Tammy Hembrow celebrates an early Christmas in July with children after fleeing the country following split from husband Matt Zukowski: 'My soul needed this'
Tammy Hembrow fled the country this week after announcing her shock split from husband Matt Zukowski. The pair are headed for divorce after just seven months of marriage, and the fitness influencer has jetted off to New Zealand to rest and recuperate. And Tammy is very much in doting mother mode as she enjoys the idyllic getaway with her children. Tammy took to Instagram on Saturday to share a series of images and clips showing her and her three children — Wolf, nine, daughter Saskia, seven, and toddler Posy, three — living it up in Queenstown. The family foursome were getting into the festive spirit early, celebrating a whimsical Christmas in July.

Tammy, rugged up in a fleecy jumper, with her midriff exposed, posed happily with her brood in front of a wintry scene dotted with festive candy canes and large, illuminated Christmas presents. Another photo showed the influencer posing in front of the same scene, hugging her three children tight. There was also time for some sweet shopping too, with another shot showing her youngsters staring in wonderment through a local Queenstown candy shop window. It wouldn't be a winter escape without some skiing, and Tammy also shared a short clip of her flaunting her style on the slopes. 'Christmas in July because who doesn't love a lil winter Christmas magic?' Tammy captioned the sweet snaps. 'When I tell you my soul NEEDED thissss. Forever my favourite holiday. 'A reminder of warmth, family, the magic of slowing down & the joy that lives in the littlest moments. The cosiest first night in NZ w my babies!!' The post was met with a flurry of comments from friends and followers, with one offering: 'Glad you're enjoying your time here Mama, you deserve it always, better days are coming, sending love.' Another chimed in with a similar sentiment: 'I love this for you guys! You're an amazing mama and you're doing a great job.' Tammy announced her shock split from Matt in an emotional video on Sunday. The Love Island Australia star also revealed the couple's separation in a sombre Instagram Story, telling fans the decision was not taken lightly. 'It's with a heavy heart I share that Tammy and I have decided to separate,' Matt began. 'Both of us have struggled with making this decision; however we need to do what is right for ourselves and her three children. 'This wasn't a decision we took lightly. Our time together will always be cherished and never forgotten,' he added, before thanking fans for their support and asking for privacy. Despite their short-lived marriage, both parties have asked for privacy as they adjust to life post-breakup. 'We appreciate everyone's support and space at this time as we navigate the split,' Matt concluded in his emotional post. In a post shared to Instagram on Thursday, Tammy announced she was heading to Queenstown with her kids, before sharing footage of the family at the airport. 'Errands before our lil getaway. Honestly this couldn't have come at a more perfect time' Tammy wrote in her caption. 'Guys, give me all your Queenstown recommendations,' she added alongside a series of images in which she posed alongside her car. Tammy later addressed the split in an emotional TikTok video, telling fans she would be getting a divorce. 'I don't want to get into the details, and I want to be sensitive to everyone involved,' she told fans. 'Obviously, when you marry someone, you do it thinking that it is going to be forever, and I blame no one but myself,' Tammy continued while breaking down in tears. 'I've made not the best choices when it comes to relationships. I'm good at putting on rose-coloured glasses. 'Obviously the worst part for me is that I have kids. I don't care about me, I know I will be okay, but I feel awful.' The news came less than 24 hours after Matt was spotted spending time with sports journalist Tayla Little at the London Tavern in Melbourne. Tammy and Matt tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony at Château Du Soleil in Byron Bay on November 23. They got engaged in December 2023, following just three months of dating. The jet-setting pair became engaged in the Maldives, before heading off to Greece and Bali for luxury holidays.

Fitness influencer Kayla Itsines 'told off' for her choice of breakfast - after sharing emotional health update
Kayla Itsines has been called out by a surprising critic over her choice of breakfast food. The fitness influencer, 34, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a clip which showed her tucking into her morning meal. She appeared to be enjoying a plate of leftovers as she scooped forkfuls of pasta into her mouth - but one person was unimpressed with her culinary choices. It seems Kayla's breakfast did not sit well with her eldest child Arna, six, who was quick to call out her mother for being 'unhealthy'. 'What did you say, Arna? What's wrong with my food.' Kayla asked in the clip as she continued to enjoy her pasta. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Arna said she couldn't understand her mum's unique breakfast choice, particularly given she and little brother Jax, two, ate healthy for their first meal of the day. 'Why would you have pasta for breakfast?' she asked. 'Look at me and Jaxy and Jae [Woodroffe, Kayla's fiancé] - we're eating healthy breakfast. And that's not good breakfast. That's dinner food.' Not bowing to the dressing down, Kayla continued to enjoy her pasta breakfast while explaining to her daughter: 'It's still healthy.' Kayla shares daughter Arna with ex Tobi Pearce and Jax with fiancé Jae Woodroffe It comes after Kayla shared an emotional video this week when doctors found a lesion on her cervix. The fitness influencer posted to Instagram on Tuesday as she prepared to go to her cancer appointment a year after the lesion discovery, breaking down as she expressed her nerves. 'I had one of those appointments a year and a bit ago and they found a pre-cancerous lesion on my cervix and I had to go and get it removed,' she told her fans. The fitness influencer took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a clip which showed her tucking into her morning meal - and her choice of dish did not sit well with daughter Arna, six. 'I'm going in today and I'm so anxious,' the 34-year-old confessed to the camera with tears in her eyes. 'I'm so nervous and I'm trying to train. I don't know why I feel like I'm about to cry,' she said as her voice broke. She then posted a follow-up video as she was getting into her car to make her way to the appointment. 'I'm not going,' she began the post, before quickly backtracking. 'I'm kidding. I'm going. I'm going! 'I'm gonna go there and there's going to be nothing wrong. I'm going to be like, "Oh wow, beautiful, amazing,"' she said as she pep-talked herself. She later thanked her fans for the outpouring of support she received in the wake of her Instagram clips. In January, Kayla opened up about a shock health scare which led her to be hospitalised. Alongside a photo of her lying in a hospital bed, Kayla revealed she had been suffering from some frightening symptoms. She said she couldn't talk properly, was having trouble focusing her eyes and had a headache which felt like her 'brain was going to explode'. The post was re-shared by Instagram account Influencer Updates with Amber Paul. A second image was a photo of Kayla smiling at the camera as she wore a pair of white headphones. The image also included a screenshot of a period tracker app, displaying the words: 'Period: day 2.' 'Now, should be right mate,' she captioned the second image. 'I think @kayla_itsines is saying she was hospitalised with these symptoms and turns out it was her period coming,' Amber captioned her re-post.

Who is Aaron Buckett? First male Love island contestant revealed for 2025 series
AARON BUCKETT is a personal trainer from London who will be appearing on the upcoming summer series of Love Island. Following his exclusive reveal to The Sun as one of the first of this year's villa entries, we're sharing all the details we know about the reality star-to-be so far. 6 6 Who is Aaron Buckett? Aaron Buckett is the first male contestant to be revealed for the summer 2025 series of Love Island - and in true Love Island style, he's a tall, dark, and handsome head-turner. 'It's a fact of life that girls go crazy for a tall lad, and Aaron is a man mountain," a source exclusively shared with The Sun. 'He's got great chat too." Standing at a staggering 6 feet 5 inches and stacked with muscle, he's sure to catch the eyes of his fellow contestants in the villa no matter when his entrance ends up being. 'Aaron is in the mix for this year's cast, but execs are still finalising whether he'll be in the opening line-up or as a tempting bombshell,' the source continued. And while we'll need to wait until his official introduction on Love Island to find out his age, we do know that the muscular 'man mountain' lives in London. What does Aaron Buckett do for a living? As evidenced by his build, Aaron is a personal trainer, who shares his workouts with tens of thousands of followers across both his Instagram and TikTok pages. As of May 2025, he has a total of 3.7k followers on Instagram, and 13.3k on TikTok. In addition to documenting his fitness routines and toned physique, he also offers an online workout plan, which fans can purchase for £49.99. Who else will be joining Aaron Buckett in the Love Island villa? Aaron Buckett will be joined by Lucy Quinn, a 20-year-old make-up artist from Liverpool who is expected to enter the villa as a bombshell. 6 This year marks a decade since the show first aired in 2015. And between the cast reveals and a 10-year anniversary special featuring fan favourite couples such as 2021 winners Millie Court and Liam Reardon and 2022's second runners-up Indiyah Polack and Dami Hope, it's shaping up to be an unforgettable summer. The Majorcan villa is also undergoing a major makeover, with aerial images showing that the firepit is now purple. While the look of villa may be changing, The Sun can also exclusively share that the iconic voice of the show, Iain Stirling, isn't going anywhere — and neither is the spin-off show AfterSun, according to host Maya Jama. 6 6 But when can we anticipate this summer's series to drop? An official series premiere date is notably absent from both announcement teaser on ITV's Instagram and the recently-dropped trailer, but despite that, we can anticipate a season full of "twists". "This year I want more drama, more bombshells, more break-ups, more makeups," Maya says while standing at the head of a boardroom table in the trailer. "I want more twists, I want more twists than ever."
