"All or nothing": Arisa Trew shatters records to become Australia's youngest Olympic Gold Medallist

<p>Arisa Trew from the Gold Coast has made history by becoming Australia's youngest-ever medallist, clinching gold in the women's park skateboarding final at the Paris 2024 Olympics.</p> <p>At just 14 years and 90 days old, Trew has broken a 68-year-old record, previously held by swimmer Sandra Morgan from the Melbourne 1956 Olympics.</p> <p>Born on May 12, 2010, Trew is too young to vote, drink or even stay at the Olympic village. However, these limitations did not hinder her from delivering an extraordinary performance when it mattered most.</p> <p>Heading into her third and final run, Trew was in the bronze medal position and poised for a podium finish. However, her most impressive performance was yet to come. "My coach, Trev, he was just like, 'you've just got to go all out," she told Nine News after being crowned champion. "And I was just like, 'yep, who cares? Just all or nothing.'"</p> <p>With a remarkable score of 93.18 in her final run, Trew soared into the top spot. She then faced a tense wait as the higher-qualified skaters attempted to surpass her score. Despite the pressure, Trew showed sportsmanship by cheering on her competitors.</p> <p>After clinching the gold, the young athlete said, “I got told by a few people that I’m Australia’s youngest gold medallist, which is, like, pretty insane and really cool, because that’s, like, who I’m representing and, like, it’s just amazing.</p> <p>“It’s just, like, super cool that I have won the gold medal because it has been like a dream. I’m just, like, so excited.”</p> <p>This victory makes Trew Australia's youngest-ever medallist. The previous record had stood for 68 years since Sandra Morgan won gold in the women's 4x100m freestyle relay at the age of 14 years and 184 days. Trew, at 14 years and 90 days, has also become the youngest athlete to medal at Paris 2024 so far.</p> <p><em>Images: Nine News</em></p>

How 8-year-old Ruby McLellan became Australia's youngest home owner

<p>Move over, monopoly tycoons and pretend princes of pretend kingdoms – meet Ruby McLellan, the pint-sized powerhouse who's rewriting the rules of real estate and giving the term "property ladder" a literal twist.</p> <p>That's right: Ruby is just eight years old and already owns a four-bedroom house. Meanwhile, most of us can barely find matching socks in the morning.</p> <p>Now, before you start picturing a tiny landlord with a playhouse adorned with "No Girls Allowed" signs, let's delve into Ruby's remarkable tale of fiscal responsibility and pocket money prowess.</p> <p>While most kids her age were still trying to figure out if they preferred chocolate or strawberry milk, Ruby was busy checking out property market trends and crunching numbers like a seasoned Wall Street mogul. With the help of her siblings, Angus (14) and Lucy (13), Ruby pooled their collective pocket money - a grand total of $6000 - to secure a deposit for their first property. Their weapon of choice? Not lemonade stands or tooth fairy funds, but good old-fashioned hard work and frugality. The result? A four-bedroom home in Clyde, southeast of Melbourne, bought by the McLellan kids for $671,000.</p> <p>Their dad, Cam McLellan, CEO of a property investment company, guided them through the labyrinth of real estate jargon, teaching them about positive gearing and growth corridors. While other kids were learning their times tables, Ruby was calculating potential rental yields. Talk about a head start in life!</p> <p><span style="font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;">And while their friends were blowing their allowances on the latest toys and gadgets, these pint-sized property moguls were saying no to impulse buys and yes to long-term investments. It's like they were born with calculators instead of rattles.</span></p> <p>Now, you might be wondering, what's next for these mini-magnates? Well, they plan to hold onto their property until Lucy and Angus hit their early 20s, ensuring they've waited through one full "growth property cycle". After that, it's off to the races, with hopes that their humble abode will fetch a cool million bucks.</p> <p>But Ruby's not stopping there. She's already asking about tax implications and property sales, proving that she's got the brains to match her business acumen. Who needs a lemonade stand when you can have a diversified investment portfolio?</p> <p>So, while most kids are busy mastering Fortnite dances or perfecting their TikTok routines, Ruby McLellan is out here making moves in the property market. Who knows? Maybe one day we'll all be renting from her property empire.</p> <p>But just remember, when you're paying rent to an eight-year-old landlord, be sure to pay on time. Late fees might include extra homework assignments or a mandatory bedtime story session. Hey, it's all in the lease agreement...</p> <p><em>Image: The Today Show</em></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The world’s youngest Prime Minister, Finland’s Sanna Marin, has apologised to the public after a photo surfaced of her in a nightclub following the foreign minister testing positive for COVID-19.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I did wrong. I should have considered the situation more carefully,” Marin, 36, said in a television interview by public broadcaster Yle on Wednesday night.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Marin decided not to cut her night out short on Saturday, despite being told she had been exposed to the coronavirus the day before, she explained on Facebook on Monday, after a Finnish gossip magazine published a photo of her in a crowded nightclub.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But Marin wasn’t the only politician in the line of fire.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Economic Affairs Minister Mika Lintila also attended a floorball match between Finland and Latvia on Sunday, despite being advised to avoid contact with others, Helsingin Sanomat newspaper reported on Wednesday.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Defence Minister Antti Kaikkonen went to a dinner party on Saturday while Finance Minister Annika Saarikko and Science and Culture Minister Antti Kurvinen cancelled their attendance of the same event to avoid contacts, evening paper Ilta-Sanomat reported on Tuesday.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">All three ministers were exposed on Friday at a meeting attended by Foreign Minister Pekka Haavisto, who on Saturday tested positive.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Marin said she was at a restaurant when she received a phone call from her state secretary informing her about the exposure.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“He said ministers would not be quarantined because they all have been vaccinated twice,” Marin wrote on Facebook, explaining why she continued socialising.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The prime minister’s office later said it had sent the exposed ministers two text messages on Saturday recommending that they avoid contact with other people.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Marin said she had left her official phone at home and instead relied on aides reaching her on her personal phone.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Marin has since taken two tests that were negative, while Lintila and Kaikkonen have also tested negative.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Finland has seen a surge of new COVID-19 cases in the past months, spurring health officials to worry about the healthcare system being overburdened.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Several big hospitals around the country have postponed non-critical surgeries and the government on Wednesday proposed a vaccine mandate for healthcare workers.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Image: EPA</span></p>

Meet the youngest person to run a solo lap of Britain

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elise Downing never thought she was a gifted runner. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She tried running a marathon, dressed as a crayon, but gave up before finishing and was found crying on the side of the road. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She wasn’t phased by her previous marathon failures, as six weeks later, she set out on a marathon of epic proportions, leaving from London’s National Maritime Museum with a tent on her back and a map that she couldn’t read to run around the coast of Britain. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She became the first woman and the youngest person to run a lap of Great Britain by herself, having completed the 5,000-mile journey back to Greenwich in 301 days.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Along the journey, she crashed with over 200 strangers for a night and suffered several injuries on the way.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She was often slowed down by chaffing from her running tights and her backpack rubbing on her shoulders. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">After finishing the impressive feat, Elise recalled her travels in her book titled </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Coasting: Running Around The Coast of Britain – Life, Love And (Very) Loose Plans.</span></em></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In her book she explains that the clockwise route around the UK was never an issue, saying “I just keep the sea to my left, surely.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She also explained that the hole in her back was caused by friction from her sports bra clasp wearing a big hole in a T-shirt she didn’t want to change because she had become “weirdly superstitious” about taking it off.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“It’s probably one of the most ridiculous ideas I had,’ she writes. ‘I can’t explain myself.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elise’s 40 mile-per-day jogs were often interrupted by ferocious storms and decided to name them as old friends. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She wrote in her book, “Your own mortality suddenly feels very apparent in those moments. I had to take an alternative inland route quite a few times to avoid literally being blown out to sea.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite the trials and tribulations, Elise witnessed the kindness of people firsthand. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She wrote, “I realised how fundamentally good most humans are. It was a huge privilege to be welcomed into so many people’s homes, and I feel really lucky to have had the chance to meet so many different, amazing people.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Running the coast of Britain was technically a solo challenge, but I really don’t think I would have made it to the end if it wasn’t for all the help I received.”</span></p> <p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Image credit: Instagram @elisecdowning</span></em></p>

<p>A 30-year-old miner known as Nathan Turner is the youngest Australian to die from coronavirus.</p> <p>It was only discovered that he was suffering from the virus after he was discovered dead at his home.</p> <p>This is the first care recorded in Blackwater, 190km west of Rockhampton, and Queensland Health is trying to figure out how Turner was infected.</p> <p>Turner had not worked since November and hadn’t left Blackwater since February.</p> <p>An unidentified nurse from Rockhampton tested positive for the virus earlier this month after she broke government enforced lockdown to travel to the town.</p> <p>She reportedly told contact tracers that she had visited Blackwater to “see a sunset”, but Queensland health have suggested the two have not had contact.</p> <p>"The [nurse] travelled to Blackwater in the second week of May but did not interact with other individuals there," the spokesperson said.</p> <p>"Information provided to Queensland Health about the case identified today indicated the man had respiratory symptoms since the first week of May.</p> <p>"At this time, no evidence has been provided to Queensland Health that links the two cases, but we will continue to assess all information relevant to any case."</p> <p>State Health Minister Stephen Miles said Blackwater residents weren’t told of the nurse’s visit because it was deemed low risk.</p> <p>“To my knowledge, she drove there, watched the sunset, and drove back – didn’t leave her car," he told ABC radio on Thursday.</p> <p>He said authorities are now looking into whether there is a link between the cases.</p> <p>"It’s possible that there is some kind of connection there, or it could just be a coincidence," he said.</p> <p>"That’s what our investigators are working on. Those dates don’t really line up with when he got sick. It is a bit of a mystery and it could just be a coincidence.”</p> <p>However, Deputy CMO Paul Kelly said that it was worrying that someone from a remote area had fallen ill.</p> <p>“It shows that there is community transmission of some sort,” he told reporters on Tuesday afternoon.</p> <p>“We haven’t had many people in rural areas in any state and so at this point in the pandemic it is a concern.</p> <p>“I understand that he had been sick for some weeks and I guess he hadn’t assumed that it was COVID-19. It is another very strong reminder to all of us at this point that if anyone has any symptoms that are of a respiratory virus.</p> <p>“It might feel like a cold, it could be COVID and we really want to get that test done.”</p> <p><em>Photo credits: <a rel="noopener" href="https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-05-27/coronavirus-testing-queensland-death-dies/12287058" target="_blank">ABC</a></em></p>

Fans fuming after MasterChef Australia crowns youngest ever winner

<p><em>MasterChef’s</em> grand finale aired on Tuesday night where the top three contestants battled it out for the top prize.</p> <p>After Larissa Takchi, Simon Toohey and Tessa Boersma took part in an intense service challenge, it was Larissa that ultimately came out on top with her pavlova receiving a perfect score from the judges.</p> <p>At just 22 years old, she is the youngest ever winner in the show’s history.</p> <p>She was awarded a brand new Holden Equinox, a monthly column in <em>Delicious</em> magazine and a quarter of a million dollars.</p> <p>Feeling overwhelmed, the young cook said: “Thank you so much. Honestly, I can’t believe it. I am so surprised that I even made it this far in the competition.</p> <p>“And to say that I’ve actually won is just so weird to even say out loud. I’ve got you three to thank for it,” she told the judges.</p> <p>“Honestly, you’ve seen me, how I’ve grown since I first came to the competition. You guys are like my three dads. You’ve kind of brought me up in this way!”</p> <p>Her mother, who was standing beside her, was also visibly proud, saying: “I can’t believe what she’s achieved. She’s just young and just starting out and she just taught herself everything, really. She’s just got this drive in her and she has places to go.”</p> <p>Coming in at second place was Tessa Boersma, who was awarded $30,000, and was gracious in defeat, saying: “I’ve learnt so much being in this competition about myself and what I’m capable of, and it’s changed me completely for the better.”</p> <p>She added, “And Larissa, she’s so incredible and completely deserves to win." </p> <p>But not everyone was happy with the outcome, with viewers taking to Twitter to express their fury at the so-called favouritism shown by the judges.</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet tw-align-center" data-lang="en-gb"> <p dir="ltr">the judges have been pushing the “youngest contestant” agenda for a while... looking back i should of known <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/MasterChefAU?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#MasterChefAU</a></p> — carly (@marleyisdardy) <a href="https://twitter.com/marleyisdardy/status/1153664008022396928?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">23 July 2019</a></blockquote> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet tw-align-center" data-lang="en-gb"> <p dir="ltr">Rock hard sorbet, collapsed meringues...

What Queen Elizabeth forgot about her youngest son Prince Edward

<p>Prince Edward is the youngest child of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, however despite being the baby of the family reports say the Earl of Wessex’s birthday was forgotten while in his 20s by his mother.</p> <p>Now 54 years old, Prince Edward had a rather sobering experience in his younger life that the public took to social media to extend their sympathies.</p> <p>Jeremy Paxman’s new Channel 5 documentary is delving into the early life of the Queen’s children, and his biographer Ingrid Seward described him as a young lonely royal who found it difficult to find his place in Buckingham Palace.</p> <p>Seward, the editor-in-chief of<span> </span><em>Majesty</em><span> </span>magazine, said he was the “overlooked” third son.</p> <p>“At Buckingham Palace, he was lonely.</p> <p>“One year on his birthday he went to have breakfast with the Queen, and nothing was said. No card, no present. She didn’t know it was his birthday,” Seward recounted.</p> <p>Previously she had mentioned the same experience in her 2005 book<span> </span><em>Prince Edward: A Biography</em>, where she described the Q<span>ueen eating her toast and marmalade and sipping her special blend of homemade tea.</span></p> <p>The Prince’s demeanour hadn’t changed throughout breakfast, however, when a royal aide was made aware of the situation, the Queen was alerted, a “hasty” phone call was made, and presents were delivered to him a few hours later.</p> <p>"If it had been Prince Edward’s 20th or his 30th, his mother would not have forgotten,'" Steward wrote.</p> <p>She also noted the Queen’s second “heroic” son Andrew, who fought in the war, was her favourite son.</p> <p><em>Daily Mail</em>’s Richard Kay told Jeremy Paxman that Prince Edward never really knew where he fit in.</p> <p>“His royal aides once told me that the trouble with Prince Edward is that he can never decide whether he is His Royal Highness or Edward Windsor.</p> <p>“He couldn't tell whether he was one of us or a member of the royal family,” Kay said.</p> <p>This news comes days after the surprising revelation that <a rel="noopener" href="https://www.oversixty.com.au/lifestyle/relationships/prince-charles-surprising-admission-prince-andrew-wants-to-be-me" target="_blank">Prince Charles claimed his younger brother, Prince Andrew, wanted to be him.</a></p> <p>The dynamic that existed between Prince Charles and his youngest brother, Edward, was extremely separate.</p> <p>“Charles is 16 years older than Edward and they weren't close,” Stewart admitted.</p> <p>She also confirmed their was a time where Prince Charles was the ‘leading’ son of the family.</p> <p>“On one of those occasions Prince Edward went upstairs and found some of the Duke of Windsor's old kilts which of course were all the tartans that the Prince of Wales is entitled to wear, and he thought, 'Ooh those look rather fun.' So, he put one on, and it fitted.</p> <p>“He went down to dinner in a tartan which was that of the Duke of Rothesay, and as he went into the dining room Charles went apoplectic and said, ‘What are you doing wearing that? I am the only one entitled to wear that kilt. It is a kilt for the Prince of Wales. Go upstairs and take it off.’”</p> <p>“Edward being such a calm person just went, 'OK', went upstairs and took it off and never mentioned it again.”</p> <p>Scroll through the gallery above to see Prince Edward through the years.</p> <p>Are you surprised by the Queen forgetting Prince Edward’s birthday?

“Australia’s youngest parents” welcome second child at the age of 16

<p>Couples twice their age still aren’t ready for kids, but 16-year-olds Mollie and Oscar have been parents for almost two years now.</p> <p>Mollie Syrigos and Oscar Wilks made headlines in 2016 when they found out they were expecting their first child at the age of just 13, making Mollie one of the youngest mums in Australian history.</p> <p>She gave birth at 14 to a boy named Theodore (now almost two years old) and in December welcomed the couple’s second child, a girl named Delilah Lilli.</p> <p>At the time she discovered her second pregnancy (which, like the first, wasn’t planned), Mollie told <a href="https://www.9news.com.au/9stories/2017/05/24/15/26/melbourne-teen-mum-pregnant-with-second-baby-at-15" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">9 News</span></strong></a> she and Oscar were excited for a new addition to their family.</p> <p>“I know it will be a huge challenge but I’m prepared for that challenge. When you love something so much challenges sort of make you stronger and I’m ready for the challenges and very excited for the new baby to come.”</p> <p>Mollie is also quick to shut down any criticism of teen parents, saying it was actually very common. In 2015, 2,641 teenagers became mothers.</p> <p>“Just because I’m physically 15, my head is in a different place. I feel a lot older than 15,” she said last year. “No age defines how well you parent. There’s 30-year-old ice junkie mums out there. I’m doing as best as I can and my son is happy and so is my partner and I think that’s the main thing.”</p> <p>The couple live with Oscar’s dad, who has multiple sclerosis, and help care for him. Mollie, who would have started Year 11 this year, is taking Swinburne University of Technology’s secondary school classes for young mothers. Oscar, who says his partner is a “genius” and will go a long way, is a full-time apprentice tradie.</p> <p>But as much as they love their two bubs, the 16-year-olds have some advice for other kids their age.</p> <p>“Look, if I had anything to say about being so young and having a baby, it would be this – hold on to your childhood as long as you can,” Oscar told the Herald Sun. “If it happens and you become a parent, just be the best parent you can be.”</p> <p>What do you think about this young 16-year-old Aussie couple having two children under the age of two? Share your thoughts with us in the comments below. </p>
