Started off Derby weekend with a nice dinner at the ChopHouse and then went out and hung out in Club 23.

The hotel was great with stunning views.

Got my hair and make-up done and went to go and put my dress on and look what happened.

Luckily, there was a great seamstress at the hotel and she literally sewed me into my dress.


Hanging out with Ronan and Yvonne at the races was really fun. But I have to say, the people in Melbourne were trashed! The Emirates tent was cool, we had a lot of fun.

Hanging out with Emma Freedman was so much fun, she was actually on the phone before we took this picture, mid auction for a condo. I wonder if she got it???

Hungout with Miss J! Look at his fabulous bowtie! Love this guy!

Went back to the hotel for a 2 hour disco nap, I couldn’t sleep, but clearly Stephen could.

We had out big dinner with all of the fabulous people of Channel 7 at a cute french bistro.

Qantas cancelled all of their flights for the day. Me and Ronan had to get back to sydney for our dress rehearsals with our contestants, so the only way to fly back was the private jet. Now that’s what I’m talking about!!!!

Back to work.
Derby Day Outfit: Calvin Klein Dress

Oh my gosh, Sydney really knows how to show a Leeds girl a good time! I had a blast cruising around the harbor on a fabulous boat, on such a beautiful day! Good food, good drinks, great company, warm sunshine, and relaxation, what else can a girl ask for?!?! I can’t wait to have another wonderful, relaxing day just like yesterday! Thanks Sydney!

Ronan, 34, looked like he needed a very high factor sun cream as he walked topless around a 92-foot yacht that had been hired from Aussie Home Loans chief John Symond to treat the Australian X Factor team to a day out.
Even fellow judge Mel B commented on his fair skin as she, husband Stephen Belafonte and her daughters Phoenix and Angel joined the yacht party for the cruise around Sydney.
She took to her Twitter page to snap a picture of the gang on the deck and wrote: ‘A day out boating with the family yipeee @ronanofficial is tooo pale for the pic!!’
But he seemed to be happy and relaxed as he wandered round the boat soaking up the early summer sun.
Mel, 36, was also having a good time and with her two-month baby daughter Madison safely on dry land with a nanny, Mum could sit back and enjoy a glass or two of wine.
The former Spice Girl even had a cheeky puff on a cigarette as she and Belafonte sparked up at the back of the boat.
After a spot of lunch in which more drinks were consumed, Ronan and Stephen decided to indulge in a spot of fishing off the back of the boat while Angel had a dip in the hot tub.
The gang were enjoying some time off from the show before it returns on Monday night and another finalist is kicked off.

Angel begged me to go onto the orange carpet at the Kid’s Choice Awards and we had soooo much fun! Angel even ended up signing her first autograph, or should I say scribble. Johnny Schembri (from Project Runway Australia) designed and created my hot pink dress and I LOVED IT! It was funny hanging out backstage with Jennette McCurdy and Nathan Kress from iCarly. I got to present an award with “Commando” (from the Biggest Loser), who is not as scary as he looks! We presented to Cody Simpson, and he was so sweet! I had the Elton John dressing room, with my own personal chef that was right next door to the stage. My kids loved it! Awwww to be a kid again! At least I get to experience it with my kids and through their eyes. I kind of did want to get slimed though, but I didn’t want to ruin my new dress or 6 inch Louboutins!

So sad to see both of my girls go, Jacqui and Tyla. They worked so hard and I am so proud of them! It is just a shame that someone has to go each week and it was my two girls in the first 3 weeks, but not first! haha. I wish them nothing but the best, and I know that this will not be the last we’ve heard of them! xx

Stephen and I were hanging out backstage at the Aussie X Factor with LMFAO, Sneaky Sound System, and the one and only Kelly Clarkson. She performed her new single, Mr. Know It All, live and she killed it! Her accent has such a cute southern drawl, it puts my accent to shame. We all love some Kelly Clarkson!

She already has two daughters and two weeks ago she welcomed another little girl into her fold when she gave birth to her third child.
But Mel B has said that motherhood is different this time round and that’s all because of husband Stephen Belafonte.
The former Spice Girl said she is grateful to him for being a supportive partner and added that she feels like she has ‘finally done it right’.
Mel, 36, was speaking to Hello! magazine as she and Stephen posed with their daughter Madison for the first time.
She spoke about the new-found happiness of her family life and said she would love to have more children with Stephen.
Mel has two other daughters – Phoenix, 12, from her first marriage to dancer Jimmy Gulzar, and four-year-old Angel from her brief relationship with comedy actor Eddie Murphy.
She said: ‘Ideally you want to have your loving partner who you’ve created this baby with by your side throughout everything, and in Angel and Phoenix’s cases, that wasn’t the set up.
The full interview with Mel is in the this week’s edition of Hello! magazine which is out now.
‘I had a rocky marriage with Phoenix’s dad. The relationship with Angel’s dad, Eddie, was over halfway through the pregnancy, and I had to suck it up and get on with it.
‘This time I’ve done it with my partner – someone to come to every prenatal appointment with me, to get excited by every scan – and it feels like I’ve finally done it right.
‘When I was moaning to Stephen about my trapped nerve I was thinking, “I’ve never had anyone to complain to about these kinds of things”.’
Mel described Madison, who was born earlier this month weighing in at six pounds and two ounces, is ‘so gorgeous and such a chilled baby’.
Mel, who was known as Scary Spice when she was in the all-girl group, is currently in Australia as a judge on the country’s X Factor.
Due to start filming the show in two weeks, she was snapped in Sydney this weekend showing off her post-baby curves in a pretty leopard print maxi dress.
She teamed the frock with with aviator sunglasses and nude heels as she headed out to run errands with her daughter Angel in tow.
