‘Tough love': Brutal truth about Candice Warner's marriage with David Warner
Candice Warner has opened up about her decade-long marriage to cricketer David Warner, saying what they have been through as a couple has 'made us even stronger'.
In a new interview with the Stellar podcast, Something To Talk About, Candice, 40, said she was 'incredibly proud of where we're at in life, where our kids are at and the parents
that we've become'.
'Our relationship is very strong, but it always has been. Certain situations that we have overcome together have made us even stronger,' she told Something To Talk About.
'We look at our kids and we see them as our biggest achievements,' she added speaking about the couple's three daughters, Ivy, 10, Indi, 9, and Isla, 5.
'We're really proud of how far we've come and that we just didn't give up along the way.'
In the interview with Stellar, Candice explained her and David's decision to launch and manage an Instagram account for their girls (via @thewarner.sisters) at a time when children's relationship with social media is such a hot button issue.
Amassing almost 200,000 followers already, she also reveals how the couple are navigating the harms of social media with their daughters in the digital age … and how they're building resilience in them.

'I don't care what people say about me, about my husband, about us as a family, because
it's their opinion. It's not fact. They don't know us,' Candice told Something To Talk About.
'I'm not here to defend their page. And, I truly believe what [Prime Minister] Anthony Albanese is doing is the right thing to protect young adults from something that can be very dangerous.'
'But we also have an obligation as a parent, most parents have social media, to teach our kids how to use it in a positive way.
'It's wonderful if we know how to use it correctly and if we can empower people or we
can educate people or we could make people smile or laugh.'
Candice said she had prepared herself to hear unsolicited opinions about their decision to launch their Instagram.

'The best way to teach resilience is to not wrap your kids in cotton wool.
'A bit of tough love. How can you teach resilience if they've never failed? How can you tell your kids to get back up when they've never fallen?
'We love our kids and we support them but we also need to let them learn for themselves sometimes.'

Waleed Aly's ‘emotional' reaction to Channel 10 axing The Project revealed
Carrie Bickmore has described her former The Project co-host Waleed Aly's 'emotional' response to Channel 10's decsion to axe the long running show. Channel 10 officially announced on Monday that the news and current affairs show is coming to an end after 16 years on air. Hosts including Sarah Harris and Waleed Aly later addressed the news during an awkward segment on the show that night. Speaking about the cancellation on her radio show, The Hit Network's Carrie & Tommy, on Tuesday, Bickmore revealed that she'd been in contact with Aly following the news going public. She shared that she had never seen him 'so emotional' in all the time they've known each other. 'I spoke to Waleed yesterday and I don't think I've ever heard him that emotional,' Bickmore said. 'He was so emotional about it. To Sarah, Sam, and Georgie, all the four hosts that have been on that desk. It's live. It was happening every night on air. It's never nice to find out your show is no longer, and I think there'll be a lot of people that miss having the company of those people on the screen.' Bickmore went on to share her own feelings about Channel 10's decision to axe the show, confessing that she feels 'sad' about its fate. 'I feel sad,' she continued. 'I don't want people to feel alone – and that's the power of TV and free-to-air TV. It's a thing that's dying. But we should be proud, 16 years of a live six-night-a-week TV show is phenomenal. I'm thinking of everyone there today. 'I've made so many friends on that show, and I'm thinking of them all today. Many of them are still there and had to hear the news yesterday that they don't have a job anymore. If you are looking for people to employ in this industry, they are some of the most talented people you will find. Their ability to pivot and cover light and shade and be on top of the news, finding a completely different angle is a certain suite of skill sets not a lot of people have,' she added. 'They're just bloody awesome people.'
