‘ VIC IS PANICKING ABOUT WHAT SHE COULD SAY NEXT ’ Victoria Beckham’s worst nightmare became a reality last week when her husband’s alleged former mistress, Rebecca Loos, gave a candid interview in response to his latest Netflix documentary. She revealed yet more explosive details about the biggest showbiz scandal of the noughties that almost tore the Beckham marriage apart including an allegation that she once caught David in bed with a model. And insiders say Victoria Beckham - aka Posh, 49 has blamed David, 48, for triggering Rebeccas’s latest tell-all which has thrust their 23-year marriage back into the spotlight - and could encourage other women to make accusations. A source says, “While Vic knows this backlash was never David’s intention and she appreciates him speaking from the heart…

Interestingly, fans have likened Coleen’s new look to her nemesis Rebekah Vardy, 41 - with one writing, “I thought Rebekah and Coleen were related as they have the same facial looks, lips etc”. And surgeon Amar adds that these “tweakments” seem to be popular among women in their mid thirties to forties, with Michelle Keegan, 36, also appearing to have had similar work done. Amar says, “Again with Rebekah, she has possibly had some filler put into the mid-face to augment the cheek to maintain a youthful plumpness. Like Coleen, I think her lips have been done to bring that level of dominance back to the midline of the face, and give her a bit more volume, so the ratio evens out. I think Botox as well, just to lift…

Fresh from a romantic getaway - having attended the wedding of her friend Jaime Winstone in Sicily - Sheridan Smith looked smitten as she posed alongside boyfriend Dave Ryan in aseries of snaps they both shared with their followers - tagging one another and adding heart emojis. And pals say the 42-year-old actress, who shares three-yearold son Billy with her ex, Jamie Horn, 33, is longing to have a second child with her new man. A source says, “Sheridan’s been broody ever since she had Billy and has been longing to give him a sibling for a while now. “Growing up with two brothers who she’s always been very close to, it’s hugely important for her that Billy has that experience, too, instead of growing up an only child. “After…

Ben Foden and his wife Jackie have announced they are expecting their second baby. Revealing that she had tragically suffered three miscarriages, Jackie - who also shares three-year-old daughter Farrah with Ben - says that they had begun to lose hope before falling pregnant again. The American businesswoman revealed, “I kept getting excited about the pregnancies, but nothing stuck.” The couple, both 38, who married in 2019, also reflected back on tying the knot just two weeks after meeting, with Ben admitting it had been “reckless”. The former rugby player added, “I knew instantly that I needed to have this woman in my life forever.” Ben also co-parents Aoife Belle, 11, and eight-year-old son Tahg with his ex-wife Una Healy.…

Two years after getting married, Geordie Shore star Gaz Beadle and wife Emma McVey have announced their split. In a candid Instagram Q&A session with fans last week, Gary, 35, confirmed the former couple - who share son Chester, five, and daughter Primrose, three - have gone their separate ways after eight years together. He told his followers, “We split three weeks ago. We are still friends, there is no bad blood or anything and we have worked out the best way of doing it for the kids, which for me and Emma is always going to be the most important thing.” Gaz - who previously dated Geordie Shore co-star Charlotte Crosby - and model Emma, 31, tied the knot in the summer of 2021, in a lavish ceremony in…

FAMILY MATTERS BRING IN A DEBRIEF, LIKE NADIYA Recently, Nadiya Hussain revealed that she has a 20-minute debrief with her husband each evening to talk about parenting, and Anna approves I think how Nadiya and her husband are communicating around parenting is absolutely brilliant. Parenting is wonderfully rewarding but it’s also one of the most stressful things anybody can do. It’s really important to be mindful of each other’s parenting styles, cultural differences and learned behaviours, to respect and appreciate each other and compromise on one overall parenting style that you can both adopt and execute as a team. It’s why I created the Couples and Kids Plan (therelationshipplace.co.uk) for couples who have found themselves arguing a lot, who are a bit misaligned when it comes to their parenting styles and…

Between gifts, food, parties and festivities, the average spend over the Christmas period is over £1,000 per person. Mumof-two Gemma Bird, aka @moneymumofficial on Instagram, says you can still have a magical celebration without putting pressure on your finances. “There’s no point getting into debt, it’s just one day really. It’s important to remember that this time of year is about getting together with your loved ones, not spending loads of money,” she urges. GIVE KIDS FREE EXPERIENCES If you have children, chances are your social media is full of Santa experiences already, but with tickets sometimes costing over £100 for a family of four, it’s an expensive way to get into the Christmas spirit. “I always say if people want to do something and have the money, go and…

They set tongues wagging earlier this month when it was revealed Kate Middleton and Prince William had hired Hollywood hotshot, Dame Pippa Harris, as a director of their Royal Foundation. The announcement came just days after the couple were also revealed to be hiring a CEO for the first time in the history of the royal family. Now - with the third Earthshot Prize taking place next week on 7 November in Singapore - an insider reveals that Kate and William’s shake-up is just the start of a full-scale Hollywood-style takeover. During a trip to New York last month to promote the initiative - which celebrates and rewards causes actively tackling climate change and environmental issues Prince William, 41, proved hugely popular, with the city’s former mayor Michael Bloomberg telling…

When Scarlet Black looks in the mirror, she smiles at the confident, happy woman reflected back at her. However, it’s taken Scarlet years to feel comfortable in her own skin - and it’s come at a price. Over the past two years, 27-year-old Scarlet has spent £30k on 13 cosmetic surgeries - her first being a gastric sleeve in 2021, and her most recent a Brazilian bum lift in August. To fund the procedures, Scarlet has blown her entire house-deposit savings. Scarlet, who lives in London, says, “Wherever I am, this body is always going to be with me, so it’s abetter investment. I wanted to be at peace with myself, and now I finally am. My quality of life has massively improved. I might not be getting my dream…

Bringing home his Labrador puppy, Buster, was a special moment for Rob Smith, and the pooch quickly became his pride and joy. But Buster went missing just two months later, leaving Rob devastated. It was only when a kind stranger named Samantha offered her support after seeing his Faeebook post appealing for help to find his pup that Rob began to feel more positive. And in an incredible twist of fate, he and Samantha hit it off, and in time got engaged and became parents. But nine years later and in an even more miraculous turn, Rob got the call he’d never dared hope for - Buster had been found and they were reunited. Rob says, “It was a real happy ending. Buster found my gorgeous family for me. You…

Looking gorgeous in an intricate lace gown as she danced the night away with friends and family in Sicily, Jaime Winstone’s Italian wedding looked idyllic. The actress, 38, and her long-term partner, DJ James Suckling, were joined by Jaime’s dad, actor Ray Winstone and friends kick-starting celebrations with stag and hen-dos on the Italian island before their wedding blessing five days later. The wedding itself took place in a centuries-old former tuna fishery turned super-chic coastal destination and Jaime was surrounded by 12 bridesmaids, including her younger sister. Guests were also treated to a sound-healing bath, followed by a meal and wedding favours of locally sourced olive oil and a late-night DJ set. The couple have been dating since 2015 and share a seven-year-old son, Raymond, together.…

REPRESENTING MIDLIFERS JANEY: “People understood us because we’re all normal and have real stories they can relate to. Nowadays dating shows on TV seem to be based around the Love Island generation, who are all body beautiful.” ROGER: “There’s nothing wrong my body, thank you!” CELEBRITY FANS JANEY: “We’ve had support from Denise Van Outen, Sara Cox - and Jill Scott started following us, which was incredible.” ROGER: “When I went on Lorraine, Richard Arnold stopped me outside, and asked me for a selfie because his mum loves me. People come up and say I hope you don’t mind, and I say, I’ll be upset when it all stops!”…

When people like Patricia Swannell are given the all-clear from cancer, that means that after five years, according to all the tests for their particular cancer, it has gone. It sadly doesn’t mean you’ve got the all-clear for the rest of your life, because if you’ve had cancer once, you’ve got an increased risk of having it again. Getting that all-clear is cause for celebration, but with awareness of future risks. WHY CANCER COMES BACK Secondary cancer isn’t the cancer returning to the same place, it’s cancer that has moved elsewhere in the body. With secondary breast cancer, it most commonly moves to your bones, liver, abdominal lining, lungs or brain. A tiny number of cancer cells could be left behind during surgery, or could have already broken away and…

They may have the best intentions, but do our loved ones really know what’s best for us when it comes to our relationships? As the people who know us best, perhaps friends and family can help when it comes to our search for love. Which may well be why Tinder has launched a new tool called Matchmaker (isn’t that their job?). And the app is now inviting 15 friends and family members to do so on your behalf. They are granted access to possible matches for you, and have 24 hours to view profiles and make recommendations. Thankfully they won’t be able to message, as there’s nothing worse than saying ‘my mate fancies you’. I’ll give Tinder A* for effort, but will this work in practice? I do think having…

• UTILISE DAYLIGHT The UK often experiences bright sun throughout autumn and winter, so open all curtains and blinds so that the sunlight can help to heat up different rooms. • STRATEGICALLY PLACE FURNITURE To use as little energy as possible, make sure there is no furniture, such as a sofa, in front of the radiator as this will soak up the majority of the heat. • MAKE THE MOST OF SHOWER STEAM When taking a hot shower, leave the bathroom door open so that some of the steam and heat warms the surrounding areas of the home. • PUT CURTAINS BEHIND THE RADIATOR Don’t allow the curtains to cover the radiator, as this will direct the heat towards the window. Place the curtains behind the radiator to heat the…

‘THE WORK IS NATURAL AND WORKS WELL FOR HER – SHE LOOKS REALLY FRESH’ She’s the woman of the moment, with her new Disney+ documentary making headlines. But while all eyes are on Coleen Rooney and her three-part series, The Real Wagatha Story, fans haven’t just been wowed by the WAG’s sleuthing skills, her strongerthan-ever romance with hubby Wayne and her lavish home they’ve also been obsessing over her glow-up. In the show - where she speaks for the first time about her High Court case against Rebekah Vardy, in which fans dubbed her ‘Wagatha Christie’ after using detective skills to expose her former friend for leaking stories about her to the papers - the star looked very different from the fresh-faced girl who was thrust into the spotlight 21…

She’s already one of the most loved presenters on TV, but Kate Garraway’s stardom could be reaching new heights, as the 56 year old is one of ITV’s top choices to present This Morning alongside Ben Shephard. But insiders say the prospect of taking on Holly Willoughby’s former role has left Kate feeling torn as her stricken husband Derek Draper, 56, still requires round-the-clock care. A source says, “Kate is firmly in the sights of bosses at This Morning, and she ticks so many boxes. She’s a brilliant presenter who can easily switch between covering serious news and then interviewing a member of the public about something fun that’s happened in their life. Of course, with all she’s gone through in the last few years with Derek, she’s won over…

She bravely fought breast cancer before receiving the all-clear in April this year, but now Sarah Beeny has candidly spoken out about the long-term effects of the illness on her marriage to artist Graham Swift. Opening up to pal Gabby Logan on The Mid Point podcast, Sarah, 51, said, “We’re hanging on in there by our fingernails. I mean, it’s not easy, is it? “Graham always said, ‘The day we have to work at our marriage, I’m going to leave’. And I was like, ‘Really?’ But I think he has had to work at it to be honest.” After admitting that she had been “horrible” at times while battling with breast cancer - which saw her undergo chemotherapy, a double mastectomy, radiotherapy and reconstruction after being diagnosed in 2022 -…

Hollywood was left stunned last week after it was revealed that Meryl Streep and husband Don Gummer secretly split over six years ago. An announcement by the reps said, “Don Gummer and Meryl Streep have been separated for more than 6 years, and while they will always care for each other, they have chosen lives apart.” The news comes after the couple, who share four children - Henry, 43, Mamie, 40, Grace, 37 and Louisa, 32 - together, marked their 45th wedding anniversary in September. In 2012, Meryl, 74, who has always kept her love life out of the public eye, dedicated her Oscar for The Iron Lady to Don, 76, saying, “I want him to know that everything I value most in our lives, you’ve given me.” Previously sharing…
