Gap-toothed future king celebrates 6th birthday BRITAIN has gone gaga over newly released birthday photos of their future king — little Prince George — as he giggled and showed off a gap-toothed grin on his sixth birthday on July 22. The cutie is third in line to the throne, behind grandpa Prince Charles, 70, and dad William, but he’s first in line as far as great-grandma Queen Elizabeth is concerned. While the queen adores his sister, Charlotte, 4, and year-old baby bro, Louis, the 93-year-old monarch’s got a special soft spot for George, who calls her Gan-Gan. “She goes out of her way to spend time with him and makes sure she leaves little gifts when he stays over at Buckingham Palace,” dishes a source. George is also a momma’s…

SCREEN siren Sharon Stone reveals she was treated like a Hollywood outcast following a devastating stroke that left her at death’s door! The now 61-year-old stunner was on top of her game after the classic 1992 thriller Basic Instinct, but in September 2001 she was rushed to the hospital after collapsing at home. “I had a massive stroke and a nine-day bleed” in the brain, recalls Stone, whose mom and grandmother also suffered strokes. Afterward, she says she was treated like a leper. She lost a custody battle for adopted son Roan to ex-hubby and newspaper bigwig Phil Bronstein in 2004 and her career nosedived. “I had to re-mortgage my house. I lost everything I had,” she says. “I lost my place in the business. I was like the hottest…

TINSELTOWN gunslinger Kevin Costner has saddled up again for a new season of the modern-day TV Western Yellowstone, continuing to play the patriarch of a rancher family fighting for their legacy and land. Here are ten things you don’t about the 64-year-old Dances with Wolves star. 1 Kevin says seeing 1962’s How the West Was Won at age seven “formed” his childhood. 2 He was five-foot-two in high school — nearly a foot shy of his eventual height. 3 He earned a BA in marketing and finance from California State University Fullerton — but his first marketing gig only lasted 30 days. 4 When he married first wife Cindy Silva in 1978, she was working at Disneyland as Cinderella. 5 On a flight back from their honeymoon in Mexico, he…

ON THE 50th anniversary of his death, Rolling Stones founder Brian Jones’ daughter Barbara Marion charges he was murdered — and she wants justice! “I want police to reopen this,” says the Chicago hypnotherapist, 50, who was born just before his death after her model mom had a fling with the blond haired guitarist. On July 3, 1969, Brian, 27, was found at the bottom of his swimming pool — a death a local coroner ruled an accidental drowning. A druggie and boozer, Brian, who began the Stones with Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, had been booted from the group a few weeks earlier. According to a 1969 news report, the hard-partying asthma sufferer was taking a dip with his 22-year-old galpal, Swedish dancer Anna Wohlin. She then went into…

DEBILITATED country queen Loretta Lynn is facing a daunting new health crisis — she’s going blind! The 87-year-old legend was diagnosed with eyesight-robbing glaucoma in 2009 that’s damaged her optic nerve, sources tell GLOBE. “Loretta gets regular injections to ease fluid buildup on the eyeball, but there’s no repairing the nerve damage. She’s been losing her eyesight bit by bit for years,” reveals a friend. “She’s at the point now where she has very little peripheral vision. “That’s a big concern, since she’s already broken ribs and her shoulder in falls. With her not being able to see, you fear another fall could do her in.” The glaucoma has also increased the severity of the migraine headaches that Loretta has long suffered, adds a pal. “The pain is almost unbearable,”…

KATHIE LEE GIFFORD has a lot of faith — that her next big career move will be to spread the word of God on TV! The deeply religious longtime morning-show queen, who in April stepped down from her 11-year Today gabfest with Hoda Kotb, has expressed her hope to be the next great TV preacher, sources claim. “Even as she was saying goodbye to the Today staff, she was preaching about the Lord and her dedication to him,” an insider exclusively snitched. The 65-year-old former “Live with Regis and Kathie Lee” co-host — who was born Kathryn Lee Epstein and says she was “raised with many Jewish traditions” — became a born-again Christian at age 12 and later attended televangelist Oral Roberts’ namesake university. During her long career, Kathie Lee…

QUEEN ELIZABETH and son Prince Charles pack a gruesome item in their luggage before every trip, whether it’s a holiday or an official visit: a fresh refill of their blood. The royal red stuff is watched over by a navy doc to make sure it’s ready to go in case Her Highness or her heir, the Prince of Wales, suffers a sudden medical emergency. And now that the queen is no spring chicken at 93, and her oldest boy is a grandpa aged 70, chances of a health problem are increased. While it sounds ghoulish, “it makes perfect sense. They’ll be able to receive blood transfusions even if they’re in an area where there may not be a reliable supply,” notes a source.…

The 46-year-old Shakespeare in Love Oscar winner has been spotted chatting to a wedding band that belonged to the late St. Elsewhere producer, and she insists it channels her dad’s spirit. “I ask it questions.

I still speak to him, and I still love him.” Now ditzy Gwyn, who admits she only sleeps with new hubby Brad Falchuk four nights a week on the advice of a lifestyle guru, is promoting psychic Susan Grau’s chats with…

TROUBLED model-actress Ireland Baldwin has something to get off her chest: She’s been devouring the bread basket at the Cheesecake Factory — and claims it’s increasing her cup size! “Been eating a lot of brown bread at cheesecake factory and it’s going to my boobs,” tittered Alec Baldwin’s 23-year-old daughter in a provocative Instagram post. No word yet from the eatery on whether the rising yeast in the dough of its trademark bread is responsible for expanding Ireland’s profile.…

ACCLAIMED director ORSON WELLES was also handy as an actor, as demonstrated in 1949’s The Third Man, where he played Harry Lime, a shadowy figure mixed up in spy-filled post-World War II Vienna. Handy, but also a bit of a diva, with the assistant director later describing the Citizen Kane kingpin as having “generally annoyed everyone on the set.” Among his transgressions: balking at doing the movie’s famed sewer scenes in actual sewers! Instead, he insisted on having fake ones built in a studio! He also absented himself several times during shooting, forcing the director to use a body double in order to complete the film on time.…

HEARTSICK Prince Charles penned a letter to the love of his life, Camilla, begging her not to wed his polo-playing pal Andrew Parker Bowles but the blonde ignored his plea and broke the royal’s heart. While serving in Britain’s navy, the Prince of Wales constantly corresponded with Camilla — who is said to have taken his virginity — and his frantic letter reached her a week before the sultry 26-year-old tied the knot with blueblooded Parker Bowles in 1973. While the queen and other royals opposed Camilla as a match, Charles wrote his ex-love he “couldn’t think of anyone he’d rather spend his life with,” says a source who read the letter. “He begged her not to go through with the wedding.” A palace insider says, “Camilla’s mother, Rosalind Shand,…

THE View’s Meghan McCain was hiding a heartbreaking secret while she promoted the morning chat fest — she was pregnant but her “body told her” the baby was doomed. The 34-year-old conservative and daughter of the late Republican U.S. senator from Arizona, John McCain, says she miscarried her child with political pundit hubby Ben Domenech, 37. “I look back at those pictures now, and I see a woman hiding her shock and sorrow,” says Meghan. “I am posed for the camera, looking stern and strong, representing my fellow conservative women across the country. “But inside, I am dying. Inside, my baby is dying.” The heartbroken star says she instinctively knew “I was miscarrying. The confirmation from my doctor came the day of a photo shoot, at the worst possible time.”…

BEATLE PAUL’S SECRET BROADWAY MUSICAL PAUL McCARTNEY has been working on a musical version of JIMMY STEWART’s 1946 Christmas classic, It’s a Wonderful Life, and has completed 10 new songs for the show. “Writing a musical isn’t something that had ever really appealed to me,” says the former Beatle, 77. “But I found myself thinking this could be interesting and fun. [The movie] is a universal story we can all relate to.” Insiders say Sir Paul aims to stage the production in late 2020, first in the U.K. before exporting it to Broadway.

“IFEAR he killed JonBenet Ramsey!” That’s the chilling claim of the woman who introduced photographer Randall DeWitt Simons — who’s been busted on kiddie porn charges — to the Ramsey family! “I am begging the police to look again at this man!” says pageant seamstress Pamela Griffin, 72. Simons, 66, now sits in an Oregon jail after being charged on July 2 with 15 counts of child pornography. He was well-known as JonBenet’s shutterbug — and as GLOBE has reported, he’s bounced in and out of cops’ crosshairs during their investigation of the six-year-old beauty queen’s still-unsolved murder. Now, in a blockbuster twist, Griffin says Simons confessed during a phone call that he had no alibi for the day before JonBenet’s body was found at her family’s Boulder, Colo., home…

HUBBA, hubba! Alex Rodriguez just got an ample eyeful of female flesh — and fiancée Jennifer Lopez isn’t mad about it. That’s because J.Lo dragged her main man to a strip club so she could research her role as a pole dancer! “She and A-Rod went and visited a strip club, and she was able to give me some … insights,” tattles Lorene Scafaria, writer-director of J.Lo’s flick Hustlers. The movie follows former strip club employees who turn the tables on their Wall Street clients — and 50-year-old J.Lo worked overtime to get in shape for her role. “She’s obviously such an unbelievable dancer, but she trained so hard-core for this!” Scafaria says. “Pole dancing is not like anything else. It required muscles you don’t know you have. So we…

BIOLOGICAL changes related to menopause have long borne the blame for lowering the libido of older ladies, but a new study has found that what’s going on in their heads is also key. Researchers from the United Kingdom discovered that body image and relationship problems directly impact the sex drive of mature females. Partner factors play a particularly “prominent role in women’s sexual activity and satisfaction,” explains Dr. Stephanie Faubion of the North American Menopause Society, which published the report. These include “the lack of a partner, sexual dysfunction of a partner, poor physical health of a partner and relationship issues.” In addition, according to the study, a frequently cited reason for decreased sexual activity among study subjects was the belief that aging made them unattractive.…
