It’s awful to see Kerry so broken after announcing her doomed marriage to George is finally over. She was so desperate to feel loved and secure, she tried to work through impossible problems, but eventually things dramatically imploded. We hope more than anything that she doesn’t go looking for another relationship yet. She deserves happiness, but needs time on her own first. PS This week, we’ve devoted our entire style section to incredible supermarket buys. Turn to page 65 for affordable, gorgeous fashion, beauty and home inspiration!…

With each of her husbands, Kerry tried to convince the world that life was rosy – despite that not always being the case. Closer’s psychologist Emma Kenny says: “Even when her marriages are crumbling, Kerry paints a rosy picture. With George, right up until their break-up she was insisting they were madly in love and she was happier than she had ever been. But it may be because she’s living in denial and wants to believe everything will be OK. She’s so desperate for a happy ending, it’s like she’s praying for a miracle.” BRIAN MCFADDEN Months after their 2002 wedding, it came out that Brian had cheated with a lapdancer on his stag do. Kerry forgave him and, after winning I’m A Celeb! in 2004,…

She’s yo-yo’d between a size 8 and a 16 since she shot to fame on TOWIE in 2010, but last week Lauren Goodger appeared to be finally beating her body demons as she emerged from a gym in Essex looking svelte and toned after shedding almost 3st since February. And insiders say after years of failed faddy diets, Lauren is thrilled with her slender body. A source reveals: “It’s been hard work, but Lauren says she feels like a new woman, inside and out. She feels she’s got her body back and is finally becoming the person she’s always wanted to be.” Lauren vowed to slim down for good in February this year after unflattering snaps of her size 16 bikini body surfaced. Speaking at the time, Lauren, 29, said:…

Gill Thompson, 58, a self-employed book keeper, says: “My brother David died two years ago aged 59 and I still can’t come to terms with it – it was senseless, for the sake of just over £70 a week. He’d worked for 30 years, in the army and as an engineer for BT. Then he worked as a carer for our mother with dementia for eight years. It took its toll on his mental health and afterwards he couldn’t find work. “David was sanctioned for missing two appointments at the job centre and was left with no money. He couldn’t afford food and his electricity card was out of credit, so the fridge where he should have kept his diabetes insulin chilled wasn’t working. Three weeks after his benefits were…

A survey last week revealed 62 per cent of women secretly harbour a desire to be a housewife. I have to say, I’m not surprised – I think it’s a figure that reflects how a lot of women feel. However, the fact they “secretly” harbour a desire shows that women feel like this is something to be ashamed of and they can’t say openly. I’m a mum to two boys [Bay, eight, and Oscar, six] and I’m not a housewife, but I think every woman should be able to choose the lifestyle that’s right for her and her family – whether that’s working or staying at home. I also feel that motherhood should be valued by society and women who have children – whether they choose to work or not…

CALLUM TO THE RESCUE While many boys of his age are sat in front of an X Box playing Call Of Duty – 12 year-old Callum Underdown is answering the call of the wild. The animal-mad schoolboy spends every waking hour – and every penny of his pocket money – on running a wildlife rescue centre. Callum has rescued over 100 abandoned and injured animals – at first bringing them back to the family home, but after his menagerie grew too big he set up a rescue centre on a nearby patch of farmland, which his parents rented for him in Suffolk. Poignantly, his mum Sarah revealed that Callum began his mission not long after he was affected by witnessing a road crash in which a motorcyclist died. She says:…

Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris haven’t been spotted together in public since he went to her LA concert on 25 August, and pals say she wants to cool things off. The American singer, 25, and Scottish DJ, 31, have been dating since February, but sources say their relationship has been troubled since Calvin was photographed coming out of the In The Thai massage parlour in LA last month. A source says: “Taylor was humiliated by the speculation surrounding the pictures – even though she believes Calvin was totally innocent. “She feels she got serious with Calvin quickly and wants to cool off for a bit – she wants to hang out with her girlfriends now.” The source adds: “Calvin is smitten and wants to get back on track. He wants…

Strictly Come Dancing has spawned its fair share of relationships and love scandals – but there’s no chance of contestant Jamelia waltzing off with her dance partner Tristan MacManus. In an exclusive interview with Closer, the TV presenter and mum-of-two – who’s been dating up-and-coming actor Jean-Louis Pascal for four months – says: “Tristan and I are mates and every time I have to look at him on the dance floor, I find it hilarious. There’s certainly no gazing into one another’s eyes. That is one of my biggest challenges. “I don’t fancy him, although he is a good-looking guy. I haven’t met his wife yet but he talks about her all the time. It’s so sweet and you can tell he is so in love.” The star, 34, is…

BTTF In the film, video glasseswere used to watch TV withouta screen. BTTF Marty received videophonecalls through a TV. BTTF There was a scene featuringMarty standing outside a cinemathat was screening Jaws 19 . BTTF Marty had a hoverboard –and we all wanted one! BTTF Flying cars were so common,roads were no longer needed. 2015 They aren’t used in the same way as in thefilm, but the concept bears a resemblance toGoogle Glass, a wearable hands-free computer. 2015 Skype and Facetime have prettymuch nailed this. 2015 Although there have only ever been twosequels, Universal have released a fake Jaws 19 trailer to coincide with BTTF’s anniversary. 2015 Pro skateboarder Tony Hawk is in theprocess of promoting a prototype. 2015 We are no closer to seeing flying carsthan we were in…

Hunky Pete Wicks is hoping he can win over potential new flame Jess Wright’s family – including her brother Mark. He says: “I’m already in there with Nanny Pat. She loves me and I love her sausage plait. I don’t see why I couldn’t impress Mark. I’m a nice, normal guy. Jess is a lovely girl so we’ll have to see what happens.” And despite a brief romance with Verity Chapman, Pete insists they no longer speak, saying: “I think she’s a nice girl deep down, but it’s hidden behind a mask of vileness. We didn’t really fall out but she’s after what she can get, I think.” TOWIE continues Sundays and Wednesdays, 10pm on ITVBe…

At 62, Siobhan Burt would be forgiven for wanting to take life easy, but the florist loves nothing better than swinging with younger men. Since attending her first swingers’ party five years ago, single Siobhan says she’s been having the best sex of her life – and insists she enjoys it more now than she did in her 20s. Size 22 Siobhan, from London, says: “I didn’t enjoy sex when I was younger and until five years ago I hadn’t been intimate with a man for years, but swinging has boosted my confidence and now my sex life is better than ever.” CONFIDENCE BOOST Siobhan adds: “I do glamour modelling now, too. I love dressing up in sexy lingerie or stripping naked to flaunt my 42G chest. I never would…

Emma: How have you felt in the years since Jade’s death? Jackiey: Losing a child isn’t something you ever get over. I still have bad days – sometimes I just wake up crying. It’s really hard; it’s a pain that never goes away. I think about Jade every single minute of the day and the only thing that makes it better is seeing Bobby and Freddy [Jade’s sons with Jeff Brazier, now 12 and 11]. When I’m not with them, I am so depressed. E: Do you see them a lot? J: Yes. And Jeff and I have a good relationship now. We used to clash, but I have to say he’s a wonderful father to those boys. E: What’s your life like now? J: I live on my own…

KHAKI EYES Make-up is all about colour so, unlike designer clobber, we can steal A-list looks without needing the exact products and the supermarkets are a great place to bulk up your beauty bag. Melting our hearts this week is Kate Mara’s khaki liner – contemporary but wearable. Layer eyelids with a golden brown eyeshadow. Then use a khaki liner to etch along the lower lashes, right up to each end and inside the waterline. Crimp the lashes and apply lengthening mascara. Clean up under your eyes with a cotton bud and reapply a little concealer if needed for a flawless finish.…

Angelina Jolie has coconut oil for breakfast – 1tsp mixed with cereal. Miranda Kerr uses it as a salad dressing and adds it to green tea and Gwyneth Paltrow is partial to a spot of “oil pulling,” where you swish coconut oil in your mouth, to keep teeth and gums healthy. “I use coconut oil a lot,” she says. “On my face, on my skin and in my cooking.” But it’s not just celebs who’ve gone crazy over it. Last year, UK sales of coconut oil went up by 40 per cent. “Coconut oil is super-nutritious, easy to digest, amazing for energy and stops you having a sugar rush,” says celeb cook Jasmine Hemsley. Coconut oil can also help you lose weight. “The ‘good fats’ in it are broken down…

If you were an animal, what would you be? A lion because I’m a Leo. I’d also quite enjoy being leader of the pack. Where is your happy place? My kitchen, I love it. I hate big supermarkets – I can’t cope with all the aisles. What was your earliest memory as a child? Getting a nail stuck in my knee when I was two in my family home in Australia. I cried a lot.

“A few years ago, a close pal was having serious money issues so I lent her £14k – £6,500 from my recent divorce settlement and the rest from a loan as I had a better credit rating. She agreed to cover the monthly repayments of £230.15, but stopped paying after 10 months. I’d also let her use my credit card to get her over a tough patch and she ran up £7k in two months. I cut it up, but I needed a loan to pay it off. It was a stupid mistake and I now have £15k of debt and we no longer speak. As well as my full-time job, I work for Avon and make £50 a month to help clear my debt and for treats like takeaways,…

WHEN IN ROME LOVE GONE WRONG FRI 23 OCT, 11:55PM, BBC1 Unlucky-in-love Beth (Kristen Bell) is in Rome (as the title may suggest) and various incidents lead to her scooping up some coins from a supposed "fountain of love." Suddenly, she’s got the chaps falling at her feet – which actually isn’t a good thing (one is Danny DeVito), so then she has to try to break the curse to stop them mithering her. BACK TO THE FUTURE I, II AND III 30 YEARS SINCE IT BEGAN… WED 21 OCT, 4:30PM, 6:50PM, 10:30PM, ITV2 Today is most significant for Back To The Future fans, as 21 October 2015 was the date Marty and Doc travelled to in Back To The Future II .

She’s suffered her fair share of drama and heartbreak but, last week, Kerry Katona’s notoriously troubled life reached an all-time low after she was forced to end her volatile relationship with third husband George Kay. The couple’s 13-month marriage came to a shock ending when George was arrested on suspicion of assaulting Kerry and being in possession of a Taser gun – allegedly after a drinking session at the couple’s Sussex home – reportedly leaving the mum-of-five with cuts and bruises to her face and arms. A spokesperson for the 35-year-old star said: “It is with deep sadness that Kerry announces the end of her marriage to George Kay. Her focus now will be on her gorgeous children.” Insiders say devastated Kerry – mum to Molly, 14, Lilly-Sue, 12, Heidi,…

On 7 May 2014, Jordan broke one of the biggest showbiz bombshells of the year – outing husband Kieran Hayler for his seven-month affair with best pal Jane Pountney while she was pregnant. Kieran later confessed he’d also cheated with Jordan’s friend Chrissy Thomas and insisted he was a sex addict. At the time, Jordan seemed uncertain about the pair’s future, admitting: “He needs to prove himself first.” But nearly a year and a half on from the scandal, pals say the tables have well and truly turned. Mum-of-five Jordan – who admitted she struggled during the latter stages of pregnancy with Bunny due to stress – was pictured out last week flaunting her tiny figure and sleek new image. Meanwhile, Kieran – former member of stripper troupe Adonis Cabaret…

CLOSER’S PSYCHOLOGIST EMMA KENNY SAYS: ”I think Lauren had hit rock bottom both emotionally and physically before this diet started – once you do that, you either sink or swim. After TOWIE and her very public split with Mark, she had a lot to shake off. Clearly, she’s had enough time to reflect on the past and she’s picked herself up and realised she deserves to be healthy and happy. Health starts with the mind, then the body follows. So once she believed she could do it, she’ll have found a diet and exercise plan that worked for her and that’s important – different ways suit different people. She’s documenting her success on Twitter and Instagram and getting a lot of positive feedback, which will help her, as it reinforces…

Kim Kardashian has broken her silence on her pregnancy, admitting: “It’s the worst experience of my life.” Writing on her blog, the seven-months-pregnant star added: “I don’t enjoy one moment of it and I don’t understand people who do enjoy it.” And despite flaunting her figure in a series of sexy outfits, Kim, 34, confessed: “I don’t feel sexy either – I feel insecure and most of the time I just feel gross.” Now insiders say Kim has confided in friends that she feels her mum, Kris Jenner, 59, and hubby Kanye West, 38, had “abandoned her” by jetting off to Paris Fashion Week a fortnight ago, just when she was feeling at her lowest. A pal says: “She’s very emotional – and freaking out over the upcoming birth, and…

He wowed the audience during the Boys’ Six Chair Challenge at the weekend, going through to the Judges’ Houses round after being picked by mentor Nick Grimshaw. And Simon Lynch says he’s been blown away by the kindness of the judging panel – particularly show boss Simon Cowell. Simon, 23, says: “During the Six Chair Challenge, tensions ran high. The first batch of auditions weren’t going down that well so Simon and Nick came backstage to give us a pep talk and motivate us to bring our A-game. I was trying hard to listen to Simon’s advice but he’s this megastar so I was so nervous! He was really nice though and smelt amazing – like power. Whatever aftershave he was wearing, I want to buy some.” Another judge who’s…

“I USUALLY WAKE UP AT 6.30AM… The first thing I do is a quick run – just 15 minutes around the block. Then I come home, have a shower, then take the kids to school or activities and have a cup of coffee in a very lovely local café where quite a few other mums hang out. I LOVE TO COOK... At the weekends I enjoy cooking and having dinner parties. It’s a great way to relax. I also love going “antiquing” – walking around the auction rooms in Devon and seeing if they’ve got any treasures. I ALWAYS TRY TO FINISH FILMING BY 4.30PM… So I can pick up my children from school. I usually pick them up once or twice a week and I love being able to…

He raised eyebrows when he was seen holding hands with estranged wife Vogue Williams last week after leaving a party together. Now pals say Brian McFadden, who still lives with Vogue in London despite announcing their spilt three months ago, is desperate to get back together with her. A source says: “Agreeing to end things with Vogue has made Brian realise how much he loves her. He’s making a big effort to show he’s still committed to their relationship – Vogue always thought he didn’t give her enough TLC. “She only wants to give things another go if they can get their spark back. She feels they grew apart over the past year and she’s not sure they can just go back to how they were.” The couple got together…

Last week, Strictly Come Dancing contestant Jay McGuiness, 25, from The Wanted, and his married dance partner Aliona Vilani, 31, sparked controversy when they were pictured putting on a cosy display as they waited for a taxi. The couple were spotted cuddling up outside an awards do and the affection between them was clear to see as the singer wrapped the Russian dancer up in his blazer. But after the pictures emerged, Jay was quick to dismiss rumours of a romance, making it clear that, although he is single, Aliona is “happily married” to sales director Vincent Kavanagh and insisting the programme was a “dance show, not a dating show.” However, their intimate and emotionally charged dances on Strictly have done nothing to dampen further speculation around their relationship. So,…

Hugh Grant shocked fans in 2011 when he became a father to daughter Tabitha with Chinese receptionist Tinglan Hong, following a “fleeting” affair. The actor then had son John with Swedish TV producer Anna Eberstein in September 2012 – just 12 weeks before Tinglan gave birth to his third child, son Felix, in December the same year. And, last week, Anna, 35, was spotted in London with a bump, sparking speculation the actor was set to become a father for the fourth time. While the news had not been confirmed when Closer went to press, insiders insist Hugh, 55, has embraced his role as a family man – despite the bizarre set up. A source reveals: “Hugh loves being a father. He’s told friends he’s not committed romantically to either…

THE PERSON I WOULD TURN TO IN A CRISIS IS... Myself. I don’t turn to other people. I’m my own crisis manager. I’m self-sufficient and resilient and I don’t rely on other people. I can trust myself and I trust my own advice and that means I’ve only got myself to blame if things go wrong. A SONG THAT MAKES ME HAPPY… Any song by Beyoncé: Runnin (Lose It All) with Naughty Boy is pretty good – I often find myself singing along to it in the car. LAST TIME I CRIED… When I watched film Miss You Already with Drew Barrymore and Toni Collette. I am a huge crier when watching chick flicks. I blubbed through a lot of it it. It’s quite touching. MY ADVICE FOR LIFE… Have…

She ended their romance in June after a string of rows, but Danielle Armstrong tells Closershe still fancies her ex James “Lockie” Locke after they spent time together while filming in Marbella recently. The 27-year-old star admits: “James and I spent time apart between filming breaks, but obviously saw each other a lot while out in Marbella. It was hard to see him. There were a few nights where I looked over at him and thought how good he looked. I didn’t break up with him because I didn’t fancy him any more. I still fancy him, but we’re just mates now and I don’t see us getting back together.” And while she was left in tears after Lockie’s flirtations with TOWIE newcomer Verity Chapman, 24, last series, Danielle says…

WHO WORE IT BEST? Jennifer Lopez vs Hailey Baldwin There’s not much in it with these two! Both stars have colour-matched this lace-up bodycon with nude heels, but while J-Lo ups the glam factor with silver hoops and a quirky topknot hairdo, model Hailey goes for natural-looking locks and barely there make-up. VERDICT Hailey’s pared-back style lets the dress do the talking, making her our winner. STYLE CRUSH!

THE MOVES After having Polly, four, Kym said parts of her body would never be the same again. But the star, 39, stays slim by working out three times a week with a personal trainer. She also does high-intensity interval training – short intense bursts of exercise to get your heart rate up and burn fat. She says: “I do lots of lunges and squats – they give your bum and thighs a fantastic shape.” THE FOODS Size 10 Kym, who’s also mum to David, 20 and Emily, 18, sticks to the high-protein Paleo Diet, avoiding grains, potatoes, processed foods, sugar and dairy. She’ll have an omelette for breakfast, a beef fillet with quinoa for lunch, then chilli and veg for dinner. Snacks include tomatoes and nuts. Kym says: “I…

Where do you shop? Mainly Tesco or Marks & Spencer. But I’m not sure how much I spend, because I buy fresh food every day rather than doing a weekly shop. What’s your typical daily diet? It’s really bad but I usually skip breakfast! Lunch would be something like a jacket potato with tuna or a sandwich, and for dinner I’ll have a fillet steak with rocket and rosemary potatoes with mozzarella. I always feed the kids [Jennifer is mum to Bobby, five, Harry, two, and 12-month-old Charlie] healthy meals then end up eating rubbish myself! What’s the strangest thing you’ve eaten? When I did Hell’s Kitchen I had sweetbread [pancreas of either a calf or a lamb]. It was vile. What would you cook to impress? I’d do stuffed…

It’s breast cancer awareness month, and you may think there isn’t much more to learn, but when it comes to protecting against the most common female cancer in the world, it’s worth updating your knowledge. Survival rates are at the highest they’ve ever been – but we can always do better. Here’s how you can protect yourself… WHAT FEELS NORMAL? We can treat breast cancer successfully – but the earlier we diagnose it the better our chances. If you can go to your doctor and say “I check my breasts every month and they don’t feel right,” your GP will take it extremely seriously. So check your breasts, armpits and collarbone area every single month, several days after your period ends, as breasts can feel lumpy during your cycle. Nine…

MY POCKET MONEY WAS… £1 a week and £5 if I washed the car. I saved it up until I had enough to go clothes shopping. MY FIRST JOB WAS... Working in a bakery for £15 a day. I didn’t stay long because I couldn’t stand all the wasps! WITH MY FIRST ‘PROPER’ PAY CHEQUE I BOUGHT... A car – a Fiat Cinquecento. It was a disgusting metallic lime green colour, but at the time I thought it was cool. It cost £1,250. MY BIGGEST IMPULSE PURCHASE WAS... A grey Chloe Paddington bag for £800. Crazily it cost nearly as much as my first car, but it was a treat and I still have it – unlike the car! MY BIGGEST FINANCIAL MISTAKE WAS... Buying a house in an area…

Closer’s psychologist Emma Kenny says: “Kerry had a difficult upbringing and has spoken about her dysfunctional relationship with her mum, Sue, and spending time in care with foster parents. That experience tends to create quite a fractured sense of self-worth. Kerry so desperately wants to find normality, stability and to feel she belongs. But she seems to look for that with love. Often, controlling men appear protective to someone with low self-esteem. But it’s a vicious cycle that Kerry needs to break. Even between her marriages, she always has boyfriends. But what she needs is quality time on her own to really work on her self-esteem. She needs to find strength in herself and being on her own. Plus, she needs to show her children that you should…

Sexpert Tracey Cox says: “Jordan’s effectively removed Kieran from temptation by refocusing his interests outwards (on the farm and the kids) rather than inwards (being body obsessed). While this may be healthier for Kieran, Jordan has shifted the power dynamic in the relationship from his favour to hers. Being controlled isn’t something most people enjoy and it could backfire. The danger is Kieran is so far removed from his old life he could yearn for it again, causing big problems.”…

In August this year, shocking pictures emerged of cerebral palsy sufferer Rob Tomlinson, who’d been forced to bathe in a paddling pool in a living room after becoming a victim of the Bedroom Tax – a cut in benefits for council and housing association tenants if they are deemed to have spare bedrooms. Rob’s family, who had two spare rooms, fell into debt after struggling to cope on their reduced income. They were forced to move out of their specially converted home, which had a purpose-built walk-in shower, and into a bungalow with no bathroom facilities for the disabled. And last month an inquest ruled that Michael O’Sullivan, from London – who had a history of mental illness – took his life partly due to losing his benefits after being…

CLOSER’S PSYCHOLOGIST EMMA KENNY SAYS: “Kim’s continued to dress sexily and post racy selfies throughout her pregnancy, despite now admitting to feeling “insecure.” It’s like she’s saying to her fans: ‘Please still like me, I haven’t changed really.’ She’s put herself under pressure to conform to her sexy image – more than ever, she needs the confidence boost she gets from all the attention.”…

I got a split ticket as it’s cheaper. If you buy one ticket the whole way it’s much more expensive! £4.50 On a delicious feta, beetroot and sweet potato sandwich from Pret A Manger for lunch.…

Their whirlwind romance on Celebrity Big Brother in 2006 led to a lavish wedding after just eight months, but Chantelle Houghton and Ordinary Boys singer Samuel Preston called it quits within a year, saying: “We hope we can always remain friends.” Last year, Chantelle admitted she still loved her ex and, when asked last week if he felt the same, Preston, 33, added to reunion speculation, admitting: “Oh, you know, you never lose those feelings.” And sources close to Chantelle, 32 – who’s single after a string of failed romances including with Alex Reid, dad to her daughter Dolly, three – say she’d love a second chance with the singer. A source says: “Chantelle still loves Preston and has always regretted the marriage not working out. She says she was…

After she was seen taking a spectacular tumble in the rain on a night out in LA last week, sources are claiming Cameron Diaz’s 10-month marriage to musician Benji Madden is under strain. The actress, 43, married Good Charlotte rocker Benji, 36, in January after a whirlwind seven-month romance. But while Benji sent a loved-up Tweet to his wife on her birthday last month, saying he was “the luckiest man alive,” those close to the couple say their marriage is going through a difficult patch. And sources say they’ve taken a step back from their baby plans – despite rumours last month that she was expecting twins. “They started dating and got married while they were on that high couples get when everything’s perfect at the start,” a source tells…

Decked out in a body warmer, jeans and trainers, comic Keith Lemon pulls off a pretty convincing Marty McFly from Back To The Future (if you squint a bit). Thirty years since the blockbuster film was released, Keith’s been chomping at the bit to front an anniversary show. And what better date to do it than 21 October 2015, the date Marty and Doc Brown journeyed to in Back To The Future II – a world of flying cars, self-tying trainers and instant pizza. “Everyone who knows me knows I’m a massive Back To The Future fan,” Keith explains. “The Celebrity Juice team even bought me a hoverboard. I got tearful twice while we were filming this docu because I was so overwhelmed.” In Keith Lemon’s Back To The Future…

His best friend Gemma Collins quit TOWIE after four years this summer, and Bobby Cole Norris insists it won’t be the same without her. He says: “Being in Marbella was the first time I’d filmed without Gemma. We always shared a bed on holiday and would get fast food when we were hungover. But it was the best decision for her.” And Bobby, 28, says he’s made amends after getting into a feud with former co-star Sam Faiers, 24 – she blasted him in her autobiography over his 2014 romance with her pal Harry Derbidge. He says: “I was upset over things Sam said in her book, but we’ve cleared the air and we’re on good terms now.”…

She was known as the Ice Queen of Chelsea whose straight-talking often landed her in trouble, but it seems Lucy Watson has started to thaw. Lucy, 25, says: “I was 21 when I joined the show, I was a bit of a bitch. I still am, but I’ve matured a lot. I care more about people’s feelings now.” Lucy’s had plenty of drama with men, having dated both Spencer and Jamie, and she says it’s hard having her heartache played out on screen. She says: “People get involved in my relationships and that’s annoying. It’s not only the cast but also viewers – you can’t avoid their opinions.” Lucy fell out with best pal and co-star Stephanie Pratt earlier this year after saying she hated her boyfriend Josh, but Lucy…

At just 14 years old, Pauline Kidd spent her days in a drug and alcohol-fuelled haze. After a troubled childhood, she fell in with the wrong crowd and even came close to death after overdosing. But incredibly, falling pregnant at 14 was the wake-up call she needed. Despite being advised to have an abortion, the schoolgirl was adamant she wanted to be a mum. She now credits her two-year-old son Logan with transforming her life. Pauline, from Wallsend, North Tyneside – who’s in a relationship with Logan’s father, Jack, 19 – says: “When I fell pregnant it gave me an incentive to turn my life around. I couldn’t bear the idea of having an abortion and wanted to show everyone I could be a good mum. My life was out…

BEST FOR RADIANCE Back on the market by popular demand, Tesco’s BD Trade Secrets Face Lift is again a best-seller, and we can see why. The pearly gel-like moisturiser with primrose oil made our skin look luminous, especially under make-up. Looks great swiped over exposed collarbones, too. BEST FOR VALUE We didn’t expect much from a £4 mascara, but we were wrong. The chubby wand dispensed just the right amount of colour, leaving lashes neatly coated but not heavily loaded with clumpy product. BEST FOR NAIL POLISH Inexpensive brands can have a more limited range of shades than professional salon brands, but Sainsbury’s Boutique offers three variations of pillar box red alone! The polishes aren’t watery – we doubled the coats and they were as good as any other, lasting…

Melanie Walcott may be the wife of Arsenal winger and top England player Theo Walcott, but she couldn’t be less stereotypically WAG. When she arrives at our photo shoot, Mel is chatty, down-to-earth and her eyes light up when she talks about the couple’s 18-month-old son Finley. Happily posing in skimpy clothes, Mel looks incredible, but she’s the first to stress that while she eats healthily, she is naturally slim. “I’ve always been small and I’m short too,” says the petite 26 year old, who’s a size 8. “I don’t strive to be skinny – but the older I get the more I realise it’s important to be healthy. I eat well as I’m still breastfeeding my son twice a day so I want him to get the best possible…

Skip the milk and sugar in your coffee and add 1tsp coconut oil instead. It has a solid, butter-like consistency (turning to liquid above 25°C) and will taste as creamy as your favourite latte. Make cacao banana lollies – mix 30g melted coconut oil and 30g raw cacao powder in a bowl. Peel 6 bananas. Dunk bananas (on sticks) in the bowl. Sprinkle with nuts and place on a tray (lined with baking paper). Chill in the fridge for 1 hour. Spread a thin layer on to a slice of wholegrain toast. Add 1tsp to your favourite smoothie. Or, try this Blueberry Bee Blitz – whizz up 1tsp coconut oil, 50g blueberries, 1 small banana, 100ml natural yoghurt (or kefir), 50ml coconut milk. Blend until thick and smooth. Add 1tbsp…

B being a mum is a wonderful experience for most of us, but it is an emotional roller-coaster. Some new mums experience post-natal depression, but even if you don’t, it’s totally normal to feel anxious, tearful and confused regularly, even long after the little ones are out of nappies. Having a child is a huge responsibility – here’s how to handle the feelings that threaten to overwhelm you… BE A CONFIDENT MUM GO EASY ON YOURSELF! No one knows what they’re doing! Being a mum is something you learn as you go. Motherhood is exciting and challenging and many of us go wrong regularly. I tried not to take too much advice and employed the “mum knows best” approach. This reduced my anxiety. TALK! Discuss your feelings – good and…

TV Q&A YVETTE FIELDING: ‘I thought a ghost would kill us all off’ Prepare for the spookiest building EVER to be seen on Most Haunted, as Yvette Fielding and hubby Karl Beattie return for a new run of the hit series Yvette, tell us about 30 East Drive (in Pontefract, West Yorkshire) – said to house one of the most violent poltergeists in the world (gulp)…? Y: In my opinion, it is the most violently haunted building – with the most evil presence I have ever encountered before; it makes Pendle Hall [another spooky place – visited for the 2004 MH Halloween Special] look like Disneyland. What happened? K: One minute, I was standing in a room by a bed with everyone around me – the next I was coming…
