Falk's cause of death has not been publicly revealed.

'Though our time working together was brief, the impact Koby had was anything but small. From the moment we connected, I was struck by his warmth, his charisma, and his incredible professionalism,' he wrote.
'He was organised, kind-hearted, and deeply respectful. The kind of person you instantly felt grateful to work with.
'It was an honour to represent his remarkable body of work and to witness firsthand the power of his presence, both on and off screen. His ability to connect with people, not just here in Australia but across the world, was something truly special.'
Leigh added that Falks 'wasn't just a client and was a light, a creative force, and a genuinely beautiful soul'.
'Never did I imagine I would be writing such a post, especially for someone I had the privilege of managing. And I sincerely hope I never have to again,' he added.
'To Koby's family, his close friends, and his extended 'family' of fans and followers – my deepest condolences. We have lost a trailblazing creative spirit far too soon. But I truly believe his light and legacy will continue shining brightly above. Rest peacefully, Koby. You will be missed, always.'

'Took me years to drop the act. Turns out, the scariest thing wasn't being rejected—it was being seen. No more masks. No more performance. Just me, as I am. Raw. Real. Free,' he began.
'I wore the armour a bit too long. But I never stopped searching for the bloke underneath it all. This is for the younger me who just wanted to be loved without pretending.
'And for anyone else out there still hiding. You don't have to be a symbol. Just be you.Rough edges and all. That's where the beauty is.'

Revealed: The plans for a huge, $230 million world-class film studio just outside of Sydney
Earlier this month, following the most successful Sydney Film Festival to date, the NSW Government announced it would commit $380 million to support the screen industry – including $100 million for a new film studio in the state. Now, plans for a potential studio on the Central Coast – just an hour's drive from Sydney's CBD – have been revealed. The 30-hectare site for Central Coast Studios is located in the town of Calga, 62 kilometres north of Sydney in the beautiful Glenworth Valley region of the Central Coast. Here, the team plans to build a $230 million world-class screen production facility featuring 10 sound stages, a film museum, production offices, an education and training precinct, and a series of studios for on-site production. The proposed plans include sustainable, accessible design that celebrates Australia's natural beauty, along with amenities such as a helipad and Australia's largest water tank. Plus, there will be room for expansion – with the team behind the project anticipating continued growth. With Australian screen, television, and digital game production on the rise, the aim is to support a new generation – with Central Coast Studios set to create more than 2,500 jobs in the area (across construction, screen production, hospitality and education). The project was conceived in 2020, and with industry leaders involved in the team, it was already on track to come to life under a self-funded, staged delivery model. The announcement of $100 million in government backing for a new film studio in the area could accelerate the project – we'll just have to watch this space to see if Central Coast Studios is the recipient of the funding. According to the team, the concept has already received praise from local and industry stakeholders – including tertiary education providers and community bodies – for its potential to boost employment in the area, with initial models estimating the studios would inject $500 million into the economy every year. Heath Bonnefin, Co-Director of Central Coast Studios and developer, explained: 'Our vision for Central Coast Studios is to put our beautiful region on the map – globally – as a leading destination for film, television and digital game production. The proposed studios precinct will not only create hundreds of professional roles in film, television and game development here on the Coast, but will also open up a host of new opportunities across tourism, education and small business – while ensuring long-term resilience and showcasing Greater Sydney.' here.

World's 50 Best Restaurants 2025: Odette at the National Gallery Singapore ranks 25th globally
We got a little taste of the World's 50 Best Restaurants 2025 list earlier this month, when the extended 51–100 rankings were released, and yes, local favourites made the cut. Burnt Ends, known for its modern Australian barbecue, and contemporary Singaporean restaurant Labyrinth secured spots 93 and 97 respectively. Now, the full list is out – and Odette has once again earned its place among the world's culinary elite. The elegant French restaurant, tucked within the National Gallery Singapore, comes in at number 25 this year. No stranger to the top 50, Odette has consistently appeared on the list since 2018, though it slips slightly from last year's 24th place. Helmed by chef Julien Royer, Odette is named after his grandmother, whose influence can be seen in his personal approach to French cuisine. While rooted in classic techniques, the menu carries subtle Asian flair, a nod to Chef Julien's time in the region. The restaurant's muted, light-toned interiors exude a sense of calm and quiet luxury, while the extensive wine list and impeccable service complete the dining experience. Here are the top 10 restaurants in the world in 2025: Maido (Lima) Asador Etxebaarri (Atxondo) Quintonil (Mexico City) Diverxo (Madrid) Alchemist (Copenhagen) Gaggan (Bangkok) Sézanne (Tokyo) Table by Bruno Verjus (Paris) Kjolle (Lima) Don Junio (Buenos Aires) View the full list here.

Ioan Gruffudd's wife Bianca Wallace reveals brutal reality of her pregnancy after his ex-Alice Evans shares reaction to their baby news: 'Some kind of torture'
's wife, Bianca Wallace, has shared a brutally honest account of her difficult pregnancy journey. The Australian actress, 32, who is expecting her first child with the Fantastic Four star, 51, took to Instagram to share a raw photo diary and series of emotional videos documenting what she described as 'some kind of torture' during her first trimester. 'Life lately… Some real moments, because no one needs to be as shocked as I was to find out how f**ked pregnancy actually is,' she wrote, alongside 13 images and videos detailing weeks of intense morning sickness and physical pain. In one confronting clip, Bianca is seen lying in bed with a heat pack, grimacing in pain as she describes how constant vomiting left her bedridden and unable to sleep. She revealed she vomited so violently she threw her back out for four days, and shared a snap of herself looking pale and drained after throwing up 67 times in one day. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The Australian actress, 32, who is expecting her first child with the Fantastic Four star, 51, took to Instagram to share a raw photo diary and series of emotional videos documenting what she described as 'some kind of torture' during her first trimester In another photo, she is seen clutching a bowl of cornflakes - one of the only foods she could stomach for weeks. The post was both a personal confession and a public service announcement. She reassured others who may be experiencing similarly rough pregnancies, writing: 'You're not crazy! More often than not it isn't just nausea and "morning sickness". It IS sh*t and rough and f**ked and it IS ok to be honest about it!' Her pregnancy update comes just over a week after Bianca and Ioan announced they were expecting their first child together, posting a sweet black-and-white image of the actor kissing his wife's baby bump. 'Baby Gruffudd poppin' out to say hello!' they captioned the snap, which was met with an outpouring of love from fans and celebrity friends. But while the couple's news delighted many, it appeared to trigger a scathing response from Ioan's ex-wife Alice Evans, 55, who shared her own cryptic post following the announcement. Without naming the couple, Alice wrote: 'Some people like to go low. I can't. Not because I'm better. But because I have kids. This s**t is some kind of torture.' The post sparked speculation among fans that it was a veiled dig at her ex and his new wife, reigniting tensions from the pair's bitter public split. Ioan and Alice finalised their divorce in July 2023 but remain locked in a fiery legal battle over spousal and child support for their two daughters, Ella, 15, and Elsie, 11. Court documents have detailed years of alleged abuse, online harassment, and restraining orders. Bianca was previously granted a three-year domestic violence restraining order against Alice, with Ioan claiming his ex had embarked on a 'smear campaign' against them. Despite the drama, Ioan and Bianca have pressed on with their life together, sharing footage in April of their low-key wedding ceremony with the caption: 'Mr & Mrs Gruffudd. Marriage now, wedding later.' Ioan, who currently stars in Bad Boys: Ride or Die, which has grossed over $400 million globally, has denied Alice's claims that she and their children have been left destitute, saying he's paid over $400,000 more than required under their prenup. Meanwhile, Alice recently revealed she had been evicted from her Los Angeles home, later launching a GoFundMe campaign to help her find housing. 'Thanks to all of you, my girls and I and Emma [the family dog] have a roof over our heads,' she said in a recent update, thanking supporters for their donations. While Ioan and Bianca continue to navigate the highs and lows of pregnancy – and public scrutiny – the couple appear focused on their growing family, with Bianca finishing her post on a lighter note, sharing that her dog Bubba has become her 'protector' through it all. 'This week… Bubba's still taking his protector job very seriously,' she wrote, sharing an adorable image of the pup curled up next to her baby bump.
