They said what? • “How am I meant to represent a country that doesn’t even represent me?”

Great Scott! • Denise Scott discovers her husband has been keeping secrets … in the bathroom.

Natalie Barr “The boys are my life” • With two teenage sons, raising boys has always been an important part of Natalie Barr’s life. Now those boys are pressing for openness and conversations about consent to become a family discussion, and the Sunrise co-host couldn’t be prouder.

A brilliant mother afflicted with dementia. A devoted daughter, charged with murder • Barbara Eckersley was so distressed by her mother Mary’s suffering that she sought to relieve it with sedatives. Last month, the court collectively held its breath when she stood trial for murder.
