Bachelor Richie has found love on The Bachelor!

The blonde beau has confirmed his new happiness after handing out his final rose in Bali last week.

Speaking to The Daily Telegraph, Australia’s fourth Bachelor Richie Strahan confirmed the news that he had indeed found love on the popular dating show.

“I’m definitely happy,” the 30-year-old hunk began. “This has been such an unreal, crazy rollercoaster ride and I’ve loved every moment of it.”

As the down-to-earth rope technician confirms that he handed out his final rose whilst shooting in Bali last week, hearts collectively break across the country for the loss of what is undoubtedly one of Australia’s best catches.

And while the reality show star basks in the happiness of finding new love, he also fears that the identity of the lucky lady will be leaked before the show hits the small screen this winter.

The WA local is quite the catch.

Over the weekend it was reported by The Daily Telegraph that Channel Ten producers had called in the Indonesian military to keep paparazzi from snapping shots while they filmed the final episode in the tropical location.

“Keen paps even tried to hire helicopters once they had touched down on the Indonesian island, only to be told ‘all choppers are grounded for maintenance for two days,'” wrote the publication.

Despite the show’s attempts to keep the outcome under wraps, it is understood that photographers still “got the money shot” and know the name of the winning lady.

While Richie came in third on Sam Frost’s season of The Bachelorette, her happy ending was spoiled by leaked photos.

Speaking out on the reports, Richie shared his desire to keep the identity of the winner a secret for the public’s enjoyment.

“Everybody worked so hard to create something and it’s an amazing journey,” he said.

“It’s like when you watch Game of Thrones every week and you’re biting at the bit to see the next episode. And for someone to spoil that? You’re like, ‘No! Why? I wanted to see it.”

“With The Bachelorette, towards the end we were all in and out of cars which felt very spy-ish. But when you think about being overseas and getting into cars with umbrellas just in case … It’s been absolutely crazy.”

Season four of The Bachelor is expected to his our screens in the coming months.

Keeping up with the Kardashian booty takes a matrix!

The Kardashians know how to keep their bodies looking on point. Whether it is thanks to a diet (here’s looking at you Kim) or the latest pair of Yeezys – the famous sisters are the fittest siblings out.

chloe-lal

But the core of their phenomenal bodies is credited to their insane workout regime.

Introducing the man behind showbiz’s most famous bodies – the Kardashian’s trainer Don aka Don-A-Matrix.

Khloe and Kourtney have been killing the fitness game, thanks to this machine of a trainer!

Check out some of the crazy workouts in the video player below. Post continues!

The personal trainer, who crafts circuit workouts that target the legs, butt, and arms, works with Hollywood’s fittest including Kanye West, Fergie, Josh Duhamel, Will.i.am and David Boreanaz.

The lifestyle coach not only has a science degree in Health, Physical Education and Recreation but also certificates in a range of workout regimes.

Don, who goes by DB, developed the Matrix Method combining his skills as a fitness educator and principles learned as a lifetime athlete and coach.

The LA based trainer’s clients love his “sports game” inspired method which features four quarters. Each quarter has 3 sets of two different exercises, combined with rest or relief periods after each quarter.

Don certainly knows how to make these ladies sweat…

But clearly they’re loving the results!

Anyone who watches the Kourt or Khloe’s Snapchat will know these ladies love working out with their machine of an expert… Even if it is SERIOUSLY intense!

The sisters train with the expert 3-5 times a week and workout for anything between 45 minutes to an hour.

Speaking to E!News Don revealed it was Kourt who first discovered him.

“I was on tour with the Black Eyed Peas and Kourtney attended a concert while in NYC, and she loved how I had Fergie’s body looking,” he said.

Watch Don talk about working out. Post continues!

In fact it was her trainer that whipped her revenge body back in shape following the birth of her third child, Reign.

Understandably, the 37-year-old, who is in the best shape of her life, “swears by the program.”

“Along with weight loss, her body fat percentage and fat mass has decreased tremendously and lean muscle mass has increased. Most people think it’s just weight loss to achieve the desired physical goal, but toning while achieving weight loss will help you get to the physical goal faster,” Don explained of the changes in the hot mama’s body.

So what does the reality star love to do?

“The plank is a favorite, but we take it to another level opening and closing the legs like scissors while at the same time raising and dropping the hips! So not only are you strengthening the core but also timing the hips, thighs and waist.”

Continuing, “[We also do] the trunk twist along with a back row using the bands. The benefit of this exercise will give you flat abs and coke bottle obliques while removing those fat handles from the back and arms.”

We’re officially putting down the chocolate and heading to the gym. STAT.

Try keeping up with that bod!

8 foods to help heal your headache

Head pounding? Before you reach for the painkillers, try nibbling on some of these nutrient-loaded foods.

Now to Love

Not all headaches are caused by the same thing – hangovers, we’re looking at you – which means that not every headache can be cured the same way.

But identifying why your head is pounding can help you decide which nutrient your body is craving, and which of these healing foods you should be tucking into.

Baked potato: Yes, it’s time to get carb-y, especially if your headache is alcohol-related. If you indulged in one too many wines last night, you’ll not only be dehydrated but could also have lost plenty of electrolytes – like potassium. Loading up on foods packed with potassium (a baked potato with skin on contains 721 mg of the stuff) can set you on the path to recovery, quicksticks.

Watermelon: Dehydration is usually to blame when your head starts pounding, so upping your water intake is an important first step. Nibble on water-rich foods like the aptly named watermelon, as well as cucumber, melon and tomatoes. Delicious watermelon and mint granita is a soothing hit of hydration.

Watermelon and mint granita

Whole-grains: Sticking with the carbohydrate theme: if your diet has been low on carbs lately, you may have depleted your glycogen stores. That, in turn, triggers an increase in fluid losses, which can lead to dehydration. Plus, healthy carbohydrates help your body release serotonin, which will improve your mood. Win-win! Start your day with a warming bowl of apple and banana porridge.

Almonds: Nuts are being increasingly celebrated for their health benefits and almonds are no different. They’re packed with magnesium, which relaxes blood vessels and soothes headaches; grab a 30 gram handful for a headache-healing snack.

Yoghurt: Your brain needs calcium to function efficiently, so your headache could be your body’s way of telling you it needs more of this essential nutrient. Yoghurt is also a great source of probiotics, which helps to keep your gut happy, too.

Spinach: Get some greens on your plate! Spinach and other leafy green vegetables have been shown to decrease blood pressure – and may even prevent hangovers. Spinach is rich in anti-oxidants as well, and is a great way to up your iron intake if you follow a meat-free diet. Whip up pasta with spinach, mushrooms and almonds.

Sesame seeds: Not only are these crunchy little nuggets another great source of magnesium, they’re rich in vitamin E, which can help prevent migraines during menstruation. If you find your head pounding while you have your period, try nibbling on ginger and sesame seed logs.

Coffee: No, we’re not giving you permission to spend the day sinking soy lattes, but coffee can relax blood vessels and alleviate a headache. Don’t go overboard though; too much java can lead to dehydration. Kick the headache with one, delicious cup and then sip on plenty of water.

Why Renee Zellweger quit Hollywood for six years

She starred in 20 movies between 2000 – 2010 but then, she vanished.

Now to Love

She’s starred in some of the biggest films of all time – from Cold Mountain to Bridget Jones’s Diary – but Renee Zellweger called it quits from Tinseltown six years ago.

Scroll down for video

“I got sick of the sound of my own voice: it was time to go way and grow up a bit,” she told British Vogue.

Renee in 2004 when she won the Academy Award for best Supporting Actress for Cold Mountain

The 47-year-old found she needed to take a break from the glitz and glam of Hollywood in order to do her job well.

“I found anonymity, so I could have exchanges with people on a human level and be seen and heard, not be defined by this image that precedes me when I walk into a room,” she told the publication.

“You cannot be a good storyteller if you don’t have life experiences, and you can’t relate to people.”

Renee, who starred in 20 movies between 2000 and 2010, is returning soon to our screens for Bridget Jones’s Baby.

“I put on a few pounds,” she said of her role.

“I also put on some breasts and a baby bump.”

“Bridget is a perfectly normal weight and I’ve never understood why it matters so much. No male actor would get such scrutiny if he did the same thing for a role.”

Lauren Brant and Barry Hall reportedly spotted kissing

The unlucky in love starlet may have found a fresh romance with her former I’m A Celeb co-star!

Now to Love

According to a report from The Daily Telegraph Lauren Brant and AFL star Barry Hall, who starred on last year’s I’m A Celeb, enjoyed a cosy night together at Brisbane hotspot Beat Megaclub over the weekend.

“They were very cuddly, touchy feely and kissing,” a witness claimed to the publication.

Meanwhile a rep for the club confirmed the reality stars were indeed at the venue. “I let them through security at the front door,” the spokesperson said.

While Lauren, 27, and Barry, 39, are yet to comment on the claims, the former Hi-5 songstress shared a photo from their night out to her Instagram account.

“This is me in a very happy place!!! With these two beauties,” the singer penned alongside a snap of her with Barry and their fellow I’m A Celeb pal, Joel Creasey.

Last year, Woman’s Day revealed Lauren had split with her fiance Warren following her affair with Beau Ryan.

“This is me in a very happy place!” Lauren penned alongside this snap with Joel and Barry.

In our exclusive, Warren explained he discovered his wife-to-be was cheating after he unearthed text messages on his phone.

“It’s kind of a punch in the stomach. I felt completely sick,” Warren admitted at the time.

Meanwhile footy star Beau has never confirmed the details of his relationship with the children’s entertainer, only speaking out on the subject to request privacy.

“Firstly, I just want to apologise to all the people that have been hurt recently,” Beau said during his grand final appearance on The Footy Show last year.

“It’s been really, really hard for myself and my family, and everyone involved. But, I’m not here to talk about my private life,” the father-of-one revealed.

Snip snip! Victoria Beckham chops off her long locks

The mother-of-four has taken to Instagram with a seriously stunning new do!

Now to Love

We’ve seen many different looks from Victoria Beckham over her career, but after five years of long dark tresses, we thought she had her signature look set.

Now it would seem that Posh is ready to spice things up, the mother-of-four is sporting a new, fresh ‘do… A little part of us wishes that she’d throwback to her iconic spiked pixie cut

“#chopchop,” the 42-year-old posted a sneak peek of her hair.

Joining her in the selfie was Luke Hersheson who is the creative director for Hershesons and John Frieda Products and Wendy Rowe, make-up artist for Burberry Beauty. Both Wendy and Luke worked on creating the posh hairstyle.

Debuting her new tresses in full, the fashion designer took to Instagram with another snap, this time sitting in the sun showing off her lightened lob which was decorated by a handmade daisy chain.

The mother of Brooklyn, 17, Romeo, 13, Cruz, 11, and Harper, four has officially joined the lob movement.

And it seems that fans of the former Spice Girl are absolutely loving her new relaxed mop.

“Hair looks amazing this length and colour. The best I’ve seen!” one excited fan wrote with another adding that the new chop made the star appear more youthful.

“Loving the new hair! Another 10yrs off. Close to 15yrs old now!”

The triple threat is known as a hair chameleon in the industry.

Her new tousled mane is undoubtedly one of the more relaxed mops by the former Spice Girl, who has worn almost every ‘do under the sun.

When the Spice Girls rose to global fame in 1994, a then-20-year-old Victoria defined her style as the ‘Posh’ one with a sleek, dark brunette bob.

A few years on, she switched up her look for a shorter, choppier pixie cut. This look inspired young women everywhere to make the chop, and soon became one of the most sought after looks in salons across the world.

For better or for worse… Both Posh and Becks have undergone some serious hair transformations in their time.

There have been some bold choices along the way…

After her engagement to football star David Beckham, the A-lister started growing out her bangs, and began to lighten up with blonde highlights.

But it wasn’t long before she discovered just how much fun blondes have, and soon she was sporting long, striped caramel locks, made possible by the help of extensions.

Watch the video below to relive the moment Posh and Becks sported matching blonde crew cuts! Post continues…

After a brief rekindling with the iconic Posh bob in the late ‘00s, the fashion designer finally settled on long brown extensions – a look which she has proudly donned since.

Until now, of course!

Until this week, VB donned the long extensions for 5 years.

Why Crocs are bad for your health

You might not want to bring out your Crocs anymore.

Now to Love

They’re the shoe that have divided people for years: Crocs.

Scroll down for video

You either love them or hate them.

Many lovers include celebs like Helen Mirren and even Duchess Kate.

However, social media loves to hate them.

And now, further fuelling the argument of the haters, a podiatrist has come out and slammed the shoe but for health reasons.

“Unfortunately, Crocs are not suitable for all-day use,” Dr. Megan Leahy, a Chicago-based podiatrist with the Illinois Bone and Joint Institute, told the Huffington Post.

“These shoes do not adequately secure the heel,” she said.

“When the heel is unstable, toes tend to grip which can lead to tendinitis, worsening of toe deformities, nail problems, corns and calluses.”

“The same thing can happen with flip-flops or any backless shoes as the heel is not secured.”

Dr Alex Kor, the president of the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine, also told the publication that the most important part of any shoe is the shank – a supportive structure that rests between the heel and the toe and runs underneath the arch of the foot.

“Patients are more likely to have foot pain if their shoes bend in the shank,” she said.

“I see patients who come into my office complaining of arch or heel pain and they are wearing Crocs.”

The rock star’s daughter that almost convinced the world that she was dating Prince Harry

There aren’t many gals or guys that would turn down a photo with royalty…But with a fab selfie comes great power.

chloe-lal

Olivia Tallent discovered she had uncovered the motherload of selfies.

The college daughter of Garry Tallent, bassist for Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band, was the lucky individual that got to take a snap with Britain’s most eligible bachelor, Prince Harry.

The pretty brunette met the royal after he headed backstage following the band’s concert at London’s Wembley Stadium on June 5.

Prince Harry posed for a pic with Olivia.

“Princess Olivia has a nice ring to it doesn’t it?” the 19-year-old playfully captioned the snap, completed with a princess emoji, of course!

Social media soon went into meltdown with fans across the globe realising they weren’t prepared for Harry to no long be our swoon-worthy and single prince.

Olivia, not making matters any better, also shared the snap on Twitter, simply penning, “New boyfriend.”

Before we start comparing Olivia to her royal counterpart cough – Duchess Catherine, anyone?!, the University of Arizona student decided to let everyone know she was in fact joking.

The Prince is VERY dateable…

“I’m not actually dating Prince Harry, guys. Let’s not be ridiculous here,” she tweeted.

So, I guess we still have a single Prince on our hands.

But it seems like the 31-year-old has found a way around his singledom.

It would seem that the former military man is interested in heading to reality TV for his quest for love.

Paddy McGuinness, host of UK reality dating show Take Me Out, revealed during a chat to BBC Radio One that Harry approached him on a night out and asked him if he could take part.

“We’re having something to drink in the evening and who do I bump into? Prince Harry,” he began.

“He walks in the room [and] he comes straight up to me and he goes, ‘I want to be on your show – I want to go to Fernando’s [the island dates get whisked away to].'”

Captain Wales has admitted his desire to settle down and have a family.

“I was like, I don’t think you need the help,” Paddy laughed as he recalled the conversation.

The British personality admitted both he and his friends were shocked by Harry’s request.

“I’m a lad from Bolton and I’ve got a prince of England asking me if he can go to Fernando’s,” he chuckled.

“It doesn’t get much better than that. All the lads had their mouths open thinking, ‘what the hell happened?'”
