Derek Hough, from Dancing With The Stars, expecting first child
Bindi Irwin's Dancing With The Stars partner has announced he is expecting his first child. Professional dancer Derek Hough, 40, announced earlier this week that his wife Hayley Erbert Hough was pregnant in a video on Instagram. 'We can't believe the biggest thing to happen to us could be so small,' the caption read. In another post showing the couple holding ultrasound pictures, Derek said: 'Already so loved'. Hough won Dancing With The Stars alongside celebrity partner Bindi Irwin in 2015. Irwin congratulated the pair on their exciting news. 'Congratulations!!!!! Hugs from our entire family,' she said. Following in his sister's footsteps, Robert Irwin announced in April that he would also be putting on his dancing shoes and joining the show. 'Bindi, thank you for inspiring me to take on this next adventure. Dancing With The Stars, I'm so grateful for the life-changing experience ahead,' he said at the time. Hough was on Dancing With The Stars from 2007 to 2016, winning the show six times with his partners. His sister is actor and dancer Julianne Hough, who also appeared on the TV show for five seasons.

Why Bindi Irwin Has Been So Honest About Her Endometriosis Journey
Originally appeared on E! Online Bindi Irwin named her daughter Grace Warrior, knowing from personal experience that some of life's challenges may require every last ounce of fighting spirit to overcome. The Australian conservationist, who shares the 4-year-old with husband Chandler Powell, suffered in silence for more than a decade before undergoing surgery in 2023 to treat endometriosis, a condition in which uterine lining tissue grows outside of the uterus. "Doctor after doctor would say, 'Hey, it's just part of being a woman, there's really nothing wrong with you,'" Bindi recalled on a February episode of the A Life of Greatness With Sarah Grynberg podcast. "I was just getting more and more unwell, and it affects so many different parts of your life." She was still nervous about sharing such a personal story with millions of people. But once Bindi, who's celebrating her 27th birthday July 24, detailed her experience, the daughter of late Crocodile Hunter star Steve Irwin didn't regret it. More from E!

News in May. 'Women have to choose their support system—whether it's your family or your chosen family, your friends—you have to find people that are going to keep lifting you up, because it's a very lonely disease as well." Only her mom Terri Irwin, brother Robert Irwin and her husband knew what she had been going through before she broke her silence in March 2023. And no one guessed that the perpetually beaming Bindi—who even as a child conducted herself with utmost poise after losing her dad—had been hurting so badly. "You can show up and have a big rain cloud sitting over you," she told Sarah Grynberg. "That's not a great way to live. You can choose to show up for yourself and for everybody else in a more positive way." Yet her self-described "glass-half-full" approach only went so far when crippling physical pain was involved. "Behind closed doors," she continued, "I was struggling to do anything and everything. It resulted in a lot of canceled plans. I think people must have thought I was incredibly flaky." When she finally underwent surgery in the U.S. two years ago, her medical team found 37 lesions and an ovarian cyst filled with old menstrual blood. "If I hadn't gotten surgery," Bindi said, "the next five years of my life would have been very make-or-break, because I was having real problems internally." But though she certainly felt validated after years of life-interrupting fatigue, nausea and pain, her journey wasn't over, endometriosis having no cure. In May, hours after calling her condition a "lonely disease," in fact, Bindi underwent emergency surgery to have her appendix removed, and doctors found another 14 lesions, as well as repaired a hernia that stemmed from Grace's birth in 2021. Which made Bindi more determined than ever to keep it real in hopes that grinning and bearing it will become a thing of the past. "The reason I share my health journey is because more girls and women desperately need answers to their undiagnosed pain," she wrote on Instagram two weeks after the procedures. "This disease is crippling and can make you feel incredibly isolated." "We need to raise awareness and change the narrative for women's health," she continued. "I see you, your pain is real, and you deserve answers and genuine health care." Whatever the cause, Bindi throws herself into it, her boundless enthusiasm reminiscent of her dad, who died in 2006 when she was only 8. "He was always on the go, he never stopped," Bindi told Los Angeles' KTLA of her father in 2016. "I think I inherited his lack of patience, because if he had something on his mind he just had to do it right now." But it wasn't until her daughter was born that Bindi really went to bat for herself and called B.S. on the whole "this is all just part of being a woman" explanation for her pain. "I went, 'I have to do something,'" she recalled on A Life of Greatness. "This can't just all be in my head." Not to mention, she needed every drop of energy possible to care for the most important two-legged creature in her life. "Once you have a child," she explained, "your whole existence becomes trying to care for them. When I was so sick, it was hard to do. So then I found help and I'm so grateful to be on the other side of surgery."

Jackie 'O' Henderson reveals the sad truth behind what started her painkiller addiction - and why most women will understand
Jackie 'O' Henderson has opened up about the sad truth as to what started her painkiller addiction, for which she checked into a rehabilitation centre in 2022. The radio queen, 50, was chatting to KIIS FM's Dr Sam Hay about the nature of addiction and told Kyle & Jackie O listeners she began taking painkillers to help cope with a problem that many women experience. 'I got addicted because I got prescribed Endone. I was prescribed for a true pain that I was experiencing because I was going to the hospital every month with my endometriosis,' Jackie began. Endometriosis is a painful condition affecting many women, where tissue similar to the womb lining grows in other parts of the body, often causing cramps, fatigue and fertility issues. Several other celebrities have gone public with their endometriosis battle, including Bindi Irwin. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Jackie added she was prescribed the powerful painkiller Endone - another name for Oxycodone - to help manage the issue but soon became dependent on it. 'It just got so out of control, I had to go to the hospital to get morphine. And then so they prescribed the Endone as a way to manage it,' she said. 'It is dangerous. When they handed me the drug they said, "it's so addictive. Be really careful." And it really, really is. 'I took those pills and thought, "I'll be fine." And I realised you're not fine because they are so addictive.' In October, Jackie first opened up about her addiction issues during a tearful conversation with her co-host Kyle Sandilands on their KIIS FM radio show. Jackie revealed at the height of her addiction she was consuming up to 12 Stilnox sleeping pills and 24 Panadeine Forte tablets daily, often with alcohol. The KIIS FM star admitted on The Kyle and Jackie O Show that she secretly checked into the Betty Ford Clinic for drug and alcohol addiction in November 2022. Jackie admitted she was advised not to reduce her pill intake before arriving at the clinic, meaning she was still using the substances the day she flew out to the US. When Jackie took her break from the show in 2022, Kyle told listeners she was stepping away to 'focus on her health' after contracting COVID-19. However, behind the scenes, the beloved radio host was battling an addiction that had spiralled out of control. The veteran presenter said she wanted to publicly speak about her addiction battle to reduce the 'stigma' around drug dependence and 'normalise' it. The presenter bravely apologised to listeners for not revealing her health struggles earlier. She later publicly thanked her best friend Gemma O'Neill for helping her see she had a problem and getting her checked into The Betty Ford Clinic in California.
