Editor's Say

Hayley McLarin - Editor

read more When news broke last week that Ali Mau and Simon Dallow had decided to separate, my first thought was how sad it was for them as a family. I'm sure all parents in their situation do their best to keep the family unit solid. And our parenting experts say that it needn't be a traumatic upheaval - how we deal with life's changes as adults impacts on how our children deal with it, too. And on that note, how Rachel Hunter gets through the next few weeks after being left almost at the altar by Jarret Stoll will undoubtedly guide her daughter Renee through any heartbreak in the years to come. Time is a healer - especially if it's spent with your friends. With so many devastating break-ups in the mag this week, we also needed to bring you some cheer to brighten your day - so maybe get back on track to domestic bliss by baking a batch of yummy cookies (see page 44), and check out our fantastic giveaways and coupons for the school holidays. Hope yours is a great week. We have two different covers in the market (due to Michael Jackson's death after deadline). New Idea apologises to its readers in the South Island, but due to delivery times, we could not get our updated magazine, featuring Michael Jackson's sad passing, to South Island retailers. If you would like to read our four-page wrap-around, please email your details to newidea@pacificmags.co.nz and we will post it to you.
