Julie Goodwin breaks silence on dramatic weight loss after fans voiced fears for her health

7NEWS11-07-2025
Julie Goodwin has broken her silence about her dramatic weight loss, reassuring fans she is healthy and venting her frustration at other people making remarks about her body.
Goodwin has been the subject of concern for months from fans, after debuting somewhat of a body transformation earlier this year.
Just days ago, Goodwin shared a photo of herself beaming with a wide smile as she prepared a budget-friendly winter dessert.
The photo saw a number of fans asking about her body transformation.
'I'm actually concerned and shocked to be honest but if you're healthy and well there is nothing to worry about. Am I correct?' one fan wrote.
Other fans fumed with the commentary, saying followers needed to mind their own business.
'Hey guys, this post is about cooking and a recipe, how about we keep our opinions that don't relate to this to our self. There's enough sadness in the world, so let's all learn to be kind to another or say nothing at all,' one fan wrote.
'Can't believe we are in 2025 and still commenting on peoples bodies,' another added.
'Ew ... Commenting on peoples bodies in 2024,' yet another wrote.
Goodwin took to Instagram overnight, reassuring fans.
'Thanks to all who have expressed concern about my health. I am well and I am within the healthy weight range. My doctor concurs,' Goodwin wrote on Instagram.
'For those who have asked me for tips, I am not qualified to provide this. It's advice which should be sought from your trusted health professionals, not from me. I'm a TV cook.'
Goodwin asked respectfully that fans stop commenting on her body.
'For those who want to comment on my shape and condition of my body please, do it on your own page because I'm tried of reading it. For that reason, I'll be turning off comments on this post,' Goodwin added.
'For those who like to see the food I make and occasional other bits and pieces from my days, please stick around cause that's what I'll be posting.
'For all of us can we please, find something more interesting to talk about. Can we please model kindness to our kids and grandkids and can we please leave this obsession with people's looks back in the 1980s.
'Peace and leave.'
In the past few years, Goodwin has spoken about her weight.
Back in 2016, Julie revealed that her dramatic weight loss had nothing to do with dieting.
Instead, she was just a busy business owner, running around filling orders.
'It's not that I've gone on some stupid, sad diet and dropped a whole heap of weight in a hurry,' Goodwin told Women's Weekly.
'It's not anything like that.
'I am running a business and running around like a mad thing, and sometimes I forget to eat, none of which is healthy.'

Golden Globes host's epic tribute to Perth after live show

Comedian Nikki Glaser is known for her devastating roasts on Hollywood's elite, but the touring star had only kind words to say about Perth as she departed the State following her Friday night show at Perth HPC. Gaining a new legion of fans after hosting the Golden Globes in January, the 41-year-old American brought her popular Alive & Unwell tour to Australia earlier this month. Sharing her favourite moments to Instagram from the back end of her tour, Glaser celebrated her brief WA stay by rocking a 'Perth' embossed red T-shirt and cork hat as she embraced Aussie culture. 'Brisbane! Adelaide! Perth! You gave me the biggest crowds and some of the very best shows of my life. I don't know what I'm going to do with these Vegemite and mushroom lady jokes now,' she told fans. 'Thank you for making me feel so welcome in your incredible country. And turns out, I look stunning in a cork hat? I'm already figuring out when I can come back. I love you!' Nikki Glaser enjoyed her time in Perth as she toured Australia. Credit: Nikki Glaser/IG / IG Glaser has made a habit of donning merch emblazoned with her local crowd's location, as seen in Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, and Adelaide. However, the comic's deviation from her signature low-cut dresses was not Glaser's only attempt to ingratiate herself with locals. Audiences expressed their appreciation at hearing Daryl Braithwaite's iconic Horses anthem ringing out at her shows. 'Nikki Glaser becoming a Braithmate was not on my 2025 bingo card!' one fan said. Another declared, 'it was the most fun show ever!' after seeing the sharp-witted comic in Perth. If you'd like to view this content, please adjust your .

Glaser has enjoyed a near 20-year stand-up career, but arguably broke into the upper echelon of TV comics in 2024 following her viral Tom Brady Roast performance. The crowd-pleaser followed that up with her HBO comedy special Someday You'll Die later in the year, earning her first Emmy nomination. And the star's rise and rise has not yet reached its ceiling, with Glaser confirmed to be reprising her role as host of the Golden Globes in 2026.

Ed Sheeran's disturbing truth about life in the spotlight

Singer Ed Sheeran has revealed how his extreme stardom continues to put his family in danger. The global superstar, who recently announced his 2026 Australian tour, revealed on Sunday that he's been forced to employ extensive security measures to protect his children from extreme fans. Sheeran shares daughter Lyra, four, and Jupiter, three, with Cherry Seaborn. 'It's things that people don't really even take into account,' Sheeran told 60 Minutes. 'Like kidnap threats and s**t like that. We've had attempted break-ins, things left on my car. 'It's way more sinister than just fans turning up and wanting selfies.' Ed Sheeran arriving in Perth. Credit: Ian Munro / The West Australian Sheeran is fiercely protective of his daughters and does not allow fans to take photos of them. 'I've had some real arguments before,' he said. 'I'm fine with taking pictures, but I just think it's weird with a four-year-old and a three-year-old.' But Sheeran accepts: 'To be within the public sphere, you have to take it all, the good and the bad.' 'We have a level of security that probably won't change until I pass away. That's just our life now.' The English singer-songwriter returns to Perth for the first Aussie leg of his Loop Tour in January 2026, marking his first national performances since 2023. Announcing 11 shows across Australia and New Zealand in the summer, the four-time Grammy winner will touch down in WA for a singular Optus Stadium performance on January 31. He will then head east for two shows in each of Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne, before concluding the all-new tour with a one-off performance in Adelaide on March 5. Ed Sheeran performs in Wellington Credit: Zakary Walters/Ed Sheeran / Instagram Sheeran's forthcoming project Play — his eighth studio album — is due for release on September 12, with tracks Old Phone, Azizam and Sapphire already released. The album signals the conclusion of his three-year, 168-show Mathematics Tour that breached Aussie shores in 2023. 'Starting a brand new tour next year called the LOOP tour. New stage, new tricks, new set up, new songs and all the classics added in,' Sheeran told fans upon the tour announcement. Sheeran has impressively sold in excess of 2.5 million tickets in his previous jaunts through Australia and New Zealand. General sale tickets will begin from 3pm WST July 29, with pre-sale for Telstra and Frontier members staggered from July 25.

Tom Cruise's rumoured new girlfriend Ana de Armas takes aim at his ex Nicole Kidman by liking post mocking Aussie film star's appearance

Tom Cruise's rumoured new girlfriend has taken aim at his ex-wife Nicole Kidman by liking a post mocking the Australian film star. Cuban-American actress Ana de Armas, 37, and 63-year-old Cruise are thought to be in a relationship after they were recently spotted together numerous times at different romantic locations across the globe. De Armas took to Instagram to heart Celeb Mess' post of Kidman, which showed her face up close with the caption: "When you keep it real". The photo was reposted on Reddit, where fans of Kidman, 58, took to the comments to lash out at the War Dogs actress for shading their idol. "Lol let's see what she looks like at almost 60," one person said of her. Another person said it fascinates them when "people in their 20s and 30s are rude about people aging." "Like, where do you think you're headed? And do you know what the alternative to aging is?" they said. A third person hit out at de Armas for dating a "senior Tom Cruise", adding, "but sure Ana, you're the winner here lmao." "Having a one-sided internet beef with your boyfriend's wife from 20 years ago, this openly is just absurd lol," another person said. One more Nicole fan championed the Aussie's decades-long acting career, which has endured throughout her youth and more recently. "Looks fade, talent doesn't. Nicole's had a 40-year career. Let's see where Ana's is in 10," the Reddit user said. "Nicole Kidman has more talent, beauty, and grace than she ever will have." The furore comes after de Armas and Cruise touched down in London together on Friday after being spotted enjoying a leisurely escape aboard a yacht docked off the Spanish island of Menorca in June. Both stars cut a casual figure as they disembarked a helicopter, with Cruise wearing a T-shirt and jeans while his rumoured beau donned leggings and a sweatshirt with her dogs Elvis and Sasha in tow. The two appear to have been getting cosy, spending the days leading up to Valentine's Day and the actress's birthday in April together. Cruise and de Armas ignited romance rumours in February, when they were spotted strolling together in London. The actress subsequently said it occurred as the two were engaged in business talks with filmmakers Christopher McQuarrie and Doug Liman. And they are set to star in Liman's upcoming film Deeper, which sees Cruise star as a disgraced astronaut on a perilous deep-sea mission. Nevertheless, they are yet to confirm anything more than a friendship. In June, Ana said she was "really happy and proud" to have Cruise championing her film, Ballerina, after he paid her a compliment. The Chruch of Scientology believer said the John Wick spin-off "kicked ass." 'There's an actress that has dramatic chops, someone who's comedic, very, very talented," he said in May, adding: "Just a great actress."
