CELEB NEWS & GOSSIP They have never been the best of friends, but the relationship between King Charles and younger brother Prince Andrew could become more strained following reports that the monarch wants to rent out Royal Lodge. It's thought that the 75-year-old King is looking to make some money from the 30-room mansion, which he could let for an estimated £1million. However, Andrew is said to be refusing to leave his home, which he shares with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson. The Duke of York, 64, has turned down other royal residences that he has been offered and is thought to be relying on his “cast-iron lease”, which includes a proviso that the £30million property in Windsor Great Park is kept in good order. “It makes sense for Royal Lodge to…

She's said to have been left devastated after Eamonn Holmes was linked to a number of women following their shock marriage split in May. But now, Bella can reveal that Ruth Langsford is becoming open to the idea of finding love again, with pals encouraging the Loose Women star to get back out there. It's thought that Eamonn, who has moved out of their Surrey home into a rented flat in south-west London, has been leaning on three different female companions who have been supporting him through the divorce. While there's nothing to suggest they are anything other than friends, the names include relationship counsellor Katie Alexander, facialist Lisa Harris and podcaster Hayley Sparkes. According to The Sun, Katie is believed to have been staying with Eamonn in his apartment…

real life AFTER 13st 10lbs size 14 BEFORE 21st size 22-24 As a teenager, I never really struggled with my weight. I was a size 10 to 12 and could eat whatever I wanted without having to worry about it. Then, when I was 17, my mum died quite suddenly which had a huge impact on me. I ended up meeting my now husband, Simon, a few months later and within a year, we had our first baby, Teagon, now 29, and Sadie, now 27, came along soon after. They became my rocks but the loss I felt without Mum around never left me and I would emotionally eat. This became worse when I had our third child, Callum, now 26, in 1998. We always knew Callum was different. He…

Me Too? Q I recently told my boyfriend something that I've never told anyone. When I was 17, I met a guy at a party. He was quite a bit older, around 24. I couldn't believe he was interested in me. I was from a small town and was quite young for my age. As the party began to wind down, he asked me to go back to his place. He told me we didn't have to do anything; he just didn't want to say goodbye yet. I was flattered. I felt like I was in a romantic film. When we got there, we started kissing. I really enjoyed this bit, but then things went further. I was scared to say “no”. I didn't know how he would react, and…

Gabby Logan threatened to move out of the family home after having an “absolute meltdown” during the menopause. The sports presenter, 51, realised she was perimenopausal in 2020 after she told husband Kenny, 52, and their 18-year-old twins Reuben and Lois of her plans. “I launched into this off-the-cuff, ‘I'm going to get myself a flat and move out and let you all just get on with it,’” she said. “That was probably my lowest point, my mini-crisis. It was the time when I was feeling, ‘this is not me.’” Gabby, who found help with HRT, added, “I wasn't prepared for feeling so unenthused, anxious, snappier and short-tempered.”…

Stacey Solomon has been open about how having six children – three of whom are aged five and under – between her and husband Joe Swash, means that family life can be pretty hectic at Pickle Cottage. And according to the couple's recent comments on Celebrity Googlebox, that madness doesn't end at bedtime, and the pair often end up sleeping in separate beds. While watching an episode of The Nevermets, Joe, 42, jokingly admitted to relating to the long-distance couples, saying, “We used to have pillow talk didn't we?” to which Stacey, 34, responded, “We used to sleep in bed together, do you remember that? Before we had three kids in four years!” Joe then imitated Stacey and said, “I'll go in Rex's bed with the baby, all right?” to…

Kimberley Walsh is one busy lady. The star has been back on tour with her Girls Aloud bandmates recently, and loving every minute of it. Especially as she was able to bring her kids along for the ride – something she tells us actually helped with the nerves of performing. Before now, Girls Aloud had been on a break – but Kimberley, 42, certainly didn't slow down. In fact, she took on roles in West End musicals, has been a regular on our TV screens both acting (in Ackley Bridge and The Lodge) and presenting (on Morning Live). She also welcomed her three boys – Bobby, nine, Cole, seven, and Nate, three – with husband of eight years, Justin Scott. Then, last month, Kimberley and her fellow bandmates Cheryl, 41,…

Sitting in the pub with my friend Ian in 1989, I noticed he wasn't his usual self. “What's up?” I asked. “I can't get married,” he sighed. “I've got feelings for you.” Truthfully, I wasn't shocked. Ian and I had met at the bakery where we worked. He showed me the ropes and I fancied him immediately. However, I knew he was engaged so I kept my feelings to myself. But clearly, the feeling was actually mutual… I was cautious, so I knew we needed to keep our distance. “Well don't for one minute think you'll leave her and we'll get together,” I sternly said. “Let's spend some time apart and see how we feel.” A month passed and I found out Ian had called off his engagement. Three months…
