Pip forgets to do her homework

Activewear supremo Pip Edwards really can achieve anything she sets her mind to. 

As an ardent admirer, I can’t help but marvel at the incredible feat she’s achieved – gracing the cover of Women’s Health Magazine, no less! It’s simply astounding, considering her widely known penchant for cocktails and the occasional game of darts.

However, it was not her mischievous behavior that sparked whispers among the residents of the eastern suburbs this week, but rather her tendency to speak too freely.

At a gathering showcasing Ray-Ban and Meta’s advanced spectacles, where she serves as an emissary, she reportedly made some quite humorous declarations.

According to my informant, when inquired about the colors, she gave an embarrassed chuckle and responded, ‘I guess you can find something here to buy!’, then proceeded to share stories about the exciting evening she had experienced with other party attendees.

Based on my source’s account, it appeared that she was unfamiliar with the technical details of the glasses, which made the situation slightly uncomfortable given that a high-ranking Ray-Ban executive had traveled from Asia specifically for this event.

Let’s go, Pip. Everyone understands that when endorsing a brand, it’s crucial to have a genuine understanding of the product you’re promoting. Max Markson could enlighten you about that.

Furthermore, it is said that she had plenty of time to complete her assignments, as Meta’s public relations team shared detailed information packages with the performers and their representatives beforehand, covering essential topics about the product and how it works.

They even provided some handy videos, I am told.

In simpler terms, it seems Pip got a pretty generous sum to sport those advanced spectacles, which she wasn’t overly familiar with. High-end temporary endorsement contracts like these often run into tens of thousands.

In other words, certainly worth sitting through a 10-minute YouTube tutorial.

Of course, Pip wasn’t the only one turning heads at the Ray-Ban x Meta event.

Notably, high-end fashion stylist and popular Instagram personality Kim Russell, known as ‘thekimbino’, left many speechless as she revealed her decision to forgo participation in Australian Fashion Week.

When Laura Dundovic, the event host, inquired about Russell’s plans for utilizing the glasses during Fashion Week, he replied, “I won’t be attending.

‘A hush fell over the room, so deep that it seemed as if someone had thrown a pin and everyone was listening intently – the glassware was distributed worldwide in harmony with Fashion Week, this was revealed by an embarrassed attendee.’

Best friends forever?

The separation of the well-known couple Nicholas and Litsa Stavropoulos from the eastern suburbs has stirred a lot of concern among their elite social circle, leaving many feeling obligated to take a stance in the aftermath of their split.

In the aftermath of their separation, the stylish project manager Pembe Bekir unfortunately found herself caught up in the fallout when she provided a comforting ear for Nicholas during his distress.

Bekir’s former close friend and custom bridal dress designer, Lillian Khallouf, found this action quite displeasing. They used to be inseparable, but now they no longer communicate.

Interestingly enough, Pembe’s own marriage has just come to an end as well, and it so happens that Lillian maintains a friendship with Pembe’s former spouse, Deniz, who used to be good friends with Nicholas.

‘Lillian unfollowed her after Litsa and Nicholas split up,’ a source tells me.

That’s all we know for now. As soon as we get more details, you’ll be the first to know.

But that’s not the only friendship rift making the rounds.

It seems that Jessica Ingham, often referred to as the ‘chicken heiress’, and social influencer Laura Hazzouri appear to have had a disagreement or fallen out.

It’s quite possible that our conversation dwindled following our mutual separation from Roxy Jacenko, the esteemed PR maven who initially brought us together.

Readers of the Daily Mail for a long time are familiar with the fact that Ingham and Jacenko were once close friends, but they had a disagreement concerning their high-end candle company, XRJ.

Living at Milsons Point together with her husband, a property developer, and their three boys, Hazzouri had initially been represented by Jacenko’s talent agency for influencers, The Ministry of Talent. However, she later decided to align herself with Ingham instead.

Doyles on the move

In the Sutherland Shire, the talk of the town is Matthew and Kelsey Doyle as they’re now making changes to their properties, following their private welcome of a newborn son back in December.

Matthew, a wealthy software developer, found himself in prison after attempting to bring $85 million worth of cocaine into Australia in 2019. Despite having no part in this scheme, Kelsea stayed by her husband’s side during his imprisonment.

As a newfound free individual and proud father of two, Matt has decided to put his Burraneer residence on the market. He anticipates receiving an offer ranging from $2.4 million to $3 million for the property.

This property, frequently referred to by realtors as an “ideal for entertainers,” is adorned with immaculate details and features a high-end diving pool.

Or:
This property, often called a “dream for entertainers” by real estate agents, showcases pristine finishes and boasts a luxury plunge pool.

Or:
Realtors call this property an “entertainer’s paradise,” which features immaculate finishes and includes a lavish diving pool.

In January, it was disclosed in the Group Chat that the Doyles had relocated to Oak Park, which is located in the southern part of Cronulla, contrary to speculations suggesting they were considering a residence in Rose Bay.

And finally… guess who, don’t sue!

She desires to give her nose a fresh, improved look, yet she’s struggling to find a skilled cosmetic surgeon who is ready to perform the procedure.

Why might she avoid additional procedures on her nose, given its history of multiple surgeries and other activities outside school hours?

In the absence of any viable alternatives, she might need to travel abroad to locate a questionable professional who could perform a surgical procedure on her thin nasal septum.
