She successfully recovered from grueling treatment and emerged all the more determined to live her life to the fullest.

Having recently launched her autobiography and shoe line, this busy barrister has somehow managed to find the time to develop a new perfume that is soon to be launched.

Jackie Gillies, the youngest of the Housewives, is spiritual, sassy and stylish. Married to Silverchair drummer Ben Gillies, Jackie and Ben relocated from Newcastle to Melbourne for a creative breath of fresh air, and are now full-fledged Melbournians. Croatian born, Jackie leads a diverse and exciting life – from breakdancing, singing, attending A-list parties and checking out live music with Ben, it’s a true rock and roll lifestyle.

Their romance is nothing short of a fairy tale. Reconnecting 14 years after their first meeting during a TAFE music course, they tied the knot in 2010 and both confessed to having dreamt about being together. Jackie and Ben like to dream big, and so far, this faith has worked to their advantage. After launching their highly successful beverage company, Jackie and Ben have been busy promoting the business internationally and embarking on new adventures. In their downtime, the loved-up couple love spending time in their hometown, Newcastle.

As one of Australia’s highest profile professional psychics, Jackie’s proven history of connecting people to their loved ones has seen her talents in high demand, with both celebrities and long-time clients seeking out Jackie’s uplifting skills and guidance for advice and inspiration.

With a mantra like "shine, shine, shine" it’s no wonder that for Jackie Gillies, every day is a gift, ready to be opened.

@janetroachhw

Blonde bombshell, Janet Roach is a Property Developer who knows how to pack a punch. This self-made woman is worth more than her ex-husbands and is proud to say she can buy anything she desires - without looking at the price tag. Janet believes that plastic surgery "is a personal choice" and makes sure she stays looking her best with a little help from botox, fillers and a glass or two of champagne. For this fun loving blonde, there is no shortage of invitations to Melbourne’s top VIP events, but during downtime, Janet loves nothing more than getting down and dirty in her veggie patch at her much loved holiday house in Red Hill.

Janet says being mother to thirty-one year old Paul and twenty-seven year old Jake is the greatest achievement of her life, but with it came her greatest heartache. Several years ago, Janet’s world came crashing down when her son Jake suffered third-degree burns to seventy percent of his body at a friend’s party – only barely surviving. It’s been a long road to recovery, but Janet is deeply proud of Jake’s determination and courage and even teamed up to launch a business together last year. Their tea line, Raw Essentials funds a charitable foundation that supports both burns patients and their caretakers.

Although still looking for love, Janet is enjoying being single, and until Mr. Right comes along, she’s happy to date a few Mr. Wrongs.

Blonde bombshell, Janet Roach is a Property Developer who knows how to pack a punch. This self-made woman is worth more than her ex-husbands and is proud to say she can buy anything she desires - without looking at the price tag. Janet believes that plastic surgery "is a personal choice" and makes sure she stays looking her best with a little help from botox, fillers and a glass or two of champagne. For this fun loving blonde, there is no shortage of invitations to Melbourne’s top VIP events, but during downtime, Janet loves nothing more than getting down and dirty in her veggie patch at her much loved holiday house in Red Hill.

Janet says being mother to thirty-one year old Paul and twenty-seven year old Jake is the greatest achievement of her life, but with it came her greatest heartache. Several years ago, Janet’s world came crashing down when her son Jake suffered third-degree burns to seventy percent of his body at a friend’s party – only barely surviving. It’s been a long road to recovery, but Janet is deeply proud of Jake’s determination and courage and even teamed up to launch a business together last year. Their tea line, Raw Essentials funds a charitable foundation that supports both burns patients and their caretakers.

Although still looking for love, Janet is enjoying being single, and until Mr. Right comes along, she’s happy to date a few Mr. Wrongs.
