle their parents' love, their dad, portrayed by Dennis Quaid, is on the brink of tying the knot with his new flame, Meredith. The recurring theme of blended families and the switcheroo plot are also key elements in Freakier Friday. Moreover, the 2025 film showcases two youngsters secretly scheming to derail their parents' relationships. In The Parent Trap, Annie and Hallie are on a mission to split Meredith and their dad, Nick. On the other hand, Freakier Friday has Harper and Lily on a quest to wreck Anna and Eric's relationship.

Elizabeth Hurley reveals bond with Billy Ray Cyrus' daughters after summer break

Elizabeth Hurley has opened up about her budding relationship with Billy Ray Cyrus and spending time with his daughters, months after their romance was confirmed. The news that the couple were dating first came to light in April after a photo of them kissing was shared on social media over Easter weekend. Since then, Elizabeth, 60, and Billy Ray, 63, have looked increasingly loved-up, with the former revealing she's 'in love' as she celebrated her milestone birthday. Last night, they both attended the premiere of Channel 4's upcoming gameshow The Inheritance, where Metro had the chance to speak to the Gossip Girl star. 'I was thrilled that he could come here with me,' Elizabeth told us after posing with Billy Ray for photographers. The actress, who plays 'The Deceased' in The Inheritance, shared that she's recently spent quality time with her partner's daughters Miley Cyrus and Noah Cyrus, as they were both performing in London. 'We've had most of the summer off. We've seen both his daughters play in London, ironically, which is great, and we spent a lot of time with my son,' she said, referring to her son Damian Hurley. 'But this is actually the first business thing he's come to with me, and it's been great to have him here. Really nice.' At last night's premiere for The Inheritance, Elizabeth struck a contrast with Billy Ray on the red carpet, opting for a crimson dress while he wore an all-black ensemble. A week ago, she shared a post on Instagram comparing two tortoises that they found while hanging out in Tennessee and Herefordshire, as they travel between the US and the UK during their relationship. In May this year, Elizabeth told E! News how 'unexpected' their romance had been, stating: 'But we're very happy together. And hopefully we'll have a great life.' They originally met on the set of the 2022 film Christmas in Paradise, which also starred Kelsey Grammer, Nathalie Cox and Naomi Ferderick. 'We did very few scenes together but the couple times we were in the same scene there was a chemistry there,' Billy Ray told The Ty Bentli Show on Apple Music in April. 'We just laughed, and it was at a time I wasn't laughing a lot.' The country music star added that while he acknowledged how 'different' they were, they also found that they 'had way more in common than we had different'. In June, Elizabeth posted a picture on Instagram of her son Damian, 23, and Billy Ray's daughter Miley, 32, at the London premiere of the latter's film Something Beautiful, writing in her caption: 'The babies are all grown up ❤️.' Earlier that month, Billy Ray described Elizabeth as 'the love of my love' when he posted on Instagram in honour of her 60th birthday. More Trending Elizabeth has one child, Damian, who she shares with businessman Steve Bing. She was married to businessman Arun Nayar from 2007 until 2010, and previously had high-profile relationships with Hugh Grant and the late Shane Warne. Billy Ray has six children, including Christopher Cyrus, who he shares with Kristin Luckey. The musician and Tish Finley (now Cyrus-Purcell) share daughters Miley and Noah together, as well as a son called Braison. Billy Ray also adopted Tish's children from a previous relationship, Brandi Cyrus and Trace Cyrus. Got a story?
