She recently revealed that she’s on a journey to find her ‘most confident self’ after she shared a post saying that ‘after having four children, dealing with weight loss and stress, my body has been through a lot’. CONCERN But after recent pictures of TOWIE star Amy Childs panicked fans and led them to voice concerns over her weight loss, her inner circle are now said to be growing increasingly worried. A source close to Amy, 35, says, ‘Every day Amy gets endless messages from fans telling her they’re concerned about her shrinking body, and she’s been desperately trying to put on weight. All the people closest to her are really worried, especially her mum who would love to see Amy gain a bit. But Amy’s been reassuring everyone that…

Her love life has regularly hit headlines ever since she shot to fame on Love Island in 2022 – but Ekin-Su Cülcüloglu tells Closer she’s now happy being on her own. ‘I love being single –I’m here for it and there’s nothing wrong with it. Dating is so fun,’ says Ekin-Su, who recently admitted she’s connected with celebrities including actor Taron Egerton on dating app Raya. Fans first got to know Ekin-Su, 31, during season eight of Love Island, when her turbulent relationship with then-partner Davide Sanclimenti, 30, unfolded on screen. The pair were together on and off for almost two years after winning the show, before they split for good in January 2024. After her stint on Celebrity Big Brother the same year, Ekin-Su was then linked to Married…

KATIE MOVES IN WITH EAMONN Eamonn Holmes’ girlfriend Katie Alexander has reportedly moved in with him amid his health woes. Insiders tell Closer the marriage counsellor wants to support Eamonn as he focuses on getting back on his feet. A source says, ‘Katie is moving in as she supports Eamonn through his next surgery. He needs an operation to help his spine because the last one wasn’t as successful as they’d hoped, and it’s left him more reliant on his wheelchair. Eamonn is fully reliant on Katie – she will have to help him out of bed and do just the simple things as he recovers. ‘Logistically this is a big move for Katie, who has children she co-parents with her ex. She will be putting in a lot of…

He recently praised his wife of 17 years for how she’s handled his drinking over the years, admitting that he thinks he would be dead without her support. Now, ahead of Wayne Rooney’s 40th birthday on 24 October, sources have revealed to Closer that his devoted wife Coleen is planning a star-studded bash and a night to remember, not only for his big milestone, but to celebrate how far they’ve come. SURPRISE SINGER A source close to the couple – who have rubbed shoulders with stars such as Lewis Capaldi and Ed Sheeran over the years – says, ‘Coleen has absolutely loved planning Wayne’s 40th birthday party, and she’s determined that it’s going to be the best celebration ever. She wants to put on an event that Wayne will remember…

We all handle money differently – some of us save like pros, others spend like there’s no tomorrow, and many of us fall somewhere in between. Getting to know your financial personality isn’t just a bit of fun; it can help you spot habits that may be holding you back, make smarter choices and stress less about cash. We asked Rebecca Routledge, money-saving expert at Money Wellness, to help us understand some of the most common money personalities, and practical tips to help you take control of your finances based on your spending style.

Strictly has well and truly returned with a bang, with plenty of high scores across the board. But rumblings behind the scenes suggest not everyone is happy, with both fans and celebs divided after it was suggested that both Amber Davies and Karen Carney have an ‘unfair advantage’. Since finding fame on Love Island eight years ago, Amber has pursued a career as a West End performer, while former Lioness Karen trained in dance as a child. A source reveals the backlash has upped the pressure on both women, saying, ‘While excitement is high among fans about Amber joining, some of the professional dancers are less than thrilled, claiming her background as a trained dancer gives her an “unfair advantage” over the other celebrities. ‘Strictly is supposed to be about…

She had a summer of fun, partying in Ibiza after appearing on the 24th series of Celebrity Big Brother. But now, reality star Ella Rae Wise tells Closer she’s turned over a new leaf. Ella, 25, shares that she’s now teetotal and is working out three times a week with a personal trainer. ‘I just feel like for me, now it’s time to focus on myself, my body and my mind’ she says at the Shein AW25 launch. Earlier in the year, her 18-month relationship with fellow TOWIE star Dan Edgar, 35, collapsed – but she shares that she’s in no rush to get into anything new. ‘I’d be open to dating,’ she says, ‘but life doesn’t always revolve around men’. And Ella insists her alcohol-free life won’t impact her…

She wowed fans with a sexy topless holiday throwback snap last week, showing off her incredible body transformation and teasing, ‘Take me back to the sun and sea… This lady needs her vitamin D!’ Former EastEnders star Martine McCutcheon, 49, shared the image – in which she posed in high-waisted black pants, and used her mobile phone to cover her boobs – with her half million followers on Instagram. FINANCIAL WOES The risqué post comes after Martine filed for bankruptcy – her second, the first being in 2013 – in July, just two months after selling her £1.5million family home at a reduced rate. Now, sources tell Closer that Martine, who shares 10-year-old son Rafferty with her ex Jack McManus, is considering turning to controversial online platform OnlyFans to pay…

How much do you spend? Around £170 a week. Tesco is the go-to, but for a treat I’ll pop into M&S, usually when I’m heading to see my mum. Prices have definitely shot up, and if you try to buy ethically, it’s even more expensive. Describe your daily diet… Breakfast is porridge with milk and banana, plus toast and coffee to get going. Lunch depends on the day. At home it’s often an omelette packed with whatever’s in the fridge: chorizo, chillies or cheese, with some salad and bread. On the Emmerdale set, it’s usually a jacket potato and salad from the canteen, or sometimes I’m lucky enough to grab fresh fish like sea bass. Dinner is hearty and family-friendly. Recently it was chicken cacciatore with pasta, greens and plenty…

Joe Wicks, aka The Body Coach, found fame with his viral recipes and online workouts, but now he’s on a mission to expose the dark side of the food industry. In his new Channel 4 documentary, he teams up with TV’s Dr Chris van Tulleken to create his own ‘Killer’ protein bar, in a bid to reveal what really goes into some ultraprocessed foods. ‘When I read Dr Chris’ book, Ultra-Processed People, it blew my mind,’ he says. ‘It woke me up to the foods even I was eating and giving my kids. In the UK, 60% of adults’ energy intake is from UPFs.’ While products like packaged cakes, crisps and highly-processed ready meals are cheap and convenient, they’re often high in fat and sugar and contain artificial additives. Worryingly,…

If you’re planning your Christmas spending carefully, it’s tempting to wait until November to bag a bargain in the Black Friday sales. But, according to Liz Hunter, Commercial Director at MoneyExpert, that could be a false economy. ‘While many expect Black Friday to offer the best deals, data shows its reputation as the cheapest time for Christmas is often overstated,’ says Liz. ‘In fact, a study from Which? found that just one in 50 Black Friday deals are at their cheapest price on the day of the sales extravaganza.’ They also found that only 2% were not available at the same price or cheaper within six months either side of the date. ‘So, don’t wait around to do your Christmas shopping,’ advises Liz. ‘If you spot a good deal before…

IF IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK The year ahead is going to bring the start of one of the most intense cycles for romance that you will experience this lifetime. You could find your love life more stable than it’s been in decades. But if you keep falling for shysters, well… say no more! LIBRA 23 SEP – 22 OCT This could be a great week as your ruling planet, Venus, harmonises with the lucky planet, Jupiter. It could translate as you moving from theatre love (which sounds a bit airy fairy but can be a wonderful thing), or it could translate as good news at work.

She recently divulged the secrets to her sensational figure, revealing it’s the result of ‘accidental fasting’ and a ‘healthy vegetarian lifestyle’. But sources tell Closer that maintaining her trim frame isn’t as effortless as Amanda Holden makes it seem – and she feels the pressure to look her best. ‘Keeping up appearances is one thing, but maintaining them is another,’ an insider says. ‘Bad lighting can be a career breaker, and there’s also a fine line with filters and editing. The last thing you want is for people to think you don’t look like yourself! ‘Amanda’s secret is drinking plenty of water, and also having some wine! She also swears by her five a day, and loves her fruit smoothies. She enjoys yoga and Pilates, and always tries to get…

Kate Garraway hasn’t ruled out finding love again after the death of her husband Derek Draper – but it’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Opening up about the prospect of dating, the Good Morning Britain host said in an interview, ‘I don’t feel as if I can. It’s a weird one, because I wouldn’t like to think I’d spend the rest of my life without love, but also it feels preposterous at the moment to think of being with anyone else.’ STRUGGLES When she does feel ready, Kate, 58, hopes to meet someone ‘organically’, adding, ‘I do realise that, when the time is right, I’m not going to meet someone in my living room.’ Kate lost her beloved husband – dad to her two children, Darcey, 19, and Billy, 16…

I'VE CUT DOWN ON ALCOHOL AND NOT LOOKED BACK… I stopped for a month, and then I ended up giving it up for two years. Last Christmas I had one drink, but I’ve never gone back to what I used to drink. I much prefer life this way. I'VE WORKED HARD TO GET RID OF SELFLIMITING BELIEFS… Our problem as humans is that we believe our thoughts and take them as real. For example, I believed I didn’t like going to the gym, but it turns out I actually enjoy it. We hang on to these things and a lot of them aren’t true. I HAVE A SCOOP OF COLLAGEN IN THE MORNING… I’m not massively into vitamins, but I do like the Ancient & Brave collagen powder. I have…

Ectopic pregnancies are quite common – around one in 80 pregnancies in the UK is ectopic. But that doesn’t make it any less heartbreaking if it happens to you, as former Strictly star Stacey Dooley recently revealed. The TV presenter broke down while filming a documentary about surrogacy, as she explained she had lost a baby due to an ectopic pregnancy. Although we don’t know exactly why they happen, we do know they don’t stop you getting pregnant again. Technically speaking, an ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that occurs anywhere other than the womb. The most common place they happen is in one of the fallopian tubes (the tubes that carry an egg from your ovaries to your womb). Unfortunately, that means there’s not enough room for a baby to…
