No, I Won't Be Nude At Your Wedding

Subscribe to Mamamia

A wedding, a nasty divorce and a whole new Kate gate, it's Holly's royal round up. 

Also, have you ever heard of grey rock theory? It might just be the answer for getting through conversations with difficult people. We explain. 

And, the return of the lads’ mag. Are middle-aged men nostalgic for a time of what they call "innocent ogling"? We have some thoughts.
