EXCLUSIVE: Geoff Huegill & Sara Hills’ incredible Bali wedding
It was the fairytale wedding every bride and groom hopes for, and when Aussie champion Geoff Huegill exchanged vows with long-time love Sara Hills in a magical Bali ceremony, it all went just swimmingly. Geoff, 32, and his love Sara, 27, took the plunge before an intimate group of 50 close family and friends at the exclusive Bulgari resort. With the bride radiant in Collette Dinnigan, and the groom slick in Hugo Boss, the couple recited their own vows: „Today I will marry my best friend, the one I have laughed with and cried with, the one I have learned from and shared with...‟, and spent the night dancing away to tunes by Katy Perry and Damien Rice. „It felt amazing to look at this beautiful woman before me, and to be able to proudly call her my wife,‟ Geoff tells New Idea in this exclusive interview.
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Mitchell Johnson’s mum’s heartbreak: ‘Mitchell got married and I didn’t know’
It was just a simple message but it seemed to signal the end of a bitter feud between fast bowler Mitchell Johnson and his mum Vikki Harber. „Happy Mother‟s Day, Love Mitchell,‟ the Aussie cricketer wrote in a one-line email that reduced battler Vikki to tears of joy. But her delight soon disappeared when just two days later she discovered 29-year-old Mitchell had married his fiancée Jessica Bratich behind her back, on the Friday before Mother‟s Day. „Can you imagine? I‟m gutted,‟ the mother-of-five said in an exclusive interview with New Idea. „The rest of the family was left to learn what had happened through Mitchell‟s Facebook status… I was devastated.‟
DWTS’ unlikely favourite Brynne Edelsten bares all
No-one has copped it more from the DWTS judges than Brynne Edelstein, but she‟s determined to fight on. Now Brynne has bared all in an interview with New Idea, explaining that after years of bullying, she‟s used to being the underdog. Growing up in the US, Brynne was so skinny that classmates cruelly dubbed her „anorexic‟. „It sounds silly looking at me now,‟ she says proudly of her gorgeous curves. „My mum used to tell me that kids can be mean when they‟re jealous. You‟ve just gotta take it and move on.‟
EXCLUSIVE: Michael Chamberlain’s most explosive interview yet
More than 30 years after his daughter Azaria was taken from an Ayers Rock campsite by a dingo, Michael Chamberlain has laid bare his deepest feelings over the case - and his feelings about his ex-wife Lindy in an exclusive interview with New Idea. Foremost in his mind is to finally get to the bottom of claims that an unknown person interfered with his daughter‟s body after she was killed by a dingo. His quest follows conspiracy theories that Azaria‟s remains were covered up, perhaps to protect reputations, wildlife or local tourism. "People have asked me: “What new can you say?” And my answer is: “Just wait and see.”‟
