Her mother (Becki Hayes’ Lois) has lived in this town her whole life and River Allen (Mary Cameron Rogers) knows she’d willing suffer the same fate unless she forces herself to leave right now. It wouldn’t necessarily be a bad fate—regrets or not, Lois seems to enjoy the life she’s carved out over the years as a single mother amongst friends that care about her—but how would River ever know if something better were out there if she simply accepted it without at least trying? So she tells her best friend Amanda (Alexandra Rose) that’s she heading to California post-graduation and breaks the news to her boyfriend that she’ll be taking that journey alone. Move forward and don’t ever look back.

Writer-director Emily Skye’s River is ultimately setting the stage for its eponymous character’s return one year later, courtesy Lois’ tragic death,...

Fitness influencer Emily Skye says she battled depression at a young age, and tried to commit suicide at age 18.

The Australian trainer, 33, talked to Women’s Health Australia about the importance of mental health.

“It’s the most important thing,” Skye said. “I struggled pretty badly with depression for a long time and tried to end my life when I was about 18 … Now I think back to that and see it’s so important to talk about things, especially with young girls. A lot of people feel ashamed to have these feelings, but it’s actually a lot more common than we think.

Forget the 30-second transformations on Instagram — Emily Skye can do it in two.

The fitness influencer — who gave birth to her first child, daughter Mia, on Dec. 18 — showed how quickly and easily she can suck in her postpartum belly to hide her loose skin.

“For me this whole ‘snap back’ idea is unrealistic — it’s taking me hard work, consistency and patience,” Skye, 32, wrote on Instagram on Wednesday. “I’ve got a saggy belly, extra body fat, cellulite, stretch marks & I’ve lost a lot of muscle but my abs are still under there when I flex my butt off haha!

Emily Skye had heard about the “baby blues” before giving birth to her first child — but she never expected to actually develop postpartum depression during the first few weeks with her daughter Mia.

The fitness trainer opened up about being one of the millions of moms worldwide who deal with postpartum depression.

“I’d previously heard about the ‘baby blues’ but I never understood it. I couldn’t ever imagine feeling down after having Mia,” Skye, 33, wrote on Instagram on Sunday. “Well it happened to me! A few days after having her I started feeling really depressed, I hadn’t...

Fitness trainer Emily Skye is ready to get her strength back!

The Instagram influencer and new mom shared a photo of her “squishy” belly 23 days after giving birth to her daughter Mia to track her progress.

“I’m down roughly 14 kg. since I have birth (I’d gained about 21 kg. while preg),” Skye, 32, wrote on Instagram. “It just shows how much fluid I had! It’s great not to be swollen anymore too! My tummy isn’t completely down yet and it’s really squishy but it’s getting there.”

Skye said she had diastasis recti after the delivery, a...

Fitness trainer Emily Skye loves being a new mom, but she is still getting used to her post-baby body.

Five days after giving birth to her first child, a daughter named Mia Elise, Skye, 32, posted candid selfies on Instagram while holding her newborn.

“I barely recognise myself when I look in the mirror!” Skye captioned two photos on Instagram. “I’m far from a “glam mum”…I currently live in what you could call “granny undies”, it hurts to do much with the stitches from my episiotomy, and feeding is extremely painful.”

She continued: “I had no idea it would be this bad!

The wait is finally over!

Fitness trainer Emily Skye welcomed her first child, a daughter named Mia Elise, on Monday.

“So happy to finally meet my gorgeous girl Mia Elise Redmond,” Skye, 32, shared on Instagram.

Baby Mia weighed in at 7 lbs., 7 oz., and arrived just before noon on Monday in their hometown of Gold Coast, Queensland in Australia.

Skye’s partner, Declan Redmond, also shared a photo of Skye and Mia, writing, “The two loves of my life @emilyskyefit & Mia Elise Redmond.”

The glowing mom added, “@recdedmond & I having constant love explosions!!”

Skye carried Mia to full term, and was...

Emily Skye is ready to meet her baby girl Now.

The fitness trainer is officially at a full term pregnancy, and she’s desperate to induce labor — so she came up with the “Bikini Baby Belly Boogie” to try and dance the baby out.

“This poor little girl has a nut bag as a mother, no wonder she doesn’t want to get out!” Skye, 32, joked on Instagram. “C’Mon baby girl don’t be shy!! Sure, I’m as crazy as they come but I promise I’ll love you as much as the universe and there will Never...

Fitness trainer Emily Skye is the first to admit that her road to motherhood has had a few surprises.

The social media influencer, who is expecting her first child in December, has candidly described – and embraced – her body changes, which have included “extra body fat, cellulite and stretch marks.”

And now Skye is opening up again about the reality of pregnancy, taking to Instagram to post a photo of herself showing off her belly at 37 weeks and revealing she has gained 46 lbs. so far.

“My pregnancy hasn’t really gone to plan as far as my fitness is concerned. I...

Thanksgiving weekend is a time when we indulge — and fitness expert Emily Skye says that’s totally fine as long as you stay healthy before and after your feast.

“One of the ways I like to live my life is with balance,” Skye tells People. “Spending time with family and friends is really important, and being able to enjoy yourself with them without feeling restricted is also important. Thanksgiving and delicious meals go hand-in-hand, so enjoy yourself!”

The Australian health guru says having a couple of indulgent days “isn’t going to hurt.”

“I never feel guilty eating yummy delicious foods,...

If there’s one thing Emily Skye has learned during her pregnancy, it’s to expect the unexpected.

The fitness trainer intended to eat a fully organic diet without a drop of coffee, but her body had other plans.

“That did not happen,” Skye, 32, tells Fit Pregnancy and Baby for their December cover. “In my first trimester, I couldn’t stomach anything that wasn’t junk food. Burgers, chips, pizza. I ate anything fatty with high carbs. I hated vegetables, hated salads.”

“Pregnancy doesn’t always go according to plan. That’s why I think you shouldn’t have a set plan.

Pregnancy isn’t easy — even for a fitness trainer with millions of Instagram followers.

That’s what Emily Skye wants people to know as she enters her ninth month of pregnancy, and she’s making a point of showing on social media the less glamorous aspects of growing a baby.

“It’s something a lot of people go through, and I don’t think it’s really talked about enough, especially from people who have large followings,” Skye tells People. “A lot of the fitness trainers are still training really hard and don’t necessarily think about the issues that I guess you could say,...
