Sia, 49, and Too Hot To Handle star, 28, spark romance rumours as they hold hands on date
Sia has sparked romance rumours with an unexpected candidate after she was snapped enjoying a dinner date with fellow Australian Harry Jowsey. The singer was seen stepping out in Los Angeles with the Too Hot To Handle star, looking very happy as she walked hand-in-hand with him after dining at the Ca Del Sole Restaurant.
Sia, 49, wore a long black maxi dress layered underneath a black coat and slouchy leopard print boots for the outing, as Harry, 28, opted for green chinos and a green coat, with a white t-shirt and white trainers. The unlikely pairing sees an age-gap of over 20 years and comes just days after Sia was also snapped out for a walk with a man she was also seen with in LA back on March 21.
Her outing with the bearded man came just two days after she filed for divorce from her second husband Dan Bernad. She filed the paperwork after 26 months of being man and wife.
The documents reportedly list the couple's date of separation as Tuesday, March 18 - meaning she filed almost immediately on deciding to call it quits on their relationship.
She cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split - with the paperwork also containing another bombshell. The couple are parents to an one-year-old baby boy named Somersault Wonder Bernard who was born on March 27 2024.
Sia asked for both legal and physical custody of the infant - but has not opposed visitation rights for Daniel. Sia also chose to check the box which would terminate the court awarding any spousal support to her husband.
There is no information available on whether or not the couple signed a prenup before they got married. The pair wed in December 2022 and Daniel was Sia's second husband.
She first got married to Erik Anders Lang, but they divorced in 2016 after just over two years of marriage. Sia is already a mom to two teenage boys who she took guardianship of in 2019 when they were both 18 and just about to exit the foster care system.
Back in 2020, Sia told GQ that she wanted to remain "single for the rest of my life" after her divorce from golf documentarian Erik. They got married at her home in Palm Springs, California, in August 2014.
One of her adopted sons is now the proud father of twins - meaning she is also a grandmother-of-two. Harry meanwhile was confirmed to be in a "super casual" relationship with Pretty Little Liars star Lucy Hale earlier this year.
He was also Previously linked to Jessica Vestal, his co-star in Perfect Match's season two, with the pair splitting shortly after the show ended.
He has also dated several other influencers and reality stars including ex-fiancé Francesca Farago and Georgia Hassarati, as well as a brief rumoured romance with Kylie Jenner's BFF Anastasia 'Stassie' Karanikolaou back in 2020.

Hedwig and the Angry Inch
Ed's Note: Hailed by Rolling Stone as 'the best rock musical ever', Hedwig and the Angry Inch is on now at Sydney's Carriageworks (you can buy tickets over here). Time Out critic Guy Webster reviewed the production last month when it was on at Melbourne's Athenaeum Theatre. Read on for his five-star review... ***** Imagine The Rocky Horror Picture Show's Frank-N-Furter raised in the American Midwest by Vivienne Westwood. Or Debbie Harry, if she grew up in a queer bathhouse in East Berlin. That's Hedwig Schmidt: the glam-rock heart of Stephen Trask and John Cameron Mitchell's Hedwig and the Angry Inch, brought to spectacular life in the first Aussie revival since 2006. You have to picture this show as it began – in a sweaty basement club called the SqueezeBox during New York's punk scene in 1994. This was a place where a house band performed rock tunes called 'the music of gay bashers', and punters put on messy drag to kick, scream and vamp on stage beside them. Hedwig was born out of this energy; a combination of cigarette ash, anarchism and smut inspired by Cameron Mitchell's life in Berlin and Kansas and soundtracked by Trask's work with the SqueezeBox band. It's the closest I've come to calling a musical 'punk' without rolling my eyes. With its taboo-flouting lead and the unbridled chaos of its style, it is still as genuinely transgressive as it was thirty years ago. This production succeeds by replicating the intimacy and anger that created the show in the first place. We're somewhere in the Midwest waiting for Hedwig to start a 90-minute cabaret performance accompanied by her band, the Inch. The set (by Jeremy Allen) evokes an industrial warehouse and a dive-bar in one: think a simple circular rise centre stage with a staircase at the back furnished with cooly metallic scaffolds and exposed wire. And the costumes (designed by Nicol and Ford) cover the stellar cast – who also double as the on-stage band – in patchwork denim and glam rock glitter. For the uninitiated, the show might seem a little impenetrable at first. There's not much of a plot, really. It's a series of loosely connected anecdotes drawn from Hedwig's life that are both surreal and debaucherous. She's gorging on gummy bears in a ditch by the Berlin Wall, discovering Lou Reed while locked in an oven, or recounting her botched gender-affirming surgery in graphic detail. But it's not a cohesive storyline that propels Hedwig and the Angry Inch. It's vibes, and Hedwig herself. Seann Miley Moore is transcendent as our glamour goddess, achieving the perfect balance of taboo-flouting confidence, unpredictability and thinly-veiled fragility in between high kicks, soaring top notes and horny audience ad libs. As her husband, the retired drag queen Yitzhak, Adam Noviello offers a soulful counterpoint: brooding, pissy, stoic. Noviello's operatic vibrato and Moore's buttery tone combine beautifully to fill the Athenaeum Theatre to overflowing. The vibe, meanwhile, resembles that propulsive brand of chaos you find drunk at an impromptu four am drag show – all sweat, screams and in-cast fighting underscored to a pub-rock backbeat (and the occasionally eerie theremin from expert music director, Victoria Falconer). It is refreshing to see a show that avoids the trap many other revivals of queer theatrical classics fall into by leaning into its transgressiveness instead of a nostalgia-heavy approach that would relegate it to being a mere artefact of a recent past. Co-directors Shane Anthony and Dino Dimitriadis have worked hard to faithfully replicate the show's underground origins for the mainstage, leaving its essential edge intact. We're clapping along to Hedwig's anthem for sugar daddies or watching a group of unsuspecting audience members don blonde wigs to join in on the chorus of 'Wig in a Box'. Even tropes like glitter bombs and balloon drops feel intimate in their immersiveness. Moore also never shies away from Hedwig's flaws, whether via her morally dubious actions or jarring ad libs. In a world as risk-adverse as mainstage musical theatre, her thornier characteristics – matched by equally unbridled design and direction – make for a show that feels authentic and even quietly radical. We talk a lot about the mainstreaming of queer culture these days. Look! There's a Pride flag shirt at Target, another off-shoot of Ru Paul's Drag Race, another green-lit Ryan Murphy series or another cop at Mardi Gras. We should be critical of connecting political progress with Absolut Vodka bottles covered in rainbow flags, or a floating shark decked out in Pride colours. But there hasn't been a rainbow-coloured corporate wave for Pride this year, or even a tepid ripple. Late last month J.K. Rowling created an organisation dedicated to offering legal funding designed to support transphobia. This week there's the possibility of a Pride march in Tel Aviv while Palestinians are murdered in line waiting for aid. SqueezeBox has been closed for years. I do not mean to imply that this production of Hedwig and the Angry Inch is somehow politically radical or world changing. It's not going to force us marching into the streets to protest queer freedoms – to throw new 'bricks' in defence of new 'Stonewalls'. But it did have nearly 880 people laughing at Moore doing an impression of an owl as they treated Rowling's transphobia with all the ridiculousness it deserves. It did end with us leaping to our feet to applaud a cast of gender-diverse people telling a story of connection and identity that began more than thirty years ago in a small club somewhere on the margins. Where this production succeeds is in making us believe that Hedwig Schmidt would at least lead us outside and hand us a brick – and that we'd have cause, mixed with a healthy dose of punk-like anger, to throw it with her.

Neighbours legend sparks rumours he's joining UK soap after bosses savagely axed show for a second time
He had a fun cameo on the show in 2022 NEIGHBOURS legend Alan Fletcher has revealed he wants to land a TV role in the UK and would love to "gatecrash" EastEnders. The 68-year-old Aussie soap veteran is currently focused on his music career and a 34-date UK and Ireland tour.

The long-running soap has come to an end after Amazon MGM Studios decided against making more episodes beyond 2025. Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Alan says: "Like a lot of Aussie actors, I would crave to come and work in the UK. And I'm looking to try and find myself a UK agent because I think the UK makes some of the best television in the world. "I think in terms of comedy, which I love to be involved in, the Brits are like the Australians. We do understand satire and so there's incredibly sharp and witty television made here. "And in terms of drama, the thing I really love about being in the UK is seeing how older actors, and I put myself in that bracket now, how older actors really get a good run on television and film. And some of the best UK actors, of course, are the older contingents." Alan previously had a cameo in Albert Square in 2022 when he popped into the Bridge Street café and asked for a taxi. Kellie Bright's starstruck Linda Carter was lamenting Neighbours coming to an end (it was previously shelved in 2022) when Alan stepped in. Regarding a possible return to the show, Alan says: "That would be enormous fun as well, just to sort of gatecrash EastEnders. I actually went in and filmed a little skit of them a few years ago, which was enormous fun. Yeah, so there's all sorts of doors opening." But for now music takes precedence. He explains: "Now that I can dedicate myself to music, it takes an enormous amount of time to write and produce and record music and then to plan tours and to get out on the road. So, you know, it's an exhausting job." I collapsed after being rescued from terrifying drowning on Neighbours set, reveals Karl Kennedy star Alan Fletcher "I mean, this tour I'm on now around the UK, this is 34 venues. It's the length and breadth of the country. The logistics alone are incredible to plan, not to mention ticket selling. "So it's a very testing experience, and it's one I embrace and want to do more of." The Karl Kennedy star is on the promo trail for his latest single, Back To School, a poignant ballad on how to nurture a loving relationship. "The title was about what I've learnt in studying philosophy, that love is something you can't take for granted, you have to really look at it," says Alan. "I mean, that's a bit of a cliche, but a lot of people don't spend the time. So it's really saying, let's get back to school and learn how to love. "It's a very musical, laid-back track, and it gets a great reaction from people." Both Alan and wife Jennifer went back to school, as it were, when they attended a lecture on love by philosopher Alain de Botton that helped to improve their own relationship. "It was quite transformative for us, because it reminds us that perfect love is a bit of an 18th century creation," says Alan. "And in reality, we all love each other's flaws, rather than trying to change each other. "And once we heard that, and kind of accepted that, and went, 'yes, absolutely, that's what it is'. So now if either one of us in the relationship do something that the other one would normally think is annoying or troublesome, now we look at it and go, 'oh, it's adorable that you do that'. 4 Alan has played Karl Kennedy since the mid-90s Credit: Courtesy of Freevee 4 The tour comprises of 34 dates and is underway now Credit: Lime Tree Music "So just accepting that we are who we are, and trying to change people, mold them to be the perfect human being, is a waste of time." At the tail end of last year Alan also released a classic slice of Americana in Tell 'Em, a duet with Jennifer that tells the tale of lost love. "It really is the first cut, the deepest I suppose, that notion of the first relationship you have and how it kind of never leaves you, even though you break up and move on with your life and you have other loves, there's some little tiny part of you that's still wishes that somehow you've been able to work it out all those years ago. "So essentially just saying, look, I know we'll never be together, but I just think of you all the time, or in flashes." Both tracks will be joining Alan on his tour which is taking place now and runs until September.
