Unity Through Adversity: The Olympic Spirit

Subscribe to Mamamia

The Olympics is over and we have a LOT to unpack. The entire world is talking about one Australian woman… We decode the Raygun phenomena. 

Plus, more athletes have asked their other halves to marry them at this Olympics than ever before and Holly has some questions for the married (Mia and Jessie). Plus, all the Tom Cruise-ness of the closing ceremony and why we all care so damn much. 

And, you can’t turn around at the moment without Blake Lively's glorious mane whipping you in the face - so what’s all this about a “rift” derailing her new film It Ends With Us?
