NEWS ‘IF TIME WAS ON MY SIDE, I WOULD WAIT AND CONSIDER MORE OPTIONS’ She was supported by her ex, Liam Payne, last week as she made a rare redcarpet appearance at a charity fundraiser in memory of her late Girls Aloud bandmate, Sarah Harding. And now insiders say that Cheryl Tweedy has grown closer than ever to Liam, 29, in recent months – so much so that they're seriously considering having another baby together. BEAUTIFUL SON The former X Factor judge, 39, joined her former bandmates, Nadine Coyle, 37, Nicola Roberts, 37, and Kimberley Walsh, 40, to host The Primrose Ball at a swanky London hotel in honour of Sarah, who tragically lost her battle with breast cancer last year at just 39. Fans were taken aback by Liam's…

Six years after Angelina Jolie originally filed for divorce from Brad Pitt, their custody battle has reached new lows between the two Hollywood stars. And an insider tells Closer that amid the ongoing toxicity between Angelina and Brad, the couple's six children – Maddox, 21, Pax, 18, Zahara, 17, Shiloh, 16, Knox and Vivienne, both 14 – are taking Angelina's side. ACRIMONIOUS The source says, “Maddox, Pax and Zahara all refer to themselves as Jolie only, it's been that way for a while, but now Shiloh and the twins are looking to follow suit. It's music to Angelina's ears – Brad is still trying to see them as often as he can, but it's minimal. They're making their own path now and fully supportive of their mum.” Brad, 58, and…

Their cheeky flirting has been the talk of this year's Strictly Come Dancing – and now Kristina Rihanoff admits she's been hooked on Kym Marsh and Graziano di Prima's raunchy routines. Kristina, 45 – who now has a six-year-old daughter, Mila, with former rugby player Ben Cohen after meeting on the show – was known for her provocative performances during a seven-year stint on the show. She smiles, “Kym and Graziano are a wonderful pair to watch – you're drawn to their sizzling chemistry and they make you believe they're totally in love. Kym is a seasoned actress and she's playing a role and getting into all the emotions. I know for a fact that Graziano is completely in love with his stunning wife so there's definitely nothing else going…

They've been working on their Essex home for three years – and last week, Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan finally moved in, with Mark sharing a video of them enjoying a meal on their first night in the £3.5 million mansion. Mark said alongside the video, “Look at this! Our first pizza takeaway in our new home!” before excitedly going on to share videos of the bathroom, kitchen and bedrooms. But despite years of renovations and building work, sources say Michelle has found the move difficult to adjust to. A source says, “While they're both thrilled they've finally moved, Mark and Michelle are experiencing a few teething problems. For the first time, they're in the same place as husband and wife, and Michelle is finding it all quite daunting and…

Allison's drinking spiralled out of control Allison Purcell, 54, who is single, has five children aged from 24 to 32. She now works full-time as a housing officer and lives near Portsmouth, Hampshire. She says, “Until last October, I was drinking up to three bottles of wine a night and my life was a mess. Perhaps the worst part was my children were so embarrassed that they hated spending time with me. But also, I'd injured myself in all manner of ways, from knocking my teeth out to breaking my leg tripping over a dog at a party. Once I left a club and a friend found me staggering home along the middle of the road. “Before I split up with my husband 20 years ago, I'd barely drunk, maybe…

Buying flashy vitamins and supplements is a total waste of money. People have cupboards full of “magic” pills and Chinese herbs that supposedly grant health and wellbeing. They're expensive and almost always totally unnecessary. People believe the marketing – they see celebrities with perfect faces and shiny hair promoting them and are convinced they work. But our bodies are so well designed that they will do everything they need to do, provided we eat and live normally – unless we're ill. FOCUS ON FOOD I get asked all the time by patients which supplements they should be taking, and I always say they shouldn't, they should focus on eating properly. We often see vitamin pills as a way to undo all our unhealthy habits – we think that if we…

We all put on some sort of front, and perhaps filter, when dating, be it showing our best photos on our profile or sharing the best parts of our personalities rather than our worst traits. But then again, what we're hiding tells someone more about us than what we reveal. Perhaps this is something I'm hyper sensitive to, having been lied to previously with men I've dated who were masquerading as single when they were anything but. So, when my last date hid the fact he had children from me, I was a bit miffed. He didn't volunteer the information, and wasn't open about it. On our first date he bravely opened up about being adopted and how he'd like to meet his birth mother, and we spoke about that…

BUMP BUYS FOR LESS Q I'm six months pregnant and rapidly outgrowing my clothes as my bump is getting bigger. I don't want to buy loads of maternity wear but I'm in desperate need of some comfortable pieces. What can you recommend to see me through the coming weeks? A Dealing with an ever-growing bump can be tricky, but when shopping you don't have to limit yourself to maternity ranges. Look for loose-fit smock shapes or dresses in stretchy fabrics that will easily expand with your tum, like mum-to-be Mollie. The jersey fabric will hold its shape so it can be worn after the baby arrives. Lots of maternity buys on the high street can double up as a nursing pieces too! THE EDIT … CONCEALED SPLIT SEAM FOR NURSING!…

Tamzin outhwaite as Diana “Once I read the script I thought, ‘Well, obviously, it's a yes’ – and filming was just fabulous.” Lee Mack as Willy Watkins “It's about serial killers – but the tone is very family friendly. It's just a right laugh.” Hugh Dennis as Aaron “We filmed near the Fast and Furious set, wondering if we'd bump into Vin Diesel…” Sherrie Hewson as Gemma's mum “We laughed most of the time – just joyous! But it was very hard to concentrate, you had to gather yourself and gird your loins to stop corpsing…” Sandi Toksvig as Harry “I play an older woman with a lifelong career as a very successful assassin. I'm now retired on my very nice yacht, but my trigger finger is always itching…”…

We're not American, Nicki, but we love to hear Americans say, “Would you like extra fries with that?” And we love to hear Caribbean locals say, “Would you like to move into our spare room – the one with the beach views”. Please make it happen, Rylan. And if possible, could you remain in No.10 for at least 10 years. We can't bear any more chopping and changing! INSPIGRAM Sorry, Roch, we just can't get on board with the idea of staying close to people who are giving off high doses of radiation. Health and safety wouldn't allow it.…

When Yara O'Brien qualified as a cardiology nurse two years ago, she envisioned a long future in the NHS. In her early twenties, Yara wanted a secure, long-term career, so she set her sights on nursing and after three years at university, she eventually qualified as a nurse. Yara, now 27, from London, was excited to start in her full-term post, but her entry into the profession was rocky to say the least. She says, “I was excited to move from placements and into my first full-time role, but it was a scary jump upwards. There were so many situations that I wasn't prepared for on the ward. I'd only been taught how to insert a cannular on a dummy, but I was suddenly expected to insert them into high-risk…

KATE: ‘Darcey and I FaceTimed Derek In the car over – he's so proud of Darcey’ She's had a tough few years, and last week Kate Garraway cried with emotion, as did her 16-yearold daughter Darcey, when she won an NTA award for her documentary Caring For Derek. After contracting Covid in 2020, Kate's husband Derek, 55, has spent the last two years in and out of hospital, most recently being rushed back in with sepsis – putting the family through more heartache. But Kate, also 55, told Closer that she and Darcey were able to share part of their evening with Derek, as they had him on video call as they headed to the event. Kate said, “We FaceTimed Derek in the car over here. He's really proud of…

Strictly Come Dancing is packed with scandals most years – and the first bombshell seemed to hit the show last week as viewers called for judge Shirley Ballas to be sacked, accusing her of “sexism” and “favouritism”. The comments came after Shirley, 62 – who has been working on Strictly since 2017 – said she would have saved Richie Anderson in the dance off over Fleur East – despite him making an obvious mistake in his routine. It followed previous claims by fans that she favours male contestants on the show. One viewer branded her “downright rude, sexist” and another even posted, “Get rid of Shirley!” Amid the drama, Shirley hit back at the trolls on Twitter, writing, “Here we are again – how sad”. She also shared a cryptic…

‘COMMIT TO THE PERSON THEY'LL BECOME’ Jessica and Justin first met back in 2005. He was a heartthrob boy band-singer-turned-solo-superstar, she was a model-turned-actress – so it was a tried and tested combination. But it wasn't until a party in 2007 that they got together. After a brief split in 2011, the couple tied the knot a year later with a lavish Italian wedding and 10 years down the line, the pair are still very much in love. Talking about how they've made it work all these years, Justin, 41, revealed, “I think the mistake is that people commit to who that person is right then and not the person they're going to become. The art of staying together is changing together.” ‘KEEP DATING YOUR PARTNER’ For the loved-up pair,…

SUPER SAVER SPECIAL! She's firmly cemented her place as Instagram's resident cleaning guru, with her nifty tips and tricks to clean everything from mattresses to oven racks. And Lynsey Crombie, who has amassed nearly 300,000 followers on social media, and regularly appears on This Morning, says cleaning doesn't have to cost a fortune. She says, “I believe you could clean your entire home for a fiver. In these times especially, you need to be creative and think outside the box. You can make your own spray by mixing an essential oil and bicarbonate of soda with water and you have a fabric refreshener. What's more, if you grate a bar of soap and dissolve the granules into hot water, you have a liquid detergent that you can pour into your…

HUG YOURSELF (KIND OF) Research has found that when women hug their significant other, they experience a drop in stress hormone cortisol. It's because being on the receiving end of affection releases “feel-good” oxytocin. “It's a signal to our body that we are safe and cared for, helping us to relax,” says psychologist and yoga instructor Suzy Reading, who has created The Little Box of Self-Care. “Also, when we enjoy a tight hug, we're engaging our chest and arm muscles, so when we let it go, it helps us to release tension.” To get the best from that hug, “give the experience your full attention. Don't fritter it away by thinking about your to-do list at the same time,” says Suzy. And if you're home alone, there are other ways…

TV STAR JAMES JORDAN, 44, ON HOW HE LOOKS AFTER HIS BODY AND MIND EAT WELL, SLEEP WELL AND EXERCISE…. Those are the three things that make me feel good. I try to get to the gym to lift weights whenever I can. I GAVE UP SMOKING IN JANUARY 2021… It was one of the hardest things I've done but I feel so much better.

What is it about POB? I hosted the very first Pride Of Britain in 1999 for the Daily Mirror, but it wasn't televised. The room was full of famous people like Cherie Blair, Mick Hucknall, Cilla, Paul McCartney… and because of these stories, everyone was in tears. We said we should make it into a television show, and they're still happening 20 or so years later. It fills me with a huge amount of pride and the awards are very important to me. Why do you think it's so special? It's about the unsung heroes – and it's wonderful that celebrities are there doing their thing. There's also a purity about it, and I think that gets people. Year after year, it's one of the biggest events of the calendar.…

With over 5 million followers on Instagram, fans can't resist Stacey Solomon's picture-perfect family life with Joe Swash and their five adorable children – or “Pickles” as she calls them. But while on the surface their blended family appears to have adapted seamlessly, that's not always been true, as the couple revealed last week. Joe, 40, candidly revealed the heartbreak he experienced with his eldest son, Harry, and how that affected his current parenting, while Stacey spoke out about the trials and tribulations of having children from different relationships. Luckily, they are always there to support each other, even through the dark times. Looking back at his bitter custody battle with ex-partner, Emma Sophocleous, which began less than a year after Harry's birth in 2007, Joe describes himself as “a…

Freya Humphrey*, 31, has worked for the NHS as a nurse for five years. She says, “I'm not surprised by the number of nurses leaving the NHS. Stress and fear during the pandemic made a lot of people reconsider nursing and, consequently, those who are left are now burned out because wards are understaffed. “We have a backlog of cases, catching up with people who were on waiting lists for two years. Plus we have all the chronic patients who missed their appointments or couldn't come to hospital, so there are patients called ‘crash landers’ who are much sicker and need more intensive nursing. “There's no work-life balance, we are getting emails from colleagues at 11pm at night, six hours after some are meant to have finished their shift because…

Growing up, Stephanie Ledbetter was forced to wear modest clothing, wasn't allowed to date until aged 16 and was even forbidden fizzy drinks. In fact, Stephanie was so repressed that after marrying boyfriend Billy, now 39, she spent her wedding night and honeymoon a virgin. But after a frank conversation 17 years into their marriage, Stephanie and Billy's lives took a drastic turn when they decided to try swinging. Now, nine months since their first rendezvous, the pair regularly sleep with other people and are happier than ever. LIFE-CHANGING Stephanie, 36, says, “Swinging has boosted my confidence and taught me how to love my body. It's been fun to explore our inner selves and discover who we are. It's changed our lives.” When Stephanie met Billy through her church in…

When Holly Fleet, 28, posts a video to TikTok, she waits with bated breath for the comments to start pouring in from her 15.9k followers. She knows that although most will be encouraging and supportive, she'll also receive negativity from people who don't understand her condition, and even blame her for the trauma she has gone through. The reason is that Holly wears a stoma bag, which became a permanent fixture in her life after suffering with debilitating condition ulcerative colitis. She'd struggled with stomach pains and bowel problems for most of her early twenties, but when she started a new job as a journalist in January 2020, her health deteriorated. She says, “I was working the night shift, from 11pm-7am, when I started to get these awful pains. I'd…

We're more than halfway through Sober October, where people challenge themselves to give up alcohol for four weeks. Recent figures show 24 per cent of adults regularly drink over the Government guidelines of 14 units a week, and in England alone there are over 600,000 dependent drinkers, with 82 per cent not receiving treatment. Excessive alcohol is linked to more than 60 medical conditions including liver disease, cancer and heart disease, and latest statistics show that alcohol-related deaths have risen by nearly 19 per cent. Many celebrities have already gone ‘dry’, reaping the benefits of giving up alcohol – including Michelle Heaton, Suzanne Shaw, Davina McCall and Lily Allen. Claire Louise Owen runs The Soberholic, a support group for women choosing to go alcohol free, and wrote the book So…

As Ruth Taylor heard the snip of scissors, she looked forward to a fresh new haircut. But she wasn't in a high-class salon – Ruth's husband, Thomas, was cutting her hair as part of cost-saving measures to bring the family back from the brink of losing their home, as they faced a £21,000 debt. Ditching the hairdresser was just the beginning. She told her children, Olivia and Jake, they couldn't join in with school trips, and Ruth swapped the gymnastics and swimming lessons Olivia enjoyed for fun but free activities such as baking. Ruth says, “We told the children, who were 10 and 11, we needed to work more because we were in debt. “Although they didn't fully understand, they were supportive and didn't complain.” SPIRALLING The Taylors’ debt started…

RELATIONSHIPS AVOID MONEY ROWS Mismatched spending habits can cause arguments and resentment, so couples need to approach finances as a team Money struggles are cited as one of the most common reasons for relationship troubles, and right now there's a higher chance of this kind of conflict affecting your relationship. When I first moved in with my husband, I realised that he liked to wear shorts and a vest all year round, so he would switch the central heating on full and continue to lounge around as if he were on a beach holiday through winter. When I get cold, I make a hot water bottle or throw on an extra layer of clothing. In truth, neither he or I are wrong, we just have different values and beliefs. Now…

With energy bills rising fast it's no surprise many of us are looking for ways to cut costs day-to-day, but figuring out which money rules to live by – and which ones don't actually help all that much – can be confusing. We asked Mary Okoroafor, who founded The Humble Penny (thehumblepenny.com) with her husband Ken, to share her thoughts… FOIL BEHIND YOUR RADIATORS SAVES CASH Heard of this heat-saving trick? The theory is that silver foil behind a radiator helps reflect heat back into the room. But does it actually work? “Yes, especially on external walls,” confirms Mary. “Reflecting heat back into the house via foil (rather than letting it escape through the walls) helps save money in the long run by preserving precious heat – our electrician actually…

DOUBLE-WEAR DRESSES Q From Halloween to Christmas, I've got a few events coming up. I'm trying to keep my spending to a minimum at the moment so I need a dress I can rewear but that still feels special everytime it's on. What can you suggest? A Take a note from Kate, and opt for a timeless LBD. A chic and classic frock can easily be reworked in endless ways without losing any of the glamour factor. Simply change your accessories around – switch from animal prints for one event, to sparkling metallics for another, and you'll create a completely different vibe. Black not your thing? A block colour dress with minimal details will work just as well. THE EDIT … TRY LAYERING UP OVER A LACE BLOUSE GIVE A…

GET CRAFTY WITH PAINT Whether you have a small amount of paint left in the tin, or a shelf full of tester pots in the shed, even the smallest amount of colour can transform a space. Reboot picture or mirror frames with a lick of bright paint. Upcycling dated wooden furniture or wall panelling with a colour-pop will look creative and fresh against patterned wallpaper. Feeling artistic? You could bring an old flatpack set of drawers to life with a playful rainbow or floral design – there are plenty of tutorials online. Try painting halfway up walls in kids’ rooms, or painting square and rectangle blocks of colour to place a shelf or a framed print. Mask your design, then use a lightly loaded brush to paint along the tape…
