They said what?

Great Scott! • Denise Scott finds a friend in need is … on her own.

The pirate’s daughter • Collette Dinnigan made her name creating beautiful clothes for the Paris runways. Now she has a new life creating beautiful things closer to home.

What do these women have in common? ... they have all lived through homelessness • Every night in Australia, more than 49,000 women are homeless. Some are in their teens. Others in their 70s. All their stories are unique. At The Weekly we believe every woman deserves safe, secure housing. We hope that you will join our Unhoused campaign and urge our governments to provide it.

The Queen “Devoted to your service” • As Britain’s longest-reigning monarch through good times and bad, Queen Elizabeth II has proved a role model for generations past, present and future.

Inside the ‘Windsor bubble’ • She’s The Queen’s dressmaker and confidante, and during COVID isolated with Her Majesty in Windsor Castle. In this new chapter of her memoir, Angela Kelly reveals the quiet joys and private heartache of that time.

Why Charles needs the support of both his sons • In an explosive interview, royal biographer Tina Brown examines the inner lives of the royal family and talks about what may happen next.

In a class of their own • Meet the women behind the renaissance in Australian wool.

The REAL story of the DRUG GRANNIES • The incredible tale of two American women who unwittingly became drug mules and were convicted and jailed in Australia.

The day my world changed • In 2018, Selma Blair learned the truth about the mysterious health issue she’d battled, along with alcoholism and depression, for decades. In an exclusive extract from Mean Baby, the actress relives the moment she was told she had MS and how it would change her life.

Desert sounds • The Donovans were just an average suburban family until 15-year-old Steve was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, and in their quest to raise funds for a cure, they fell in love with the desert. Now, their outback music festivals give joy to thousands of Aussie revellers every year.

WINTOUR CHILL • She’s the queen of fashion, and thanks to her “fictional” depiction in The Devil Wears Prada, Anna Wintour is also a household name. A new book investigates her famed froideur.

Stranger danger • Ellis Gunn had survived a lot, including a violent past, and come out the other side tough and positive. But when she started being stalked by a stranger, her world unravelled.

Bedtime stories • Mummy and daddy time takes on a different feel when the kids are old enough to start offering a commentary through the door.

“My baby was stolen from me” • At the notorious Magdalene home for wayward girls in Brisbane, Lily McDonald’s newborn baby was wrenched from her arms forever and so began one mother’s crusade for justice that ultimately led to a national apology. Ten years later, Lily tells the whole story.

“Eternal youth is Olivia’s peace” • When children’s author Roald Dahl and his actress wife Patricia Neal lost their seven-year-old daughter Olivia to measles, it nearly destroyed them. A poignant new film charts the celebrity couple’s private journey through heartache.

great grandparents • A return to Saturday sports proves that practice not only makes perfect, it opens the door for payback.
