As she landed back from Turkey following her latest multiple surgeries, Katie Price appeared to be in good spirits despite being wrapped in painful-looking bandages after undergoing tweaks to her eyes, nose and ears in her shocking bid for a 'Bratz doll' look. However, sources tell Closer that as the former glamour model recovers, she's in for a shock as some of her exes have reportedly lined up to dish the dirt on their relationships with the mum of five for a sensational tell-all TV documentary to expose 'the real' Katie Price. With her former fiancés Carl Woods and Kris Boyson, as well as ex-husband Kieran Hayler – who has reportedly already signed a book deal to release his memoir about his 'chaotic' life with Katie – ready to open…

It's been an encouraging and exciting start to the new year for Kate Middleton, who, after announcing that she is in remission from an undisclosed form of cancer, is now said to be in talks for the global covers of esteemed fashion bible Vogue. And insiders say that as she hopes to increase her public-facing duties, the Princess of Wales has turned to fashion powerhouse Victoria Beckham – a close pal of the royals along with football legend husband David – for her expertise. The source says, 'After everything she's been through, Kate's keen to shake things up a bit and start making more of her position as a global fashion icon. She's always enjoyed that side of royal duties, with film premieres, Royal Variety Shows and Wimbledon, for example,…

She's had a rollercoaster journey with her weight over the years, but last week Denise Welch wowed fans when she posted a stunning bikini pic from her holiday abroad. The actress and Loose Women star, 66, looked happy and healthy as she grinned in her two-piece, captioning the picture, 'Does anyone else have a “do absolutely nothing” holiday?'. Fans and famous pals alike rushed to praise Denise, with former Corrie co-star Sally Dynevor posting, 'Wow you look amazing' and radio presenter Zoe Ball writing, 'looking fabulous D'. Denise – who was on holiday with husband of 12 years, Lincoln Townley – has previously opened up about her struggles with alcohol, food and her mental health, saying that after realising she had a drinking problem and getting sober in 2012, she…

When Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury announced their shocking split last August, it made headline news. After meeting on Love Island in 2019, getting engaged and becoming proud parents to daughter Bambi, two, the pair appeared to have a perfect relationship. For months, speculation was rife about their split, but now the former couple have revealed it was due to Tommy's alcohol dependency, which began after a boxing injury. In a candid interview, Tommy said, 'We broke up because I had a problem with alcohol, and I couldn't be the partner that I wanted to be any more – it kills me to say it, but I couldn't. 'I loved a pint of beer, loved to drink. If you're in the same spot as me, where you just think that…

'There's no going back for me and Ryan' Meanwhile, Kerry isn't ready to expand on what happened between her and Ryan, but she resolutely says there's no going back. She reveals, 'It's very complicated because we're still business partners – we don't talk, we just email. There's absolutely no going back, not in a million years, I know my worth. My kids are glad it's over, the toxicity of our arguments slipped into their lives, which devastated me once they told me. I've had the rug pulled out from under me and I've had to build myself back up.' She adds, 'I knew deep down I'd never marry Ryan; you don't get engaged for five years without the big day. I was never sure, but I wish him nothing but…

Common items need swapping more often than you might think • TOOTHBRUSH Both electric heads and manual brushes are less effective at removing plaque as the bristles wear down. The NHS suggests buying a new one every three months, or after illness. • CLEANING PRODUCTS Many have a natural shelf life of two years before active ingredients start to degrade. Check instructions on how to safely dispose of old products. • PILLOWS According to the National Bed Federation, two to three years is a good benchmark, as pillows start to offer less support, as well as becoming a haven for dust mites and dead skin… lovely!

At 13, Ellie Reynolds was like any other teenager. She loved music and hanging out with friends. Each weekend, she and her mum, Kara, would head down to the fields near their home in Barrow-in-Furness to look after their horses. Then, in 2014, Ellie started seeing a boy from school. At his house, she met his cousin and her boyfriend, Shaha Joman Miah, who was known as Saj. Ellie says, 'He was creepy. He never said much but just stared at me and made me feel uncomfortable.' Soon after, Ellie's life changed forever. She says, 'One day I was walking to a friend's house and out of nowhere a car drew up. The door flew open, and a man grabbed me and pulled me into the rear footwell. He put…

Seeing as she was on the very first series of All Stars last year, Liberty Poole, 25, knows all too well what it's like to return to the villa. Currently loved up with boyfriend Joshua Raybould, she's happy to be watching the drama unfold from the comfort of her own home. She shares with Closer her thoughts on this year's Islanders‚ and hits back against fans' claims that Ekin-Su Cülcüloglu is playing a game. Some viewers think Ekin-Su is acting, do you think that's true? Unless she's into method acting, it'd be impossible to hold that persona up 24 hours a day. People might think there's moments of acting, but everyone expresses themselves differently. You can see the chemistry between her and Curtis, I don't think she's faking it. To…

Ever since news broke last year that Kyle Walker had cheated on wife Annie Kilner and fathered a second child with influencer Lauryn Goodman, there's been a whirlwind of feuding and drama. Now, the footballer's new career move is shaking things up again. Manchester City player Kyle, 34, is set to relocate to Italy ahead of his loan to Italian club AC Milan. As news broke, sources close to Kyle's ex-partner Annie shared that the 31-year-old – who has four sons with Kyle – planned to join him. Insisting their divorce was still on the cards, they said, 'She is making the move to Italy for the sake of the family.' However, Annie was notably absent during Kyle's unveiling in Milan. Reports soon surfaced that the star had been due…

PETS ARE SO GREAT FOR GIVING YOU A BOOST… Spending time with my dog is great for my mental health – my Chihuahua is literally my life. If I ever feel in a bad mood or have a bad day, he'll just comfort me and always makes me feel so much better. Cuddles and kisses with him make me feel happy. I HAVE A BATH EVERY DAY… That's really my time to relax. Sometimes I'll listen to a podcast while in the bath, and that's nice. I'm not in there for hours, but it's just enough time for me to wind down at the end of the day and take time for myself. MY ELECTRIC BLANKET HELPS ME SLEEP BETTER… I really struggle getting off to sleep, but it's been…

How much do you spend? I spend about £25 a week on groceries, though it really depends on what I need that week. I absolutely love Marks & Spencer for its gluten-free range – the quality and taste of its products are unmatched. For everything else, I head to Aldi or Tesco. Describe your daily diet… I follow intermittent fasting, which means I stop eating at 9pm and don't start again until 1pm the next day. For lunch, I keep it light. If I'm at home, I'll usually go carbfree – something like an omelette packed with veggies, or a fresh salad with meats and cheeses. When I'm on the go, a small supermarket sushi pack is my go-to. Dinner is my main meal. I love filling my plate with…

After a TikTok influencer posted that she had been 'radicalised' by seeing a model with 'a full bush in a bikini', her post went viral, sparking the 'pubic hair positivity movement' across other platforms. But I've seen many personal grooming trends come and go – in a few months' time, everyone will want it all off again. If you do, remember that grooming your pubic hair is not something you have to do. You don't see many women in the developing world doing anything to theirs, but in the Western World (America, Australia, Europe and the UK) it's a much bigger deal. But removing all your pubic hair could put your health at risk. PUBES HAVE A PURPOSE There are many theories as to why we have pubic hair. It's…

GRUMPY GRAM Karen's FUMING. When she told the costume department she wanted 'something saucy – like a condiment that contains tomatoes' she obviously meant Salsa. Whoever heard of the Ketchup dance?…

She endured a distressing 18 months, which saw her cut ties with best friend Phillip Schofield, become the target of a planned kidnap, rape and murder plot, and step back from This Morning after 14 years at the helm. And for the first time since she discovered the threat to her safety back in October 2023, Holly Willoughby has given a wide-ranging interview, laying bare how stalker Gavin Plumb's heinous plot – which resulted in him being sentenced to life imprisonment last July – has affected her life. While Holly bravely reflected on her turmoil, she failed to speak about her estranged best friend Phillip, who she fell out with in 2023 amid his admission of lying about an 'unwise but not illegal' affair with a younger male colleague. REVENGE…

Since her bitter split from Eamonn Holmes last year, Ruth Langsford has been embracing her single era – but while the TV star is living her best life, a source tells Closer that her ex is beginning to doubt his choices. The Loose Women star has enjoyed a string of wild nights out since announcing the end of her 14-year marriage to Eamonn. Last week, Ruth, 64, was spotted partying with close friends Rylan Clark, 36, and Lizzie Cundy, 56. Meanwhile insiders say that Eamonn, 65 – who has moved on with girlfriend Katie Alexander, 43 – has been plagued with health issues and that 'cracks are beginning to show' in his new life. Opening up about Eamonn's relationship with Katie – who's 22 years his junior – the insider…

When Casey O'Gorman entered the Love Island: All Stars villa on his third quest for romance, many expected to see him revert to his playboy ways which have seen him earn a less than glowing reputation. But it seems that one girl has managed to tame him, as he happily coupled up with Gabby Allen following his arrival. Now, Gabby's friend and fellow series three Islander, Tyla Carr, tells Closer what she thinks of the pairing and their steamy Hideaway trip… How are you finding watching Gabby on All Stars? I'm loving watching her on there, she seems really happy, so that's nice to see. Were you surprised by her coupling with Casey? I was surprised. I just hope he doesn't stray if somebody else comes into the villa. But…

Fans were giddy with Bridget Jones fever as the stars of the popular rom-com franchise flocked to London for the premiere of the latest instalment, Mad About The Boy. Leading lady Renée Zellweger pulled out all the stops for the occasion last week, posing up a storm in a striking fuchsia gown as she stopped for red-carpet photographs with her co-stars Hugh Grant and Leo Woodall. The beaming actress, 55 – who made her debut as the wholly relatable Bridget back in 2001 – was also accompanied by her boyfriend, Ant Anstead, on the special evening, with the pair looking blissfully happy as they left the after-party hand-in-hand. But the snaps sparked speculation that there was a specific reason Renée couldn't keep the smile off her face, after fans questioned…

Simply add a sparkly bag and metallic shoes to take things up a notch. MERLOT MOMENT Wary of head-to-toe red? Embrace the trend with small pops of colour, like a burgundy jacket paired with a silky skirt. A statement tee will make your outfit feel casual enough for drinks with the girls. EFFORTLESS ELEGANCE Enjoy a princess moment à la Paris Hilton in a bubblegum-pink frock. Matching…

As Kerry Katona arrives to our photo shoot, she's brimming with energy and confidence. In fact, in-between striking a pose in her bikini, she prompts us to feel her toned stomach. 'Go on, don't be shy love, give us your hand,' she says with her trademark northern accent, 'Can you feel that? I've never had such rockhard abs in my life!' The 44-year-old star is justifiably proud of her body after going on a health-kick, and has lost an impressive two stone over the last six months. SIZE 6 But while she's spent most of December in back-to-back pantomime shows performing alongside pal Katie Price and navigating a split from her ex of six years, Ryan Mahoney, the former pop star admits she didn't quite realise how much weight she…

'This nostalgic classic is traditionally a custard-flavoured, shortbread-style cookie filled with vanilla buttercream. Perfect for sharing with those you love.' EMELIA JACKSON'S RASPBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE MELTING MOMENTS STEP 1 Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan 160°C. Line two baking trays with baking paper. STEP 2 Using an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and icing sugar until light and fluffy. Sift in the plain flour and custard powder. Mix until a soft dough forms. STEP 3 Divide the dough into 32 evenly-sized balls (about 15g each). Place on the baking trays, leaving space for spreading, and gently press down with the back of a fork. STEP 4 Bake the cookies for 15-18min – they should appear dry and cooked through without becoming golden brown. Allow to cool…

Tune in to Closer's pick of the telly everyone's talking about This new series feels even more personal than the last… Well, it's one thing to talk about sex on stage and be able to hide behind a punchline, and it's another to sit with a marriage coach and have your husband reveal you had sex in the bathroom. I found Bobby to be even more transparent about these issues than I am – I turned out to be quite a prude about our sex life. The marriage coach says you interject too much – did that come as a shock to you? I was really shocked, because I've had therapy by myself, and the danger of solo therapy is that that person is paid to make you feel good about…
