No Comments on The heartbreaking voicemail Olivia Newton-John’s daughter Chloe Lattanzi left Richard Wilkins

Richard Wilkins has played the heartbreaking message Olivia Newton-John’s daughter Chloe Lattanzi left him following the death of her mother at age 73.

The actress and singer died peacefully at her home in Southern California on Monday morning, surrounded by family and friends. Her husband John Easterling announced her death on her Facebook page.

‘Chloe Lattanzi, Olivia’s daughter, sent me a beautiful message earlier today, which I played and raised again,’ Richard revealed on Wednesday’s episode of the Today show, as he held back tears.

This is the heartbreaking message Olivia Newton-John’s daughter Chloe Lattanzi left Today’s entertainment editor Richard Wilkins (pictured) following the death of her mother aged 73

‘And I said to her, “I would never do it without your permission. Would you like me to share your beautiful message with her many friends and fans on-air?”

‘And she said, “Yes, please. Tell them how much their love is helping me cope. I want to be a link for them. Give light, give thanks, gratitude. I’m holding you in my heart.”‘

‘Hi Richard, this is Chloe, I just saw your beautiful tribute to my mummy,’ the message read.

‘I just wanted to hold you. I saw how much you loved her and I just want you to know she’s free now and out of pain and all her family is here together.

‘She’s making the sun shine and the dogs are running around and smiling and the horses are galloping

‘I just want you to know that she’s free from pain now and she fought so hard and I was with her every step of the way

‘I just felt your love, mummy and I both care about you, care about you so much.

Chloe ended the message with: ‘I love you my friend, thank you for doing that.’

Just months before Olivia’s death, Chloe, 36, vowed to stand by her mother ‘always and forever’ while sharing a gallery of pictures of the pair together on Facebook

It comes just days after Wilkins, 68, burst into tears as his last interview with Olivia was aired.

Today host Karl Stefanovic left his seat on the panel to comfort his colleague as he wiped away tears.

‘I didn’t want to do this,’ Wilkins wept.

‘It’s alright,’ Stefanovic said while hugging the presenter. ‘This woman was extraordinary.’

Wilkins was close to tears earlier in the show when he first delivered the heartbreaking news about Olivia’s death.

‘Dickie, I’m so sorry for your loss,’ Stefanovic said.

‘I was just sort of numb,’ Wilkins said to Karl and Ally. ‘I didn’t really know what to think’

‘It’s our loss,’ Wilkins replied. ‘The world has lost a beautiful human being today.’

He then went on to reveal the devastating early morning phone call he received of the news.

‘I was just sort of numb,’ he told Stefanovic and co-host Allison Langdon.

‘You know, all the dates and facts and figures and things just disappear and I just felt completely, just completely numb. I didn’t really know what to think.’

Speaking on Nova’s Fitzy and Wippa on Tuesday morning, Wilkins discussed his first ever encounter with the Grease star.

‘I think I was hosting a sort of a meet and greet thing she must have been promoting a record or something,’ he recalled.

‘And that was I think the first time I met her and we just got on like a house on fire at this thing.’

Wilkins said he’d been a fan of Olivia for his whole life and that he’d never heard a bad word about her.

‘She was never flashy. She she was never a show off. You never see her on the social pages. She would just she just was so dignified,’ he added.

‘And such a classy, beautiful, gorgeous, wonderful lady and a great mum to (daughter) Chloe (Lattanzi).’

Olivia’s husband broke the news of the star’s death in a heartbreak Facebook post on Monday morning, following her brave and extraordinarily public decades-long battle with cancer.

‘Dame Olivia Newton-John (73) passed away peacefully at her Ranch in Southern California this morning, surrounded by family and friends,’ Mr Easterling wrote.

‘We ask that everyone please respect the family’s privacy during this very difficult time.

‘Olivia has been a symbol of triumphs and hope for over 30 years sharing her journey with breast cancer.

‘Her healing inspiration and pioneering experience with plant medicine continues with the Olivia Newton-John Foundation Fund, dedicated to researching plant medicine and cancer.’

The actress famously beat breast cancer twice but was diagnosed again in 2017.

She spent the last few years at home, campaigning for animal rights and raising money for her charity.

In a haunting interview with The Guardian in 2020, she said of the disease: ‘It’s been a part of my life for so long.

‘I felt something was wrong. It’s concerning when it comes back, but I thought ‘I’ll get through it again’.

G Flip gushed over girlfriend Chrishell Stause in a sweet Instagram post on Tuesday.

The 27-year-old Australian musician, who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, had asked her Instagram followers to give them recommendations for a Los Angeles based tattoo artists.

Fans then suggested that they get Chrishell, 41, to do the honors, as they had previously let the Selling Sunset star ink a message on their thigh.

Sweet: G Flip gushed over ‘cute and sexy’ girlfriend Chrishell Stause as she shared a throwback snap on Tuesday of the Selling Sunset star giving them a tattoo

Sharing a throwback snap of the tattoo session, G Flip then quipped that Chrishell was too busy ‘focusing on being hecktikly cute & sexIIII [sic].’

Back in May, G Flip — born Georgia Flipo — had allowed the real estate star to ink a scrawled ‘Get Me Outta Here’ on their thigh.

Although G Flip had previously posted photos of the aftermath in May, the video proved that it was their girlfriend responsible for the tattoo.

Cute couple: The lovebirds met in February, when Chrishell starred in a music video for G Flip, but it wasn’t until May that she announced on the Selling Sunset reunion that they were dating

‘Thank you everyone recommending @chrishell.stause. Her books by Ella are currently closed and she is focusing on being hecktikly cute & sexiiii, ‘G Flip captioned the clip, adding a kissing emoji.

The couple set off engagement rumors in July when Chrishell was seen wearing what appeared to be an engagement ring on her left ring finger, but a rep for the reality star subsequently denied that they were engaged.

The lovebirds met in February, when Chrishell starred in a music video for G Flip, but it wasn’t until May that she announced on the Selling Sunset reunion that they were dating.

Whoops: G Flip — born Georgia Flipo — unintentionally invited the joke responses when the shared a video from the back of a car while asking for tattoo artist recommendations in LA

Receipts: Although G Flip previously posted photos of the aftermath in May, the video proved that it was their girlfriend responsible for the tattoo

The setting could have been awkward, as Chrishell previously dated the Oppenheim Group’s co-founder Jason Oppenheim, but he seemed happy for her.

‘They seem like a bada**, for one,’ he said of G Flip. ‘And two, the smile that’s been on your face the last couple [of] minutes makes me very happy. So I’m proud of you.’

She and the Oppenheim Group CEO ended their five-month-long relationship back in December 2021.

Prior to that relationship, she dated Dancing With The Stars pro Keo Motsepe for three months from 2020 to 2021.

The former soap opera actress was formerly married to This Is Us star Justin Hartley beginning in 2017, but he filed for divorce in 2019.

No Comments on Mad Max Furiosa suspended for a week as George Miller isolates with Covid

EXCLUSIVE: Mad Max blockbuster Furiosa forced to SHUT DOWN Sydney production for a week after legendary director George Miller contracts Covid

By Amy Harris For Daily Mail Australia

Published: 11:54 PM EDT, August 9, 2022 | Updated: 03:06 EDT, August 10, 2022

Production on the latest Mad Max installation Furiosa has been shut down in Sydney after legendary director George Miller caught Covid.

The Daily Mail Australia can reveal the production, which has been under way in a number of locations in and around Sydney since June, has been suspended for a week with all on-screen filming halted until at least August 15.

It’s understood Miller, 77, tested positive to Covid early this week and has been forced to isolate at his Sydney home.

The multi-million dollar production, which is currently based on location in Kurnell just south of Sydney, will resume filming next week.

Furiosa producers have been contacted for comment.

The setback echoes Miller’s infamous shoot for Mad Max: Fury Road back in 2012 which was plagued by a number of costly delays and production issues.

The shoot initially began in Namibia but encountered some public relations hiccups after the Namibian Conservation Coast and Management Project accused the producers of damaging a number of plant and animal species in a leaked draft.

The filmmakers later dismissed these reports as ‘rhetoric’.

Re-shoots later took place in Potts Hill and Penrith Lakes in Western Sydney but poor weather led to a number of delays.

Years later it was also revealed that tensions between Mad Max: Fury Road stars Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy also led to major disruptions on set, with Theron later admitting she demanded protection from Hardy at one point.

Speaking to writer Kyle Buchanan for his book Blood, Sweat & Chrome: The Wild and True Story of Mad Max: Fury Road, Theron said Hardy’s lateness on set caused tension which almost derailed the film entirely.

After Hardy arrived to set several hours late one day, Theron asked the British actor; ‘How disrespectful are you?’ and said the producers should ‘fine the f—— c— a hundred thousand dollars for every minute that he’s held up this crew’.

Hardy responded by ‘charging up to her’ and saying: ‘What did you say to me?’

The Oscar winning actress later confirmed the pair had ‘settled’ their differences.

The film went on to gross almost $400 million globally and won six Oscars.

Anya Taylor-Joy is set to star as Furiosa for the Fury Road prequel which has gone into shutdown in Sydney

Furiosa is a prequel to Fury Road with Anya Taylor-Joy playing a younger Theron in the titular role to headline the post-apocalyptic blockbuster.

Taylor-Joy and co-star Chris Hemsworth were snapped for the first time on set just prior to the current shutdown, with both donning red wigs for their roles.

Details of Hemsworth’s character in the film have been kept under wraps by Miller and insiders at studio Warner Bros, with his role officially defined as ‘unspecified’.

Rebel Wilson showed off her slimmed-down figure in flesh-flashing workout gear while heading to the gym in Los Angeles on Tuesday.

The actress, 42, bared her toned midriff in a sporty crop top and skintight leggings as she stepped out into the sun, warding off the California rays with a visor and shades.

The Australian screen star’s latest outing comes after she shared that the late Olivia Newton-John ‘tried to teach me about health years before I took it seriously’.

Olivia died Monday at the age of 73 surrounded by family at her California ranch after withdrawing from the public eye as her health deteriorated.

She had a roller-coaster 30-year battle with breast cancer, which she was first diagnosed with in 1992 and which came back in 2013 and 2017.

During her life she was an enthusiastic advocate for breast cancer research, even trekking over 228kms along the Great Wall Of China as a fundraiser to build a cancer and wellness center in Melbourne, where she was largely raised.

In 2020 Rebel embarked on a Year Of Health and lost almost 80lbs – nearly a decade after she starred with Olivia in the Australian comedy A Few Best Men.

After news of Olivia’s death spread around the world, Rebel, her fellow Australian, shared a touching Instagram post in memory of her.

She wrote to Olivia: ‘You were the most gorgeous lady inside and out, you are a true Aussie icon and to play your daughter on screen in A FEW BEST MEN was beyond an honour.

‘Seeing you star in the huge Hollywood blockbuster GREASE with your natural accent was so instrumental to me as a little girl, helping me to believe that it was possible for an Aussie girl to star in huge international musicals.’

Rebel went on to star in major Hollywood musicals herself when she became a scene-stealing presence in the Pitch Perfect films.

In her post about Olivia she recalled: ‘You were the reason I auditioned for my high school production of GREASE at 15 – I was only in the chorus, but it was a start!’

‘Love and Light’: Rebel shared on Instagram that Olivia was ‘a true Aussie icon and to play your daughter on screen in A FEW BEST MEN was beyond an honour’

Rebel added: ‘You tried to teach me about health years before I took it seriously. You were so kind to me and it was such a blessing to know you Olivia.

‘I’ll never forget us singing at the piano in our lunch break on set together – what a complete legend you are! I am so sad you are gone Love and Light always to you ONJ, Rebel xoxo’.

Earlier this year Rebel revealed that her staggering 80lbs weight loss was inspired by her desire to eventually become a mother.

For years she has been candid about the fact that she was looking at the prospect of freezing her eggs, which was an influence on her decision to slim down.

Covering People this May, Rebel revealed that a fertility specialist ‘looked me up and down and said: ‘You’d do much better if you were healthier.”

Although her reflex response was to think he was ‘so rude,’ she eventually came to the conclusion the doctor ‘was right. I was carrying around a lot of excess weight.’

She has insisted her fitness journey ‘wasn’t a goal to get to a certain weight. It was just being the healthiest version of myself.’

Rebel, who is 5’3′, has previously credited Vivamayr, a luxury medical center and holistic retreat in Lake Altaussee, Austria, for her astonishing weight loss journey.

Now she has revealed that the process of improving her health involved ‘dealing with the emotional issues that caused me to emotionally eat, and that’s a process. You cry a lot, analyze things. I’d never done that before.’

Remember when: Rebel and Olivia are pictured playing mother and daughter between Xavier Samuel and Laura Brent in the 2011 Australian comedy A Few Best Men

No Comments on Ben Affleck lists his Pacific Palisades mansion for $30M…one month after marrying Jennifer Lopez

Ben Affleck has put his Pacific Palisades mansion on the market for $30 million after rumors to have purchased a sprawling home in Beverly Hills with his wife Jennifer Lopez.

He first snapped up the stunning property, complete with seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a gym, screening room and spa, for $19.2 million back in 2018.

At the time, he bought the plush home in a bid to be near his ex-wife Jennifer Garner, with whom he remains amicable since their 2015 split, and the three children they share, daughters Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13 and ten- year-old son Samuel.

At the time, Realtor.com described the house as ‘an entertainer’s dream’, with the full listing for the home stating it has a spacious living room with fireplace, formal dining room with butler’s pantry, study with bar and more.

Additionally, it is equipped with a screening room, gym, family room with full bar, temperature controlled walk-in wine cellar and maid’s room.

The decision to list his home comes a month after the 49-year-old Batman star tied the knot with his new wife, 53, during an intimate ceremony in Las Vegas.

Moving out: He first snapped up the stunning property, complete with seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a gym, screening room and spa, for $19.2 million

For sale: At the time, he bought the plush home in a bid to be near his ex Jennifer Garner, with whom he remains amicable since their 2015 split, and the three children they share, daughters Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13 and ten -year-old son Samuel

While he and J-LO have yet to confirm that they have purchased a property together, moving trucks were recently spotted outside each of their respective homes.

Lopez and Affleck’s rumored new abode was most recently owned by Australian billionaire James Packer, who’s the former fiancé of Mariah Carey. Other previous residents include DeVito and his ex-wife, Matilda alum Rhea Perlman.

DeVito and Perlman sold the seven-bedroom home in 2015 for $28 million to developers Stuart and Stephanie Liner. The Liners then made numerous upgrades to the estate and listed it for $85 million. Packer then bought the property for around $60 million in 2018.

Wow: At the time, Realtor.com described the house as ‘an entertainer’s dream’, with the full listing for the home stating it has a spacious living room with fireplace, formal dining room with butler’s pantry, study with bar and more

It’s unclear what Lopez and Affleck paid for the house, and there’s a shroud of mystery surrounding the alleged deal, since the house was not even listed for sale when they reportedly bought it.

In fact, real estate experts told TMZ that it hadn’t even been shown off-market, with the exception, potentially, being to Lopez and Affleck.

The house sprawls across 29,000-square-feet, which would allow ample space for the couple’s blended brood of five children.

The Jenny from the Block songstress shares 14-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony, while the Good Will Hunting star is the father to daughters Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13 and son Samuel, 10, with ex- wife Jennifer Garner.

The massive estate is also said to have many luxury amenities and perks, including an at-home movie theater, a hair salon, a gym, an entertainment room, a wine cellar, a sprawling pool, and even multiple guest houses.

No Comments on Tracy Grimshaw dramatically stops interview with Olivia Newton John’s grieving niece

Tracy Grimshaw was forced to abruptly end an interview with Olivia Newton-John’s niece after admitting she’d pushed her grieving relative ‘too much’.

The iconic Grease star died peacefully at the age of 73 at her home in southern California on Monday, surrounded by her family and friends.

Tottie Goldsmith, 59, revealed her aunt Olivia’s health had deteriorated in the days leading up to her death after decades of fighting breast cancer and was ‘really skinny and unwell’ in the days before her passing.

The former Neighbors actress broke down when asked what Olivia was ‘most proud of’ after more than eight minutes of intense grilling from Grimshaw.

‘Hang in there, are you OK,’ Grimshaw said after Goldsmith burst into tears.

Goldsmith replied that Newton-John was proud of her 36-year-old daughter Chloe Lattanzi.

‘She loved her girl so much, and her husband, and all of us. And the hospital, the work she did, but Chloe, she loved her girl so much.

‘Chloe is doing it really tough, but she is amazing. I’ve been in touch with her a lot, and she is incredible.’

Grimshaw replied: ‘I’m going to let you go because I think I probably pushed this too much with you.’

Emotional: Olivia Newton-John’s niece Tottie Goldsmith broke down in tears during an interview for Australia’s A Current Affair on Tuesday, as she revealed the singer was ‘really skinny and unwell’ before her death aged 73

Tracy Grimshaw was forced to abruptly end the interview after Tottie burst into tears, saying: ‘I’m going to let you go because I think I probably push this too much with you’

However, the A Current Affair host threw in one last question, asking if the family would accept Victorian Premier Dan Andrews’ offer for a state funeral.

‘We will on behalf of the family, but I think Australia needs it, she’s so loved. I think our country needs it, so we are going to accept it, but I won’t cry at that. I’m so sorry, it’s just happened today’ Tottie said as she broke down again.

‘Darling, you can cry. I won’t let you cry anymore, but it’s good to see you, and it’s a terrible day,’ Grimshaw finished the segment.

Earlier in the interview, Tottie revealed Olivia’s final days when the legendary singer’s health had taken a turn for the worse.

‘It’s not a shock, we’ve known how sick she’s been, especially in the last five days,’ she told host Tracy Grimshaw of her passing.

Tottie then went on to reveal her heart-wrenching final moments with Olivia, continuing: ‘I couldn’t get to America in time and I wanted to say goodbye, so I asked [her husband John] if he could hold the phone up to her ear… But he got me on FaceTime so I managed to see her.’

‘I told her all the things I needed to say,’ Tottie continued. ‘She was leaving us… but I feel like she got it.’

Happier times: The singer (pictured with the actress in January 2020) said the actress’ health had deteriorated in the days leading up to her death after decades fighting breast cancer and was ‘really skinny and unwell’ in the days before her passing

Heartbroken: Fighting back tears, Tottie said the star’s passing ‘wasn’t a shock’ because she had been sick ‘especially in the past five days’ after her passing was announced on Monday following a decades-long battle with cancer

Tottie went on to reflect on Olivia’s decades-long battle with cancer.

‘There was one day at the Olivia Newtown John Center and she was really skinny and unwell and I said to her, “Are you afraid of dying”, and she said, “Plonker, I’m not afraid. I’ve done more in my life that I could have ever imagined.”‘

‘She’s struggled with a lot of pain and it’s been a tough road,’ Tottie added.

‘It wasn’t just the cancer that got her. It was other complications and being in a hospital with a very susceptible immune system.’

Breaking down: Tottie then went on to reveal her heart-wrenching final moments with Olivia, which took place over Facetime as she was unable to fly to the US in time to be at her bedside

‘I couldn’t get to America in time and I wanted to say goodbye, so I asked [her husband John] if he could hold the phone up to her ear…’ Tottie continued. ‘But he got me on FaceTime so I managed to see her’

Tottie is best known for her turn in the pop group, Chantoozies, who had hits with their songs Witch Queen, He’s Gonna Step On You Again, Wanna Be Up, and Love the One You’re With in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Her father Brian Goldsmith, a renowned night club owner and restaurateur in Melbourne, died in 2020. Her mother is Olivia’s sister, Rona.

Tottie appeared with her aunt at G’day USA in LA in 2020 – where Olivia candidly spoke about beating her cancer.

‘Gosh, life is a gift and I’ve had an amazing life and I intend to keep going with it and I want to help other people with cancer of course,’ she told DailyMail.com in the January 2020 interview.

‘I have my wellness center in Melbourne and I want to see an end to cancer in my lifetime so other people don’t have to suffer.’

Olivia was first diagnosed with the disease in 1992 but announced she had overcome the cancer in 2013, the year after her Wellness Center first opened, but in May 2017, she was told cancer had metastasized and spread to her bones.

Reflecting on her fight to beat the condition, she admitted: ‘I don’t see it as a battle. I don’t think about it a lot, to be honest.

‘Denial is a really good thing and I’m getting stronger and better all the time! I am doing well!…I am feeling wonderful.’

She also admitted that she had hope for her future, adding: ‘I’m winning over and living with it well and that’s how I see it.’

Newton-John also reflected on her delight at still being remembered for Grease more than four decades after its release.

She confessed: ‘We did something very special together. That movie is still loved.’

She recalled how caring co-star John Travolta was during the filming of the musical romantic film.

Asked about her favorite memory on set, she relied: ‘His kindness to me. When there was one scene in the movie – it was my close up, when Rizzo pulls me forward in the bonfire scene – and in the middle of my take, he stopped it and came over to me and whispered in my ear: “I think you can do better.”

‘So that’s really generous. For an actor to do that for another actor. I wasn’t as experienced as him. He was very nurturing and sweet.’

During that same event, lifelong friend Travolta praised her positive outlook on life, despite her health worries.

He said: ‘Olivia is a survivor and she’s smart and she’s got a lot of life in her and I think she looks at it from the glass half full always and that’s her beautiful, natural approach towards life and I think we all need to do that.’

In memory: Newton-John’s Instagram was mostly made up of flashback posts from throughout her career, but on April 18 the star shared a rare candid photo of herself with a beaming smile beside a bed of sunflowers

No Comments on Mad Max: Furiosa star Anya Taylor-Joy smokes a cigarette during a park stroll in Sydney

She’s currently in Australia filming the latest Mad Max installation.

And actress Anya Taylor-Joy took a well-deserved day off on Monday, spending the day in Sydney’s Hyde Park.

The 26-year-old, who is best known for her role in the Netflix miniseries The Queen’s Gambit, was seen having a cigarette mid-stroll in the iconic park.

Anya sat down on a park bench and lit up a cigarette to smoke, flashing her dazzling wedding and engagement ring.

Dressed head-to-toe in oversized black outerwear, the award-winning actress rugged up for the winter weather in a black trench coat, black trousers and a black beanie.

She was wearing black Bose QuietComfort headphones and a tote bag from Sydney’s well-known Ritz Cinemas in Randwick.

The canvas bag features several famous film directors including Sofia Coppola, George Miller, Quentin Tarantino, Federico Fellini and Ava Duvernay.

Anya also appeared to be wearing a long blonde wig, with her brown hair peeking underneath after the actress’ hair was dyed brown while she films Mad Max: Furiosa.

Last year, the Golden Globe winner revealed that she was suffering with burnout while filming The Queens’s Gambit, as it came right off the back of filming two movies.

First up was her lead role in Autumn de Wilde’s big-screen adaptation of Emma. Then after just one day off she began work on psychological horror Last Night in Soho, before going straight into filming The Queen’s Gambit.

‘I survived on Diet Coke, cigarettes and coffee, and by the end of it, I was like, “I need to eat a vegetable,”‘ she told Tatler magazine at the time.

By the time she got around to filming the Netflix miniseries, Anya admitted she was in bed by 8pm every night, yet struggled with the fact she wanted to be out socializing and partying like her friends in their 20s.

‘It’s: go home, have a bath, get up for work. I sound mental, but that’s what’s working for me right now,’ she added.

Anya’s latest sighting was just a week after she was seen for the first time on the set of George Miller’s Mad Max: Fury Road prequel, Furiosa.

Dressed as the titular character, Furiosa, the American star looked worlds away from her usually polished, stylish self while filming in front of a green screen in Sydney’s South on Wednesday, August 3.

Swapping her trademark platinum locks for a messy, matted brown hair-do and tatty clothing, the smiling star was unrecognizable on set as she got stuck in to her latest role.

Award-winning role: Anya played an orphan named Beth Harmon who becomes a chess prodigy in the Netflix miniseries

Her costume consisted of a dirt-stained brown T-shirt which had one sleeve missing and loose trousers. She also wore a green glove, which will be used in post-production to create her character Furiosa’s prosthetic arm.

Anya has enjoyed a stratospheric rise to fame in recent years thanks to her role in Netflix drama The Queens Gambit, as well as films Emma and The Northman, in which she stars alongside Alexander Skarsgård and Nicole Kidman.

Anya arrived in Sydney in May ahead of filming Furiosa, accompanied by her partner Malcolm McRae, who she secretly married in June.

Mad Max: Furiosa is scheduled for release in 2024.

‘We know it’s a sad day for you and so many people, but we wanted to show this photo from quite a few years ago of you, Olivia Newton-John and Tina Arena,’ Natalie said.

‘Can you talk us through those memories, that time, Vanessa?’

Vanessa replied: ‘Both of these women are women I have looked up to since I was a kid… I don’t know. I’m actually very sad about Olivia, to be honest. It’s…’ she trailed off before raising her hand to signal the end of the interview.

Earlier at the start of the chat, live from Birmingham, Vanessa said she walked off stage to the sad news and hadn’t had time to ‘process’ it yet.

‘I don’t particularly want to think about it, because I’ll get very emotional,’ Vanessa said.

‘I just literally had one of the highest endorphins that just happened out there [at the closing ceremony], to being extremely sad coming offstage and checking my phone. I don’t think I’ve really processed it yet,’ she said.

Olivia’s death was announced by her husband John Easterling on Monday on her social media pages. The Australian icon passed away at the age of 73 after battling stage four metastatic breast cancer.

Easterling said his wife died at her Southern California home surrounded by family and friends.

‘Dame Olivia Newton-John (73) passed away peacefully at her Ranch in Southern California this morning, surrounded by family and friends,’ he wrote.

‘We ask that everyone please respect the family’s privacy during this very difficult time.

‘Olivia has been a symbol of triumphs and hope for over 30 years sharing her journey with breast cancer.

‘Her healing inspiration and pioneering experience with plant medicine continues with the Olivia Newton-John Foundation Fund, dedicated to researching plant medicine and cancer,’ he added.

The family asked for donations to be made to her cancer organization, the Olivia Newton-John Foundation Fund, instead of flowers.

She is survived by her 36-year-old daughter, Chloe Lattanzi, 36.

The actress famously beat breast cancer twice but was diagnosed again in 2017.

She spent the last few years at home, campaigning for animals’ rights and raising money for her charity online.

She was also a strong campaigner for the use of medical cannabis for treatment in Australia.

In a haunting interview with The Guardian in 2020, she said of the disease: ‘It’s been a part of my life for so long.

‘I felt something was wrong. It’s concerning when it comes back, but I thought ‘I’ll get through it again”.

In other interviews, when asked how she battled the disease so bravely, she said: ‘I’ve had and am having an amazing life so I have no complaints.

‘I really don’t. Everyone goes through something. We all have something we need to go through in life. This has been my challenge.’

Earlier this year, Olivia said how she tries to keep positive amid her battle, telling Who magazine: ‘I focus on the positive side of things, no matter what the challenge.’

In light of her diagnosis, Olivia said at the time that she doesn’t focus on statistics or time limits.

‘Positive thinking is so important to living a healthy and happy life,’ she said.
