BELOVED TV star Doris Roberts died bitter and alone — because she never got the recognition she deserved and thought men were jealous of her success! The “Everybody Loves Raymond” mom, who passed away in an L.A. hospital on April 17, said “the guys in her life didn’t want her to be a star,” says an insider. “She believed they were all jealous of her wealth and fame. She got her revenge by amassing a fortune.” But it cost her. “She lived all alone for over 30 years — and that’s how she died,” adds the pal. Doris divorced first husband Michael Cannata, the father of her only child, Michael, now 59, in 1962. “He wouldn’t grow up and take on responsibilities!” she said. Second husband William Given died in…

AN on-the-lam, namedropping ex-con who police say scammed marks by claiming he could beat the house in Las Vegas has finally crapped out! Accused con man Mark Georgantas was nailed by cops — in a cafe called Mr. Lucky’s, just outside the Hard Rock Cafe casino — after three months running from cops, say lawmen. Prosecutors indicted Georgantas in January, for bilking investors out of $350,000 after promising he could beat casino games with a special system. He even mentioned that George Clooney and Matt Damon, stars of the casinoheist film “Ocean’s Eleven,” were clients, and claimed he had worked for the CIA, say sources. The suspect bragged he could win handily at baccarat, blackjack, craps and roulette before mentioning he was producing a documentary about his system. Georgantas then…

AT 90 years old, she’s Britain’s oldT oldest-ever monarch — and longestreigning — but Elizabeth was never meant to be Queen! “There were two relatively young men in the line of succession ahead of her,” says a source. “But fate stepped in to change her life — and now she has a record that will never be beaten.” Born on April 21, 1926, Her Majesty was just 10 when her shy father was forced to become King George VI after his brother Edward VIII abdicated to marry scandalous American divorcée Wallis Simpson. When George, 56, died suddenly in 1952, Elizabeth was thrust into the royal role she never expected — at just 25! She wed her third cousin Prince Philip in 1947 and was already the mother of Prince Charles,…

TV CHAT stars Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan — who just quit his gig on the “Live! With Kelly and Michael” show without telling her — have been locked in a secret bitter feud from the start. Sources say Kelly never wanted to team with former New York Giants football star Michael, but show bigwigs insisted on hiring him to replace Regis Philbin in 2012. “She constantly lobbied ABC and producers to get one of her buddies, Anderson Cooper or, better yet, Neil Patrick Harris, as her cohost,” a spy tells GLOBE. “But the brass wanted either Josh Groban, Seth Meyers or Strahan. And Strahan won out.” Meanwhile, Michael, who’s leaving “Live” to join ABC’s “Good Morning America” in September, has always thought Kelly’s a diva, insiders say. He poured…

But the actress is still starry-eyed for her ex — even though he was caught up in a scandal with their kids’ 28-yearold nanny! “After all the heartbreak, Jen still yearns to be in Ben’s arms. She still loves him, and she missed their steamy sex life terribly,” says the source, calling their relationship an “exes with benefits” deal. The insider insists, “Her…

The 37-year-old blonde, who played Dr. Izzy Stevens on ABC’s hit medical drama from 2005 to 2010, says she finally managed to quit puffing, but got hooked again when movie bigwigs insisted she smoke for the 2007 comedy “Knocked Up.” Later, she became moody when she tried quitting.

In a move to keep secret upcoming surprises and twists — like who gets killed off next — HBO honchos decided not to send out advance episodes of the hit show’s sixth season to the media or showbiz insiders.

She didn’t take her husband’s name, Mountbatten, after her mother and Prime Minister Winston Churchill fought against it! Elizabeth has done her own fighting! In 1954, during one of her 16 visits to Australia, she was filmed throwing shoes, threats and sporting equipment at Prince Philip after an argument! She later said, “I’m sorry for that little interlude but it happens in every marriage!” The newlyweds were given over 1,300 gifts, including 100 pairs of nylon stockings, a racehorse and a newfangled electric food mixer none of their cooks knew how to use. Some gifts are still stored unused in an air-conditioned building. One of her biggest triumphs is beating Queen Victoria’s record 63-year reign. She’s also the first British monarch to ever celebrate 60 years of marriage. It will…

Medical news YOU can use! NEW SHOT HELPS PANCREAS GROW SCIENTISTS are on the verge of an incredible breakthrough that could fight the ravages of type 1 diabetes — including deadly kidney disease — with a simple injection! Clinical tests on diabetics have been given the green light, and British scientists are hopeful their treatment, called MultiPepT1De, will be a lifesaving miracle. By injecting protein fragments every six months, researchers hope to stimulate patients’ damaged immune systems and grow insulinproducing pancreatic cells, which will help control blood sugar. While type 1 diabetics would still have to take insulin, their chance of fighting the deadly disease will grow dramatically because the treatment should prevent destruction of the pancreas. This will slash the risk of blindness and kidney disease caused by high…

RECOVERING addict Diana Ross is crippled by pain after a shocking car crash — and now pals fear her injuries could trigger a new battle with drugs! The star, 72, complained of neck, back and head injuries after an SUV driver ran a stop sign and plowed into her limo in Bethlehem, Pa. “Diana was treated at the scene by paramedics, but said that she would seek further medical help on her own — suggesting that she was in agony,” a source says. Close pals worry the postcrash pain could lead to Diana taking potentially addictive painkillers. They fear the songbird, who’s been linked to drug use and checked into a drug and alcohol treatment center in 2002, might suffer a relapse. After the crash, which occurred as Diana was…

THE most famous line in the hit ’60s series “Lost in Space” was the urgent warning delivered by the show’s beloved Robot. That “danger” alert to young Bill Mumy, who played Will in the show about a family marooned in space, remains one of the most well-known phrases in TV history. In this shot from 1967, Will returns the favor, protecting his mechanical pal from the show’s bad guy, Dr. Zachary Smith, played by Jonathan Harris. Two actors made Robot work — Bob May was inside the metallic suit while show announcer Dick Tufeld uttered the “danger” lines — but neither man ever landed a bigger role.…
