Will Kerry finally be happy? When she swore off men last year following her husband George Kay’s arrest for assaulting her, Kerry Katona said: “I don’t think I could bring another man into my children’s lives ever again.” It seems she was right. Instead of moving on, Kerry’s been telling friends she’s grown close again to her ex, George – who was acquitted of the assault charges last month – and our exclusive pictures on p4 show them together again last week. Kerry, who’s been married three times and famously wears her heart on her sleeve, readily admits she’s been unlucky in love in the past. We hope that it’s finally time for that luck to change.…

Kim showed off her curves last week, boasting it looked like her waist had been Photoshopped. As Closer previously reported, Kim has weekly fat-freezing sessions, and we spoke to Dr Galyna Selezneva – who carries out the procedure in London at Dr Rita Rakus Clinic – who believes Kim has had it on her waist, stomach, and back. She says: “Cryolipolysis – or fat freezing, where a machine targets an area in an hour-long treatment – is safe and non-invasive. It crystallises and freezes the fat cells into a small ‘block.’ Over a period of up to three months, the body naturally eliminates it through the liver and kidneys. In my opinion Kim appears to have had her waist, stomach and her back treated.” Closer’s Mel Fallowfield recently had the…

The hype around Cheryl’s boyfriend Liam Payne’s solo career reached fever pitch last week after it was revealed he was putting ballads aside and collaborating with grime artists – news that made global headlines. In stark contrast, Justin Bieber’s shock revelation the previous week that he was going to record with Cheryl, 33, barely garnered any column inches. LEFT BEHIND As the couple prepare to work on their respective albums in LA, pals say there’s trouble brewing in paradise for the first time. Cheryl is concerned Liam’s solo album will be such a huge success that he’ll be pulled away with work and she’ll be left trailing in his wake. A source says: “Cheryl is very supportive of Liam’s career and wants the best for him. However she’s secretly paranoid…

PSYCHOLOGIST EMMA KENNY INTERVIEWED STEPH LAST YEAR FOR CLOSER. SHE SAYS: “Steph is still incredibly fragile. She’s dealing with the fallout of her volatile former relationship with Jeremy and is in the mid stages of pregnancy. “She definitely shouldn’t date while she is pregnant – or even after her baby is born. She needs to divert her attention towards her relationship with her baby. The thing about dating and new relationships is they take you away from other areas of your life and Stephanie needs to heal, be an individual, get some self-esteem and grow up a little bit. I can understand that Stephanie is feeling lonely and vulnerable – but, so far, she has not attracted good men. She has attracted disruptive ones. You attract what you feel you…

It’s been a turbulent few weeks for Lindsay Lohan after upsetting video footage of her and fiancé Egor Tarabasov fighting over a mobile phone went public. Despite publicly ending the relationship last week – stating in an interview that “no woman can be hit and stay with that person” – sources close to the troubled star claim that behind closed doors she has taken Egor back. A source says: “Lindsay seems to be terrified of being alone. Even though she slammed Egor’s behaviour, the engagement is back on. Egor even flew out to Italy – where she’s been staying – and they apologised to each other. “But it’s always been a toxic relationship. They thrive on drama and a lot of it is fuelled by alcohol. They fight and then…

Mischievous, outspoken and “try-sexual” Samantha Jones stole the show in US romantic comedy Sex And The City – and now, unbelievably, the actress behind the fictional minx, Kim Cattrall, is celebrating her 60th birthday this week. Stunning Kim looks decades younger so it’s difficult to believe she’s reached this milestone, but she reassures Closer that she doesn’t have any hang-ups about it. “I don’t see turning 60 as a big deal,” says New York-based Kim. “I mean age is just a number and I guess it’s really about how you feel; and I feel great! “I’ve had this real surge of energy recently. I feel like I’m in the best place I’ve ever been. At 60 I’m going to do whatever I feel like doing. Women are not to be…

They hit the headlines after cavorting around the Celebrity Big Brother house, and there were even claims they had sex in the bathroom last week – but Stephen Bear’s former Ex On The Beach co-star Cami Li says there’s no way he would hook up with Chloe Khan outside of the reality show. Cami, 29, who became close to Stephen, 26, when he was dating their fellow Ex On The Beach co-star Vicky Pattison last year, says it’s pure showmance. She tells Closer: “Stephen would never date Chloe in the real world – he wouldn’t even touch her! He’s hooking up with her because he’s bored in the house and he needs something to do. It’s a typical TV showmance.” Referring to Chloe’s HH-cup boobs, she adds, laughing: “Maybe he…

BODY LANGUAGE EXPERT JUDI JAMES TELLS CLOSER: “Sadly, this body language does bear all the hallmarks of a row. In the main picture, Courteney is in full rant mode. Her torso is twisted away from Johnny in an uncomfortable act of disconnect. The way she’s placed her bag on top of the napkin suggests she might be torn between staying to eat or leaving. Johnny’s raised brows and his strong eye contact signal he’s not backing down. “In the top-right photograph, Courteney is pulling a dramatic-looking pose, with her hands over her face, hiding her emotions. Johnny looks less assured with a concerned eye expression and a ‘knotting’ of the hands and legs, which suggests vulnerability. In the bottom-right picture, Courteney has moved further into cut-off mode. Johnny’s doing the…

When mum-of-four Giovanna Chirico was told her fiancé Mark Trussler had been killed in the Shoreham air disaster last August, her world fell apart. The 54-year-old window cleaner died along with 10 others when the Hawker Hunter jet – piloted by Andy Hill, 51, who miraculously survived – lost control and smashed into a busy A-road during the air show. Full-time mum Giovanna, 34 – who lives in Worthing, Sussex, with children Luke, 13, Mia, 11, Sophia, four, and Alicia, three – says: “I can’t put into words how much I miss Mark. He was the love of my life and my best friend. We should be celebrating 14 years together next month. I feel so angry he’s been taken from us. Mark’s smile could light up a room. I…

NADIYA: ‘ I’m living my dream since Bake Off’ After winning the show last year, she’s gone on to release two cookbooks, land her own food programme and make a birthday cake for the Queen – and Nadiya Hussain is the first to admit that applying for The Great British Bake Off has changed her life. “I didn’t even think I’d make it on to the show, let alone win,” she laughs. “It’s been an amazing journey. I’ve done everything I’ve ever dreamed of and I never expected any of it – I just thought my life would go back to normal after Bake Off. Taking part in the show has given me back my confidence.” And Nadiya, 31 – who’s written Nadiya’s Kitchen and Nadiya’s Bake Me A Story…

“Last year my partner James and I were paying £950 a month in rent and struggling on one income, so we decided to take over a relative’s empty holiday cottage on the Isle of Man, do it up and rent it out. James left his job as a labourer and we uprooted our children, Mia, 14, Ella, nine, and Tatun, two. We spent £2,000 renovating the place and we now live in the house next door for £500 per month in rent. Six weeks ago we also spent £1,500 setting up an e-business where we recommend reputable tradesmen to renovators and get 10 per cent of any job. It’s new so we haven’t made a penny yet. We’ve been renting out the cottage for a year and take in around…

Types are usually skin deep and based on fairy-tale nonsense we’re fed as children. Research has shown that we automatically think tall, attractive men will be intelligent, kind, successful and funny – we’re biologically programmed to assume that if it looks good, it must be good! There’s also a difference between liking blond hair, blue eyes and an athletic figure and having “pattern behaviour,” where we always fall for the wrong person. We should approach dating with our heads, as well as our hearts, and focus on the qualities we want in a person rather than just their looks. HOW TO ATTRACT THE RIGHT PERSON • BE OPEN! We don’t love someone because of their broad shoulders – that’s lust. It might be fun for a while, but you could…

Last year’s Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain is back on our screens with her very own TV show this week, the superbly titled The Chronicles Of Nadiya – where Nads travels to Bangladesh to rustle up dishes from her childhood. “It seemed like a no-brainer,” says the adorable and frankly stunning star when we caught up with her. “It was a fantastic opportunity because I haven’t been back for 10 years, the longest time I’ve ever been away – and I wanted to top up my vitamin D!” The two-part series will see Nadiya sharing meals with friends and family, learning new recipes and discovering what has changed on the food scene over there since she last visited for her wedding. “I come from a small, rural village and there…

1 THE CHRONICLES OF NADIYA WE HEART NADIYA WED 24 AUG, 9PM, BBC1 Straight after the new Great British Bake Off is last year’s lovely winner, Nadiya, with her very own show.

‘Kerry says he’s the only man who makes her happy’ She’s been in emotional turmoil for weeks over whether to take back her ex, but last week Kerry Katona was pictured together with George Kay for the first time since she accused him of assaulting her, leading to a trial that collapsed in court last month. Our exclusive pictures show George dropping Kerry, with her children Heidi, nine, and Max, eight, from a previous marriage, and their daughter, Dylan-Jorge, two, at the station before Kerry took the kids on a trip to Scotland. MORE TIME TOGETHER And pals say Kerry has secretly taken back George – who was accused of attacking Kerry and possessing a banned weapon in October but was acquitted after she withdrew her evidence. The bodybuilder…

They met when she was in Corrie and he was famed for being TOWIE’s lothario, yet fast forward three years and Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright are on very different paths. Michelle’s acting career has skyrocketed, while hubby Mark continues his successful DJ and personal appearance work, plus TV presenting roles, but pals say Mark, 29, is struggling to adjust to living in his wife’s shadow. As the marriage trouble rumours rumble, there are also reports that the pair are living increasingly separate lives due to Michelle’s filming commitments. A source says: “Mark’s from a traditional Essex family where the gender roles are quite set. It’s been difficult for him to play second fiddle in the relationship and, while he’s really proud of Michelle, he struggles being in her shadow.…

She lost a whopping 12st after having a gastric band fitted in 2010 and then had 11lbs of excess skin removed to transform her new body – but last week Tina Malone found herself in the middle of a cruel online backlash after an appearance on This Morning. CRUEL MESSAGES Tina joined Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford on the ITV show to discuss the child obesity epidemic sweeping the UK, but despite the heated debate, the viewers’ attention seemed to be firmly fixed on her new look. One critic Tweeted: “What a hot mess, she looks awful” while another added: “What has happened to Tina Malone? She looks like a skeleton.” But size 8 Tina has hit back and tells Closer nothing the trolls can say will bring her down.…

In 2010, Chanelle Hayes, 28, split from footballer Matthew Bates just three months into her first pregnancy. She went on to date Jade Goody’s widower, Jack Tweed, when she was five months pregnant and they had an on/off relationship for three years – and were still exchanging bitter social media messages this year. She says: “Dating while pregnant was a horrible experience – I was all over the place emotionally and I was vulnerable. If I could go back, I’d do things differently. When you’re single and expecting a baby, you go through a lot of emotions – it was hard to know whether my feelings were genuine or if I was just scared to be alone and I didn’t want my baby to grow up without a dad. Pregnancy…

She’s had a history of high-profile turbulent relationships, most notably her year-long romance with DJ Samantha Ronson. Now Lindsay has been criticised by Sam’s mother, who has branded the star’s behaviour as “childlike.” Socialite Ann Dexter-Jones said she was forced to intervene in their relationship after attending a hotel opening in Dubai and witnessing Lindsay having a meltdown because Sam, now 39, wasn’t paying her enough attention. Ann says: “Without any warning, Lindsay flung herself on to the carpet and started to roll around screaming like a child. I took Lindsay aside and told her not to make a spectacle of herself.” Lindsay and Sam – who have since branded their relationship as “mutually toxic” since splitting in 2009 – were rarely out of the headlines for their late-night public…

NOT BEING TEMPTED TO PLAY SEX AND THE CITY’S SAMANTHA JONES AGAIN: “It was time for me to move on. As sad as it was and as much as I wanted it to go on, I felt that I needed more challenges. I didn’t feel that we’d left anything unsaid.” NOT TAKING THINGS TOO SERIOUSLY: “Don’t ever take things to heart. I always remember my character Samantha’s great quote in the show, which was: ‘If you are worried about what everybody says about you then you would never leave the house.’ That is so true.” HER FOUR-LEGGED FRIEND: “I can’t remember my best kiss but the best cuddles are from my cat Kobi. She’s 18 years old – which in our years is almost 100.”…

While Chloe Khan hit the headlines last week after pole-dancing topless and reportedly having sex with Stephen, Geordie Shore star Marnie Simpson clearly didn’t want to be outshone. The attention-seeking reality star embraced full-frontal nudity and flashed her private parts at her housemates last week, while her squeeze Lewis Bloor, 26, shouted: “Put your pom-pom away!” Now her pal, BGT star Francine Lewis, 40 – who met Marnie, 24, through mutual friends two years ago – says it’s all part of her plan to win the show. She says: “Marnie hasn’t got a larger-than-life personality like Charlotte Crosby, Vicky Pattison and the other girls on Geordie Shore so she’s using her pretty looks and body to grab the headlines. “She won’t be embarrassed about people seeing her fully nude –…

She’s recently been showing off her amazing size 8 figure in a number of skimpy outfits – and now insiders tell Closer Britney Spears is looking for a serious relationship, and her dad Jamie is stepping in to help. Two months ago, Closer reported that the singer, 34, was seeing a mystery businessman, who helped her drop from a size 10 to an 8 after they worked out together, but now the romance has fizzled out A source says: “Britney wants a new boyfriend. She doesn’t want to waste any time, so her dad is helping to vet potentials. She’s joked to her friends that he’s holding ‘boyfriend auditions. “He’s talking to several people in the media industry about potential matches for her and will do a series of face-to-face…

It’s been almost a year since the contestants put down their whisks for the final time and Nadiya Hussain was crowned the winner of The Great British Bake Off . But it’s time to settle down with your scones and pastries once more because the Bake Off is back next Wednesday (24 August). “When a new series starts I’m always thrilled to walk into the tent and see everyone,” show judge Mary Berry says. “We had a few disasters at the beginning this year,” adds co-judge Paul Hollywood. “I think we had a lot of nerves, but they soon settled down.” This season sees the bakers working their way through 65 kilos of chocolate, 180 kilos of flour, and a whopping 85 kilos of butter. They cracked 1,800 large eggs…

Where do you shop? Anywhere I can find good quality food; after all, you are what you eat. Waitrose is great for picking up bits during the week and I love going to Whole Foods for specialist items. It’s easy to spend a fortune in there, but it’s worth it for the quality. What is your typical daily diet? I start the day with lemon and water, then I have a fruit medley of melon, grapes, strawberries and apple. For lunch I’ll have something Mediterranean like a tomato and mozzarella salad, and dinner is salmon, baby potatoes, courgette, onion and peppers, all drizzled with an Italian dressing. I snack on dried fruit or nuts to keep me going. Is there anything you refuse to eat? Burgers and hot dogs, or…

Nashville has a mix of music and drama. You’re a musician and actor, any preference? I’m lucky because in Nashville I get to do a bit of everything.

• Insiders reveal the siblings’ outrageous and difficult behaviour • Pals say Kanye has made Kim believe she’s ‘untouchable’ • Kris has turned the family into ‘insecure fame-obsessed monsters’ They shot to fame sharing their dramatic lives on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, but at the core of the show was a very tight-knit family who knew how to have fun and laugh at themselves. However, it appears the naturally likeable characters, who attracted millions of fans worldwide – netting over £150 million in the process – have become “divas,” with the main offenders being Kim, Khloé and their brother Rob. Insiders reveal momager Kris Jenner has encouraged them to become increasingly volatile to boost flagging ratings, but pals say it could backfire and damage the already fragile family brand.…

‘Jordan won’t listen to her team or her family’ Her crazy antics over the years have raised more than a few eyebrows. But after reinventing herself from glamour girl Jordan into loving mum-of-five Katie Price, it seemed she’d successfully distanced herself from her racy past. Yet just as it appeared Jordan had put her wild ways behind her, she shockingly reverted back last week when footage emerged of her on holiday in Mallorca, with reports she mocked ex-hubby Peter Andre’s manhood during a drunken karaoke rant, made a jokey reference to blindness despite her 14-year-old disabled son Harvey being blind, and insulted holidaymakers. DIVA BEHAVIOUR The crude drunken outburst came just a day after Jordan, 38, posted – then later deleted – a topless shot of her new surgically enhanced…

There’s little Steph Davis could do to shock – she’s already shared almost every detail of her bitter break-up with Jeremy McConnell, as well as pouring her heart out on social media as she battles with being single during her pregnancy. But, last week, the 23-year-old actress – who is 18 weeks pregnant with a baby boy and insists Jeremy’s the father – dropped a bombshell, revealing she’d been asked out. She said: “I was worried no man would want to get involved with me now I’m going to be a single mum, but I’ve had quite a few ask me out on dates already!” LOVING ATTENTION A source reveals: “Steph is feeling really vulnerable and lonely while pregnant – she’s moving house and preparing for the baby and never…

Surgery-obsessed pair Pixee Fox and Justin Jedlica will stop at nothing to achieve their plastic look, spending £380k and sacrificing their love lives in a bid to become the real-life Barbie and Ken. Model Pixee, 26, has had more than 15 ops, including removing six ribs, four boob jobs and lipo – all paid for by savings and male fans she connected with on plastic surgery forums and fundraising sites. While Justin, 35, has had over 340 cosmetic procedures, including five rhinoplasties, plus shoulder, back, cheek and bum implants. But it’s come at another price – Justin’s three-year marriage broke down, while Pixee is determined not to let a relationship get in the way of her extreme plastic surgery plans. DREAM BODIES The looks-obsessed duo met while filming a TV…

They were together for 14 years before he married and then split up with Amber Heard, but now Johnny Depp and his ex Vanessa Paradis are talking again – and his family want a reunion. Amber filed for divorce after allegations Johnny has been “physically and emotionally abusive towards her.” And last week reports claimed she “cried and screamed,” refusing to testify against him. Vanessa has already spoken out to defend Johnny. And now reports have surfaced they are back in regular contact and his family are keen for the couple to rekindle their relationship. Last week Heather Rassel – who was previously married to Johnny’s nephew Billy – revealed: “Johnny and Vanessa are best friends, even now. Vanessa has been there for him; she will always stand by him.…

TRADE SECRETS… Celebrity make-up artist Adam Burrell lets us in on a simple trick to transform your pout: “The quickest way to make your lips look fuller is to blend in a little concealer two to three shades darker than your natural skin tone just below your bottom lip.

THE MOVES She’s known for her hourglass figure, but self-confessed gym hater Sofia Vergara works hard to achieve her famous curves. The Modern Family star exercises for an hour, three times a week – doing squats, spinning and cycling with celeb trainer Gunnar Peterson. She says: “I’m not obsessed with exercise but I do it when I can and I’ve accepted that it’s good for my health.” THE FOODS The mum-of-one doesn’t believe in diets and tries to eat healthily. Typically, breakfast is muesli with Greek yoghurt, oats, chia seeds, nuts and blueberries; lunch is vegetable soup, and dinner is fresh fish and salad. But the Columbian actress admits she has a sweet tooth, saying: “I love cake! For me and my son, buying cake at the grocery store is…

It’s the time of year where all of our usual food rules go out the window: food is either burnt to a cinder or under-cooked. Our suspect cooking skills see cases of food poisoning almost double during the summer months, so if you want to avoid tummy trouble here are my golden rules… WASH SALADS An E. coli breakout has killed two and infected more than 150 people in the UK this summer, and experts believe the source could be unwashed salad leaves. Symptoms include bloody diarrhoea, stomach cramps and occasionally fever. The advice is to thoroughly wash leaves, unless you buy “washed and ready to eat,” but I would still give those leaves a quick rinse just to be sure. In fact you should wash anything you’re going to…

“MY POCKET MONEY WAS… I still get £20 a week from my nan! When I was younger I’d go to Primark every few months and buy as many clothes as I could. MY FIRST JOB WAS… I worked in my mum and dad’s Post Office every Saturday. I still do now if they need cover. MY BIGGEST IMPULSE PURCHASE WAS… My dark green iridescent Mulberry handbag, it cost £1,200, but I use it all the time. THE LAST THING I BOUGHT WAS… I had a splurge in Topshop on Beyoncé’s Ivy Park sportswear – I spent around £200. EVER MADE A FINANCIAL MISTAKE? Spending £22k on my BMW car! I could have saved so much money buying it secondhand. ARE YOU A SPENDER OR A SAVER? My mum and dad…
