Andy Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 Bec flies to Lleyton's side Sunday Telegraph 19 June 2005 SPORTING a bruised cheek and a wide grin, soap princess Bec Cartwright secretly flew out of Australia on Friday night to be at fiance Lleyton Hewitt's side for his first match at Wimbledon tomorrow. "I'm full of excitement," gushed Cartwright, 22, after she filmed her last scenes for Home And Away on Friday afternoon. The expectant mother, who was accompanied by her parents, Michele and Daryl, arrived at the airport with a prominent red graze on her cheek from a fall outside the Channel Seven studios at Epping on Wednesday. Cartwright went directly to Mascot from the studios on Friday night -- after she farewelled her co-stars -- and boarded a flight to London. "Everything is very positive," acknowledged a radiant Cartwright, who is four months pregnant and preparing for her wedding next month. Cartwright, who will still be seen on Home And Away until August, filmed her last scene for the Channel Seven soapie about 5pm on Friday afternoon. "It still doesn't feel real yet -- it only hit me yesterday," she said. "It's all starting to register. The saddest thing is leaving all the people here." Hewitt, who is making a comeback from rib and toe injuries, plays Belgian Christophe Rochus in his first match at Wimbledon tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 Bruised Bec flies out Sunday Herald Sun 19 June 2005 BEC Cartwright and fiance Lleyton Hewitt are laying claim to being Australia's most accident prone couple. Sporting a sizeable black eye and a raised red cut on her right cheek, a battered and bruised Cartwright left Sydney bound for London on Friday night. The four-month pregnant soapy star sustained her injuries after falling over on the set of Home and Away on Wednesday while dashing between the studio and the green room. The incident was described as "quite minor" by Seven sources with the actor able to continue filming. But in the past two days, bruising has come up, making her injury look more dramatic. The facial bruising did not prevent Cartwright from filming her final scenes on Home and Away on Friday. In yet another example of life imitating art, the storyline called for Cartwright's character Hayley to end up battered and bruised in a hospital bed. Her real life injuries where incorporated into the scene. In the past months, the line between Cartwright's screen life and real life have been blurred. She announced her pregnancy around the same time as her character Hayley found out she was expecting a child on the show. Then Hewitt filmed a cameo as Hayley's mysterious Summer Bay admirer. It seems the clumsy streak is something Cartwright and Hewitt share. Hewitt had to withdraw from the French Open after falling over in his $4.5 million Sydney home last month, cracking ribs. Cartwright will join Hewitt courtside in London tomorrow as he begins his assault on Wimbledon. The couple then head back to Australia for their July 21 wedding.

beaus_babe04 Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 She looks weird in that pic. I wonder how haley ends up battered. If its real bad thats how they could explain the change of actress. She had plastic surgery and that is how she looks so different. She dyed her hair cause it went better with her new face.

The london/sydney flight is a total killer. I'll second that! We went London - Vienna, straight onto the next plane which refuelled at Kuala Lumpur and I had no sleep at all! I nearly collapsed when I got to Sydney airport, then I had to navigate all through the city and up to Palm Beach! I'd imagaine Bec would have had a more comfortable flight though!
