Blake Lively‘s It Ends With Us fashion looks are so beautifully floral that my sinuses are flaring just looking at them.
Blake plays Lily Bloom in the movie adaptation of Colleen Hoover‘s best-selling novel where her character opens a florist while navigating a new relationship that turns abusive.
Nothing makes me happier than a lead actor who really commits to their film’s theme through fashion, with Margot Robbie really showing us how its done for the Barbie publicity tour last year.
So before we have to whip out the hankies, let’s go through all of Blake’s best It Ends With Us promo looks so far.

I am absolutely loving the level of detail and commitments from the It Ends With Us fashion choices.
But this skirt absolutely looks like the nicest duster I’ve ever seen and therefore there would be no amount of Claratyne to save me.
Back to the divine look itself. The jewellery! The hair accessories! Blake it giving us the right level of excitement for a movie so many Colleen fans have been waiting for.

I won’t lie: if I can’t count the flowers then there’s a high chance I’m going to need to pack a Kleenex. We’ve got to love this look for its everyday wearability and showing that florals aren’t just for picnic dresses.
This flower purse is very Carrie Bradshaw but considering it’s not a fugly swan we’ll absolutely allow it.

It’s giving Garden Fairy Barbie but here’s something I’m learning: it would appear that Blake can pull literally anything off. Even head-to-toe hot pink!
I would expect no less from the former Serena Van der Woodsen.
This is proof that black works as the perfect base if you want to wear florals without feeling super girly.
The set is beautiful, feminine and even sexy all in one. Into it!

I’m not sure about the mushroom purse’s relevance here but I’m not mad about it because it’s complimenting with the Wizard of Oz shoes and Coachella-appropriate skirt fringing.
If there’s one thing I love about Blake (there’s actually many), it’s that she has this incredible ability to wear the most glamorous things yet still make it look so damn effortless and even achievable.
I think it’s the windswept hair?

Considering this was one of the earlier promo outfits, I really believed that this was the kind of Lily we’d be meeting on It Ends With Us.
But what Blake and her stylists have done so well is showing the different layers of her character with her different looks.
And that’s the best kind of nod that could give to a film that explores so many different human emotions.
Joe was the last Farmer to make his Final Pick on Farmer Wants a Wife 2024, and he chose to leave the show in a relationship with Sarah.
The finale was a nail-biter for fans, as it wasn’t obvious whether Keely or Sarah was Joe’s front-runner.
After dates to meet the family and friends of his Final Two, Joe pulled Keely aside and let her know that his heart was elsewhere. Then he officially sealed his relationship with Sarah.
Now, months after the finale aired, Sarah has confirmed that she’s split from Joe.
Sarah and Joe. Seven.
Are Farmer Want’s a Wife’s Sarah and Joe still together?
Sadly, they’re not. Sarah took to Instagram in August 2024 to announce her breakup with Joe.
“I was really hoping to not have to do this as I’m a very private person, but it’s incredibly hard to heal whilst constantly receiving questions & comments about the status of my relationship,” She wrote.
Sarah said that she and Joe split in July, and asked fans to respect her privacy while she navigated the split.
“I understand there may be a lot of questions regarding why, but at this time I’m not ready to talk about that as I’m still processing the information myself,” she said.

Joe and Sarah’s relationships post-show
Although the couples weren’t meant to reveal if they wee still together until the reunion aired, Joe confirmed in May 2024 that they were, in fact, still a couple post-show.
“There’s been a bit of a backlash, a lot of media saying that we’re not and all the rest of it.
“We’ve definitely had our ups and downs, we’ve had trials and tribulations, like anyone else. I think it’s been exacerbated by the whole experience which we had to go through.”
The couple confirmed at the Reunion – which was filmed about a month after the Finale – that they were still together. However, they did share that they’d had some rough patches.
“It was challenging,” Sarah explained. “We did have good moments but I think neither of us was prepared for how we were going to be feeling.”
“I definitely got on Sarah’s nerves a bit,” Joe added.
However, he confirmed that he and Sarah were “still hanging in there” as a couple.
Joe and Sarah at the Reunion. Ten.
Furthermore, an Instagram photo shared by Sarah the morning after the Finale aired suggested that the couple are still going strong.
She shared a photo of her and Joe snuggled up in bed together. “Fun fact: My favourite movie is ‘How to Lose a Guy in 10 days’, so I wore this dress as a good omen. Can confirm I didn’t lose the guy in 10 days 💛 (According to the rumours it was 11 😉)” She captioned the photo.

Farmer Joe’s final two ladies
Sarah and Keely bought Farmer Joe home to meet their families.
At Sarah’s home visit, her mother warmed to Joe very quickly. However, her best friend Em hit him with the hard questions. During their chat, Em came to the conclusion that Sarah “was a bit deeper” in the relationship, which caused drama between the couple.
Em and Joe. Seven.
Meanwhile, on Keely’s home visit in Yeppoon, she and Joe took her parent’s yacht for a spin before sitting down for lunch with her family.
The day went smoothly, and Keely’s parents got along well with Joe. Her brother called the Farmer aside for a chat during which Joe confirmed that he was ready for a serious relationship.
“That is exactly what I want, I want to be on the farm, I want to start another chapter of my life there and I really want to do it with someone,” he said.
He added: “Keely really makes me feel special. She is beautiful and she can be that ray of sunshine.”
Keely and Joe. Seven.
Farmer Joe’s decision
Sarah stepped out of the car first, which led viewers to believe that he was picking Keely, however, that wasn’t the case.
“Sarah, from the moment I first saw you walking up to me, in that yellow dress, you took my breath away,” Joe told Sarah.
“I love the person you are, I love how strong and determined you are and how uncompromising you are in what you want to achieve.”
“I don’t have all the answers for us but I do see myself falling for you in the future. I want to tackle the future with you,” he continued. “I’m looking for someone who doesn’t need me but wants me. So, Sarah do you want me?”
Sarah confirmed that she did and the two headed back to Joe’s farm together.
FBoy Island 2024 has landed and no one’s happier than me to see a big burning dick on the sand to kick off the Season 2 recaps.
burn motherfucker
This season we have three new leading ladies tasked with figuring out if the men vying for their love are FBoys or Nice Guys.
Choose wrong and they’ll be rorted out of the prize money.
this is fine
First we have Nicole, a model who is asking the bare minimum from a man: to be heard and not just seen.
see me hear me love me!
Krystal (who you remember from The Bachelors) is on the hunt for a “mid” — AKA a six of out 10 — because they’re fabulous at licking pussy.
where is the lie
Ally, our final leading lady, has dated “devil dick” — AKA Vernon Lyon from FBoy Island Season 1. She doesn’t even need to say his name.
I was younger then
Our host and saviour Abbie Chatfield is ready to introduce the ladies to the men of FBoy Island, but first they must finish the last leg of the 14-km City2Surf.
see you in 25 hours
First the boys are introduced to Nicole and it is immediately obvious that they have smelt model (and perfect underboob) because they cannot control their dick energy of varying sizes.
arooga
Next up is Krystal. She has placed second in City2Surf at two hours and 12 minutes, only to see a familiar face from the Gold Coast.
omg is that the rando from Sin City
However, the guy she may or may not have rooted at Toolies isn’t the one she’s got her eyes set on. While she’s adamant about a mid who bothers to find the clit, she has instead chosen “the hot one”.
It is I, ‘The Hot One’
No, she literally called him that, in order to clarify that she’s not talking about this guy.
I lick pussy better than The Hot One tho
Ally places third for City2Surf, finishing at two hours and 19 minutes. She also has her eyes on The Hot One.
this should end well
The ladies and the men then head back to their respective villas where it becomes apparent that Frank has been declared as an FBoy by literally everyone.
Why? He was handsy with Krystal and… as for the guys? I think they just reckon he’s a toss.
Meanwhile, The Hot One has decided he likes Nicole the best.
The Hot Ones must stick together
Back at the women’s HQ, Abbie is getting to know the ladies better.
Ally confirms dirty dog Vernon dropped the L-word on her before going on a bender and blocking her.
that second bag will do it
Ally’s revenge? Implying to all of Australia he has a small dick.
that checks out
Krystal opens up about being the child of an FBoy. Her father cheated on her mum while she was pregnant with Krystal and now she feels like she has a responsibility to stop the chain.
We love Krystal and this is a powerful story. FBoys think their behaviour is funny but it actually can be really fucking traumatic. OK?
“My Fboy radar? Unmatched,” Krystal says.
not counting Felix Van Hofe
The bonfire
Once Jerome (the one who wears Crocs) shares that likes “licking ass” and “eating ass” (just like Flume), the FBoy Island crew head to a bonfire.
Cue Love Island montage
Krystal confirms she may have “sucked” off that guy from the Gold Coast but does not confirm if it was on Cavill Ave. Her memory is really failing her for someone who writes FBoy reminders in her notebook.
So far we know that the guy who wore a leather jacket on an island called her the wrong name and the guy who was on The Amazing Race isn’t sure if he wants to give up the single life.
We also know that everyone’s obsessed with Nicole, even though we all know she is going to choose The Hot One.
as per my last email, I would like to be heard
Sadly The Hot One is also The Dense One because he tells a woman wearing a full face of makeup that she’s a “natural beauty”.
lol this is makeup
Nicole reminds him of the makeup she is wearing, while looking at him with the same eyes lined with eyeliner and shaded with glitter.
“Doesn’t look like it,” he responds. Does this man think we came out of the womb looking like Mila Kunis in her Black Swan era?
you’re telling me those diamantes under your eyes aren’t permanent?
Someone open their TikTok and show this man a GRWM.
Thankfully another man named Nick takes over and he knows the word “intrinsic” so please, do not be fooled by his earlier peck pumping.
I brought my thesaurus
Krystal, who was once on The Bachelors, has taken a liking to Paddy, who was once on The Bachelorette.
“Paddy, he isn’t the hottest,” Krystal says and my heart breaks from him watching this back right now.
which means you’ll be fab at going down
Krystal can sense an anaconda in those pants so she gives him a pash with so much tongue it requires a KFC wet clean up towel.
slurp
“I love how you played with my tongue,” he tells her and I may just vomit on my television screen.
da fuq u just say
In other areas of the party, a man with tatoos decides to dry-root Nicole’s foot and Frank is trying to convince Krystal he’s a nice guy because his ex slept with his mate behind his back.
That doesn’t make you a nice guy, it just means you have fucked friends.
nice try
It’s time to choose who the ladies will be taking on their first dates.
Nicole chooses Jack (the man who can both use big words and pop his pecks), Krystal chooses Frank (to try and determine his FBoy status once and for all) and Ally goes for The Hot One (The Christian Who Has Sex Before Marriage AKA The Man Who Thinks Women Were Born With Eyeliner).
you lack common sense but as long as you fuck before nuptials we’re good
The first dates
Ally is wet. She’s dickmatised by The Hot One’s past four-year relationship and ability to talk nicely about his ex.
a man who doesn’t talk shit about his ex? Rare find!!!
Then he slips his tongue in like the good Christian boy he is.
forgive me father for I have sinned
Meanwhile, Krystal is embracing her inner Cavill Ave by sharing a vodka cruiser with Frank after making him run around a sunflower garden naked.
we love preemptive revenge
Nicole and Jack jetski, talk about how much they like each other and then slip their tongues in both on dry land and in the sea.
we are so intrinsic rn bby
We finish off our dates portion of the episode by Ally finding out that The Hot One liked Nicole first and would like to still get to know her considering he’s known Ally a full three minutes.
But she was born with eye glitter!
Ally cries.
The elimination
The girls have taken to their directors chairs for their first FBoy Island elimination.
A bunch of people we hardly know are up for elimination, plus Frank, that foot fucker, The Hot One (!!!) and that Jake dude who you recognise from The Amazing Race. Sadly The Amazing Race dude already left (probably to go on another reality TV show).
enjoy Love Is Blind
Only the foot fucker and Jin leave. Jin is the one who told Nicole she was stunning. Sorry, that didn’t narrow it down, did it?
This is Jin
Jin and his slutty ankles are an Fboy but the dry foot fucker is a Nice Guy!
I’ll never dry root a foot again
One down, many to go. I’ll be writing FBoy Island Season 2 recaps the entire season so I’ll see you here next Monday but until then, you can follow me on Instagram.
It’s no secret that preparing for Dancing With The Stars (DWTS) involves long hours of physically challenging rehearsals — but how does that compare to training for the Olympics?
Well, according to Olympian and now-eliminated cast member Nova Peris, DWTS ain’t got nothing on the Olympic preparation regime.
“It’s not even in the same league,” Nova told Chattr, adding that there were a few slight similarities between the two.
“You’re going to training. You meet your partner at 7:30am – 8am in the morning, and you finish at four or five in the afternoon, and you’ve just got to keep pushing through,” she explained.
Training for DWTS kicks off about seven weeks before the premiere and involves full days five times a week.
“It’s intense in the intensity of the training. You’re trying to learn something that’s totally foreign to you. But no, I wouldn’t go as far as to compare it to preparing for the Olympics.”
Nova, who is currently commentating at the 2024 Paris Olympics, said that her experience with training for the Hockeyroos and the Olympics helped her adapt to theDancing With The Starsrehearsal schedule.
“It was hard, but it was easy for me to suck it up, go and have an ice bath, have a Panadol, have a Celebrex and then get up and wake up and do the same thing the next day.”
Nova confirmed to Chattr that she’s been asked to join Dancing With The Stars in previous years but “couldn’t commit the time” until this season.
“It’s nine weeks of your life that you have to commit to,” she explained.
Fortunately for us viewers, Nova found the time to compete on DWTS 2024 and said she went into the competition with no experience.
“The Hockeyroos girls were all cheering me on and they’re like, ‘The only time we’ve seen Nova dance is after we’ve won a world championship,” she laughed.
Watch Dancing With The Stars Australia 2024 on Sundays from 7pm on Channel 7 and 7plus.
Samantha Armytagehas announced that she’s leaving Channel 7 after 21 years at the network – which means she will also be walking away from her role as host of Farmer Wants a Wife (FWAW).
“It’s a little sad and it’s bittersweet, but the time has come,” Samantha told Daily Telegraphof her decision to leave the network.
“I leave with lots of goodwill in my heart and excitement about the future,” she added.
“I’m big on instinct. I listen to my instinct. I know when the time comes. I am proud of the fact that I back myself enough to say, ‘I’ve done what I can do here’ and I move on.”

Why did Samantha Armytage decide to leave Channel 7?
The TV personality told the publication that she knew it was time for something new.
“I came to this decision on my own, it’s about what I want to do with my life.
“I had to sit with myself here and ask, ‘What does my next 5 to 10 years look like?’.
“I’m 47, so it was a bit of a stocktake,” she added. “I’m still productive. I want to make good TV.”
Sam said that while she wanted to continue to host Farmer Wants a Wife, she wanted to do other shows in the time that she wasn’t filming the popular reality series.
“I was happy to do more. Farmer takes up six months of the year, so I had the time to do more but that wasn’t to be,” she said.

An Insider claims that Samantha wanted to step away from reality TV
Samantha worked for Sunrise for eight years and left the show in 2021. During her time there she interviewed some of the biggest stars in the world, including Justin Bieber, Brad Pitt and Prince William.
A Seven source told Yahoo Lifestyle that Sam decided to hang up her hat at Channel 7 because she wasn’t being offered more varied opportunities.
“Since Sam left Sunrise [in 2021] all they’ve really given her is Farmer,” the insider said.
“She wants something gritty and real, not to be shafted into reality.
“Throughout her career, Sam’s travelled the world covering wars, natural disasters and the biggest stories of most people’s lifetimes and she misses the rush that comes with this and knowing she’s making a difference.”
We’re at the tail end of Too Hot To Handle (THTH) Season 6, and it’s almost time for the final episodes of the Netflix reality show to drop in Australia.
So far, the current season has seen the return of THTH alums FlaviaLaos Urbina and Louis Russell, the latter of the two break multiple rules with KatherineLaPrell and… almost no strong relationships being built.
However, with Too Hot To Handle episodes 8, 9, and 10 still to come, there’s a slight chance that some of the contestants may find everlasting love.

How to watch the final episodes of Too Hot To Handle in Australia
The show is exclusive to Netflix, so you’ll have to sign up to the streaming platform (if you haven’t already), in order to watch it.
When do the final Too Hot To Handle Season 6 episodes air in Australia?
Episodes 8-10 drop on the streaming platform on August 2nd. However, because Netflix is available worldwide, the exact time they’ll be released can be confusing.
Us Aussies can expect the new episodes to be uploaded at around midnight Pacific Time, which is 5pm for those in New South Wales, Queensland, Tasmania, Victoria and ACT.
That converts to 4:30pm for those in the Northern Territory and South Australia and 3pm for peeps in Western Australia.
Katherine and Charlie. Image: Netflix.
Who’s in the final three episodes of Too Hot To Handle Season 6?
The original cast was made up of Bri Balram, Charlie Jeer, Chris Aalli, Demari Davis, Gianna Pettus, Joao Coronel, Katherine, Lucy Syed, Kylisha Jag and Jordan Frank.
Jordan self-eliminated early on in the show, and THTH veterans Flavia and Louis joined during episode two.
Louis was later eliminated alongside Kylisha, and Cristian Lager, Valentina Rueda Velez, Sabrina Zima and Jalen Olomu-Brown have since joined the cast.
The cast still in the competition going into episode eight are Bri, Charlie, Chris, Demari, Giana, Joao, Katherine, Lucy, Flavia, Cristian, Valentina, Sabrina and Jalen.
Stream the final Too Hot To Handle Season 6 episodes from August 2 on Netflix.
If you’re looking to add a new podcast to your rotation then Instagram’s brand new Off The Handle season could be it.
The video-first podcast series sits down with the most influential people on Instagram and gets to know them both on and off their famous Instagram handles.
Hosted by Rudy Jean Rigg, Off The Handle dives into the unique journeys of Australia’s biggest names and lifts the hood on how they tackle their life and career.
Meta launched the podcast at their offices this week. Image: Chattr.
It’s full of everything you’re dying to know plus some things that’ll surely surprise you. “We spend so much time online and on Instagram on the handle, why not go off the handle? Our awesome season one guests get comfy on our couch and get the opportunity to open up and talk about all the things that they don’t share on the handle.” Rudy told Chattr.
“The listener should feel like they’re in the lounge room and together we’re getting to know someone — and they’re listening to a friend who already shares their life on Instagram – sharing their stories and sharing their journey, there needs to be that kind of spirit and that kind of life to it.”
Who will be on Off The Handle
The launch episode sits down with Aussie musician G Flip and will be followed by the likes of social media star Sopha Dopha, our millennial king Tim Collins (100% That Tim), musician Jessica Mauboy, foodies Bridey Jake and Jiny Maeng and Taylor Swift‘s Eras Tour opener Girl In Red.
Each guest is asked to bring along an item they love or hate to help us get to know them better and if Tim doesn’t bring one of his 158 wigs I would like a refund. Just kidding — the man could throw champagne on my face and I’d thank him for it.
The Off The Handle podcast episodes will also rack the creator’s brains and even their DMs to try and get to know the human behind the handle that little bit better.
“It’s sitting down and really getting to know someone and when it comes to sharing the stories and sharing the journeys who already share their lives on Instagram, there needs to be that kind of spirit and that kind of life to it,” Rudy added.
G Flip discussing Off The Handle. Image: Chattr.
Keen? Same.
The first episode with G Flip is now streaming and you can got your earholes around it wherever you get your podcasts — Spotify, Apple Podcasts and YouTube.
As a little teaser, G Flip will be touching on touring for bands like Tash Sultana and how they’re the role model they wish they had when they were younger.
You can also follow (of course) the Off The Handle Instagram for all the BTS tea in between new episodes of the Off The Handle podcast dropping fortnightly.
Just days before Julie Goodwin was set to make her Dancing With The Stars debut, she was left devastated after a calf injury forced her to sit out the first round.
However, the former MasterChef Australia contestant refused to give up and has opened up to Chattr about how determined she was to return to the stage and compete.
“There were tears. It was devastating; it was so disappointing. We were all so excited to kick off, and it was just such an anti-climax,” she said in the interview following the DWTS 2024 premiere.
Julie had spent a considerable amount of time rehearsing for the show, and the injury occurred during rehearsals just before she was due to compete.
“We’d been rehearsing for about five weeks,” she said. “Well, and truly more than 40 hours a week… and then I injured myself right before the first dance.”
Julie was rehearsing with her partner, Andrey Gorbunov, when the medical emergency struck.
“We were rehearsing the jive, and there’s this little part of it where I do a little run-up, then launch myself at Andrey, and he lifts me up and spins me around,” she explained.
“During the launch movement, I felt my calf go. It was like a guitar string snapping, and it was instant agony. The scans showed that it was a significant tear in the calf muscles.”
Reflecting on the moment, Julie said that it was abundantly clear how serious her injury was.
“I knew instantly it was going to be a showstopper. I was in so much pain, sweat just poured out of my whole body. It was agonising,” she added.
Hunted Australia is back for 2024 and the ultimate game of cat and mouse has a few new tricks up its sleeve.
The reality series tracks nine pairs of ordinary Australians, called Fugitives, as they evade a team of expert Hunters determined to catch them.
While the winners of the first two seasons ofHunted Australia shared a $100,000 cash prize, the stakes are higher in 2024 with a massive grand prize of $1 million.
Hunted 2024. Image: Ten.
When does Hunted start?
The new season of Hunted will air after the Olympics on Monday, August 12 at 7.30pm on Channel 10 And 10 Play.
Who is the new Hunted Chief?
On top of the huge jump in potential prize money, there will also be a new Chief at the helm. After two years in charge, Dr. David Craig is stepping down and Reece Dewar, OAM ( Order of Australia medal), is stepping up to lead the Hunters.
The former Hunted deputy has over 20 years of experience in the Australian Defence Force and was awarded the OAM for services to the special operations community.
Reece Dewar. Image: Ten.
Who are the Hunters?
A team of 18 Hunters will be led by Reece, and they include Season 1 and Season 2 alum Ben Owen, Dr Karla Lopez and Graeme Simpfendorfer. Find out more about the Hunted Australia 2024 Hunters here.
Who’s in the Hunted 2024 cast?
Nine teams of Fugitives will be going on the running in Hunted 2024. They include Gen Z friends from Queensland coined the Dangerous Duo Jayde and Tayla, recently engaged Queensland couple Joanna and Lee, NSW father and daughter duo Tanisha and Bobby and down-to-earth country girls Romanee and Chelsea.
Joining them on the run will be Andy and Deb from South Australia, thrill seekers Ondeane and Shelli from Western Australia and Victorian married couple Ben and Luke.
Rounding out the cast are friends from NSW Kaylie and Tony and Victorian mates Akec and Joe.
Although the premiere is still months away, most of the MAFS 2025 cast has already been leaked, which has caused chaos for the weddings.
The leaked information has removed the surprise component for some MAFS 2025 brides and grooms, who’ve been able to figure out who their match is before reaching the altar.
“They haven’t even finished filming the weddings and more than half of the cast have been named on social media and in the press. There’s no element of surprise this season,” an insider told Yahoo Lifestyle.
MAFS bride Carina Mirabile and groom Eliot Donovan. Image: TikTok/Instagram.
The source said that production has been working overtime to try and remove any indication of familiarity between the matches at their weddings.
“The foundation of the entire concept of the show is meeting a stranger down the aisle, and this year that hasn’t happened for several matches,” an insider told Yahoo Lifestyle.
“Producers have had to do a lot of re-shoots and faking reactions to try and maintain some magic.”

One MAFS 2025 couple knew each other before their TV wedding
While some of the 2025 brides and grooms have recognised each other from the cast leaks, one MAFS 2025 couple took it to a whole new level.
Jeff Gobbels and Rhi Disljenkovic – who are coupled up in the upcoming season – knew each other before the experiment.
Chattr can confirm that Rhi already followed Jeff on Instagram before their wedding.
An insider who attended Jeff and Rhi’s wedding snapped a video of Rhi walking down the aisle. The clip was shared by Daily Mail Australia and showed Jeff recognising his bride as she walked towards him.
“Hi Rhi,” he said to her, before adding: “What the hell?”
Considering that a good chunk of the 2025 MAFS cast are influencers, it’s not exactly surprising that they run in the same circles… Bring on the chaos, we say.
Phoebe and Mitch were together for two years and announced their break up on Instagram on July 29. Now, Phoebe has released an emotional video that she took eight days after the breakup, but before their split was made public.
“If you’re seeing this, that means me and Mitch would have already announced our break up to the world, which is terrifying,” she began.
Phoebe explained that she’d been holding off on announcing the end of their relationship because it made it “more real”.
She tearfully explained she’s hopeful her followers could give her some advice about how to deal with the breakup.
Rewinding to day 8 ❤️🩹 I wasn’t sure if i would ever post this but as someone who tries to keep it real with you all, i feel like i’ve built a following where i can trust that you will all be here for me during this time. Sometimes it’s hard for me to go to my friends & family when im sad, especially when not everyone can relate to how i feel. So if you have gone through a breakup like this, please help me to move forward 🥺💌 hopefully i get back to a better headspace soon
Phoebe broke down in the video and explained how much she’s been struggling emotionally with her breakup from Mitch.
“I keep going on Tiktok and trying to look for advice on how to deal with a breakup,” she explained.
“It’s only been eight days, all I do is cry. It’s awful… This is the worst feeling ever, and I really hope that you guys can help me out,” she said.
Phoebe added that she’s really “thankful” for her supportive followers.
“Whenever I post this, if I ever do, please help me, because I just feel like I can’t breathe. I feel so alone,” she said.
The Love Island Australia star took the video eight days after she and Mitch decided to break up and said “It’s been the worst eight days” of her life.
Love Island’s Phoebe and Mitch’s break-up announcement
Phoebe and Mitch originally shared similar text-based announcements on Instagram.
“I honestly never thought I’d be writing this… But unfortunately, Mitch and I have separated,” Phoebe wrote.
Mitch echoed her sentiment in his own post.
“Unfortunately me and Phoebe have decided after two years that we would go our separate ways,” he penned.
As heartbreaking as it is to see Phoebe’s pain, it’s refreshing to see a reality TV star be openly vulnerable.
The Voice Australia changed up the reality TV singing game way back in 2012, and over the past eleven years, it’s produced some shining stars.
It was the first show of its genre to introduce some seriously successful judges from the music industry as well as the swinging chair feature that we know today as the Blind auditions.
During The Voice Australia’s premiere season, Seal, Keith Urban, Delta Goodrem, and Joel Madden took the red chairs as judges.
Since then, Ricky Martin, Kylie Minogue, will.i.am, Jessie J, Benji Madden, Ronan Keating, Kelly Rowland, Boy George, Joe Jonas, Guy Sebastian, Rita Ora, Jessica Mauboy and Jason Derulo (whew!) have all featured as judges on The Voice Australia.
Plus, during that time, 12 winners have been crowned.
To celebrate the return of The Voice Australia in August, we’ve popped together a list of every contestant who’s won since the show’s inception.
2023 Winner – Tarryn Stokes
The Voice. Seven.
Tarryn sang All By Myself by Eric Carmen in The Voice 2023 final and beat out Charlie Pittman, Ethan Beckton, and Ezra Williams to be crowned the winner. At 40 years old she is the oldest winner in The Voice Australia history.
2022 Winner – Lachie Gill
The Voice. Seven.
Lachie was recruited to be part of Team Rita and won The Voice 2022. Since his win he has released four singles, and an EP titled Write It Out.
2021 Winner – Bella Taylor Smith
The Voice. Seven.
Bella won The Voice 2021 for Team Guy. Since then, she’s released two singles, including Nice To Know Ya in 2022. That same year she got engaged to her partner Josh Cole.
2020 Winner – Chris Sebastian
The Voice. Seven.
If you’re pondering why Chris looks familiar, it’s probably because he’s Guy Sebastian’s younger brother. He was originally on Team Seal in The Voice Australia Season 1 but was eliminated in the quarter-finals.
In 2020 he returned and won the competition as part of Kelly’s team.
2019 Winner – Diana Rouvas

FBoy IslandAustralia is coming back for Season Two and finally we’ve got the deets we’ve been waiting for — a trailer, release date and even our leading ladies.
Keep reading for everything we know so far about FBOY Island Season Two, including a familiar face as part of the leading ladies, one hell of a packed trailer, where the show’s filmed and more.
Here’s everything we know about FBoy Island Australia 2024.
Is there an FBoy Island Season Two trailer?
Sure is! And let me tell you, FBoy Island Season Two looks like it will D-E-L-I-V-E-R. Do I spy Abbie Chatfieldtelling someone off? Do I spy a Bachie contestant (more on that below)? Keen!!!
The official trailer follows a few teases we’ve copped this month, including one where Abbie asks why Limbro is open.
(For the uninitiated, Limbro is where naughty FBOYs are sent to repent after they’re eliminated.)
Could Abbie asking “Who left it open?” mean that some of the FBoysfrom Season One are returning in Season Two? Could VernonLyon be back for another round?
The FBoys and Nice Guys for Season Two have just been announced and they include some reality TV alumni! See the FBoy Island men, including one block from Bachelor In Paradise and one from Amazing Race Australia.
will be made up of just yet. There’s a decent taste of what we’re in for thanks to the trailer above, though. I don’t think they’re going to disappoint.
Who are FBoy Island Australia’s leading ladies?
Australia, meet Krystal Thomas, Ally Woodfall and Nicole Mitrov.
From left to right: Ally Woodfall, Krystal Thomas, Nicole Mitrov. Image: BINGE.
Krystal has experience navigating FBoys — you might remember her as a The Bachelors contestant where she dated Felix Van Hofe.
Nicole is a model and Ally is Vernon‘s ex.
Who will host FBOY Island Season Two?
Abbie will return as host of FBoy Island Australia after nailing the job for Season One.
Literally the best host choice for this show. Image: BINGE.
Not only has she been on a reality dating show before as runner-up for Matt Agnew‘s The Bachelor season, but she also knows when to call out people for being shitty.
In Abbie we trust.
What can we expect from FBOY Island Season Two?
Host Abbie explained that while fans can expect drama again this season, the sophomore season will be different from the first.
FBOY Island Season Two’s leading ladies with host Abbie. Image: BINGE.
“This season is as drama-filled but in really different ways,” Chatfield told Daily Telegraph earlier this year.
“The stories along the way are way more complex and I think the three leading women did such an amazing job at supporting each other, really doing detective work and being steadfast.
“They had some hard conversations with each other along the way as well, which I think is what real friendship is all about.”
The official FBOY Island Season Two release date is August 5, 2024. Pencil it in! It will air every Monday for nine weeks.
Which FBOY Island Season One couples are still together?
In Season One, Molly O’Halloran, Ziara Rae and Sophie Blackley attempted to navigate their way through the FBOYs and find true love.
FBOY Island leads and their final picks. Image: BINGE.
Molly and Ziara both snagged “nice guys” in Nick Brownand Izaya Leotarespectively. And they’re still with their chosen picks!
Meanwhile, Sophie chose Joshy Allen, even though he was revealed to be an FBoy. They split up shortly after.
How to watch FBoy Island Australia
FBOY Island Australia streams exclusively on streaming service BINGE from August 5. You can watch everyone episode of Season One now.
Where is FBoy Island Australia filmed?
Sadly (or gladly?) there is no actual FBoy Island on Google Maps. FBoy Island Australia is filmed in a place called Casaurina which is 150km south to south east of Brisbane.
One of theFBoy Island Australia Season 2leading ladies has previously been on The Bachelor, so it makes sense that some of the men from the FBoy Island cast have a reality TV background too.
Both Jake O’Brien and Paddy Colliar – who could be nice guys or F Boys – have previously been on Australian reality shows, and Jake even made it to an international iteration!
More recently, the couple were on MTV’s Ex on the Beach: Couples. During the season Jake’s ex, Pala, tried to get him back, but he ended up leaving with Holly.

Paddy was one of Ali Oetjen’s suitors on The Bachelorette back in 2010. Although he was eliminated early, he was bought back for Bachelor In Paradise.
Shortly after coming off The Bachelorette, he admitted that he ran a brothel.
“I had to stop stripping, the brothel that I run had to stop. I had so much to give up,” he told NW Magazine at the time.
“That’s what I said to Ali – I gave up the brothel [for this].”
While Paddy may have repented from his mid-noughties ways, if some of his post-Bachelorette quotes are to go by, all signs are pointing to him being an FBoy.

Home and Away star Nicholas Cartwright has reportedly called a former executive for the soap a c**t in a leaked text exchange.
The drama all began when Dan Bennett – who ran the Seven soap as Network Script Executive between 2016 and 2017 – responded to a social media post of Nicholas‘ (who plays Cash Newman on Home and Away).
“I’d seen him promoting an upcoming [Home and Away] storyline about the River Boys coming back,” Bennett told Daily Mail Australia.
Dan Bennett. Twitter.Nicholas Cartwright. Instagram.
Dan said that he responded to the story with some “zzz’s” which he explained implied that he thought the plot angle was “a bit boring”.
“Of course, that’s just my view; I’m just a fan these days. But next thing you know, I’ve got Nicholas Cartwright – one of the supposed stars of the show – sending me DMs and calling me ‘a c**t,” Dan told the publication.
“I don’t know Nicholas, I’ve never met him… so to think that’s how he talks to fans is deeply concerning.”
Nicholas. Image: Instagram.
What else did the messages between Dan and Nicholas say?
Daily Mail Australia published screenshots of the conversation (which you can see here), and – as Dan said – they show him responding to Nicholas’s Instagram story with a bunch of ‘Zzz’ emojis.
Nicholas then reportedly replied back: “Rude response from someone in the industry Dan.”
The former Script Executive then went off on somewhat of a tangent in his published reply.
“Or perhaps an informed response from someone who knows that show better than anyone else on the planet and is bereft to see it reverting to River Boy nonsense,” he began.
“The notion that we should support productions simply because we’re in the “industry” as opposed to supporting them because the quality is A+, is nonsense. How does anyone fair by applauding mediocrity as opposed to excellence?”
Nicholas reportedly responded, “Okate mate, try not to be a c**t about it next time 👍.”
Sam Frost and Nicholas Cartwright. Image: Seven.
Dan contacted Nicholas’ Home and Away bosses about the exchange
Dan told the publication that he contacted Nicholas’s bosses at Home and Away about the message exchange.
“I don’t want to p*** on anyone’s career or get anyone in trouble, but I’ve messaged his seniors and been told that it’s been dealt with and I’m happy with that,” he said.
“He was probably just having a bad day and p***ed off about something else. But it wasn’t a nice experience and I would hate to think he’d message anyone else something like that.”
Soooo, Dan ridiculed Nicholas’ work in a DM, lectured him about his job, and dobbed him into his bosses. Yet, he’s the one claiming he didn’t have a “nice experience”? Right. Okay.

Farmer Wants a Wife’sClaire Saunders has taken a savage dig at her ex-fiance Andrew Coleman while listing her wedding dress for sale on Facebook.
In Early July, the 2023 Farmer Wants a Wife (FWAW) contestant announced that her wedding to Farmer Andrew was cancelled.
“My dogs and I have headed north to Darwin to work for the dry season. Andrew and I have had to cancel our wedding due to reasons out of our control, but we are both okay,” she began in an Instagram post.
“I’m not sure what else to say other than, sometimes life is hard and we all just need a little breathing space. There will be no farming content from me for the foreseeable future,” she cryptically added.
Claire’s post. Image: Instagram.
Both 2023 reality stars also deleted their engagement posts from their Instagram grids.
However, there was still a glimmer of hope for the couple as Andrew still has a yellow heart emoji next to Claire’s name in his Instagram bio.
Why did Farmer Andrew and Claire cancel their wedding?
While neither party has publicly revealed exactly why they called their wedding off, a former Farmer Wants a Wife 2023 contestant has spilled the tea.
“Last I heard, they’re technically still together but taking time apart and having a break,” the unnamed co-star said. She added that the choice to cancel was “led by Andrew” and said that Claire was “pretty upset”.
Claire Saunders has listed her wedding dress for sale
Claire and Andrew’s nuptials appear to be well and truly cancelled, with the marketing manager taking to Facebook to sell her wedding dress.
“Arya Wedding Dress by Essense size 10 Brand New with Tags (never worn) Comes with sleeves that you can add on if you’d like to. Price is firm, as the retail price is $3100 Pick up Narromine, Dubbo or Launceston,” she wrote in the post.
Claires post. Image: Facebook.
Claire posted her wedding dress in multiple groups on Facebook. When a user commented on the post and said that they hoped Claire “was ok”, she took an apparent dig at Andrew.
“I’m okay, I’d rather be where I am now instead of being married to a selfish F wit!!” she responded, as per Yahoo Lifestyle.
Claire and Andrew’s engagement
Andrew popped the question to Claire in March 2024.
At the time, the pair shared the exciting engagement news on Instagram by posting a boomerang video of a pair of champagne flutes, their horses and an emerald ring adorning Claire’s finger.
“I said YES to the love of my life 💍❤️,” Claire captioned the now-deleted video.
“So absolutely grateful that I wake up to this life everyday. You are my best friend @farmerandrewau and my safe place, ILYSM Xx #engaged #ourbestlife.”

Claire and Andrew’s Farmer Wants a Wife journey
Claire and Andrew met on FWAW but their story didn’t follow the typical script. Andrew almost immediately recognised Claire as the one for him and he decided to let the other contestants go before the finale.
“There was a note on my bed when I arrived at the farm. It read, ‘Meet me outside, we need to chat.’ I was convinced I was about to be sent home, so it came as a pleasant surprise.”
“I got to the farm and there was a letter on the bed, and it said, ‘Meet me out the front, we need to talk.’ I thought I was going home, so I didn’t expect that, it was nice,” FWAW‘s Claire told Woman’s Day at the time.
After Andrew confessed his love to Claire, the couple left the show together and moved to his farm shortly after.
Amazon Prime Video’s The Boys is getting a prequel spinoff called Vought Rising which is great news for fans who were bummed about Season 5 ending.
The Boys spinoff was announced during a panel presentation at San Diego Comic-Con. Supernatural‘s Jensen Ackles (Soldier Boy) and Aya Cash (Stormfront) will feature in the new prequel series.
Here’s everything we know so far about the upcoming The Boys spinoff, Vought Rising.
What is The Boys spinoff Vought Rising about?
Vought Rising is “a twisted murder mystery about the origins of Vought in the 1950s”, according to the official The Boys Instagram page.
“Vought Rising may or may not feature the very first Herogasm, founded in 1952,” the post added about The Boys spinoff.
For the uninitiated, Herogasm is a yearly festival where superheroes engage in a bunch of sexual activity. A selling point for the new spinoff if I ever did hear one!
Vought Rising will also follow “the early exploits of Soldier Boy, and the diabolical manoeuvres of a ‘Supe’ known to fans as Stormfront, who was then going by the name Clara Vought”, according to executive producers Eric Kripke and Paul Grellong‘s statement (shared by news.com.au).
“We cannot wait to blow your minds and trouble your souls with this salacious, grisly saga drenched in blood and Compound V.”
This will be the third The Boys spinoff.
The Boys Season 5 will be the last
During the San Diego Comic-Con panel, it was also revealed that Jensen will play a major role in The Boys Season 5 and that a relationship between Soldier Boy and Homelander will be further explored.
The Boys Season 4 premiered in June 2024 and it was recently confirmed that Season 5 would be its last.
Just before the highly anticipated premiere of Season 4 in June, Eric Kripke (the mastermind behind the show), announced that Season 5 would be the final season.
“SEE YOU FOR OUR FINAL SEASON, MOTHERF***ERS!” the tweet read.
“From the very beginning, I wanted to wrap it out around season five,” Kripke told The Hollywood Reporter.
“And then I would say plans really solidified that we were going to actually do it years ago.
“It might have been because I was trained as a TV writer and there were five acts,” he added.
“It gives you enough time to get to know the characters… It’s about the characters and then you kick off into a climax.”
End of an era! At least now we have The Boys spinoff to look forward to, huh?
Samantha Jade has revealed why she agreed to join the Dancing With The Stars 2024 cast after previously turning down the opportunity.
She is currently competing on the show alongside professional dancerGustavo Viglio and has topped the Dancing With The Stars (DWTS) leaderboard in the first two weeks of competition.
Back in 2022, Samantha Jade told Yahoo Lifestyle that she’d previously been asked to join the reality show.
“I’ve been asked to do them all,” she said at the time, listing I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, The Masked Singer and DWTS as the shows that she’s said no to.
Samantha Jade. Image: Instagram.
So why did Samantha Jade join Dancing With The Stars 2024?
In a new interview, Samantha Jade told Yahoo Lifestyle that she previously turned down the show because she was “scared” before deciding it was time to challenge herself.
“I think they asked me last November and I was kind of like, ‘Oh, I’m not sure’ again and then took ages to say yes, and my manager was like, ‘What is it? What are you scared of? What is the thing?’,” she explained.
“I think I was like, ‘Oh no, I won’t be good at it, it’ll be too hard’, and putting it in that basket of the ‘too hard’ thing. And then I was like, why am I doing that? Like, how fun to learn a new skill as well?”
Samantha and Gustavo on DWTS. Image: Seven.
The Peachy singer said that while DWTS was initially gruelling, she’s grateful she pushed herself to do it.
“When you get to a certain age you don’t do things that scare you anymore. You’ve got your little setups, you’ve got your life, you know what you can do.
“And I was like, that’s not a good thing. I want to do something that scares me and gives me that ‘Ooh, I’m nervous to do this’ feeling,” she continued.
“And what I wanted from the experience is exactly what I got. The first week I was like, ‘What have I done? Oh my gosh, this is so hard!’. But it was such a great experience, I loved it.”

Love Island Australia’sPhoebe Spiller has a message for her female fans following her split with long-term boyfriend Mitch Eliot.
Mitchand Phoebe met on Love Island Australia in 2022 and were in a relationship for over two years. They announced their break up on Instagram on July 29, 2024.
Just hours after making their split insta-official, Phoebe took to the platform to criticise her female fans for following Mitch.
“Guys wtf over 100 girls have followed Mitch already, EXCUSE ME FAKE FKN FOLLOWERS u girls are NOT LOYAL,” she wrote.
Although Phoebe quickly deleted the post, influencer watchdog account @keepingupwithaussieinfluencers shared a screenshot and suggested that the new follows were because people wanted to know more about their break up.
“Phoebe’s latest story. She knows that people follow others to be nosey right? Not because they are going to hit on him,” the account wrote.

Love Island’s Phoebe and Mitch’s break-up announcement
Phoebe and Mitch both shared break-up announcements on their respective Instagram accounts.
Phoebe said that she was a “wreck” and “honestly never thought” she’d be writing a breakup announcement.
“Unfortunately Mitch and I have separated,” she wrote.
“As you can imagine, I have been a wreck and not in a good head space as of lately, so I’d really appreciate it if you guys don’t ask questions or make assumptions,” she continued.
“As much as I wanted him to be my forever, we ended up wanting different things. Regardless of that though, I will always love him.”

Mitch penned a similar announcement.
“Unfortunately me and Phoebe have decided after two years that we would go our separate ways,” he began.
“Never thought I’d be one to make a break up post, but I feel like it’s needed so we can focus on getting through this and moving on.”
He then addressed Phoebe directly.
“Phoebe, we fell in love the day we met and from then on you showed me what it’s like to be so bloody loved. You gave me an amazing two years and I can’t thank you enough for that.
“But we need time to grow as our own people. I still love you very very much and will still always be backing you,” Mitch concluded.
Harry Garside has shared a heartfelt message on social media after missing out on the gold medal he was gunning for at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
Overnight Australian time, Harry was eliminated in the first round of the men’s 63.5kg class. He won a bronze medal at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic games and had been hoping to score a gold in Paris.
In a post-match interview that personally broke my heart watching at home, Harry apologised to his home country and revealed that times ahead will be tough for him.
Harry Garside’s disappointment over his Paris 2024 Olympics outcome
“It is crazy… two decades dedicated to one dream and it is over just like that,” Harry told Nine.
“Australia is such a sporting nation and I’m so sorry. Honestly, I feel like a failure right now … I don’t even know what to say,” he added.
“Deep down inside I fear for what the next couple of months look like for myself. I’m sure there’ll be some dark times. I’ve just got to prepare for that now.”
Harry’s heartfelt realisation
Harry has taken to social media following his Olympics outcome to share how he’s feeling after some time to process and we’re glad to see him looking a bit more optimistic.
Sharing that he’s been “beating himself up for a couple of hours” over the events before coming to a “realisation”.
“I had this realisation that I wanted a two-decade journey to try and get that gold medal. And yes, I didn’t get that gold medal but I became my own friend in that journey,” Harry reflected.
Harry continued to explain that his self-worth was low at the beginning of the journey and now he feels like he has the relationship with himself to manage his inner-critic.
“Over the last three years, I really worked hard and trying to build my self-worth and trying to grow and evolve and be kind to myself more often. In that, I don’t get success, but I’d rather be my friend and have no success.”
Harry then got emotional as he went on to share his hopes of becoming a dad one day.
“Being a dad and not passing on negative things to my kids is really important to me. So I’m really happy that the two-decade journey wasn’t for nothing,” Harry finished.
Absolutely sensational human that the whole of Australia is cheering on right now, gold medal or not.
You can watch the Paris 2024 Olympics on 9 and 9Now. Harry Garside also appeared on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2023 which you can watch on 10Play.
