Family day out Geri Halliwell put on a public display of unity with husband Christian Horner at the British Grand Prix. The Spice Girl, 51, was supported by daughter Bluebell, 18, son Monty, seven, and stepdaughter Olivia, 11, at Silverstone, four months after the Red Bull team boss was cleared of “coercive behaviour”. Whose tat? Matt Willis has honoured his wife Emma Willis with a new tattoo for their 16th wedding anniversary – but his latest inking has left fans baffled. “Looks nothing like Emma,” one said, with another quipping that it looks more like Victoria Beckham! Strictly comeback Aljaz Skorjanec is returning to Strictly! The beloved dancer, 34, will make a special appearance for the show’s 20th anniversary this autumn, after leaving in 2022. “Can’t wait to be back…

Growing up, I never had a problem with my weight. But when I moved to Hull with my partner Matt, I began to feel bored and isolated without my family and friends close by. To try and soothe my loneliness, I started comfort eating. Most days, I’d skip breakfast and have a baguette and crisps for lunch at my office job. Throughout the day, I’d snack on pastries, sweets and chocolate before having a Chinese takeaway in the evening. I’d always finish off with a family-size Galaxy bar. By the time Matt and I moved back to my hometown in East Yorkshire three years later, I’d piled on 10st, going from a size 10 to a size 26. I was so ashamed about my size that I rarely left the…

better health Gut health is a trending topic in the UK and affects more than just your digestion. The gut refers to your gastrointestinal system, the route that food and drink takes when going through the body. How healthy it is can significantly impact your mood, physical wellbeing, your immune system, and chronic conditions. One such chronic digestive disorder is coeliac disease. For those living with this autoimmune condition, eating foods that contain gluten will damage the small intestine. Gluten can be found in almost everything, from pasta and bread to cereal and pizza. But where it may once have felt gluten was impossible to avoid, there are now countless, tasty gluten-free options available in supermarkets and restaurants. Half a million people in the UK have undiagnosed coeliac disease If…

Myleene Klass Sporting a suit from her own collection with Next, Myleene embraced Wimbledon whites with a waistcoat and trouser duo. She finished the look with oversize shades and a Panama hat. Kim Cattrall The actor kept it sleek with a pretty pastel pink suit and a playful printed blouse. Kim left the bow of the collar undone to add a statement edge to the outfit. Maria Sharapova Tennis star Maria opted for a utility-inspired outfit to show her support at the championships. The khaki hue of her suit matches beautifully with her tartan-print bag. Alison Hammond This Morning presenter Alison chose to wear a timeless monochrome polka-dot shirt dress. The waist belt helps to cinch the outfit and highlight her natural silhouette. Rebel Wilson Comedian Rebel gave florals a…

For Holly Willoughby, the last 18 months have been nothing short of hellish. The presenter’s traumatic spell started with her widely reported public falling out with This Morning co-host Phillip Schofield, which culminated in his scandalfuelled exit from the show after admitting to lying about an “unwise but not illegal ” affair with a younger male colleague. And things reached a head earlier this month for Holly, 43 as her stalker, security guard Gavin Plumb, 37, was convicted of a plot to kidnap, rape and murder. While Plumb’s sentencing on 12 July will bring an end to the proceedings, the gruesome revelations about his plans were revealed in court, and were difficult for fans to hear. Last October, she quit This Morning “for me and my family”, and has since recorded…

No Mel Fallowfield, 51, journalist 'Millions of people can't just down tools at a set time' When Keir was dubbed the “part-time PM”, I agreed with the criticism. There are many jobs you can choose to do if you want to be able to switch off at a certain time – but leading our nation isn’t one of them. He’s not alone; millions of people can’t just down tools at a set time. They have to put up with erratic shift patterns and anti-social hours. Imagine a doctor looking at his watch mid-operation and saying, “Time for me to go now, I don’t work beyond 6pm,” or a nurse downing tools in the middle of changing a dressing. I want my Prime Minister to be primed and ready for action…

Energising breakfasts “I love to recycle and use old glass jars, so I’ll have porridge with some nuts, a teaspoon of peanut butter and just healthy stuff like fruit. I’ll have that or three eggs and a nice salad. I like to have coffee – really plain, just coffee – when I need the energy. But usually I prefer a simple tea. Either green tea or peppermint.” Fresh produce “Eating healthily has always been super important for me and I’m passionate about ensuring the fruit and veg I eat are as fresh and nutritious as possible. As someone who is very active in my day-to-day life, making sure my diet is full of fruit and vegetables is key to leading a healthy lifestyle – my fridge is always packed with…

Why go? The ruggedly beautiful Aran Islands are the perfect Irish escape, and this year marks the 10th anniversary of the Wild Atlantic Way, an idyllic 1,600mile coastal road, so there’s no better time to explore some of the route’s isles. Inis Mór, the largest of the three Aran Islands, has 800 inhabitants and showstopping scenery. While Inishbofin, home to just 180 people and lying 69km from the Aran Islands, is also a gem. It has sandy beaches, rolling hills, and panoramic views. But there’s more to the islands than their natural beauty. History buffs will adore Inis Mór’s array of ancient sites, such as the prehistoric clifftop hill fort, Dún Aonghasa. In Inishbofin, explore the 17th century Cromwellian fortress, a symbol of the island’s resilience over adversity. Wildlife lovers…

Dear Jo, My life was forever shattered the day I lost you. We became friends at just six years old, but then our families moved towns and we couldn’t see each other. When I was 14, I started at a new secondary school and it just so happened you were in one of my classes. You were a beautiful blonde and I was instantly attracted to you, and when we got to know each other, our chemistry was instant. We realised we were born on the same day, just eight hours apart and in the same hospital! It felt like fate that we met and we fell in love quickly. Your dad was my social studies teacher and, after only dating for a few weeks, I told him I was…

TV WEEK Sarah Parish had a real transformation to take on the character Superintendent Julie Spry in comedy series Piglets, which is set in a fictional police training college. Along with Superintendent Bob Weekes (Mark Heap) they will be putting six would-be cops through their paces, with hilarious results. And Sarah, 56, was absolutely on board with her glow down! How did you get involved with Piglets? I read the scripts and they were just so funny and silly, the show was exactly my sense of humour. It had that absurd, Airplane-style humour and I loved it. I’ve never really done anything like this before. Some people won’t recognise you as Julie – it’s quite the transformation! I definitely knew as soon as I read the script that Julie would…
