OCTOBER 2024
Matthew Perry, Jackie O and what we want from "celebrity addicts".

EXCLUSIVE: The one thing Jackie O wishes women knew about divorce.
'I let my husband handle my inheritance when my mum died. It was the biggest mistake of my life.'

One Tree Hill's Bethany Joy Lenz was in a cult for 10 years. This is the moment she knew she had to get out.
'I helped my best friend cover up her affair. Then she betrayed me in the worst way possible.'
'As my friend died of cancer, my partner and I made a life-changing decision.'
'I'd been married 12 years when I discovered everything I knew about my husband's life before me was a lie.'
Kirat was in a 10-year online relationship with 'Bobby'. But his real identity was sinister.
'I got told my work outfit was begging for attention. The internet agreed.'
Nicole endured 3 years of stalking. It started with a comment during a kids’ cricket match.
'When my dad died, I felt relieved. I've been overwhelmed with guilt ever since.'
We've been getting 'the ick' for forever. But now it's gone too far.
GINA CHICK: 'We got through cancer and the loss of our child. Then something else broke us.'
'Here are all the things my husband and I wish we knew before opening up our marriage.'
'Two of my kids have gone completely no-contact with me. Now I know why.'
'On our 10-year anniversary, my husband gave me an envelope. The contents floored me.'
NSW local Dayna got caught in the Florida hurricane. Hours in, her contractions started.
'My partner left me for a colleague as I battled cancer. It's me who had the last laugh.'
'I found deepfake porn of myself online. Then I found out who was responsible.'
CASSIE SAINSBURY: 'In 2017, I fell for my friend Wendy. It ended in the ultimate betrayal.'
'I'm 60 years old. These are my biggest regrets in life.'
'At 15, I was forced to leave home. Now a mum-of-four, I'm grateful.'
How would you feel if you saw your new husband doing this at your wedding?
Kellie Finlayson was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer at 25. She told us what's happened since.
'After I split up with my ex of two years, he sent me a spreadsheet.'
'Cal Wilson was my best friend. If I could call her, this is what I'd say.'
'When my dad got a terminal diagnosis, he did the exact opposite of what people expected.'
'I thought my sister-in-law trusted me with her kids. Then her nanny made a confession.'
The rise of the last-minute canceller — and why all your friends are doing it.
'I grew up in a cult. This was the moment I knew I had to escape.'
What’s in the rug? A mystery the internet can’t look away from.
'I thought he was a catfish, so I catfished him back. Then he flew overseas to see me.'
'I saw what the matron of honour did at the hens party. So I told the bride and got her sacked.'
'My husband went for his usual swim. After he got home, my entire world collapsed.'
'When my friend lost her job, I invited her to move in. It destroyed our friendship.'
