Daily Mail​18 hours ago

Brittany Hockley and her newly minted husband Benjamin Siegrist have returned to Sydney after tying in knot in Bali.
While her wedding may be over, Brittany won't forget in a hurry, with the former Bachelor star's finger festooned with an array of rings.
The brunette was spotted showing off her bling as the couple strolled hand-in-hand through the streets of Bondi on Tuesday.
She wore the stunning diamond sparkler Benjamin, 33, got down on bended knee with when he popped the question in June last year.
She also sported two wedding rings created for her big day - a plain 18k gold band and another gold band encrusted with brilliant white diamonds.

Meanwhile Benjamin, also went for the 'bling' approach for his wedding band, with the goalkeeper now wearing a 14k yellow gold band with infinity pavé diamonds.
All three wedding rings were created by Brittany's best friend and Life Uncut podcast co-host Laura Byrne's jewellery line, ToniMay.
Brittany cut a casual figure in a puffy sleeveless jacket that she wore over a white long-sleeve zip-up top.
She matched this with a pair of form-fitting navy blue leggings which she had tucked into a pair of white socks.
Accessorising with a pair of almond-shaped sunglasses, Brittany finished her ensemble with a pair of white sneakers.
Husband Benjamin cut an equally casual figure, putting on a leggy display in a pair of navy blue shorts.
He also wore a Lorna Jane zip-up jacket that featured a trio of blue strips running along the shoulders and sleeves.
He finished his look with a navy blue Atlanta braves baseball cap.
Benjamin was also in charge of Brittany's faithful pooch Delilah for the outing.
After picking up some bakery items, the couple were seen happily chatting as they enjoyed the start of their new life together.
Brittany and Ben wed in a romantic ceremony in Bali on Wednesday last week.
The wedding took place at Pandawa Cliff Estate, which promises a 'dramatic and romantic clifftop setting overlooking the Indian Ocean' and stunning views of Bali's Bukit Peninsula.
Brittany was ever the blushing bride on her big day, walking down the aisle in a strapless dress by Steven Khalil which featured a lace corset with dramatic long train.
The couple gave followers a glimpse into the nuptials, sharing a duo of loved-up snaps from the big day to Instagram.
One showed Ben romantically embracing his new bride as he leaned in for a newlywed kiss.
The second showed the happy couple beaming as they held hands and hugged each other close.
'From the very first day, it was you,' Brittany captioned the images.
'Across any ocean, it is you. For the rest of our lives, it will always be you. Mr and Mrs Siegrist 4.6.2025,' she added, augmenting the sentiment with love heart emojis.
Brittany and her beau appeared on her podcast Life Uncut in June last year to discuss details about her stunning giant diamond ring.
Ben revealed he had the ring sourced and made in Dubai and it features a hidden halo under the diamond in a pavé setting.
He also explained the diamond is lab-grown, which is more cost-effective and ethically sourced compared to natural diamonds.
'Whenever Ben and I had spoken about [engagement], I had said the two things I want: I want yellow gold. And the other thing, I always wanted a lab-grown diamond,' Brittany said.
Ben didn't really know about it then, but he was like, "Don't you want a real diamond?" And I said, "It's identical. It's exactly the same, except ethically-sourced".'
The cost of a lab grown diamond is around 40 to 50 per cent less than an earth-mined diamond, though it is still a real diamond.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen shows off new ring following marriage to actor Hailee Steinfeld

Josh Allen 's broad grin was familiar. The wedding band on the quarterback's ring finger was brand new. As much as Allen hoped to talk about the Buffalo Bills on Tuesday, the newlywed couldn't escape questions about his headline-grabbing marriage to actor/singer Hailee Steinfeld in Southern California on May 31. 'We're back to football,' he said, before pointing to his ring finger. 'Got some hardware now. So, good to go.' Allen was otherwise short on details as part of his longstanding bid to maintain a semblance of privacy, even though pictures from the outdoor wedding were posted on social media mere minutes after the couple exchanged 'I do's.' There were pictures of Steinfeld wearing a strapless white gown walking down the aisle, the couple sharing a kiss, and Allen, in a black tuxedo, posing with friends and Bills teammates. It wasn't until being asked about what the past four months have meant to him — in which Allen was named NFL MVP in February, signed one of the league's richest contracts in March and got married in May — that Allen finally opened up. He called Steinfeld his best friend, and said she makes everything easier. 'That was the most important decision I'll make in my life and I made the right one,' Allen said. Western New York and the NFL have a new power couple, both of whom happen to be from California and began dating two years ago. There's the 29-year-old Allen, who in seven seasons has set most of the Bills scoring and passing records. His star has continued to rise while he has transformed the Bills into an AFC power, also building his profile through various national commercials. And then there's Steinfeld, 28, who first gained fame by earning an Oscar nomination for best supporting actress for her role as Mattie Ross in the Coen brothers' 2010 remake of 'True Grit.' She has since enjoyed numerous starring roles, most recently in the movie 'Sinners,' while also branching out into music. Amid the buzz, Allen brought the focus back to football as Buffalo opened a three-day mandatory set of practices. The quarterback skipped the team's voluntary sessions last week. Aside from taking his familiar spot leading the offense on the field, Allen spent time after practice being filmed to measure his footwork and mechanics. It's something Allen does several times a year to ensure he's not picking up bad habits. 'Making sure we're staying on top of those things and if there's something that we need to tweak for the better, we are going to try to do it,' he said. The same could be said of Allen's unflinching approach to dealing with the spotlight. Coach Sean McDermott credits the quarterback for staying true to himself. 'What I've seen is this truly genuine, authentic person who, yes, is in the limelight, yes, is one of the top players in our league, and maybe the top player in the NFL,' McDermott said. 'But he is so authentic, so down-to-earth, so relatable. I think that's really the connection and the cool piece about Josh is because he is who he is.' And yes, McDermott was among those in attendance at the wedding. 'I was very grateful to be there, No. 1,' McDermott said. 'Two, it was what you would expect of a wedding. Just great to see, and two really special families coming together.' ___

What does the winter solstice mean for your star sign? Aussies are set for a season of 'tug-of-war' - from financial woes and romance to family feuds

An astrologer has revealed what the coming month has in store for your star sign amid the winter solstice as the shortest, darkest days of the year arrives in Australia. Rose Smith, a leading spiritual advisor and founder of psychic network Absolute Soul Secrets, said Wednesday's Full Moon (June 11) could spark a powerful surge of adventure, emotional release and personal clarity - but not without a call to slow down and look inward. 'June's Full Moon is about expansion, movement and adventure - it's that "live life large" feeling,' Ms Smith told FEMAIL. 'But with the Winter Solstice approaching, we're also being asked to slow down, rest and reflect. It's a real tug-of-war between external excitement and internal nurturing.' In astrology, Sagittarius is known as the zodiac's explorer, governing travel, higher learning, spirituality, and big-picture thinking. So if you suddenly feel like booking a spontaneous holiday, starting a new course, or finally chasing that long-held dream, you're not alone. 'People could feel an urge to take risks, explore deeper meaning, or act on a vision they've been sitting on for ages. Full Moons are always emotional, and with Sagittarius involved, it's like emotional fireworks,' Ms Smith said. 'You might be craving wide open spaces or the buzz of a crowd - or both. Sagittarius doesn't do anything by halves.' The influence of Jupiter, Sagittarius's ruling planet, adds fuel to the fire. Known in astrology as a symbol of luck, wisdom and expansion, Jupiter's energy is believed to amplify whatever it touches. 'Jupiter is like a cosmic guardian - even scientists say it protects Earth by pulling in space debris. So, this Full Moon could feel quite fortunate. You might find yourself drawn to unconventional experiences or different cultures, or diving into spiritual study,' Ms Smith said. And while in the northern hemisphere this is called the Strawberry Moon, named by Native American tribes to mark the strawberry harvest, its meaning runs deeper. 'Spiritually, it symbolises sweetness, abundance, and celebrating the fruits of your labour.' But there's another cosmic shift worth noting - Jupiter has just moved into Cancer, where it'll stay until mid-2026. This brings a more emotional, home-oriented influence, which may guide people toward more personal or family-based growth. 'Some of the adventure or wisdom people are chasing could actually be found closer to home. Cancer is all about nurturing, family and emotional security. So we might start to find joy in smaller moments - like cooking, connecting with loved ones, or creating cosiness in our homes.' The catch? Sagittarius energy wants to sprint while Cancer and the Winter Solstice ask us to slow down. 'Winter Solstice is the darkest and shortest day of the year. It's nature's reminder to rest, eat warm food like soups and stews, and catch up on sleep. But Sagittarius wants us to go, go, go - so you could feel a bit conflicted.' Ms Smith's advice is to feed your mind, but care for your body. 'Watch travel documentaries, have deep conversations, or plan your next big move - but also allow space for rest and reflection.' People with Mutable signs (Sagittarius, Gemini, Virgo, and Pisces) may feel this Full Moon most intensely, while Earth signs like Taurus and Capricorn may find comfort in slowing down and grounding themselves. 'There's a need to work with the seasons, not against them. Let the Sagittarius energy expand your mind, but listen to Cancer's wisdom too. Find joy in stillness, laughter in the quiet - and remember, even in the darkest season, the light is returning,' she said. Aries (March 21 to April 19) Your mind is abuzz with new ideas relating to how you can expand your horizons. Perhaps it's through education, spirituality or maybe even a trip (more likely long-distance). You're bound to be drawn to the exotic or unconventional, believing that 'variety is the spice of life'. However, you may also experience being in two minds as there's a distinct pull to the security and stability that you already know. This push-pull effect is likely to leave you feeling somewhat restless, especially with the hum drum of daily communications, ideas and the familiarity of the people around you. Try to be patient now but do add more variety and excitement to your life. Perhaps you can plan a trip for the future, or maybe a short break sooner rather than later. Taurus (April 20 to May 20) You're being called to look deep into your values and personal finances, especially around shared money or resources. Old fears or hidden tensions about trust and control might surface, pushing you to confront what's really going on beneath the surface. This could challenge how secure you feel about your financial stability and what you truly value. Emotional intensity is high, and you may need to face uncomfortable truths about money, partnerships, or commitments. It's a time to be honest and courageous, even if that means rethinking long-held beliefs about security. Transformation is the theme – not quick fixes – so trust the process and let go of what no longer serves you. Gemini (May 21 to June 20) This Full Moon stirs up some honest conversations in your close relationships. You might feel torn between wanting your own space and needing to keep peace with others. It's a time when hidden tensions could bubble up, especially if you've been avoiding difficult talks. You could be surprised by blunt truths about a partner, friend, or business connection that shake up your sense of security. Try to communicate clearly and calmly, saying what you need without blame, while really listening to the other side. It's about understanding, not winning. Make space for your own needs but stay open to theirs. This is about resetting expectations, so your relationships feel more authentic and balanced. Cancer (June 21 to July 22) You might be feeling stretched thin with a clear call to sort out what truly matters in your daily life. It's time to clear away not just physical clutter but also mental and emotional baggage that's been weighing you down. Your usual routines may feel stale or overwhelming and hidden stress or health issues could come to the surface, demanding your attention. This is a chance to be honest about how you're caring for yourself and where you might be burning energy unnecessarily. Instead of pushing through, get some self-care, even if that means letting others down temporarily. Clearing space inside and out will help you reconnect with your strength and motivation. It might feel uncomfortable, but it's a vital step for your wellbeing and growth. Leo (July 23 to August 22) You're feeling the call to have fun with a strong urge to dive into creative projects, romance or playful connections. Get your skates on - it's time to enjoy yourself and express what makes you happy! However, there's also a tug reminding you not to lose sight of responsibilities or important conversations you might be avoiding. Friends and social groups could play a big part in this push-pull. While indulging your passions, keep an eye on what really needs your attention. If something in love or creativity feels stuck, you might need to decide whether to release it or renew your commitment. Trust your gut, but take a breath before jumping in. Being authentic in sharing your joy will naturally attract the right people. Enjoy the ride but don't ignore what's beneath the surface. Virgo (August 23 to September 22) There's possible tension between your home life and career demands, as something at home needs your attention. Family issues, living arrangements or old emotional patterns might be bubbling up. Maybe you feel vulnerable or unsettled beneath the surface? You could be feeling the pressure to keep things looking okay outwardly while inside, things feel shaky. This Full Moon invites you to honestly face what's going on with your emotional roots, even if it's uncomfortable. Avoiding it will only make the disconnect worse. Take time to reflect and have those honest chats with loved ones, but don't feel like you have to fix everything right now. Setting clear boundaries and focusing on self-care will help restore balance. Your home and emotional foundation are key to building your overall wellbeing and peace. Libra (September 23 to October 22) This Full Moon shines on your local connections and communication, so now it's time to decide between speaking your truth and keeping the peace. Decisions – not one of Libran's favourite pastimes! You might feel like being honest and bold, but there's a real risk of clashes or misunderstandings with siblings, neighbours or close friends. It's a balancing act between freedom of expression and diplomacy. Hidden truths might surface, shifting how you relate to those around you. However, it's also possible you might also feel the urge to get away for a breather or trip. The key now is to listen carefully and communicate thoughtfully. Stand your ground, but don't push others to agree. Being curious and empathetic can turn tense moments into breakthroughs. Patience and grace will get you through tricky conversations and help you come out stronger on the other side. Scorpio (October 23 to November 21) A light is shining upon your finances, values and self-worth, bringing up tensions between what you truly value and how you handle money or possessions. You might find yourself rethinking what 'enough' really means, not just in dollars but emotionally too. Maybe you've been holding onto security in ways that aren't serving you anymore or underestimating your own worth. This is a time to take stock honestly. Look at your spending, habits and emotional investments. Balance practical needs with your deeper beliefs and set intentions that align your resources with your true priorities. Your value isn't just what you own or earn. It's inherent and worth protecting fiercely. Now you can clear out what's draining you and build a stronger foundation for your future growth. Sagittarius (November 22 to December 21) With the Full Moon in your sign, you're spotlighted like never before. You could be on fire to express your true self, however is there a pull between chasing freedom and meeting others' expectations? You might feel restless, ready to shed old roles or patterns that don't fit anymore. It's your moment to clarify what really matters to you and set firm boundaries around your time and energy. Saying no might be hard, but it's harder to lose your authenticity! Reflect honestly on what excites you versus what drains you, then adjust accordingly. Standing your ground might be uncomfortable, but it's essential for growth. When you balance your bold individuality with practical sense, you open the door to fresh freedom and deeper fulfillment. Capricorn (December 22nd to January 19) You could be feeling a strong need to slow down and tune into your inner world, even though your usual drive pushes you to keep going. Hidden emotions or old stresses might surface, making you more sensitive than usual about how you show up in the world. Maybe you need to practice self-compassion and give yourself permission to rest instead of constantly pushing forward? Quiet reflection - whether through journaling, meditation or just sitting with your feelings, can help you process what's been under the surface. Healing won't happen overnight, so be patient and gentle with yourself. If things feel overwhelming, don't hesitate to reach out for support. Balancing your ambition with emotional care now will help you come back stronger and clearer, ready to move forward with renewed energy. Aquarius (January 20th to February 18) You might feel torn between what you want personally and what your social circles expect from you. Friendships and group connections could be under the microscope, revealing which relationships truly support your growth and which might be holding you back. It's a time to face some honest truths about where you belong and who deserves space in your life. Setting boundaries is important now - even if it feels uncomfortable! Maybe having some frank conversations can help align your social life with your authentic self? So don't lose sight of your own creative needs while navigating social demands. When you stand firm in who you are, you'll attract the kind of connections that truly lift you up. Pisces (February 19 to March 20) You might feel pulled between your career goals and the need for emotional security at home. It's a tough balancing act between striving for success and wanting the comfort and privacy of home. Family issues or past emotional wounds may come up just as work pressures increase, making it hard to focus on one without the other. This is a chance to reflect on how your professional life affects your personal wellbeing and whether your current path truly fits your values. Setting boundaries is key to protect your peace. Let go of outdated expectations - your or others. Consider getting support from trusted friends or mentors. When you honour both your ambitions and your emotional needs, you can create a path that feels healthier and fulfilling. The Sagittarius Full Moon peaks on Wednesday, June 11 at 5:43pm AEST, while the Winter Solstice arrives ten days later, on Friday, June 21 at 12:41pm AEST.
