After cutting ties with the royal family and moving to the US in 2020, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have seemingly been living the American dream in California. But despite now socialising with the likes of the Kardashians and Serena Williams, sources tell Closer that behind the scenes, the Duke of Sussex, 41, is feeling ‘lost and lonely’ in Montecito – where the couple live with their two children, Archie, six, and four-year-old Lilibet. ADRIFT An insider says, ‘Prince Harry has never felt more adrift than he does now. He's devoted to the children, yet quietly wrestling with a sense of displacement that has only grown deeper as the year draws to a close. ‘Harry's world has shrunk dramatically. While the public sees a man smiling through appearances and charity…

Tom Read Wilson has quickly become an I'm A Celeb..! favourite, with fans gushing over him as a ‘really lovely and kind human being’. Despite his trademark cheerfulness, the Celebs Go Dating star, 39, was moved to tears on entering the ‘grimmer camp’ last week, but viewers loved him even more when he gave Shona McGarty heartfelt break-up advice. After ex-EastEnders star Shona shared her hopes of marriage and a family, Tom told her, ‘Focus on you now, what turns you on in your talents. People in your orbit will celebrate you and your orbit will grow, and one day by accident somewhere in that orbit will be that person.’ Now, his good friend Ben Pulsford shares, ‘With Tom, what you see is what you get – and what the…

Christmas used to be the hardest time of the year for single mum of three Lizzy Groombridge. She struggled to afford gifts for her kids and often felt guilty. She'd sell her belongings to afford presents, and her kitchen cupboards were bare, so she was forced to visit her local food bank, hoping they could help her family get by. But her festive fortunes changed in May 2023 when Lizzy joined the adult subscription platform OnlyFans and starting selling pictures and videos as well as her used underwear. Now the content creator, from Cornwall, rakes in around £7,000 per month, and is able to spoil her family rotten. Lizzy says, ‘I know it's not a traditional way to make money, but making my kids happy is the only thing that…

Jeff Brazier and Kate Dwyer's shock split came to light last week after seven years of marriage, leaving fans in shock. Sources now reveal the details behind their breakup. As one insider explains to Closer, ‘Kate called time on the marriage after feeling like it wasn't going in the right direction – she felt there wasn't growth and they just kept going round in circles with the same problems – it just wore her down.’ Although PR director Kate, 35, is ‘a key player herself’ in the industry and understands its demands, she couldn't help but ‘find herself resenting the non-stop drama’. Parenting has always been challenging for Jeff, 46 – dad to Bobby, 22, and Freddy, 21, with late Big Brother star Jade Goody – and that took a…

She's set to step back into the primetime spotlight next year as the new host of Strictly in what's been tipped as her big comeback. But while her on-screen future looks brighter, insiders claim that Holly Willoughby is feeling the strain as her media company, Roxy Media, faces an ongoing battle over an unpaid £377k tax bill. LOWEST EBB Earlier this month, the High Court dismissed a petition to shut down the business – founded in 2008 by the presenter, 44, and her producer husband, Dan Baldwin, 50 – but the debt will now be handled through the Tax Tribunal. And insiders tell Closer that the situation is pushing the mum-of-three to her lowest ebb. A source says, ‘Holly is understandably extremely stressed. She's trying to put on a brave…

How much do you spend? Probably £70-£90 a week. It's honestly terrible, but I have a lovely Waitrose right beside my flat, and it's become my downfall. I tell myself it's just for a few bits, but somehow I always leave with a basket full of snacks and iced coffees I definitely didn't need! Describe your daily diet… Breakfast is always a yogurt bowl. I've been obsessed ever since I was in the Love Island villa! I'll throw in fruit, granola, maybe a drizzle of honey if I'm feeling fancy. For lunch, I'm a creature of habit and usually go for a classic Caesar salad – it's fresh, easy and you honestly can't beat it. I'm quite a picky eater and always on the go, so dinner totally depends on…

If you dread hitting the high street pre-Christmas, you aren't alone, with 32% of Brits disliking crowded shops, according to research from Klarna. Other common presentbuying worries include finding the perfect item, with a third stressing that what they've given won't feel ‘valuable enough’. This gifting guilt needs to stop – particularly as 60% of respondents said they'd rather receive something sentimental (even more reason to try our craft tips!). Only 5% said they were bothered about expensive presents. It's also worth taking time before you tap your card, as while three-quarters of us set a festive budget, almost half (46%) say they go over it. Meanwhile, younger generations are turning to AI for help with gift planning, with 24% of Gen Z and 17% of Millennials using AI assistants…

She recently showed off her new tattoo, but as she shared clips of the inking process, Katie Price opened up on her struggles, telling fans she was trying to find the motivation to get through the ‘pain’. And as she flaunted the large floral inking on her bottom and upper thigh, the former glamour model, 47 – who has worried fans recently with pictures of her shrinking frame – admitted, ‘The Price is done.’ In the Snapchat video, she said, ‘I am using all my strength to get through this but my body is like “nah, don't want anymore”. It's like when you run a marathon and you're done and your legs just go…’ She added, ‘Trying to motivate myself to get this finished through the pain.’ Now, a source…

With patriar Martin in the Australian jungle for I'm A Celebrity! and kids Harleymoon and Roman also on TV screens on Celebrity Race Across The World, it's been a quiet time of late at the Kemps’ north London home, with matriarch Shirlie holding the fort. ‘It's been one in, one out at our house. My mum's held it together pretty well so far. She's really proud of all of us,’ Harleymoon tells Closer. CANDID Martin, 64, has won a new generation of fans and supporters with his stint in the jungle. He has made candid revelations about his sex life with pop singer Shirlie – his wife of 37 years – as well as his battles with brain tumours, and how he was nearly offered the role of James Bond.…

Adding a bow to another present, Leeanne Clay places it carefully on the pile, immediately thinking of a family that would appreciate them. Leeanne runs the charity Windmills, which provides bereavement support to children and young people when someone significant in their life is dying or has died. She runs Windmills with Zara Toussaint, who she met when they were both nurses, and says Christmas is always the toughest time of year. Leeanne, 49, who lives in Stoke on Trent, says, ‘Families are under enormous emotional and financial pressure. We're a small charity and struggle to provide for everyone – that's when Mission Christmas becomes a lifeline. The funding has allowed us to provide gifts to children who might otherwise have none, giving families a brief moment of joy and…

She took the helm of a fly-on-the-wall docuseries earlier in the autumn, which explored her journey from finding fame as Posh Spice to her career as an illustrious fashion designer. But now, an insider reveals that Victoria Beckham's brand has been plagued by a new financial crisis – including ‘continued liabilities, widening losses and a negative net worth’ – which has resulted in her looking to sell. The decision has left Victoria, 51, feeling humiliated, particularly in the wake of her Netflix three-parter. A source says, ‘Anyone reading the paperwork can see the pressure. This isn't unusual for luxury brands, but Victoria's label has carried that burden for a long time. People are starting to wonder how much longer the family can keep supporting it. ‘Victoria is devastated – the…

GEORGIA KOUSOULOU Mum-of-two Georgia is trading in chilly weather for some winter sun. The former TOWIE star often escapes on holiday with husband Tommy Mallet, 33, and their two children. In a recent snap, Georgia, 34, was all smiles on board a boat in a brown ruffled bikini, lovingly holding her super-cute one-year-old daughter Gigi close. COURTENEY COX Actress Courteney, 61, and her daughter Coco Arquette, 21, recently escaped to the Bahamas for a fun-filled beach day with friends.

ELLA RAE WISE Joining the list is Ella Rae Wise, who took a trip to Dubai, one of the…

When Charmon Isom and her husband, Akeem, returned home from a magical day of Christmas shopping in December 2023, their four excited children ran inside while they discussed where to hide the presents. Then, shockingly, just minutes later, flames ripped through the family's living room after their Christmas tree caught fire. The couple's boys, DJ, 11, and Little, six, managed to escape out of the garage but, tragically, Annie, seven, and Aalijah, two, were trapped – and didn't survive. The cause of the blaze still remains unknown, but the fire service suspect it was started by a spark from faulty electrics in the plug the tree lights were connected to. LASTING LEGACY Now, two years on from her children's tragic deaths, Charmon wants to raise awareness and encourage people to…

MOVEMENT KEEPS MY MIND CLEAR… I've learned that moving my body is the best way to take care of my mental health. Whether it's a proper workout or just a walk outside, fresh air always does wonders for my mind. I HAVE A NIGHTTIME RITUAL… Before bed, I take magnesium, use a lavender pillow spray and sink into the world's most comfortable mattress. Honestly, it's one of my best investments. Those small things make bedtime something I actually look forward to. SELF-CARE IS ABOUT THE SMALL THINGS… A long bath, a collagen face mask and writing out a few to-do lists helps me stay calm and organised. It's my way of creating a bit of order – and a bit of luxury – in the chaos of everyday life. •…

Victoria Beckham's daily life is worlds away from mine, but there's something we have in common: both of our partners snore. Loudly. Snoring is often seen as a bit of a joke, but it can have a serious impact on your health – whether you're the snorer or the person having to put up with it. Certain things can make snoring worse, especially drinking alcohol. And with Christmas party season now in full swing, can you get a good night's sleep if you share your bed with a snorer… or David Beckham? Snoring is essentially caused by some sort of obstruction to your airways. As you breath in and out, the obstruction vibrates and makes that classic snoring sound. This doesn't mean something is stuck in your throat. An obstruction…

Despite Lisa Riley's confession that I'm A Celeb..! host Ant McPartlin is ‘very juicy’, the Emmerdale star is still loved up with ‘Al’ – her fiancé of eight years who she met back in 2014.
