Office manager Sarah French-Thornley, 58, lives in Manchester with Chris, 53, and his daughter, Meg, 24. She says, “I was with my husband Dave for 27 years, and we were soulmates. He was diagnosed with colorectal cancer in 2006 when our daughter Emma was 12, and he died in February 2009. “When he knew he was dying, we spoke about the future. He was adamant that I should get a boyfriend as he hated the thought of me being on my own. “When he died 12 years ago, the idea of dating was inconceivable. I was heartbroken. But 18 months on, I was taken by surprise when I was asked out. It didn't work out, but it made me realise I would like another relationship. “Six years after Dave's death,…

Former Love Island star Amy Hart is counting down the days until she welcomes her new addition with boyfriend Sam Rason. And last week, the reality star – who was left heartbroken by Curtis Pritchard on the ITV2 show before meeting Sam in 2021 – was spoiled by her close friends as they hosted a lavish pre-baby lunch – after being under strict instructions not to host a baby shower, for fear of it being too cheesy. Dressed in red, Amy, 30, looked gorgeous as she posed under an “Oh Baby!” neon sign, and admitted she didn't want to be “showered with lots of beige” after deciding to keep the baby's gender a secret.…

VALENTINE'S SPECIAL! EASY WAYS TO ORGASM “Less than 20 per cent of women orgasm through penetration alone, so foreplay and external stimulation are so important when it comes to female pleasure and climax,” explains Annabelle. “Using tingling lubricants during foreplay can help, they encourage blood flow to the genitals which increases sensitivity.” In fact, it's thought that using lubricant makes you 80 per cent more likely to orgasm. “For heterosexual couples, I always recommend people try a vibrating love ring, where the small vibrator rests against the clitoris to provide stimulation during penetrative sex.” Annabelle also suggests getting to know your own body first, “Work on your own personal pleasure through masturbation. Knowing what we like and what we don't is paramount when it comes to climax. Then, in the…

Closer's dating expert, Rebecca Twomey, on when to trust your gut – but also when to test it and check it's still in working order while meeting people online If my highs, lows and oh-nos in dating have taught me anything, it's this: being aware of red flags is only part of the battle, reacting to them is key. And it's a lesson I have to keep reminding myself about. After my latest attempt to come off the apps failed, I began speaking to one guy who seemed to tick a lot of boxes. I let myself get just a teeny bit excited. A major red flag to me is someone who is happy to message non-stop, asks constant questions in a love bombing style – to essentially hook you…
