‘HARRY WILL REGRET CUTTING OFF HIS FATHER IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO HIM’ Meghan Markle has recently delighted fans by revealing more photos of the children she shares with her husband of seven years, Prince Harry. But an insider tells Closer the happy family pictures have been a bitter pill to swallow for the royal family they left behind in the UK. Earlier this month, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, posted a video to her 3.7 million Instagram followers of her daughter Lilibet's fourth-birthday trip to Disneyland in California. But the footage is said to have riled the royals and particularly upset Harry's father, King Charles III, who has only met his granddaughter once, and her six-year-old brother Archie a handful of times. So much so, that sources tell Closer how…

Her Netflix show Celebrity Bear Hunt was hailed by fans and TV industry pundits alike, being described by one critic as ‘the most fun jungle reality show in decades’. However, there was devastating news for Holly Willoughby earlier this month when execs on the streaming giant axed the show after one series, leaving her without a TV show for the first time in over two decades. And a source tells Closer that Holly has been left panicking over what the future holds for her. The 44-year-old's career has been in turmoil since she sensationally quit This Morning in 2023, with her other main project, Dancing On Ice, later being axed. A source tells Closer, ‘Holly worries that she is in career freefall and is feeling so unsure and lost. She's…

Eva*, 18, was at a party when she started kissing a boy she liked – and he began to strangle her. She recalls, ‘I was on a night out for my friend Amelia's* 18th, and I started to get close to one of the guys there, Chris*. I'd fancied him for a while and he was recently single, so we kissed a few times in the club. When we went back to Amelia's afterwards, we made a bed from the sofa cushions and carried on kissing. ‘But suddenly his hands were around my neck and he was strangling me. I was so shocked that I went limp. Every fibre of me wanted to fight him off and tell him to stop, but I couldn't do anything. I have no idea…

As an excited Amy Barr slips into her lingerie ahead of seeing her best friend Emily, she can't help smiling. Her night ahead will include cooking a delicious meal of chicken wings alongside a few glasses of wine. And it'll end with Amy, 43, having mind-blowing sex with Emily's husband of five years, Darren, 33. And not to be outdone, Emily will enjoy a passionate interlude with Amy's husband, Ben, 42. It's an unusual set-up, but one that works for them. The couples have been firm friends since they met three years ago, and now they're inseparable. Amy and Emily speak and text all day, every day. They share clothes, make-up and confidences, as well as their husbands, and they can't see a reason why it will ever change. Mum…

There have been plenty of twists and turns already – and semi-professional footballer Harry Cooksley brought drama to Love Island with an unexpected love triangle. Now, Harry's friend Jack tells us who he thinks will go the distance. During a shock recoupling, Harry, 30, was picked by Shakira, 22 – seeing his current partner Sophie, 29, dumped from the island. But despite snuggling up in bed with Shakira, fans couldn't believe their eyes when the footballer ran off to the Hideaway for a night with Helena, 29. Now, Jack tells us, ‘I think he has more fun with Helena – but it seems more serious with Shakira. Shakira's got him if she wants him! I think he might regret going to the Hideaway with Helena.’ While he's stirring things up…

Often referred to as ‘human sunshine’, Jules Von Hep has spent years championing body confidence on his social media channels. But before this, he struggled for most of his life with a negative body image. It was only through his work that he had a lightbulb moment that helped him discover true confidence. As an A-list tanner, Jules worked with celebrities and Victoria's Secret models, but he noticed most of his clients would apologise about their bodies before a spray tan. ‘I realised we are conditioned to hate the way we look,’ he explains. ‘After I left each client, I never remembered the shape of their body, I remembered how they made me feel. That's when I had a lightbulb moment; it's not about how we look, it's about how…

She's once again left fans concerned over her appearance, with a new Instagram video leaving them alarmed over her ‘taut’ and ‘creepy’ face. And Katie Price's followers have reiterated their fears that she's gone overboard with weight-loss aids such as the Ozempic jab – which she has previously denied using. SELF-SABOTAGE As the 47-year-old took to social media to promote a range of CBD oil, some of her 2.7million Instagram followers flocked to the comments section to air their worried thoughts on the former glamour model's appearance. One wrote, ‘She looks like a walking corpse – someone needs to intervene’, while a second added, ‘This is heartbreaking – she isn't OK, she needs some support, and harsh support at that! She's in self-sabotage without even realising.’ A third worried follower…

She's looking and feeling better than ever after dropping an incredible five stone – and Fern Britton is ready to complete her transformation by finding her Mr Right. Talking about her dramatic makeover, TV icon Fern, 67, insisted she's lost the weight ‘naturally’ by cutting out sugar from her diet, taking part in gym classes at 6am and stopping smoking and drinking after having a health wake-up call. She admitted during a recent interview that when her surgeon told her she needed a shoulder replacement, she thought, ‘I need to get my life back on track. I need to stop smoking, stop drinking, get eating under control and stop lying in bed feeling sorry for myself.’ And a source tells Closer that Fern – who starred on last year's Celebrity…

Stacey Solomon looked incredible in paparazzi pictures from her recent trip to Lake Como. But Closer can reveal that the TV personality, 35, has been working hard to not only look good in her bikini, but also to get her body ready for another baby. BROODY Stacey is already mum to Zachary, 17, and Leighton, 12, from previous relationships, and shares Rex, six, Rose, three, and two-year-old Belle with her husband of almost three years, Joe Swash. And our insider reveals that the Loose Woman star is hoping to add to her brood. ‘Stacey really wants to go back to the gym and is on the hunt for a new PT,’ they say of the presenter, who recently joked that seeing cartoon character Mummy Pig have a baby had made…

When Jake and Hannah Graf watch their daughters play, they can't believe how lucky they are to be a happy family of four. It's been a long and expensive journey for the couple, who are both transgender, as their girls were conceived using Jake's eggs and donor sperm, while their surrogate, Laura, carried them. The cost has exceeded £75k, but for Jake and Hannah, parenthood is worth every penny. Jake says, ‘I'd always wanted kids but being a dad felt unattainable. Now, I couldn't be more grateful.’ The couple met in 2015, after former soldier Hannah appeared on Lorraine to speak about being trans in the military. She caught Jake's eye, so he added her on Facebook. Jake recalls, ‘We started chatting and I had an inkling something was there.’…

ADHD IS MY SUPERPOWER… I don't talk about it much, but I was diagnosed with ADHD just after lockdown. I don't take medication. Instead I've learned to work with it, not against it, understanding how my brain works and my behaviour.

How much do you spend? Somewhere around £200 to £250 – mostly because I've got a teenage son who seems to be permanently hungry. I'm a loyal M&S shopper. Their quality is consistently brilliant. Describe your daily diet… I keep it healthy and filling. Some mornings I go for full-fat Greek yogurt topped with almond powder, crushed walnuts and a handful of berries. Other days, I'll blend up a green smoothie with spinach, celery, cucumber, berries, chia seeds and kefir. I love buying the hot roast chickens from M&S for lunch, with avocado and coleslaw. Or I'll poach a couple of eggs and serve them on warm spinach with peas and crumbled feta. My son's favourite dinner is Bolognese. He'll have it with spaghetti, but I make zucchini noodles for…

The rates of sexually transmitted infections in England have hit record highs – figures show there were 400,000 new cases in 2023. The number of gonorrhoea cases alone was 85,000, the highest number since records began in 1918. Some types of gonorrhoea have now become resistant to antibiotics, giving them the nickname ‘super-gonorrhoea’. This means they need much stronger medication and – eventually – they could be untreatable. So, this new jab is really good news and has come at just the right time to help improve our sexual health. WHAT'S IN THE JAB? The gonorrhoea vaccine isn't actually a new vaccine; it's been around for decades but is normally given to babies to protect them from meningitis. The bacteria that cause meningitis, meningococcal B, are closely related to another…

They were once one of the closest and most powerful families in showbiz – but recently, the Beckhams have been going through the wringer. While eldest child Brooklyn and wife Nicola Peltz may be at loggerheads with the rest of the clan, a new feud has emerged. Now parents Victoria and David have their middle son Romeo – and his ex-girlfriend – to worry about. FIZZLED OUT The model, 22, recently split from his girlfriend of seven months Kim Turnbull, with pals saying their romance ‘fizzled out’ just three weeks after attending David's 50th birthday. And after Romeo has already seemingly moved on with German model Caroline Daur – with the pair being spotted leaving a bash at Hotel Costes in Paris last week, before going on to party at…

When Lucy Johnson* flirted with her boss Aaron* at the London bar she worked in, she had no idea it would end in violence. Lucy, 29, says, ‘I looked forward to seeing Aaron every shift and then we started to go out and socialise in a group when we weren't behind the bar. He didn't live far from me and we'd often have drinks at each other's places. He always made me laugh and we'd have a good flirt. ‘We'd kissed a few times and then one night at his place we ended up in bed together. We started having sex and it was great, but then suddenly, with no warning, Aaron put both his hands around my neck and was leaning down on me heavily. ‘I couldn't take in…

Vogue Williams has never been somebody who's been afraid to speak her mind. After finding fame on Irish reality TV in 2010, the 39-year-old has gone on to share her hilarious opinions and anecdotes with followers on social media and the listeners of her three podcasts. And now, fans will be delighted that she has put pen to paper to write her new memoir, Big Mouth. OVERSHARE Although Vogue – who shares children Theodore, five, Gigi, four, and Otto, three, with husband Spencer Matthews – is known for being frank, she admits that she had to hold back from putting absolutely everything into her book. ‘I put most things in except for things that were probably a bit of an overshare, even for me,’ she confesses. ‘I did take some…

Fans were shocked when it was revealed that James ‘Arg’ Argent had been convicted on a domestic violence charge against his ex-girlfriend, Nicoline Artursson. And last week, the former Miss Sweden, 32, released an 800-word statement in the wake of the violent attack, referring to an unnamed ex, who many believed to be Lydia Bright. And now, insiders say Lydia has been at the forefront of Arg's mind. While Nicoline accused her ex of ‘emotional manipulation’, she also spoke about being ‘deeply affected’ by Arg's ‘unresolved ties to his past’. Arg and Lydia were in an on/-off relationship for seven years until 2016, during which time they experienced many highs and lows. TRUE LOVE Just hours before the incident happened, Nicoline had cryptically asked her 32k Instagram followers for their…

Love Island viewers may have been surprised to see Helena Ford sneak off to spend a night in the Hideaway with Harry Cooksley after just two days in the villa – but her friend Amelia Goodman says what you see is what you get with the cabin crew member. Amelia tells Closer, ‘She's being 100% authentic. It's scary going onto something like Love Island; there's a lot of pressure and anxiety and I was worried how she would do under the pressure of it but, so far, she's being her natural, funny self. She's being the positive girl that I know she is.’ Although the 29-year-old shocked viewers – and Harry – when she told him she would have him ‘on all fours barking like a dog’ during their time…

She's had a rocky few years, but Lauryn Goodman says she's finally finding some peace in her life after a long period of legal battles, trolling and stress. The influencer – mum to Kairo, five, and Kinara, two – says, ‘I feel a sense that things are falling into place now and it feels good. Things feel calmer and more certain, it feels as though I have more of a direction, rather than feeling so lost.’ SINGLE PARENTING Lauryn has been dominating headlines for the last five years after it was revealed that England and AC Milan footballer Kyle Walker was the father of her son Kairo, born in 2020 while Kyle was on a break from his now-wife. It was then revealed in January last year that he was…

Add the egg whites and vanilla and stir until…

Wall know that men have it easier in many ways – and a comfortable retirement is often one of them. The gender pension gap means women have to work around 19 years extra to retire with the same pension savings as men (the average woman retires with pension savings of £69,000, compared to £205,000 for men). The pension gap isn't just about how much you take home as a salary – it's about how your life impacts your earnings over the years. ‘Taking time out to raise a family, working part-time, stepping back for caring responsibilities and even overlooked pension contributions can all quietly impact your long-term savings,’ says Camilla Esmund, Senior Manager at Interactive Investor. ‘Over time, these factors create a significant shortfall in retirement wealth – one that…
