He was once one of the most popular members of the royal family, with strong bonds with his father and brother and a tight-knit bunch of close friends. But today, Prince Harry – who left the UK for California with his wife Meghan Markle four years ago – is worlds away from his former self – something an old friend shone a light on last week in an interview. Revealing how he believed Harry had become 'an angry boy' who is seemingly too stubborn to make amends, the friend added that things were so bad between him and his older brother, that the latter probably wouldn't even invite Harry to his eventual coronation, lamenting, 'They are estranged, which is dreadfully sad.' MISERABLE On top of that, fans and royal watchers…

Fans have witnessed heated rows between the Kardashians in the past and it seems another feud is about to explode as Khloe and Kim are locked in a fight for the same man: Hollywood hunk Michael B Jordan. Speaking exclusively to Closer, our insider reveals, 'Kim and Khloe have always thought that Michael's a total hottie and both have admitted they've had eyes on him since he split from his girlfriend, Lori [Harvey] two years ago. 'Kim hung out with him at a Lakers game a few months after his break-up and they swapped numbers then, but it wasn't until earlier this year that their conversations got flirtier. At first she kept it quiet from the rest of the family. But then Khloe – who befriended Michael when she hired…

She recently lapped up the sun on a lavish summer holiday, sharing content from the break with her six million Instagram followers – but Stacey Solomon wasn't prepared for the backlash it caused. The TV star, 34, jetted off to Turkey's luxurious Regnum Carya hotel with husband Joe Swash and their blended brood. Sharing pictures of her holiday, Stacey, 34, appeared to be having the time of her life – looking especially loved-up with Joe, 42. However, her posts quickly drew criticism from some of the mum-of-five's followers. As a backlash gathered pace, one fan wrote, '£27,000 a week for a family of six though. [I'd] never be able to afford that,' and another agreed, 'That's more than my annual salary.' After returning back to the UK, Stacey tagged the…

And now, insiders say that amid the turmoil in her personal life, social media star Molly, 25, has been leaning on a surprising celeb pal, Peter Andre. A source tells Closer, 'As soon as Pete heard the news and saw the cheating claims emerge, he reached out to Molly to offer his support and guidance – knowing only too well how stressful it is having a break-up play out in public having gone through the same during his split from Katie Price 15 years ago.

Rumours have long swirled that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck were on the rocks, just two years after walking down the aisle and, last week, it was confirmed the A-List couple are indeed calling it quits. According to court documents, J-Lo, 55, filed for divorce from Gone Girl actor Ben, 52, last Tuesday – the exact day the couple would have celebrated their second wedding anniversary, marking their second wedding in Georgia after eloping in Vegas. It was also reported that the couple did not have a prenup in place – meaning they are now faced with dividing their joint £490 million net worth. The pair – lovingly dubbed Bennifer by fans – tied the knot in 2022, after rekindling their romance almost two decades after calling off their initial…

When Lauren McLeod first found out she was pregnant with son, Bowie, she knew she'd do whatever it took for her child to be happy and healthy. And that included breastfeeding him until he was six years old, much to to the horror of some trolls. Lauren, 31, has been labelled as 'sick' and an 'abuser' by strangers, but ignores the hate. She also has a daughter, Tigerlily, four, and says she will continue to feed her for as long as she wants, just like she did with Bowie, now seven. She says, 'I've been very fortunate to have had a relatively smooth breastfeeding journey with minimal issues along the way, and the benefits outweigh any tough times we may come across.

How much do you spend? Around £75, since our son left home our bills have gone down so much. I like a mooch in any store I'm passing, but if I've got time I like to go the butcher's. Describe your daily diet… If I'm at Corrie, my go-to is poached eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms and a slice of bacon. If I'm at home, I'll have sourdough toast with avocado or a poached egg, and if there's nothing in, then it's two Weetabix with kefir and flaxseeds. For lunch, I enjoy making homemade houmous, and have that with carrot sticks, red grapefruit and oatcakes, it's a weird combination! Or, tinned sardines with chickpea salad, and I use the oil in the tin as a dressing. For dinner, I like stir fries…
