Home and Away star finds love after 'unhealthy' relationship with co-star ex
Home and Away star Sarah Roberts has revealed that she has finally found love again with a new man following her 'unhealthy' marriage to soap co-star James Stewart Home and Away star Sarah Roberts has revealed that she has finally found love again, following her tumultuous marriage with co-star James Stewart. The TV star, 40, who played Willow Harris in the Australian soap, split from James last year and described their relationship as something that "wasn't healthy." But now, Sarah admitted that she has fallen in love with a new man who allows her "to grow in beautiful and unexpected ways." Speaking on the Stellar's Something to Talk About podcast, she said: "I've fallen in love with a man, I'm so in love. I finally found myself, as clichéd as that may sound." Soon after the couple called time on their marriage, reports surfaced that he too had found love again with fellow Home and Away star Ada Nicodemou. And while Sarah appeared to beam with delight when talking about her new love, it seems dealing with her split in the public eye took its toll. She explained: "Dealing with it in the spotlight, and then everything that came out in the media after, absolutely ripped my heart into a million little pieces. But I can't change anyone else's actions or the way people behave. What I can take responsibility for is the way that I feel." She said: "And I know that hurt people hurt people, but healed people can heal people – and I'm so happy with where I'm at today. I've finally found a love for myself which I didn't have. I have beaten myself up for a long time over the fact I stayed in something that wasn't healthy." Sarah found fame after landing the role of Willow in the Aussie soap between 2017 and 2021. But despite leaving the soap, it seems Sarah still has ties to the cast. Back in February Sarah told Daily Mail Australia: "One of my best friends was one of my cast mates on Neighbours. That goes way back. Another one of my best friends, Emily Weir, she's from Home and Away." She added: "I've also made friends with a lot of the new cast from Home and Away because Emily is friends with them and we all hang out together. I just had my 40th birthday party at the end of last year and I had a party on a boat on the Sydney Harbour. It was full of a lot of the Home and Away cast. I get really close to people and really value my friendships.' Sarah continued: "You share so many deep dark secrets about yourself and you have to develop a lot of trust between each other. That lends itself to strong friendships." While Sarah craved out a career for herself in Australian soaps, it looks as though she has now set her ambitions on landing a role on a HBO series in Hollywood. She told the publication: "My next dream it would be to book a television show where I'm in a contract for five years. I would like that to be a character I can sink my teeth into. " Sarah added: "I'm not sure I'd want to do another soap. I would have loved to have done something like Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones. That would be a dream job for me."

Princess Ingrid Alexandra swaps tiara for textbooks in move Down Under for university studies
A future Queen is heading down under to pursue tertiary education at the prestigious University of Sydney. When Norwegian Princess Ingrid Alexandra begins her Bachelor of Arts degree in August, ahead of the university's Semester 2, she will call St Andrew's College home. The college, which is one of the university's exclusive student residences, is in Sydney's inner west. It has been home to the likes of former Shadow Treasurer Angus Taylor, Olympian Rohan Browning and Bondi Vet Dr Chris Brown. The college costs more than $20,000 a semester to board and features a gym, bar, food hall and yoga studio. News of the young royal living on campus was leaked to Daily Mail Australia when students received an email from Dr Daniel Tyler, the principal at St Andrew's College earlier this week. A press release from the Norwegian Palace was issued a short time later. 'She has chosen a three-year degree with a focus on international relations and political economy,' the palace said. 'Her Royal Highness looks forward to dedicating herself to her studies in the years to come.' Princess Alexandra is the daughter of Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit, and the grandchild of King Harald V who has held the Norwegian throne since 1991. The 21-year-old is second in line to succeed him behind her father. Students at St Andrew's College received an email on Tuesday from Principal Dr Daniel Tyler announcing the royal's arrival, Daily Mail Australia reported. 'Princess Ingrid Alexandra of Norway is moving to Sydney to study an Arts degree at the University of Sydney,' the email read. 'I am pleased to let you know she will be joining 'Drews and living on site. I know she is looking forward to integrating into College and university life. 'There may be media interest and enquiries. Please join us in respecting her privacy. 'We will share reminders about security on the College site ahead of Semester 2.' The Princess is not the first international royal to travel to Australia to study. Danish Count Nikolai of Monpezat completed a semester of his business degree as part of an exchange program at the University of Technology Sydney in 2023 while pursuing his master's at Copenhagen Business School. It was revealed by The Daily Telegraph earlier this month that Count Nikolai now calls Sydney home, quietly settling in with his long-time girlfriend and model Benedikte Thoustrup. He now has a full time job, and may be one of the elite that Princess Alexandra spends time with during her trip. Other children of wealthy and well-known families who also frequent the Harbour City include Chloe Green, daughter of British retail billionaire Sir Philip Green, Christian Wilkins, son of TV presenter Richard Wilkins, as well as granddaughter of the late media mogul Kerry Packer, Francesca Packer Barham. Brooklyn Beckham, son of David and Victoria Beckham, and Sunday Rose Kidman Urban, daughter of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, are also known to occasionally visit. Sydney has been home to another royal in somewhat recent years. Queen Mary of Denmark was living in Sydney when she met Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark at the Slip Inn. The then advertising executive met the future King of Denmark while he was in Sydney to support the Danish sailing team at the 2000 Olympic Games. The two embarked upon a long-distance relationship over the next few months before Mary moved from Australia to Denmark in 2001. After four years of dating, the couple married in 2004. She became the Queen of Denmark upon the abdication of Queen Margrethe II last year.

Malcolm Turnbull's brutal four-word sledge for Barnaby Joyce - as he lifts the lid on life as a world leader: 'Flooding the zone with s***'
Malcolm Turnbull has delivered a cutting four-word insult to his former deputy Barnaby Joyce. The former Prime Minister, who is no stranger to sharing his unfiltered thoughts, was speaking at an event at the State Library of Victoria this week when he was asked about Joyce, who served as his deputy between 2016 and 2018. Turnbull reportedly told the audience that he 'got on well with Barnaby a lot of the time'. But he described Joyce as 'mercurial', meaning he is given to sudden or unpredictable changes of mood, before he delivered his scathing put-down. 'Better in the morning,' Turnbull quipped. It is a reference to Joyce's well-documented struggles with alcohol. Infamously, Joyce gave up the grog when Daily Mail Australia published a video of him sprawled on a Canberra pavement mumbling obscenities into his phone late at night in February last year. He blamed the embarrassing episode on mixing prescription pills with alcohol and in an interview with Nine Newspapers last June, said he had quite the booze and lost 15kg in the process. But he insisted he was not a 'wowser', adding: 'Maybe at some stage I'll have a beer again, but at the moment, nah'. When Daily Mail Australia visited him in his seat of New England during the election campaign, Joyce was seen picking up a bottle of chardonnay and a six pack of James Boags' premium beer. At the time, Joyce had effectively been trapped in his seat by a leadership rule brought in by Nationals leader David Littleproud which required Nationals MPs to seek permission from head office to travel outside their electorates. Joyce, 58, insisted he was not a 'sook' and would go where he was asked. 'Look I'll go where I'm asked. If somebody said last week, 'oh, s**t. We're in trouble. We need you to go here, here and here.' I'm not a f***ing sook. I'd immediately do it,' he told this publication. 'I had the Hunter Valley campaign saying 'please, please, please come down' so I went down and Lyne said 'please, please, please come across', so I went across, I'm not a sook - I'll go if I'm asked. 'But if I'm not asked, I'm not going to just turn up. That's in their hands. In the meantime, I'll try to turn this into the safest seat in Australia.' He was not far off achieving that, recording an almost two per cent swing and winning by nearly 40,000 votes. Joyce was booted from the frontbench in the newly-unveiled shadow cabinet this week. He rejected Nationals leader David Littleproud's claim that the new frontbench was about promoting 'generational change'. 'It's not about generational change, Joyce told Nine. 'There are people who are older than me now. I'm 58, I'm not 103.' 'So it's not generational change, it's politics and personalities. Let's call it for what it is, let's be straight.' Daily Mail Australia approached Joyce for comment over Turnbull's 'better in the morning' sledge. Turnbull, 70, regularly weighs in on current affairs. He sparked global headlines in March when he described Donald Trump as 'chaotic, rude, abrasive and erratic' in an interview on Bloomberg TV. The US President hit back, describing him as a 'weak and ineffective leader'. Turnbull referenced Trump again this week, when he made fun of his strategy of releasing information and signing executive orders at such an overwhelming rate that is difficult for the media to effectively hold him to account. The technique, called 'flooding the zone', did not impress Turnbull. 'Flooding the zone with s***,' was his view.

As MAFSAU's Jamie reveals she no longer speaks to Dave, here's where the cast stand with their exes
Ok, so it's been a few weeks since the final episode of Married at First Sight Australia aired, however, we're still firmly invested in the couples who made it to final vows. Every couple, but Rhi and Jeff, have since split (or broke up during awks final vow ceremonies) and we need to know who is now actually in contact with each other. While we know there's been no romantic reconciliation for any of the couples, (in fact there's actually been some couple swapping) are things so bad they can no longer get on as friends? Well yes, it appears that for the majority of the couples they can't even be in the same room as each other and have said some very shady things about their former other halves. Intrigued to know more? Here's where all the couples from MAFS Australia final vows stand with each other now. Status: Not in contact Raise your hand if you're still getting over Jamie and Dave's breakup, yep us too. The couple were everyone's favourite to begin with but slowly as the experiment continued their connection ended up breaking down with Dave questioning his feelings for Jamie. Even though they ended the experiment together at final vows and agreed to continue dating in the real world, their relationship ended soon after. Since then Jamie has spoken out about the pair no longer being in communication. As the show was airing she spoke to Nine, where she said the pair don't speak, "Unfortunately Dave and I don't speak anymore." And now since getting her Instagram back, she's been doing Q+As with fans, with one asking how she copes with a breakup. She revealed that even though she likes to be friends, ultimately it's easier to go no contact. "I'm that person that wants to be friends with everyone even after the worst situation. At the same time what I've learned is not having contact with that person is the best case scenario," she told her 310,000 followers. Status: Not in contact Boy did these two have a dramatic journey on MAFS Australia. One week they were super in love, and the next they were arguing and threatening to end their relationship with each other. Despite making it to final vows, and choosing to continue outside the experiment, they are now over for good, and it's safe to say very much not on speaking terms. Following the end of the series airing in Australia, Awhina spoke to the Daily Mail Australia where she revealed she had cut ties with Adrian after their split. She spoke in more depth about the split with Nine, where she said while she had initially wanted to stay friends with Adrian, she thought it was better off there not being any communication between the pair. "That friendship didn't serve me at all. It was all for him. I've got a community behind me – I'm grounded, I'm back at work, I'm back with my family, friends, my son, I have this big, beautiful life and empathy for Adrian, but he doesn't even deserve it, so I just I cut myself off from it," she revealed. Status: Friendly Carina and Paul were also another couple who had quite the dramatic journey on the show, that ended with Carina deciding not to carry on their relationship after the series during final vows. In the reunion episode it was clear these two didn't reconcile and weren't in communication. In fact they both had some choice words to say about each other. Paul maintained that Carina was a "snob" and Carina said she felt "there's an ickiness towards Paul in my gut." However, since then Carina has said the pair are friendly and likened their relationship now to co-parenting, despite the pair not having any children. "But at the end of the day, we're civil and we're friends. I wish him all the best, and all I could ask is for him to find the right person that's best for him. You know when you have kids with someone and you're co-parenting and you're just civil? I don't have the kids with him, but we were just essentially co-parenting and fine under the same roof," she said. Status: Not in contact Easily one of the most up and down couples in the experiment it's no surprise to anyone that Jacqui and Ryan are no longer in communication. The couple's relationship ended at final vows with Jacqui riding off into the sunset with other MAFSAU groom Clint, whom she is now engaged to. Since then they are now engaged in a legal battle. Back in March Jacqui claimed she had filed a police complaint against Ryan alleging that he shared "sensitive, private, sexual content" without her consent. A month later The Canberra Times reported Jacqui had been granted an interim restraining order against Ryan. Later that month Ryan then sought an ADVO (Apprehended Domestic Violence Order) against Jacqui. Status: Not in contact Ok so it seems these two are basically the only ones who can be in the same room as each other. The couple got married halfway through the experiment as a later arrival pairing. They initially got on super well, however, as the experiment reached its end Teejay began to doubt the pair's connection. They stopped being intimate and had many tough conversations around where the relationship was going with Beth becoming frustrated at Teejay's reluctance to commit to carrying on their relationship in the outside world. Eventually they split and for awhile the pair didn't talk at all. Teejay attempted to contact Beth many times but she was hurt and ignored his messages. However, she's now revealed the pair are on good terms after they had one final meeting to go over their relationship. "I invited him to my apartment, we had a conversation and I got everything off my chest and that felt really good," she told Nine. "It's quite hard to have a conversation like that, especially when you're so emotional." While the pair don't hang out alone, they both seem happy to be in each other's presence and attend events together, with no bad blood. Married at First Sight Australia is available for catchup
