A royal send-off

Women we admire

The fall of Weinstein heralds a new era

Barbie’s hot wheels

THE CROWN JEWEL • Level-headed Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, is increasingly indispensable, as the royal family faces perhaps its toughest time in decades. Her calm, conciliatory approach is soothing fractured royal relationships, says William Langley, as she shoulders an ever-heavier workload and enjoys a new closeness with the Queen.

Road to recovery • It’s fair to say 2019 was an awful year for chef Michael Van de Elzen and his wife Belinda – cancer treatment, a motorbike crash and a host of family health crises – but Emma Clifton finds things are looking rosier now as their cook school and its flourishing garden take off and they can finally enjoy their country idyll.

There’s something about MAGDA • The comedienne extraordinaire, award-winning memoirist, equality activist and now children’s book author, Magda Szubanski, never stops evolving, and as she contemplates 60, she couldn’t be happier, she tells Juliet Rieden.

Truth be told • It’s hard to get a word in edgeways when these much-loved Kiwi actors get together. They chat to Nicky Pellegrino about the movie project that fast-tracked their friendship, the reality of menopause, the heartbreak of losing a parent and how in their 50s they finally feel relaxed about how they look.

“Adversity can be your friend” • After a tough six months Sarah, Duchess of York talks to Juliet Rieden about courage, loneliness, her compassionate daughters and the childhood dreaming that inspired her magical new children’s books.

When darkness falls • Depression had followed Wendyl Nissen through her life, and in a bid to keep it at bay, she resolved to make a massive change. But living a simpler, less stressful life wasn’t going to be straightforward. In this deeply moving account, she talks about the loss of her baby daughter, battling perfectionism and finding her way out of the shadows.

JULIE WALTERS The great dame • Dame Julie Walters kept her cancer diagnosis quiet, because she didn’t want to make a fuss. Now, Emma Clifton finds the famously mischievous 70-year-old is wondering if this latest movie will be her last, as she looks back on her most memorable roles and talks about loving the anonymity of life on her organic sheep farm.

Talking to strangers

Small talk tips

“I’M A CONTROL FREAK” • The king of culinary TV, Gordon Ramsay, is serving up MasterChef Australia’s 12th season and its three new judges. A dad again at 53, he tells Susan Horsburgh about freaking out in the delivery room, his caveman image, and trying to raise normal kids, despite the family fortune.

HOUSE OF MURDER • Maurizio Gucci’s bloody murder rocked the high-stakes world of Italian fashion and scandalised the nation. Twenty-five years later, with a Hollywood retelling of the whole sorry saga in the works, William Langley finds the convicted murderess, Gucci’s former wife, still maintaining her innocence.

Courage under fire • When trouble looms, Dr Megan Woods is often called upon to sort it out. The cabinet minister talks about surviving crazy hours (but still finding time for cricket), how she’s learned to worry less about cruel comments, and why she believes Christchurch is finally on the mend.

Keeping it in the family • As a starry-eyed teen, Jason Donovan...
