	A fascination of riches - smh.com.au
		This is partly because the scale and crassness of Rose Porteous's acquisitiveness during her marriage to Hancock is by local standards unparalleled, and weirdly fascinating.
		The answer is implied in Wainwright's portrayal of Rose: a sex bomb with a personality like a force of nature, bullying, wheedling and using every wile in the book to land her magnate.
		Rose would not have looked at him sideways and Rinehart would not have lined the pockets of countless lawyers trying to get justice concerning - or revenge on, depending on your perspective - her compelling stepmother.

	Rose Porteous - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		She rose to prominence in the 1980s as the central figure in a series of lawsuits launched by her former stepdaughter, Gina Rinehart, the daughter of Porteous's late husband, Australian iron ore pioneer, Lang Hancock.
		In October 2005 it was reported that Porteous was being sued for $14m by Melbourne-based law firm Slater and Gordon for legal fees they claimed she owed for representing her in Rinehart's lawsuits and eventually came to a settlement of $12.5m.
		After a brief stint in the tabloid media, Rose Porteous retreated to a more quiet life in Perth and is regarded as a recluse by the locals, although she still occasionally appears on lifestyle programs for television.

		While Rose is compelling in the manner of Who Weekly, the book might have been genuinely meaty had Wainwright sought an answer to the question of Rose's popularity among a scornful, but amused, Australian public.

	Adjudication 1052
		The Australian Press Council has dismissed complaints from Rose Porteous about articles in the 23 May 1999 Sunday Times, Perth, concerning an appeal for an inquest on the death of her then husband, mining magnate Lang Hancock.
		Mrs Porteous complains that the Sunday Times failed to report fairly that a submission for an inquest to the Western Australian Attorney-General by Perth QC Wayne Martin was made on behalf of Mr Hancock's daughter, Gina Rinehart, whose disputes with Mrs Porteous over Mr Hancock's death and estate have been very public.
		Mrs Porteous claims that the preceding paragraphs and the headline of the front-page article strongly suggested to the average reader that Mr Martin was acting independently, and that the newspaper had buried the fact that he was Mrs Rinehart's lawyer.
