Spotted: Miranda Kerr and Flynn Touch Down

Flynet

Stripes and spots!

Miranda Kerr and son Flynn Christopher, 7 months, mix and match playful patterns after landing in Melbourne from Wellington Friday – minus proud papa Orlando Bloom.

“It’s one of the more challenging aspects of our lives, because obviously we are both very busy,” the 34-year-old actor, who’s filming The Hobbit in New Zealand, says.

“But if I am away working then we try to all stay together and Miranda will have to come and go a little bit. We just work it out. And at this stage, Flynn is still quite portable. But there is a lot of luggage involved.”

Head and shoulders above the rest!

Geri Halliwell gives daughter Bluebell Madonna, 5, a lift as the pair visit a frozen yogurt shop for a snack on Wednesday in Hampstead.

“They came with little notes and that is always special to me, to get those from the girls.”

Julie Bowen: I Wanted One Baby – Not Two!

After welcoming son Oliver, now 4, with husband Scott Phillips, Julie Bowen always knew she wanted more kids. However, she wasn’t expecting — or prepared for — a double dose of babies!

“I was terrified. I did not want twins as a second go-around. I should have been much more cautious. I should have had … half sex?” the Modern Family star, 42, jokes in the September issue of More.

When the news broke that the actress was pregnant with twin boys, speculation grew that Bowen had turned to in vitro fertilization to expand her family. That assumption, she explains, couldn’t be further from the truth.

“Everybody asked me, ‘How many did you put in?’ and I’d be like, ‘Just one penis. Thanks!’” she says.

Leave it to Beyoncé to steal the spotlight at Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards.

But it wasn’t one of the pop diva’s signature show-stopping performances that had people talking. Instead, it was Beyoncé’s burgeoning baby bump, swathed in an orange gown.

Knowles, 29, posed for photos with her hands cradling her belly, teasing, “I have a surprise!”

“I’m happy to say it’s true,” her rep confirms to PEOPLE.

“They told friends in the last month,” a source tells PEOPLE. “She’s never been happier. Seriously it’s all she’s been waiting for. And Jay is like an excited kid. They’re adorable.”

Kendra Wilkinson: I’m Back to Being Me After Battling PPD

Fame

Nearly two years after welcoming son Hank, first-time mom Kendra Wilkinson has officially bounced back.

“[After I had a baby,] I felt like I had to be a different person. I had to be conservative and wear turtlenecks and be someone that I wasn’t,” she told PEOPLE Saturday pool at Las Vegas’s Wet Republic.

“Now that I have my body back and I feel good again, I have the perfect amount of balance. It’s all about finding the balance.”

However, learning to juggle her family of three — including husband Hank Baskett — and still maintain her own sense of self was anything but easy for the Being Kendra: Cribs, Cocktails, and Getting My Sexy Back author, who has been open about her battle with postpartum depression.
