After being together for over 40 years, Goldie Hawn, 80, and Kurt Russell, 74, are finally getting hitched. According to friends, the Hollywood couple are set to say ‘I do’ on an undisclosed Greek island, with an intimate ceremony planned. Reports claim the big day is scheduled for March and will be a double celebration for the couple – who began dating in 1983 – with Kurt’s 75th birthday taking place a few days prior. Their four children will no doubt be present, including actor son Wyatt Russell, plus Kate and Oliver Hudson – Goldie’s kids from her first marriage – and Boston Russell, from Kurt’s former marriage. Another celeb ready to walk down the aisle is James Martin, who – despite previously insisting he’d never marry – is now…

Prince William & Kate ESTIMATED JOINT WORTH: £20-30 MILLION William’s wealth largely stems from his mother Princess Diana’s £10–13m inheritance, while Kate’s fortune reflects shared royal assets. This excludes William’s £22.9m Duchy of Cornwall income. Prince Harry & Meghan ESTIMATED JOINT WORTH: £45-60 MILLION Harry also inherited a similar chunk to William from Princess Diana, while post-royal wealth comes from Netflix and book deals, speaking fees and brand partnerships, boosted by Meghan’s acting income and endorsements. King Charles & Queen Camilla ESTIMATED JOINT WORTH: £600 MILLION+ King Charles’s £600m+ wealth is largely tied to the Duchy of Lancaster and private assets including art, jewellery and investments, with Camilla sharing royal and private holdings, much of it tied up in estates rather than personal cash.

He’s celebrating a decade of his Big Show this year, but Michael McIntyre is also marking another major milestone – he turns 50 this February. As the big day draws closer, the comedian says he feels he’s approaching a ‘midlife crisis’ and could even be tempted to go under the knife. ‘I feel like I might get some plastic surgery soon,’ he quipped. ‘My eyes have been drooping for 20 years.’ Combined with his recent shape-up – Michael has admitted to using weightloss medication – the star could become unrecognisable as he enters his 50s.…

Risky Liz Actor Liz Hurley, 60, proudly showed off her incredible figure in new bikini snaps. She kicked off 2026 with a trip to the Maldives with son Damian, 23, where they were ‘spoilt rotten’ on a private island. Not jealous at all! Embarrassing dad He’s set to strip off on stage in Boyband In The Buff, but Gareth Gates’s daughter Missy won’t be watching. The 16-year-old is ‘mortified’ by the show, according to Gareth, 41, who added that she’s usually supportive, but was ‘sceptical’ of this one. Tina's snub As Adolescence star Owen Cooper held his Golden Globe, he paid tribute to those who helped him get there. However, the 16-year-old forgot Corrie’s Tina O’Brien, founder of the acting school The Drama Mob, where he studied. Oops!…

She has bravely opened up on her battle with lipoedema – an often painful condition which causes tenderness and aching in the limbs due to the build-up of abnormal fats in the body. Now, after undergoing liposuction on her calves to relieve her of the pain, sources tell Bella that former Big Brother star Josie Gibson is ready to turn her attention to another part of her life – love. ‘Josie blamed herself’ The This Morning host, who recently celebrated her 41st birthday, hasn’t had a boyfriend in the public eye since splitting from the father of her sevenyear-old son Reggie, in January 2019. She did announce she was dating a mystery man, and had even told him she ‘loved’ him, in 2023, but the romance seemed to be over…

The new Very Fast 800 High Fibre online programme, devised by the experts at The Fast 800 plan, is a calorie-controlled, high-protein and higher fibre way of eating that’s suitable for everyone – whether you’re on weight-loss medication or not. ‘Because the GLP-1 drugs suppress your appetite, users are at risk of nutritional deficiency by skipping meals or making poor food choices,’ says Dr Jack Mosley, son of the late Dr Michael Mosley. He points out, ‘You can’t squander your meagre appetite or calorie allowance on fatty or carb-heavy meals, which are more likely to trigger side effects such as nausea or heartburn. When you’re eating smaller quantities, you have to really focus on getting enough protein to protect your muscles and enough fibre to offset the way the medication…

As the little girl clutched her doll to her chest, she turned to her mother with a beaming smile. But this wasn’t just any doll – it bore a true resemblance to her, not just in hair colour and skin tone, but in something much more significant. Like the girl, the doll was missing its forearm. She hugged it tightly as though she was thinking, ‘Hey! You look just like me.’ Watching that scene unfold moved me to tears, just as it had so many times before. Experiences like that never lose their power over me, bringing everything full circle; back to the reason I started making dolls in the first place. When I worked as a children’s social worker in a cancer unit, I spent my days surrounded by…

As Eamonn Holmes’s relationship with girlfriend Katie Alexander begins to get more serious, the GB News presenter has reportedly splashed out on a new holiday home in Northern Ireland – much to ex-wife Ruth Langsford’s annoyance. The former couple’s divorce is still to be finalised, but Eamonn, 66, has evidently put the split firmly behind him. ‘Ruth was obviously very peeved when the news broke about Eamonn’s new love nest,’ a source tells Bella. ‘She felt like this was just two fingers up at her.’ Ruth, 65, predicts there is more to come from Eamonn, with the insider claiming she’s prepared for her ex to remarry. ‘She thinks it’ll be an engagement next, if he’s not already popped the question. He has done everything else under her nose and then…

Emma Willis has opened up on being ‘floored’ when she was told she had gone 48 years without knowing she had a hole in her heart. The TV favourite, now 49, has admitted it changed her perspective on life. ‘The mental shift was the biggest challenge, because it terrifies you,’ the mum-of-three – who underwent successful surgery to have the hole closed – said. Emma is now championing the British Heart Foundation’s campaign aimed at raising awareness of heart conditions, which coincides with her taking over Zoe Ball’s BBC Radio 2 slot.…

Six years have now passed since Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle sensationally quit royal life, leaving the monarchy ‘blindsided’. Since then, the Sussexes have raked in around £75 million in deals with Hollywood’s biggest power players including Netflix, Apple and Spotify, who were all lining up for a slice of their story. But with the royal family facing some challenging times in the last few years, the tide has turned in favour of the monarchy – even Stateside – where Harry, 41, and Meghan, 44, had once been hailed as Montecito’s golden power couple. Now, as their popularity seemingly continues to decline, the parents-of-two are also said to be floundering when it comes to their finances. ‘From their view it’s unfair’ By contrast, a 2024/2025 report published by…

It’s no understatement to say that the world was rocked by Brooklyn Beckham’s damning claims against his parents last week. In a lengthy statement to his 16.5 million Instagram followers, the eldest child of Victoria and David Beckham didn’t hold back on why he doesn’t want to ‘reconcile’ with his family – saying he was telling ‘the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed’. Among Brooklyn’s claims, there were several allegations surrounding his 2022 nuptials to wife Nicola Peltz. Despite reports the actor, 31, had opted to wear a non-VB designed gown, the aspiring chef, 26, said, ‘My mum cancelled making Nicola’s dress [in] the eleventh hour, despite how excited she was to wear her design, forcing her to urgently find a new dress.’ Brooklyn also…

In 2015, Abbie Draper’s grandfather John died after spending several months in hospital following a stroke. It was a heartbreaking time, and for Abbie – who was a finalist in the Miss Scotland beauty pageant – her memories of his final months are tainted. During his illness, Abbie received a Facebook friend request from a ‘handsome’ man named David Graham, claiming he was one of her grandad’s doctors. She was in awe and spent weeks messaging back and forth. But after noticing a series of red flags, Abbie turned detective and, when the hospital revealed there was no staff member by that name, she reached out to David online. With the help of two other women, she discovered the jawdropping truth – the person behind the account wasn’t David Graham,…

Should I tell her I know? Q I’ve known my friend since we were at school together and we’re now in our 30s, both married with children. She’s always been very beautiful, clever, and succeeds at whatever she puts her mind to. She has a powerful job but always manages to have her kids in the best costume on dress-up days, and makes the most incredible cakes for the school fetes. I don’t know how she does it! But, over the years, I’ve begun to realise that she has an eating disorder. Just little things here and there. Missing meals, and moving her food around her plate instead of eating it. I’ve never brought it up with her. The other day, she made a comment that I felt was her way…
