Ridwaan Bawa, the editor of Men's Health, has tweeted that he has resigned and that September 2010 will be his last month at the magazine, and Caxton Magazines has announced that Tanya Kovarsky has been appointed as editor of parenting title Living & Loving, with Cleo deputy editor Natalie Pool replacing Kovarsky as editor of Cleo.

Bawa (@ridwaanbawa) has been editor of Men's Health for three years. Editorial director Jason Brown will look after the men's title in the interim.

Kovarsky (@TanyaKovarsky) started off at Caxton Newspapers on the North Eastern Tribune, and subsequently grew with the company, having worked at Marie Claire and Food & Home Entertaining, before she became the editor of Essentials and CLEO magazines.

Says Kovarsky, "From cute bachelors at CLEO to booties, bottles and adorable babies at Living & Loving, I'm so excited with my move. As a new mom, I can relate to stretchmarks, sleepless nights and juggling career and motherhood, and I look forward to giving our readers everything they need and want in a parenting magazine - like advice on how to get eight hours of uninterrupted sleep!"

Twenty-seven year old Pool joined the South African syndication of the popular Australian title in 2007 as a features writer, then features editor and deputy editor.

Comments Pool, "It's an incredible opportunity and a wonderful challenge but one that I am so excited and ready for. I fell in love with the magazine the minute I laid eyes on its first issue and knew that I had to work here. Fortunately, Caxton believed in me enough to give me a chance and they've had my back ever since.

"I'm thrilled to pick up where Tanya left off and lead Cleo into a new era of bachelor searches, confidence boosters, fearless fashion and everything else that makes it a girl's best friend."

Living & Loving recently published its 40th birthday anniversary issue. Cleo in South Africa is three years old.
