While 2020 will forever be etched into their memory as the year they stepped down from the royal family, 2023 has so far proved to be one of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's most stressful yet. Alongside grappling to save the reputation of their Sussex brand after being dropped from their £18 million Spotify deal after just two years last month, Harry, 38, and Meghan, 41, have also been faced with several reports that their marriage has hit a low. The couple, who marked their fifth wedding anniversary in May, have both been spotted on solo outings this month Meghan at a farmer's market last week and Harry at an Independence Day parade earlier this month. Harry is also reported to be flying to Africa alone in the coming months…

She often gives fans an insight into her idyllic life, filling her Instagram profile with happy memories made at her family home, Pickle Cottage. And now, insiders say that Stacey Solomon is planning a lockdown-inspired summer at home with her family to make up for her recent gruelling work schedule. The mum-of-five – who lives at the £1.2 million Essex property with husband Joe Swash and their children, Zach, 15, Leighton, 11 (from her previous relationships), four-year-old Rex, Rose, 21 months, and newborn Belle, five months – has been juggling work commitments of late, filming for both her flagship show, Sort Your Life Out, and a new Channel 4 show, Brickin’ It. TESTING TIME And a source says that the time away from her family has left Stacey keen to…

Deborah Adams had always been a yo-yo dieter, but her weight began to spiral out of control during her fifth pregnancy. The 50-year-old gained 8st while expecting her son, Cruz. It left her feeling deeply unhappy, but she was determined to lose the weight and feel her best again. And not only did she do it, she now helps others with their weight-loss journeys too. She says, “I honestly feel like a different person. I love encouraging others to shape up – and my new job helps me stay on top of my weight too.” YO-YO DIETS Deborah, who lives in Wallington, Surrey, credits The 1:1 diet by Cambridge Weight Plan for her dramatic weight loss. She says, “I'd tried almost every diet under the sun and always struggled to…

But seven months on from his announcement, Jeff – who is dad to two sons, Bobby, 20, and Freddie, 18, with his late ex-partner, Jade Goody – has confirmed that he and Kate are very much back together. Enjoying a European cruise last week, Jeff, 44, shared a series of photos of himself and PR manager Kate, 33, soaking up the sun and enjoying romantic meals. Enjoying a European cruise last week, Jeff, 44, shared a series of photos of himself and PR manager Kate, 33, soaking up the sun and enjoying romantic meals.

● Be suspicious of requests for money from someone you've never met in person, particularly if you have only recently met online. They may try to pull at your heart strings by saying their safety or health is at risk – but this may just be a tactic. ● Ask friends and family for advice and see if they spot any warning signs. ● Check profile photos by doing a reverse image search (using the search bar of some image search engines) to see if the picture matches elsewhere online. ● Contact your bank immediately if you think you've fallen for a scam, notify Action Fraud and the website/app where you met the scammer. Don't feel embarrassed or ashamed – scams can happen to anyone.…

DON'T FIXATE ON SLEEP While experts advise us to get eight hours of shut-eye each night, both Sam and Pete admit they've suffered difficulties with their sleep, but rather than worrying about how many hours they get, they've learnt to focus on the quality. “My sleep is bad, and my body's become used to getting four hours a night, but I'm absolutely fine with that,” explains Pete. “I'm not a massive sleeper but I never have been, and I think it's about consistency. My sleep isn't broken, and the four hours I get are solid and, most importantly, my body can function the next day. I never set alarms because they interrupt deep sleep, and I prefer to wake up with the natural light. I'm not a napper either, and…

The headlines around this study were very dramatic, but there is truth in what this research has uncovered. In the past, we discovered links between certain jobs and cancers, like bladder cancer in workers in the aniline-dye industry and higher lung cancer rates in asbestos-exposed workers. Those links were very clear-cut, whereas these are far less so – but that doesn't mean we should ignore them completely. DON'T PANIC! In the case of hairdressers, it's the dose of the chemicals like those in hair dye that makes the poison, but hairdressers wouldn't be exposed to such high volumes of chemicals that it would be as hazardous as, say, asbestos. If so, that link would be far clearer already. Also, it's important to remember that this study included 491 women with…

I know I'm showing my age when I type that trends come and go and, well, they come back again too! But I didn't quite realise that in dating, the same rule applies. Apparently a “new” trend called “date stacking” has emerged, which involves people lining up consecutive dates with different matches over the space of a few hours. The idea is that you have a lunch date, happy hour date and dinner date all in the same day. The concept (while it feels like nothing new to an old timer like me) went viral on TikTok earlier this year, and is now gaining momentum. I remember being shocked 15 or so years ago when I heard about the brutality of the New York dating scene, where people would multi-date…

Tina O'Brien, 39, talks to Closer about Sarah's latest predicament. “I think she hoped she'd get away with it (the affair with Damon), but it got out of hand.” On trying to make things up with Adam, she adds, “It doesn't go too well, and it's too soon – too much has happened. As for the baby, she already loves this little, tiny person growing inside her and she desperately wants to have it. When she gets stomach pains, she is very scared.” FOLLOW OUR LIVE TWEETS OVER AT @CloserOnline…

It's been almost two decades since Cheryl became one half of one of showbiz's most famous couples when she, then a member of Girls Aloud, married Chelsea footballer Ashley Cole. Named the next “Posh and Becks”, their marriage came to an abrupt end after four years when Ashley was accused – and later admitted to – cheating several times on Cheryl. MOVED ON She has since described her heartbreak as “torture” and revealed the claims had left her crying hysterically for two months and physically vomiting after reading the reports, which included claims he shared a bottle of wine with one lover before “holding hands” with her after sex. Now, after what would have been their 17th wedding anniversary last week, Ashley, 42, is counting down the weeks until he…

Teaching assistant Emma Smith* still can't quite believe that she's become a criminal. But six months ago, worn down by soaring food prices, she did something she'd previously never imagined doing – the mum of two turned to theft. Since then, she's continued stealing, driven by necessity. Emma, who's 40 and lives with her husband, Andrew, a porter at their local hospital in Leicester, says, “The first time, it was two Kinder eggs. My kids, who are seven and five, were begging for one, and for weeks I kept on refusing their pleas for a treat as every penny was accounted for to pay for essentials. But I couldn't bear the idea of their disappointment again. On impulse, I popped them in the bottom of the trolley among the bags…

TOM CRUISE Tom's love affair with the UK is welldocumented. As well as reportedly owning a penthouse at the historic Corinthia Residences in London, with four-bedrooms, an indoor pool and amazing views of the city, the Top Gun actor, 61, also has a “rural bolthole” in Biggin Hill, Kent. TOM HOLLAND & ZENDAYA Meeting on the set of Spider-Man: No Way Home in 2016 and beginning a relationship a year later, Tom, 27, convinced his American girlfriend Zendaya, 26, to move to his home city of London. The pair are currently refurbishing a £2.5million six-bedroom property they bought together in Richmond last year, and are often spotted in the park or doing their weekly Waitrose shop! RIHANNA World-famous pop superstar Rihanna also called London home fora while, living in an…

It's been 10 years since Tamzin Outhwaite ended her seven year marriage to Miranda star Tom Ellis, after he reportedly admitted to embarking on an affair with a co-star before leaving the family home they shared with their two young daughters. But last week, Tamzin, 52, who is in a new relationship with boyfriend Tom Child, 32, hit out at her ex-husband on social media after revealing she's still discovering new claims of his infidelity during their marriage. In a now deleted post, the EastEnders actress took to Twitter to share the allegations, claiming, “Ten years since the father of my kids walked out on us for the final time. I still meet new people on jobs who reveal more infidelities and lies he committed. But thankfully my heart and…

Over the last year, thousands of Brits have fallen victim to dating app scammers. These types of con artists set up dating profiles with a fake identity to develop an intimate relationship with the victim, in the hope of swindling them. By the end of 2022, it was reported that the amount of people tricked by romance scammers had increased by 60 per cent – thought to be due to the increasing amount of time spent online. And the amount of money they were robbed of was a staggering £30.9 million, which they sent over out of guilt, pity or fear of rejection. Some scammers pretend they are overseas as an excuse to not meet their victims and many will create a sob story in order to gain sympathy. Most…

BAKE OFF STAR CANDICE BROWN, 38, ON HOW SHE LOOKS AFTER HERSELF INSIDE AND OUT THE KITCHEN IS MY HAPPY PLACE… Cooking is a big remedy for my mental health. I have a combination of clinical depression, PTSD and chronic phobia. I find it really brings me into the present moment and forces me to be mindful. I'VE LEARNED HOW TO SLEEP BETTER… I've never really slept very well. However, I attended The Body Camp last year, and learned a routine which really helps. I always take my Crocs off outside my bedroom, spray mood mist and say some affirmations. If I'm still struggling, reading for a little while helps me drop off to sleep. I TRY TO HAVE A BALANCED DIET…. Getting essential vitamins and nutrients from your food…

She has a while to go before she is set to return to the This Morning sofa and has been pictured out and about in the Algarve, where she's staying with family on her annual summer holiday. But while she's putting on a brave face, sources reveal Holly Willoughby is still struggling after the recent BBC scandal brought back the horror she faced earlier this year following the revelations surrounding her co-star and former friend Phillip Schofield. The duo had previously been incredibly close, having holidayed with each other's families in previous years, but their relationship is said to have “significantly cooled” ahead of Phil's confession. And now the source says she can't get over the huge sense of betrayal, and doesn't feel ready to make contact with him. “Holly…

Checking her reflection, Bruna smiles as she admires her bright pink dress and platinum blonde locks. She looks exactly like her idol, Barbie. Ever since she was young, Bruna had adored the colour pink, earning her the nickname “Barbie” at school. As she got older, she dyed her hair blonde and began wearing all-pink outfits, as she decided to embrace living life as a real-life version of the iconic doll. VIRAL Since then, Brunas forked out nearly £200,000 on transforming her home into a real-life Barbie house, and she shares her life in pink with over 20 million followers. Bruna says, “Living like a Barbie girl is a dream come true for me, and I love sharing my passion for pink! Barbie has always been my biggest inspiration.” In 2006,…

‘THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH SHE CAN DO WHEN SHE'S MIXING WITH WOMEN IN THEIR 20s’ She's been living the high life in Miami as she supports her husband David Beckham's MLS football team – enjoying lavish dinners and swanky nights out as she tries to cement herself as Queen of the US WAGS. And Victoria Beckham, 49 – notorious for her super-svelte physique and uber-strict diet regime – showed off her gymhoned figure last week in a selfie which she shared with her 31 million Instagram followers. But insiders say the pressure of the WAG scene in Miami has left the mum-of-four feeling stressed as she tries to compete with the younger footballers’ wives and girlfriends. The fashion designer was joined by her two younger children, Harper, 12, and 18-year-old…

Lauren Goodger faced unbearable heartbreak last year when she lost her daughter Lorena just moments after birth. And last week, the former TOWIE star, 36, was forced to re-live the tragedy again when her ex-boyfriend, Charles Drury, appeared in court to deny allegations he'd assaulted her on the day of their youngest daughter's funeral last August. The exes, who also share two-year-old Larose, split following the death of their second daughter, and Charles also stands accused of using “controlling and coercive” behaviour during his and Lauren's two-year relationship. Putting on a brave face last week, Lauren – who posted a message to her “guardian angel” on what would have been her first birthday earlier this month – was pictured at a car wash looking happy and relaxed with Larose on…

Emma Ferris, 40, who lives with her two children aged nine and 12, says, “As a victim of a scammer, I am keen to raise awareness to prevent others from getting into the same situation as I did. These types of scammers hope you never speak about it because of shame, but that's how they keep doing it. But talking to someone can save you from losing your hardearned savings. My story is one of fighting back, recovery and learning to thrive. You have the power to do the same. “After my divorce, I started dating a man named Andrew Thomson in 2017. I'd matched with him on the dating app, Tinder. I was a mum of two and had my own company called The Breath Effect, where I work…

MY ELDEST GIRLS “Molly's busy doing her acting degree. Lily appeared on Coach Trip and panto with me, and she's been asked twice to do Love Island.

She's a proper tomboy and doesn't give a stuff about looking perfect!” MORE KIDS “Ryan doesn't have any biological children, but I think he's happy with what he has, though I have said I'm freezing my eggs just in case.

FAMILY MATTERS MANAGE SUMMER HOLIDAY OVERWHELM Weeks of holidays ahead can feel daunting, especially if the weather is bad, but Anna says there are strategies to feel optimistic Looking after your children full-time without the framework of childcare or school is really hard, but there's lots you can do to lower that overwhelm. First, reduce the expectations you place on yourself. Then take a deep breath and plan. Find simple, free, child-initiated activities. Don't fall into the trap of measuring yourself against other families – address what your parameters are. Who is working? Do you have external support from family or other parent friends? Work out what resources you have available. There are lots of play schemes and holiday camps, so if you can afford them, fantastic. If not, think…

What made you want to do this? I've got to do something, haven't I? I haven't been in a TV show for about five years, and it's nice for the missus – it gets me out of the house for a little while… And walking into that MasterChef kitchen…? It's really, really daunting and nerve wracking. I'm not good at competitions, I don't really like them – but I actually really enjoyed myself, which I'm quite shocked about, to be honest. What does your family think of your cooking? I don't cook a lot at home. My wife cooks for me and the kids [James has two children with partner Clair] because she makes sure they're fed properly and don't get food poisoning and stuff like that. So I leave it up…
