The life of Posh Spice has been detailed in headlines for decades – but now fans are about to get a closer look at the star in her new Netflix documentary, Victoria Beckham. The three-part docuseries traces Victoria’s life, from her formative years growing up in Hertfordshire, the Spice Girls’ world domination and her highprofile relationship with footballer David Beckham, to how she took on the cut-throat world of fashion. And the trailer for the series has given viewers a hint at what’s to come when it airs on 9 October. One clip sees Victoria, 51, say, ‘People thought that I was that miserable cow that never smiled. But I do! Don’t be shocked.’ Elsewhere, the star paid tribute to her humble upbringing, saying, ‘[I’ve] never forgotten where I’ve come…

Coleen Nolan has not seen her beloved granddaughter Amelia Rose for nearly seven years, according to reports. As she prepares to welcome two more grandchildren into her fold, it’s emerged that the Loose Women star, 60, has lost contact with her first grandchild after her son Shane and his ex Emma Kivell – Amelia’s mother – fell out. ‘At the time Amelia Rose was born, Coleen was on cloud nine. She was so proud and she fell in love with the baby, but Shane and Emma aren’t together, and these situations can become quite hard to navigate,’ an insider said. ‘Shane promised to support Emma as she set about her journey into motherhood as a single mum along with the support of her own family, but now there is no…

Royal watchers were thrilled on 10 September as Prince Harry appeared to make the first steps in healing his rift with King Charles. But there is an irony to the private 55-minute, father-and-son peace summit at Clarence House – as relations within the rest of the royal family appear to have been unravelling ever since. Rather than Harry’s possible return to The Firm bringing them closer together, the news is said to have set off a chain reaction, sparking a series of toxic feuds among the senior royals, who are beginning to turn on each other… ‘He’ll have no part in a reunion’ ‘Wills is angry with Harry’ It’s hardly a secret that there’s no love lost between Harry and Prince William – and Harry’s recent meeting has caused havoc.…

Claudia: ‘Hosting the celebs was scary' It’s almost time for a new series of The Traitors – but not as we know it. This season will be the first time that celebrity contestants take part in the UK version of the hit TV show. With host Claudia Winkleman at the helm, stars such as Stephen Fry, Celia Imrie, Kate Garraway and Alan Carr will take part to try and bag the £100k prize fund for a charity of their choice. Here, presenter Claudia and contestants Clare Balding and Paloma Faith spill all on how they found the experience… What were your first thoughts about Celebrity Traitors? I was scared to be honest. Only because I’m in love with this show and I wanted to keep it small. Once a year…

My twin boys Jack and Ben were identical and alike in many ways, but also very different. Ben was the more outgoing one while Jack was quieter and happy to follow his brother’s lead. They were inseparable and did everything together. I raised them by myself, with help from my mum and close friends. In March 2019, when they were 11, Ben came home from school rubbing his head. ‘I’ve had a right headache today, Mum,’ he said. At first, I thought he might need his eyes tested, but the headaches continued and a couple of weeks later, he started being sick. Over the following month, I kept taking him to the GP, but they said it was just a tummy bug. Deep down, I knew something was wrong. One…

When it comes to exercise, Julia does a twice-weekly strength session and she also uses a rebounder, which is a small fitness trampoline. ‘I love it,’ she says. ‘It’s amazing for bone density and it gets my body moving. I use it regularly throughout the week – sometimes I’ll bounce while the kids are watching TV, or I’ll do 10 minutes when I get home after a long day. Of course, I walk too, and do 10,000 steps every day. She says, ‘Every eight days, I do what I call my “horrible day”. I sprint for two minutes, then run at a gentler pace of three minutes, then sprint as fast as I can for two minutes, and then I run at a gentle pace for three minutes. I do…

AFTER 10st 11lb Size 14 BEFORE 17st 12lb Size 24-26 Waking up in bed, I groaned at the familiar feeling of thudding head. It was New Year’s Day 2020 and I decided enough was enough. I’d lost count of the number of gin and tonics I’d drunk and the amount of calories I’d consumed the night before. But it wasn’t just the one night I’d over-indulged, it had been the whole festive period, and most of my life too. I’d been overweight for as long as I could remember. By the time I was 15, I was already a size 16. I’d pop out to the sweet shop whenever I had a spare minute and buy packets of mini gems and smoky bacon flavour crisps. When I left school at…

£50 Star letter Tragic loss Reading Elizabeth Mcaninch-Diamond’s story ‘My husband died after falling ill on our honeymoon’ (issue 37) filled me with such sadness. They had only been married for six weeks when he caught the bacterial disease leptospirosis while they were in Jamaica, which turned fatal. What should have been a dream trip and the start of their new life together turned into a nightmare. How inspiring of Elizabeth to save others suffering from the same fate by sharing her story. Polly Savant, Stamford Charming Craig I loved reading the interview with Craig Revel Horwood (issue 37) and seeing another side to him than his Mr Nasty persona on Strictly Come Dancing. It’s heartening – and reassuring – to discover that while he may be a dance guru,…

We’re used to seeing Amanda Holden oozing glamour on the Britain’s Got Talent panel or renovating properties abroad with her pal Alan Carr. But for her new show The Inner Circle, the 54-year-old is stepping into the role of quizmaster for the first time. The game show has been described as a mix of The Traitors and much-loved classic Golden Balls, with contestants being told in private the cash amount they will contribute if they make the final and trying to persuade the other players to take them through. In the final, a decision is then made to ‘split’ the prize or ‘shaft’ their fellow finalist. Here, Amanda spills all on the addictive new show… What made you want to host The Inner Circle? I feel so lucky in my…

When Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes announced last May that they were divorcing after 27 years together and 14 years of marriage, many fans of the Daytime TV hosts were shocked. But a source tells Bella that friends of the couple were less surprised, as they had been living separate lives behind-the-scenes for two years. The insider says, ‘People knew Eamonn and Ruth were cohabiting, and their marriage was over a long time before it hit the headlines. It got to the point of no return, and their marriage had become a business arrangement that neither of them wanted to officially move to divorce. It appeared to be a marriage of convenience for the last two years; they shared their home and continued to support one another, and stayed together…

Over the last couple of decades, protein has been the buzz word when it comes to nutrition and weight loss. But those of us who lived through the ’80s remember the global sensation that was The F-Plan Diet, which promoted eating more fibre – a carbohydrate found in foods such as vegetables, nuts and pulses. The book sold over four million copies worldwide, and many diets were based around its high-fibre and low-fat ethos as a result of its influence. Fibre diets vs The F-Plan Steve Bennett, author of The Fibre First Diet (available from Amazon and book stores, £24) says that although the F-Plan diet resulted in weight loss through calorie restriction and low-fat eating, it didn’t necessarily promote good overall health. He explains, ‘The ’80s F-Plan diet was…

EastEnders alumni Letitia Dean stunned fans with her amazing figure as she made her recent return to the soap. Viewers praised the 57-yearold, who is back in Albert Square as Sharon Watts, as she flaunted her slimmed-down body in skintight leggings. ‘She looks incredible,’ one viewer commented, with another adding, ‘As gorgeous as ever. The Queen is back.’ Letitia has previously revealed how she dropped four dress sizes and lost over 2st – going from 10st 4lb to 8st 3lb – within just four months by transforming her lifestyle. She gave up junk food and now eats a balanced diet and works out regularly. ‘I was so sick of extreme dieting and my weight yo-yoing. I just woke up one morning, and I’d had enough,’ she said. ‘It was incredible.…

Tributes have flooded in for veteran news broadcaster John Stapleton, who has died at the age of 79 after complications linked to Parkinson’s disease and pneumonia. The former Good Morning Britain star – whose wife Lynn died in 2020 following a stroke – is survived by their journalist son Nick, 37. Leading the tributes was GMB’s Ranvir Singh, 48. Praising John’s ‘wisdom,’ Ranvir emotionally wrote, ‘In my bleakest career moment, knowing I’d be feeling alone, lost, with a tiny baby and, as a single mum and sole earner, [John] was this man who held me up and gave me the confidence to keep going. I owe him so much.’ Charlotte Hawkins, 50, described John as a ‘genuinely lovely man’, with Susanna Reid, 54, adding, ‘He was part of this programme’s…

Gathering up the singers’ empty bowls, I spotted the choirmaster Jack hovering by the counter. ‘I’m here if you ever need a shoulder to cry on,’ he told me. I ran the town’s ice-cream parlour, and though I loved my business, I’d been having a difficult couple of months. My dad had cancer, and I was struggling to cope. The local choir regularly visited my parlour and Jack always offered to lend a hand. He was charming, charismatic and a talented musician. The choristers adored him. So, when he asked me out on a date to a local restaurant, I was delighted. Just a few weeks later, in January 2014, my father passed away. ‘I’ll help with the parlour while you’re arranging the funeral,’ Jack said. He was caring and…

When Bella catches up with Julia Bradbury, she pops up on Zoom wearing a stylish brown bikini, with palm trees gently swaying behind her. Looking tanned and rested, she’s on a health retreat in Ibiza, where she’s been doing a mix of yoga and breathwork. It’s certainly a far cry from nearly four years ago, when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and facing gruelling treatment. For Julia, her illness – which involved having a 6cm tumour removed from her left breast and a mastectomy – has sparked a passionate hunger to learn all she can about health and longevity. ‘I’m certainly more aware of my vulnerabilities now,’ says the star, who is married to property developer Gerard Cunningham. ‘Being confronted with a very serious health problem like cancer made…

When Jessica Biel rocked that backless white dress in Prime Video’s The Better Sister, the internet went wild. But the 43-year-old actor admitted her peak shape on screen came down to a seriously strict routine, confessing, ‘It’s not maintainable unless you’re living the most rigid lifestyle with your food and fitness.’ Rather than gatekeeping, she broke down the workout routine move by move, even leaving in the bits where she’s breathless, joking, ‘My body’s not 20 any more.’ Celebrity trainer Aimee Victoria Long, who works with high-profile clients like Bridgerton star India Amarteifio, told us ‘Her routine is clever because it targets the posterior chain – the glutes, hamstrings and lower back. These are vital for posture, power and injury prevention, but are often neglected. Hip thrusts build strength and…

Budget buy ‘I think moisturisers are often really overpriced, so I always use a Garnier one – it’s backed by science, and is amazing for the price!’ Lush Lashes ‘If I’m going out in the evening, I would curl my eyelashes and layer on plenty of mascara! I use a tubing mascara by Hourglass – it is unbelievably good.’ Beauty regrets ‘I got Botox twice on my crow’s feet, and it was like I was dead behind the eyes, which is sad because people can’t read your emotions as well. I realised that in the search for youth, I was alienating people from seeing how I was feeling.’ Bella recommends trying a blurring cream instead. Supplement savvy ‘True Collagen is convenient, tasteless, and it works. When I take it, I…

How can I help support my son losing his dad? Q My son’s dad is terminally ill. We haven’t been together for six years (since my son was four) so this isn’t going to hit me personally, but I would like to know how I can make it as painless as possible for my son. He’s now in a hospice and is barely conscious but I take my son to see him whenever he asks, usually every other day. He was a good dad, even though he wasn’t a good husband. What can I do to make these last few days as meaningful as possible for my son? This has all happened so suddenly that his dad hasn’t had the time to prepare him, to write him letters to open on…

ANNE HATHAWAY & DAISY EDGAR-JONES With their brown eyes and brunette bangs, Normal People’s Daisy, 27, is often mistaken for Anne, 42. ‘A lot of people say I’m the lovechild of Anne and Dakota [Johnson], which I’ll take,’ she said.
