Elle magazine Australia has come under fire from critics for playing down the June issue which features model Nicole Trunfio breastfeeding her son Zion Rain, 4 months. However, it’s not the fact that she’s breastfeeding that’s caused the uproar — it’s that the cover in question is only available for subscribers of the magazine. In all store copies the supermodel is on the front cover in a different shot holding her little boy.
Critics say having two separate issues and not making the one showing her breastfeeding exclusively available for everyone to buy is sending out a completely negative attitude towards something that’s so natural. Many readers have also commented via Elle‘s Facebook page expressing their disgust about the issue not being readily available.
However, Editor-In-Chief of Elle, Justine Cullen says that that particular shot wasn’t actually planned and was just a bonus picture for loyal subscribers.
‘This wasn’t a contrived situation: Zion needed a feed, Nicole gave it to him, and when we saw how beautiful they looked we simply moved her onto the set. It was a completely natural moment that resulted in a powerful picture.”

When you’re a working mum it can often mean that you can’t do the daily school runs yourself because of the timings of your job. For Spice Girl Emma Bunton, her’s is no different. She’s unable to do mornings because she’s one half of Heart FM‘s breakfast show with co-host Jamie Theakston. However, she is grateful that the early 6am start means she is able to at least be there to pick up sons Beau Lee, 7, from school and Tate Lee, 4, from nursery. Speaking to Essentials magazine, she said:
“I’m lucky that I work in the mornings, so generally I’m home in time to pick up Tate from nursery, then go to get Beau from school.”
But the 39-year old admits her over-enthusiastic demeanour at the school gates doesn’t go down too well with Beau — who finds his mum embarrassing.
“I literally grab them and squeeze them and kiss them. Beau’s only seven and he’s already like, ‘Eurgh Mum, get off!’”
“But I can’t help myself. I know it’s probably going to have to stop soon, so I’m making the most of it while I can.

When you find out you’re pregnant you start to plan out your birthing plan — do you want a home birth? water birth? Pain relief? However, no matter how much you map it all out — sometimes the experience can be a thousand worlds apart from what you expect or want. When singer Kimberley Walsh gave birth to son Bobby Jay on September 4th 2014, her delivery was also one that wasn’t as straight forward as she’d envisioned. Speaking to Mother & Baby magazine, she said:
I opted for an epidural before he was born. It would have been absolutely horrific without one.
Bobby turned at the last minute making it virtually impossible to push him out. If I had panicked I would have ended up with a C-section and it was very touch and go.
The doctors had to use forceps to move his head down and when he came out his face was looking up at us!

Country singer Brad Paisley and his actress wife Kimberly are the cover stars of the recent issue of PEOPLE magazine along with sons William Huckleberry, 2, and Jasper Warren, 4 1/2 months.
Speaking of making the transition of one child to two children Kimberly says:
“Two feels like more than two. It feels like five sometimes! But we’re so fortunate that Jasper is happy most of the time.”
And unlike many celebrity parents, the Paisley’s rely on family and friends instead of a nanny when they have work commitments or a little ‘me’ time.
Says Brad: “
“We have a couple of trusted friends and babysitters and two sets of grandparents. We don’t have anybody on payroll. That was a big deal for me. I’m lucky that my parents are in such good shape, and they are only 60.
“The other night, I called my mom and said, ‘We’re thinking about going to see a movie. What are you guys doing later?’ And they said, ‘We were just going to get something to eat, and we’ll come by when we’re done.’ They came and put Huck down and fed Jasper, and then we went to that movie. It’s nice to do that and then come home and know that they are with their grandparents and they are having a better time than when we’re here…and learning more probably!”
If there’s one thing that 7-month-old Dexter Lloyd Henson loves, it’s attention. So when more than 100 guests gathered on Saturday, August 29th, at the the family’s farmhouse in Wales for a party to celebrate his Christening, Charlotte Church and Gavin Henson‘s little boy was in his element.
As with the Christening last year of Dexter’s big sister Ruby Megan, 2 on September 20th, the service itself was an intimate affair, attended only by immediate family and godparents — but come the evening all the stops were pulled out, with continious entertainment, a fully stocked bar, fireworks and food in a giant marquee in their garden.
Like his mother, sister and grandmother, Dexter’s baptism took place at St Mary of the Angels Catholic Church in Cardiff. Father Christopher Delaney, who baptised Charlotte as a baby and who baptised Ruby last year, conducted the service.
“Everyone knows Father Delaney,” says Charlotte. “He has been around since my mum was at school. He’s brilliant because it’s all quite informal, and rather than just saying the words, he explains each part of the service as he goes along. He usually gives a little serman in the middle of it all, which is generally very charismatic and funny. He’s a real charecter — and reminds me of [Comedy actor] Gene Wilder.”
Charlotte’s best friend Naomi Holland, whom she has known since she was five, was chosen as Dexter’s godmother, and executive producer Nick Fiveash, who has known her since she was 14, was godfather.
“I was going to ask my friend Kyla to be godmother as well, but she just had a baby herself and I didn’t want to put too much responsibility on her. We’ve chosen people who are going to play a big part in Dexter’s life anyway and guide him on his spiritual path.”
When he arrived for the church service, little Dexter looked super cute in linen shorts and baby socks with crosses on them — from childrens wear company Little Darlings. Meanwhile, Ruby, who turned up clutching her favourite blue elephant, looked like a princess in a white satin dress, which was also from Little Darlings, and was dotted with diamante.
Just before the party kicked off, proud parents Charlotte and Gavin sat down with Hello! for a chat about the day so far, what was in store next and their future plans.

GMTV presenter Kate Garraway and husband Derek Draper feature as the cover stars in this week’s OK! magazine with newborn son William – or Billy as they will be calling him for short. She and husband Derek also have three year old daughter Darcey Mary.
The pictures were actually taken exactly one week after their son’s July 28th birth and it’s hard to imagine whilst looking at a radiently smiling Kate, that she went through quite a traumatic experience during the birth. Explains Kate,
“At one point the baby was very active and wriggling around and slipped to the back of my back which meant the midwife suddenly couldn’t hear his heartbeat. It was only for three minutes but to me it felt like an hour and I just thought: ‘Oh God.’
is ‘beside herself’ about her new baby brother.
When asked if they’d like to add to their brood, Kate replies,
“I’d do feel like I want one more but I might be high on hormones. I said to Derek: ‘I’ve really got the swing of this now.’ But maybe I should wait until he’s a month old or teething!’
