She’s been happily loved-up for over a year – getting engaged last December and now busily wedding planning. But Gemma Collins has been left devastated after an accident that could leave her fiancé, car repair boss Rami Hawash, blind in one eye. Sharing a picture of Rami, 46, wearing an eye patch, Gemma, 41, told her 2.2m Instagram followers, “Rami had a very serious accident on his eye and nose at work – he needs an operation.” In an interview last week, the former TOWIE star said, “He’s really shaken up – he’s been in excruciating pain as he had his operation last week. We hope that he’s going to get the sight back in his eye, but I did reassure him that, if he went blind or if he…

Former WAG Lizzie Cundy, 54, who was married to ex-Chelsea footballer Jason Cundy for 18 years, knows both Coleen and Rebekah. She says, “Family is everything to Coleen, and when all this is over, she’ll want to spend some quality time with them. Wayne has been her tower of strength throughout it all and it’s made them stronger. They’ve been through a lot and had many ups and downs. She’s been there for him throughout his football career – now it’s Wayne’s turn to be there for her. But they need a long rest from all of this, as it’s been so stressful and draining. They will have some time away from the spotlight and concentrate on what really does matter. “Even if Becky wins on a technicality, Coleen can…

They’ve had a frosty relationship over the years – with Victoria Beckham and Mel B dubbed Spice Girl “frenemies” amid their long-running feud. But last week, Mel, 46, revealed that they have let bygones be bygones after thanking her “sister”, aka Posh, 48, for designing the red frock she wore as she received her MBE at Buckingham Palace. Paying tribute to her former bandmate-turned-fashion designer on Instagram, the mum-of-three, aka Scary Spice, said, “My Spice sister Vic, I can’t thank you enough. Not only did you dress me and my mum, but you surprised me by actually being there to fit us.” MAGICAL Sharing a snap of the pair hugging after the ceremony with her 1.5m followers, she added, “Honestly what a perfect ending to a magical day you booked…

Fans mistook her bridal-inspired BAFTA frock for a secret wedding reveal last week as Stacey Solomon teased fans with snaps of her wearing a pearl-encrusted white gown alongside her dapper fiancé, Joe Swash, in the stunning grounds of their home, Pickle Cottage. SURPRISE Commenting on the mum-of-four’s Instagram post – in which Joe, 40, wore a tuxedo as he lovingly gazed at his brideto-be – one fan wrote, “At first glance I thought you’d had a secret wedding!” Another added, “OMG I thought you were making a surprise announcement!” And while the Loose Women presenter, 32, told fans she was heading to the awards ceremony – in which her BBC1 show Sort Your Life Out was nominated – pals say that mounting pressure over her upcoming July nuptials has sparked…

Emma Campbell, 38, was diagnosed with bowel cancer in February 2020. She lives with her husband Kari, 37, and their three children, Jensen, nine, Finlay, six, and Krista, two, in Newcastle. She says, “My first symptom was suffering stomach pain during and after pregnancy. At first I thought it was constipation, but I had a niggling feeling that something was wrong. “I paid £39 for a private bowel screening test and the results said I had high blood levels in my stools and should see the GP. “I was sent for tests but I thought my young, healthy lifestyle would protect me. I was in total shock when I was finally diagnosed in February 2020. “I tried to banish negative thoughts and take control of how I handled the diagnosis.…

She’s had her fair share of heartbreak after a string of failed romances with model Calum Best, ex-footballer, Jamie O’Hara and reality star, Kris Boyson. But this time, Bianca Gascoigne is sure she’s found The One and, despite only dating new man Arron Wright for six months, she’s ready for the next step. She says, “We’ll get married. He’s husband material, and I can see us getting engaged soon. Arron is quite traditional, and he has a large family, so it will probably take place here in the UK. Or we’ll have two ceremonies. Maybe an intimate one abroad, and a big ceremony in England so everyone can come. I need a ring first though!” After splitting from Kris following a yearlong relationship in February 2021, Bianca, 35, was single…

We’re all looking for ways to reduce our rocketing weekly food bill and Instagram-famous chef and best-selling author of the One Pound Meals books, Miguel Barclay, is the go-to man for money-saving tips. The budget chef believes the key to saving cash is to plan your meals in advance, make your ingredients go further and avoid unnecessary waste. “If you want to save money, the main thing to remember is to avoid any kind of food that is convenient,” says Miguel who has over 250k social media followers. “Don’t leave meals to the last minute or you may be tempted to order a takeaway or buy a microwave curry. That also means avoiding any chopped vegetables or anything that’s been prepared by a human or a machine, as it will…

About £50-£70. I live with my dad but we buy separately. I order a lot of meals online from a local company called EASYPREP in Darlington.

YOUR GUIDE TO EMOTIONAL ISSUES AND FAMILY LIFE WITH PSYCHOLOGICAL THERAPIST EMMA KENNY The fundamental cause of loneliness is disconnection. When you first met, dated and created a relationship, you will have been drawn to your partner through the happiness of falling in love, sexual attraction and shared interests. You understandably imagined that the things that brought you together would maintain your relationship too, but life is full of stresses, and these additional burdens can mean that you and your partner become isolated from each other. It can be easy to think that your relationship is over, but this is a knee-jerk reaction. Long-term relationships often become so comfortable that you forget to put in the effort. Taking one another for granted means you don’t communicate effectively any more and…

SMALL CHANGES MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE ONCE I’VE DONE THE SCHOOL RUN, I HEAD TO THE GYM… My boys are four and nearly two, so they keep me active. But to boost my energy levels I’ll do an incline jog on the highest level. It really gets you out of breath but you just have to power through. It also helps me focus. I’m rehearsing for Footloose The Musical, which is a relentless show, so I have to give it everything! I’M NOT SOMEONE WHO CAN SIT AROUND FOR LONG… I need to do physical stuff and that’s always helped to keep my mental health in check. Even if it’s going into the studio to record music, I keep busy. IT’S REALLY IMPORTANT TO GET OUTSIDE… We make sure we…

USE A TROPICAL SCALP TREATMENT Ditch the itch with a soothing and cooling scalp mask that uses salicylic acid to gently exfoliate and stimulate hair growth, and pineapple enzymes to reduce irritation and flaking. We massaged it through our damp hair, before shampoo, left it on for 10 minutes and rinsed. Our roots were flake-free once dried. It was like a deep clean - relief!

What brought about your comeback? The shock value! I just thought, “What a great idea!” I loved what the producers were thinking for Sam - the storyline is bold, and I am very much on their wavelength. I would have been mad not to do it and it proved to be everything I hoped it would be, it was joyful. Did it feel like coming home? It did. It was genuinely a really, lovely thing to step into Sam’s shoes again. She’s still very much busy and connected, and I was very happy that she wasn’t being tracked down to a remote corner of some village where she was judging hen competitions! Where do we find Sam? There’s a catastrophic event that suddenly puts her life in jeopardy and has…

In a touching display, Prince William and Kate Middleton were last week pictured hugging members of the public, cooing over babies and sitting cross-legged on the floor with children on their mini-tour around the UK ahead of the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations. The couple travelled to Manchester and Scotland to meet charity workers and the public, with a photo of Prince William hugging an elderly man going viral online with one commenting, “Kate and Will are so sweet! This is how it should be.” Their successful trip came after it emerged that William, 39 – second in line to the throne after Prince Charles – and Kate, 40, are planning to ask to be called by their first names during visits and not their royal titles. “They want to be more…

It’s been one of the most highly anticipated court battles of recent times and, last week, Rebekah Vardy’s libel case against Coleen Rooney – dubbed the “Wagatha Christie” trial – sparked sensational scenes. The climax of their two-and-a-half year legal battle saw the wives of top footballers Wayne Rooney and Jamie Vardy finally come face-to-face following Coleen’s infamous October 2019 sleuth mission, in which she publicly accused Rebekah of leaking stories to the tabloids from her private Instagram account. As a series of bombshells were dropped – with Rebekah, 40, first to take the stand – Coleen, 36, was said to have been furiously writing notes throughout, while husband Wayne looked straight ahead and refused to make eye contact with his wife’s nemesis. ABSENT Though the Rooneys arrived at court…

After two years of a global pandemic that forced people to stay put, many people were left with a longing for adventure. And while homeschooling drove parents to despair, it also showed how some children can learn well outside a classroom. A survey by travel association ABTA found 61 per cent of UK residents intended to go abroad in 2022, but a quick internet search returns hundreds of websites dedicated to making travelling full-time with your family a possibility. Managing director EMEA of Intrepid Travel, Zina Bencheikh, says they’re expecting to see a boom in families taking extended trips to far-flung destinations with remote working allowing much longer breaks. She says, “After such a long period of travel restrictions, we’ve definitely seen an uptake in families wanting to pack their…

In a moving Instagram post, Deborah James, known to her thousands of followers as “Bowelbabe”, wrote that after living with stage-four bowel cancer for over five years, her body could no longer continue. The 40-year-old wrote, “We have tried everything, but my body simply isn’t playing ball. My active care has stopped and I am now moved to hospice at home care, with my incredible family all around me, and the focus is on making sure I’m not in pain and spending time with them.” She added, “I know we have left no stone unturned. But even with all the innovative cancer drugs in the world or some magic new breakthrough, my body just can’t continue any longer.” Her fundraising and work around bowel cancer was honoured last Thursday when…

THE LATEST HOOK-UPS, MAKE-UPS AND BREAK-UPS She was notably absent when hubby Dec Donnelly scooped up the Best Entertainment Show prize at the BAFTAs earlier this month. And just days later, Ali Astall was spotted wearing a baggy hoodie while out running errands around the couple’s home. Although neither Ali, 43, nor Dec, 46, have made any announcements, an onlooker reportedly said she looked as if “she might be pregnant”. The couple, who worked together for years before beginning their romance and marrying in 2015, already share three-year-old daughter, Isla. Dec previously revealed how he hoped to have two children, and had his west London home built with raising a family in mind – years before he had even begun dating former manager, Ali. After welcoming their daughter in 2018,…

Following his violent outburst at the Oscars, which saw him walk on stage and slap comedian Chris Rock, US sources have revealed how Will Smith has been attending therapy sessions. But a source tells Closer how, as well as “trying to wrap his head around what made him snap”, the actor, 53, has been soul-searching over his marriage to Jada Pinkett-Smith, 50. “They’ve spent more time apart since the Oscars,” says the source. “They’ve been kicking the problems in their marriage down the curb and hoping for a miracle, but it hasn’t come. The truth is, Will finds the talk about their unconventional marriage humiliating.” The couple, who share children Jaden, 23, and Willow, 21, together, have been married for 25 years, but have both admitted it’s an “open” marriage.…

Naomi Trott loves to entertain, taking part in awe-inspiring shows that light up the faces of her audience. But the 34-year-old isn’t a singer, dancer or even a magician. She’s a real-life mermaid, diving into aquarium tanks to swim with fish, sting rays and sharks – and she can hold her breath for a staggering four minutes. Naomi, who lives with her husband Benjamin in Bristol, says, “Being a mermaid is my passion. It’s magical seeing the joy my performances bring kids, but it’s hard work too, as I train for at least five hours a week.” Growing up, Naomi was part of a swim club. And, like most little girls, she loved Ariel in the animated film The Little Mermaid – especially as they both had red hair. As…

‘REAL LOVE IS NEVER A WASTE OF TIME’ Sam’s always been open about channelling personal experiences into hits. After dating model and dancer Jonathon Ziezel in 2014, they later revealed they had written the break-up song Good Thing about their split. Relationships with TOWIE’s Charlie King and US actor Brandon Flynn have since followed and Sam says they never regret the experience of love. Chatting to radio host Zane Lowe about hit Palace, they said, “I was thinking of my heart as a palace of rooms and in every single room was a ghost. I wrote it because no matter how many times my heart breaks, real love is never a waste of time.” ‘TALKING LIFTS THE WEIGHT’ Sam came out as non-binary in 2019, and says that, even as…

DRIED OREGANO: This is my number-one ingredient as it has a strong flavour and it lasts forever. Unlike some herbs, the dried version is better than the fresh variety. I honestly believe that if you have any ingredient in the world, soak it in oregano, fry it, add fresh salt and pepper and it will taste fantastic. OLIVE OIL: Always buy the basic, ownbrand version from budget supermarkets as it’s competitively priced. CURRY POWDER: Not only can you make all sorts of curries, it adds a good, strong flavour to lots of basic meals. RICE: It’s the most economical food you can buy and very filling. Fried rice is very popular, just break an egg into your rice and add peas and soy sauce for a hearty dish. MUSHROOMS: I’m…

DR CHRISTIAN GIVES HIS TAKE ON THE HOT HEALTH TOPICS OF THE WEEK I never wear shoes indoors. I was brought up to believe being barefoot is healthier and better for your feet. But recently, there was some discussion around this subject in the media, thanks to some research that threw up some surprising findings. BUGS ARE EVERYWHERE Research that looked at shoe soles found they were contaminated with various things, including E. coli, Listeria, Salmonella and MRSA – but so are handbags, mobile phones and everything else. We live in a dirty world, where pretty much everything we own comes into contact with bacteria; handbags are put on the floor of the train or even the toilet cubicle, people scroll through Instagram while they’re on the loo – and…

At the risk of being dramatic, the question: “Why are you single?” – is possibly the worst thing you can ask me. I know I don’t need to tell you that your marital status is no reflection on who you are as a person and how loveable you are. You could ask a lot of couples, “Why are you married?” And I’m not sure they’d have the answer, either. But having said that, I am still open to advice on how I can date more effectively. Australian dating coach Louanne Ward has devised a non-patronising list of reasons as to why we could be single. First up, she reckons we shouldn’t sacrifice our standards, but we can “expand our parameters” so let’s edit our checklist for matches and perhaps streamline…

MAXIMISE SUIT TAILORING I feel very confident in a suit. They can carry you from any daytime event through to the evening. I also wear the trousers with T-shirts on separate occasions - I like to make the most of outfits. When I buy clothes, I think about how I can mix and match with pieces in my wardrobe. Life’s changed since having two children under three [Christine has Patricia, three, and Freddie, one, with husband Frank Lampard] so speed comes into play daily. Tailoring instantly looks chic and you can do it with a heel or relax it with a trainer. GET HER LOOK FLATTER WITH A HALTERNECK I love a halterneck. It can be flattering no matter what your body shape is. Sometimes you don’t feel like getting…

It’s been over a decade since they went from best pals to frenemies when Simon Cowell famously sacked Cheryl from the US version of The X Factor via text in what he reportedly cited as “the worst mistake” he’s ever made. And while the former X Factor co-judges have tentatively mended their relationship in recent years, insiders say Simon, 62, is keen to restore the closeness they once had by extending an olive branch and inviting the singer, 38, to his upcoming wedding to Lauren Silverman, 44. FALLOUT A source says, “Despite Simon and Cheryl being back on good terms, they’ve never really been the same and that’s something that eats away at him. “He misses Cheryl and that connection they had before their fallout, so he’s hoping that by…

● PETER ANDRE’S MANHOOD Coleen’s lawyer accused Rebekah of not respecting the privacy of others – drawing attention to a 2004 interview where she’d referred to ex-lover Peter Andre’s manhood as the size of a “chipolata”. Rebekah expressed regret and claimed she was forced by her ex-husband to speak about the one-night-stand – with Pete taking to Instagram last week to talk about his hurt at his personal life being dragged into the drama. ● REBEKAH’S ROW WITH SARAH HARDING Rebekah is said to have come to blows with Sarah Harding at the 2018 National Television Awards after she accused Becky of taking sneaky photos of her with her phone after the Girls Aloud singer, who died last year following a battle with breast cancer, dropped her bag and was…

Social worker Sarah Joel, 37, and her husband Stephen, 38, have two children, Eilah, eight, and Zac, six. They’re going travelling for 11 months, starting in September. Sarah says, “Prepandemic, we had discussed travelling as a family, but I thought we should wait until the children were older. Then the pandemic happened and, while other families spent time together, I was incredibly busy at work, doing long hours, and I missed out on time with the kids. “Last December, we discussed travelling again and decided to do it. When I spoke to the children’s school, the teachers were supportive and said they’d keep in touch and guide us on the curriculum. Now we’re making plans, buying backpacks, and arranging vaccinations and visas. We’ll start in Italy, then Jordan, China, India,…

• Blood in your poo is one of the key signs of cancer. It’s possible the blood could come from swollen blood vessels or piles, but it’s better to get it checked out to be sure. • Obvious, persistent and unexplained changes to your bowel habits. You might notice you need to go to the toilet more often, that you have looser stools, or you’re not emptying your bowels enough. • Unexplained weight loss – you may not feel like eating, feel sick or bloated. • Extreme tiredness for no reason. Bowel cancer causes bleeding that can cause a lack of iron – you may also look pale. • A lump and or pain in your stomach or back passage. • For more information, visit bowelcanceruk.org.uk…

Nicola Robinson, 36, lives in Northampton. She says, “I met Jamie Robinson, 32, in September 2013 through mutual friends on a night out. He was a tattoo artist and we got chatting about his unusual inkings. Jamie was funny and charismatic, and soon, we were an item. Just a month later, we moved in together. “We wanted the same things, and we often talked about a future together. In November 2016 we got married and I felt completely content. But not long into married life, Jamie began staying out late, and despite him telling me he was working long hours at the studio, I felt uneasy. It caused resentment and arguments and I soon realised I wasn’t happy. In July 2021, after nine years together, I told him it was…

He went through a highly publicised break-up last year – and the impact of the split left many fans fearing for his wellbeing. But Rylan Clark is now back to his best – following his divorce from husband of six years, Dan Neal – and is looking for love. The 33-year-old DJ, TV presenter and former reality star was pictured smiling this month in the company of friend Thomas Skinner for The Apprentice star’s stag do in Essex. “Rylan’s had a really tough couple of years,” a source says. “He had to take a couple of months out and basically went to bed for two months. “He was in a dark place following his divorce from Dan. But that’s in the past. He’s in a great place in terms of…

It’s been a year since Safiyya Vorajee and her former partner Ashley Cain lost their beautiful daughter Azaylia to acute myeloid leukaemia at just eight months old. Their little girl’s brave fight for life touched the hearts of millions across the globe, prompting an outpouring of support and raising £1.6 million via a GoFundMe appeal for specialist treatment in Singapore. Tragically, Azaylia’s cancer was too advanced for her to have the pioneering treatment and, despite several gruelling rounds of chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant, she passed away with her parents by her side on 24 April last year. Safiyya reveals she marked the first anniversary of Azaylia’s passing by spending it at her resting place. She tells Closer, “It’s where I feel closer to her and find most comfort.…

For children, stress can manifest itself through changes in behaviour. Common signs include being irritable or moody, withdrawing from activities that they used to enjoy, talking about how worried they are feeling, getting upset about school, crying, and overreacting to situations or incidents that never used to bother them. TUNE IN With teens, stress can lead to emotional withdrawal where they will all but stop communicating with you. They may spend significant amounts of time by themselves, and you may find that they become more combative or hostile. Losing their appetite, struggling to sleep and catastrophising over issues are also commonly related to stress. Little ones and teens can also struggle with stress on a physical level – my son experiences tummy aches and migraines, for example. If this sounds…

IF WE BREAK UP, WHAT WOULD HAPPEN? If a partner freezes your account, it will need both parties to unfreeze it. As a result, you may not be able to access your money. Also, if one party runs up debts within the account, both parties are liable. One account holder cannot close the account, it requires both. Asses all eventualities, their likelihood and how you’ll navigate them. DOES YOUR PARTNER RESPECT THEIR EX? Sure, there may be some valid bad experiences, but their attitude towards their ex can also give insight into how they conduct themselves when a relationship turns sour.

‘As a first-time mum-to-be the decorating process was quite overwhelming…. so I called in The Modern Nursery, a brand with an interior design service, to help. I knew the style and layout I wanted to achieve, but knowing where things should go is a whole different ball game! There are rules, like don’t put the cot too near the radiator, and so many things that you wouldn’t know if you’ve never had a child, so they were great for direction. It’s so different to decorating any other room in a house – you must consider all potential baby hazards.’ “We originally found a wallpaper that we really liked, but because the window is so large in the middle of the wall, none of the sizes worked out. Then we discovered…

NEW SERIES 1 STRANGER THINGS SCI-FI HORROR NEW EPISODES FINALLY LAND FRI 27 MAY, NETFLIX Three years in the making, season four of Netflix’s amazing sci-fi hit is finally upon us… We’re back in Hawkins, with the gang older, wiser and (in the case of Nancy and her mum), sporting impressive poodle perms. Mike and “Dusty Bun” have found themselves some new older dudes to hang about with, making up the “Hellfire Club” (we’re sure we’ll be seeing more of these chaps), while for Lucas it’s all about the basketball – and wanting Max to notice him again… As for Will and Elle (or rather, Jane) – they’re in a new school, dealing with some mean girls, and Elle appears to have lost her powers – nooo! And while this…
