When news broke in Hollywood of sexual assault allegations against movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, who could have predicted the aftermath? Here we are, less than six weeks later, and the scandal has not only spread across the world – engulfing celebrities and politicians – it’s even threatening to bring down our Government. On p18, we look at how this movement is now empowering ordinary women to make a stand against sexual harassment in the workplace. Our shocking exclusive survey shows over 40 per cent of Closer readers have suffered harassment at work. One woman, Noeleen McAleenon, bravely told us she made a stand against a male colleague because “we deserve respect and dignity”. It’s high time this message was heard loud and clear.…

She endured a turbulent start to her pregnancy when her then-boyfriend Arthur Collins was arrested and later charged over a vicious acid attack at an East London club in April. And two weeks ago Ferne McCann gave birth during Arthur’s trial, where he was charged with injuring 16 people and five counts of causing grievous bodily harm with intent and nine counts of actual bodily harm. HEARTACHE The former TOWIE star, 27, announced baby Sunday’s arrival on Instagram, posting, “Didn’t expect to see you a week early,” while revealing that she was “so in love and bursting with pride.” As Closer went to press, Arthur’s month-long trial was coming to an end as the jury were sent home for the weekend to continue deliberations on Monday. And pals say it’s…

She recently revealed she wanted to shed 4st ahead of her summer wedding to fiancé Ryan Oates, but last week Chanelle Hayes’ dream of finally getting her fairy-tale ending was left in tatters after Ryan reportedly walked out on her just two months after giving birth to their son, Frankie. In a furious Twitter rant following her split from the 35-year-old PE teacher, Chanelle, 29, said, “When @ RyanJOates drops your child off and you basically beg him to sort your family out but he tells you his family and friends have told him he should have left me sooner than he did! What a lovely bunch of people.” When a worried fan asked if the pair had broken up, she replied, “We’ve not split up, he has walked out…

So called “Hot Felon” Jeremy Meeks’ estranged wife Melissa confessed last week that she lost a baby during her devastation over her husband’s affair with Topshop heiress Chloe Green, 26. The 38-year-old nurse said, “Not only was I grieving the loss of my life and my husband, I also had to grieve the loss of a child. I was under so much stress and so many emotions. I described to the doctor my spotting and bleeding and he said based on what I was saying about the continuous bleeding, I was probably passing the baby.” Melissa and Jeremy, 33 – whose mug shot went viral in 2014 and launched his international modelling career – were married for eight years and are parents to seven-year-old son Jeremy Jr. Melissa also has…

❛I FELT VIOLATED AND DEGRADED – IT WAS A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE❜ Accusations of sexual harassment against Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein, 65, shocked the world last month and prompted a wave of people to come forward to speak about their own traumas. Within just a few days, social media exploded, with allegations being made under the hashtag “#metoo”. From catcalling to inappropriate touching, the scale of the problem was revealed when the hashtag was Tweeted more than 500,000 times in less than a week. The campaign was started by actress Alyssa Milano, who encouraged women to raise awareness about sexual misconduct in the wake of the news about Weinstein. British actress Lysette Anthony, 54, reported Weinstein to the Metropolitan Police claiming he raped her during the 1980s in her own home.…

Charlotte Crosby’s night out was threatened by ex Stephen Bear when he tried to gatecrash Sophie Kasaei’s 28th birthday party at Essex restaurant Sheesh last week. Bear was reportedly refused entry due to his lack of reservation and trainer footwear, but sources claim he was convinced Charlotte was behind his rejection. Charlotte and Bear, both 27, split in October after a turbulent eight months together. And insiders say he made a surprise appearance in a desperate bid to see her. A source reveals, “Bear was adamant he wanted to talk to Charlotte but she wants him out of her life. She’s feels like he’s a ghost who is constantly trying to stop her moving on.” CLASH WITH BOUNCERS Sources claim Bear begged Charlotte’s pal Marnie Simpson, 25, to ask her…

JORDAN, 39, AND PETE, 44, The famous and well-documented love story first blossomed in the jungle back in 2004. And viewers were hooked. GILLIAN MCKEITH, 58, The nutritionist fainted rather dramatically on live TV when she was picked for a trial. That’s one way to get out of eating kangaroo balls! MYLEENE KLASS, 39, There’s no denying that Myleene – and that bikini – made the jungle shower an essential part of the show in 2006. HELEN FLANAGAN, 27, She grabbed headlines with her incredible bikini body, but most viewers will remember Helen’s 2012 stint for her tantrums. GEMMA COLLINS, 36, The GC was a fan fave when she entered the jungle, but she left after just three days, insisting, “Murderers get treated better.”…

Justin Jedlica, 36, from Los Angeles, has had over 340 cosmetic procedures, including five rhinoplasties, plus shoulder, back, cheek and bum implants, in his bid to look like a real-life Ken. Body modification expert Justin told Closer , “My appearance comes first and that has caused problems in relationships. You can never have enough surgery, but some people can only deal with it for so long. I’m one of the world’s most extreme surgery addicts and I love pushing the limits. I designed my own back implants, but now I’m not happy and want them changed.”…

AGEING I don’t think I’m getting older – I think I’m Peter Pan! In my mind I’m still 20 to 25, I don’t think about getting old. I don’t feel old, I feel young all the time. WEARING A WIG It was lovely [wearing a wig earlier this year, right] – it was just really odd because when I put it on, I enjoyed it for the first few minutes and then I suddenly thought, ‘Oh my gosh, I miss my hair,’ so I got a bit teary. I’ve never worn it again. I think I’m so used to being bald now. Anyway, my daughter and my friends love me as I am. KEEPING FIT I stick to a healthy diet and try to drink loads of water. I love…

JENNY How much do you spend per week? About £200 for me and my daughters, Connie [16] and Pollyanna [eight]. I mix and match between farmers’ markets and supermarkets. Describe your daily diet... Breakfast is porridge with raw milk, topped with nuts, blueberries, flaxseeds, cinnamon or cacao. For lunch, I’ll have two organic scrambled eggs and smoked salmon on sourdough toast with either harissa or houmous on the side. For dinner, I’ll slow-cook a beef stew with rice and plenty of veg, or a chicken stir-fry. I snack on Brazil nuts, almond butter, apples or cheese and crackers. Is there anything you refuse to eat? I’m very careful about choosing where my food comes from – especially my meat. I won’t eat it unless it’s organic or grass-fed. I don’t…

RELATIONSHIPS RESIST CRITICISING A FRIEND’S PARTNER How should you react if your pal keeps complaining about her other half? Emma explains her golden rules I have a big mouth, and over the years I have had to learn to muzzle it, because it turns out honesty isn't always the best policy. This relates in particular to a friend I used to have, who would complain about her man pretty much every time I met her. In the end, I started agreeing that he may not be right for her, eventually adding my reasons for feeling that way. Three weeks later, her engagement was plastered all over social media and – you guessed it – I didn't get an evening invite to the wedding. Striking a balance between being honest and…

You play registrar Kate, who’s juggling plenty of her own personal dramas… Kate is doing what most women do – which is juggling everything and trying to be a superwoman. She’s passionate about her work, and she’s offered a desperately longed-for promotion. Her colleague – played by Rebecca Front – wanted the job too. She knows a secret about Kate, and basically blackmails her with it… It’s not a comedy though? It couldn’t be further from a comedy. There’s a lot of high emotion and Rebecca’s character is very earnest and a bit humourless – which is wonderful for an actress who’s won a BAFTA for comedy. [Writer] Kay Mellor said she couldn’t believe no one had cottoned on to setting a drama at a register office because every walk…

‘HER FAMILY AND FRIENDS ARE WORRIED SHE’S TAKING ON TOO MUCH’ After she made a shock return to The X Factor last month to help Simon Cowell at Judges’ Houses, it was reported last week that Cheryl was in talks to rejoin the panel for next year’s series with a generous £1.5million deal. The star is also said to be working hard on her fifth album and had sparked rumours she was set to fly to LA to start recording when she was spotted outside the US Embassy. HAUNTING PAST Now insiders say despite an exciting year ahead, Cheryl, 34, is struggling with the idea of missing her eight-month-old son Bear as she launches her hectic career comeback. To add to her woes, sources say the star, who has been…

❛IT HAS TO BE LIKE THIS IF THEY’RE GOING TO HAVE A CHANCE OF SALVAGING THINGS❜ • Claims Ant McPartlin has moved out and wants ‘space’ to ‘re-evaluate’ his 11-year marriage to Lisa Armstrong • He’s hurt by divorce speculation • The pair are due to be separated again as he films I’m A Celeb! in Australia Their fractured marriage was under increasing pressure last week, when reports emerged that troubled Ant McPartlin had moved out of the home he shared with his wife Lisa Armstrong, and “needs space” to “re-evaluate” their 11-year marriage. The news came just days before Ant planned to jet out to Australia to begin filming the new series of I’m A Celeb! . The couple have endured a rocky five months since the 41-year-old TV…

ZIGGY LICHMAN – 2007 Chanelle rose to fame as a 19 year old in Big Brother in 2007, striking up a fiery relationship with Ziggy Lichman. They said they had sex every day in the house, and split six months later. MATTHEW BATES – 2009 Chanelle began dating the Middlesbrough footballer in 2009 and fell pregnant aged 22. But she admitted she hit rock bottom when he ended their romance when she was just three months pregnant. JACK TWEED – 2009-2013 Chanelle started dating Jack while she was pregnant. The pair endured a rocky four-year romance, and Chanelle accused him of threatening to release explicit photos of her after they split in 2013.…

‘Paul was silly to get close to Candice’ After Paul Hollywood is accused of kissing Bake Off’s Candice Brown, insiders say it’s caused tension at home He hit the headlines last week, when he was pictured in what appeared to be a close embrace with former Great British Bake Off winner Candice Brown as they kissed at the Pride of Britain Awards. Despite rumours over whether the embrace was anything more than friendly, Paul Hollywood laughed off the accusations – but sources say the photos caused tension with wife Alexandra, whom he married in 1998. The photos show Paul, 51, leaning towards Candice, 32 – who won Bake Off in 2016 – and kissing her while cupping the back of her head with his hand, with onlookers saying the pair…

Shocking stats released this week showed that the likelihood of women dying from alcohol-related problems in their early 60s has risen almost a third since the year 2000. With the death rates among middle-aged women rising at a higher rate than men of the same age, doctors have said that the popular o’clock” trend may be to blame. Drinkaware pokesperson and linical director of atient.co.uk, Dr arah Jarvis, says, “Thanks to the wine o’clock trend, I see more women drinking a couple of glasses as a reward at the end of the day. A large glass tends to be three units, which adds up to 42 a week and is way over the recommended 14 units a week. In this case, women are much more likely to develop health problems…

TOLD A LIE… When somebody recently asked me if I was OK. I generally wear my heart on my sleeve, but we all have down days and sometimes I find it hard to admit when I’m upset. I should have just been honest, as it’s always more beneficial to tell the truth and let your emotions out rather than bottle them up. I shouldn’t be afraid to admit when I’m down. CRIED… I watched the documentary Black Fish recently and it left me absolutely distraught. It’s about the treatment of killer whales at Sea World and it’s truly heartbreaking viewing. I hate to think about the way we treat animals for entertainment. There’s one scene where a baby Orca gets taken from its mother. I cried buckets. HURT SOMEONE’S FEELINGS……

ON TREND! KIDS’ PARTYWEAR… With the festive season just around the corner, there’s never been a better time to pep up the kiddies’ wardrobes, and this year the supermarket aisles are brimming with top partywear picks. From velvet dresses to dapper suiting sets, these pieces will ensure your little one steals the spotlight. WHO WORE IT BEST? RACHEL VS MARGOT Actresses Margot and Rachel had us seeing double when they both stepped out in these matching Zimmerman skirts (£1,100). While Margot chose a biker chic look in a lace cami and chunky boots, Rachel kept the look ultra-chic with a high-neck top and classic nude heels. VERDICT Although we love Rachel’s sleek look, Margot gets our vote for giving the girlie skirt a glam-yet-grunge feel, making her this week’s style…

Designer candles can be a seductive concept. On one hand, they’re a way of adding a high-end element at home without splashing too much cash. On the other hand – you can spend upwards of £50 on something that will burn out in a week or two. Fragrance expert Karen Gilbert shares her insider knowledge on what to spend your money on… “Candles might look simple, but a lot of thought goes into them for both quality and safety. When buying luxury candles or diffusers, there will be a high expectation on what we call ‘throw’ – which is how much the scent fills the room. To do this, you need higher fragrance levels and a bigger budget for the materials. Lots of people want natural scents in their candles…

At the weekends, all I want to do is have fun with my girls, Maddie, 14, and Kiki, 10. We will jump on the train, head into the city, and wander around the museums and art galleries. It’s educational but fun too as we check out the latest exhibitions. It’s lovely to spend quality time together and we have a good giggle and catch up about what we’ve been up to during the week. To treat us all after a long day, on the train on the way home, I opt for Fruittella 30% Less Sugar. The girls love the fruity sweets – and with absolutely no sweeteners at all, just the unmistakably fruity taste of Fruittella – it’s good to know that, as a family, we can have yummy…

DON’T SKIP MEALS, DOCTOR’S ORDERS! Research suggests that missing brekkie harms our hearts, Dr Christian serves up his opinion We’ve known for a long time that cutting out meals makes people overweight. A new study has shown those who don’t eat breakfast have a greater build-up of fatty material in their arteries, which is bad for your heart. The authors think it’s because missing breakfast disrupts your body clock, but I suspect there’s more to it. Perhaps people who skip meals also smoke more, exercise less, or are heavier or more stressed, all of which impacts heart health. It’s easy to do; you oversleep and miss breakfast, work through lunch or get home too late for dinner, or you mistakenly think you’ll be slimmer by missing a meal, but you…

It’s always been a numbers game in the digital dating world, but now it’s a lot more literal thanks to a new study to mark the launch of new MTV dating show Single AF. According to new dating data, you should wait three hours before replying to a message – any sooner and you’ll come across as too keen. I was always told not to play games, but now that four out of five people meet online, it’s time to play by the new rules. Facebook is the holy grail of romance – it’s now the most popular place to meet a new partner, having matched twice as many couples as Tinder. What I find most shocking is that one in five singles now think they have a chance of…

‘I turned my doggy passion into a career’ Victoria Stent, 36, founder of Four Legged Fancies, shares her business success story – and explains how you can do the same In 2012, Victoria started making dog treats to sell at her local farmers’ market. Five years on, her products are stocked at Pets At Home, have celeb fans including Georgia May Jagger, and she’s gone from making £50 every Saturday to £100k turnover per year. CUPCAKES TO PUPCAKES “I started making cupcakes at the local farmers’ market, but it wasn’t original enough to take off,” says Victoria. “Then, one day, my dogs started sniffing around the cakes and I thought it would be brilliant to make dog cupcakes – or pupcakes – so they could enjoy them, too. My parents…

Motherland is a (brilliant) sitcom all about navigating the trials and traumas of middle-class parenthood… The BBC told us it was OK to show bad mothering on screen, and that it would be funny! I’ve been asked, “What about Fatherland?” but, generally, unfortunately it’s still an area populated by women. Although we all moan about the fact that there aren’t enough dads on the school run, and when they do show up we’re like, “What the f*** do you want?!” The comedy surrounds the “tribe” of Julia [played by Anna Maxwell Martin], Liz [Diane Morgan] and Kevin [Paul Ready], versus the “alpha mums”… It’s kind of like a school situation where you’ve got the “cool gang” and you need to find your tribe. Our tribe have found each…

PROFESSOR GREEN Pro Green’s dog pretty much sums up how we feel when we have to spend yet another sleepless night hanging out of our toddler’s cot trying to get them to sleep. Posh races a mannequin in a pair of high heels – who’s the dummy now, huh? Poor Bieber senses he’s lost his appeal when he enters the tiny dressing room on his latest tour.

She posted a video of her daughter, Harper, singing while drawing a festive pic on social media last week, with the caption #WatchOutMariah – and pals say Posh would love her to be the next big child star. Insiders say the mum-of-four, 43, had meetings with talent managers on her recent trip to LA in a bid to launch her six year old as a singing sensation – but the move has caused some tension between her and husband David, 42. A source says, “David’s incredibly protective over Harper and said he feels it’s too early for her to be in the limelight at such a young age. Victoria insists it’s something Harper wants and it’s good to get her used to the spotlight now.” Harper’s brother Cruz, 12, caused…

NICOLE KIDMAN & KEITH URBAN The Oscar-winning actress, 50, persuaded her singer husband, also 50, to enter rehab for his alcohol dependency in 2006, just four months after they wed. ROBBIE WILLIAMS & AYDA FIELD Robbie, 43, was on a cocktail of drugs and alcohol when he met actress Ayda, 38, in 2006. She stood by him when he went into rehab the following year. SAMUEL L JACKSON & LATANYA RICHARDSON Samuel, 68, said wife LaTanya – whom he wed in 1980 – and their daughter Zoe helped him beat his drug and alcohol addiction after finding him unconscious in 1990. ROBERT DOWNEY JR & SUSAN LEVIN The Iron Man star, 52, credits his second wife Susan, 44, for helping him give up his wild past, after she gave him…

She confirmed her break-up with jailed boyfriend Joey Morrison in August, but reports surfaced last week that Lauren Goodger was trying to win him back, after sharing a photo of herself cuddled up to his pregnant sister Char on social media. Lauren, 31, dated Joey on and off for 15 months before their split this summer, tearfully confessing that a relationship behind bars had become too difficult to cope with. BECOMING A MUM But sources say the former TOWIE star has insisted there’s no going back for the pair, and that she’s ready to throw herself back into the single world. A source says, “Lauren’s defiant that she’s not reuniting with Joey. She posted the picture because she’s still close friends with Char and all of Joey’s family – she’s…

He’s been partying with his new Hollywood pal Mario Lopez in both London and Essex, and Mark Wright was forced to deny anything “untoward” happened after he was snapped with a “mystery brunette”, who he later explained was his friend’s girlfriend. But insiders tell Closer the stories about Mark – who was seen downing shots of tequila and documented his boozy antics on social media – left his wife Michelle Keegan, 30, humiliated, saying she’s sick of the constant rumours about the state of their marriage. The actress recently returned to the UK, but is keeping a low profile. TOWIE REPUTATION A source says, “Michelle hated seeing the pictures of Mark out drinking with girls around him. She knows it was innocent and of course she trusts him, but she’s…

The state of her nine-year marriage to Wayne Rooney has remained under scrutiny since his shock arrest in August for drink-driving on a night out with party girl Laura Simpson. But last week, pregnant Coleen Rooney posted a photo of the footballer on her social media for the first time since the scandal, as part of a collage for their son Kai’s eighth birthday. Wayne, 31 – who was given a two-year driving ban and 100 hours’ community service – also shared a photo of the birthday celebrations in their family home in Cheshire. The footballer – who Laura claimed she kissed and cuddled on the night out, though she later denied it happened – has publicly apologised to his family. Sources say that after turning a corner, he’s determined…

‘I’m hoping the winner will be a girl’ In Scarlett Moffatt’s world, there’s no slowing down. Just weeks after the October release of her second book Me Life Story, Sofa So Good, she’s returned to Australia – a year after she was crowned Queen of the Jungle, a life-changing title she’s more than happy to hand over. Scarlett, 27, says, “I’m so excited! And I’m hoping [the winner] is a girl – girl power all the way. I’m hoping they get as much luck as I have. This time last year I was still in my 9-5 job, so this is just bizarre. GEORDIE POWER “Another Geordie winning would be amazing. How many more girl Geordies can we pull out of the bag? Get them all in, get Cheryl involved.…

Clare Hutton, 42, says, “I married my first husband in my early twenties, but after having our two children our marriage fell apart and we divorced in 2009. Being a single mum and working as a teacher meant I was always very busy and I’d enjoy a couple of glasses of wine most evenings when the kids were in bed to help me unwind. Other mums I knew did the same, so I didn’t think anything of it. “A few years later, I met another man, but when things turned sour, I found having a couple of glasses wasn’t enough to help me relax and I began drinking more – up to two bottles a night. But after a few weeks I realised I was drinking too much and cut…

‘ EVERYWHERE I GO PEOPLE STARE AT ME AND WANT TO TAKE PICTURES’ With her peroxide hair extensions, candy-pink lips and perfectly-proportioned 24-inch waist, Nikki Exotika believes she’s every bit the perfect woman. But it’s taken Barbie-obsessed Nikki – who was born a boy called Jason Torres – two decades and a whopping £750,000 to transform into her idol. The 35 year old has had over 30 cosmetic procedures, including gender reassignment surgery, cheek implants, a bum lift and six nose jobs. Despite several botched procedures on her nose and breasts – which have since been fixed – Nikki says she’s very happy with her surgery-enhanced looks, and reveals she’s now even considering having a rib removal procedure. The model and singer says, “I’ve done every procedure you could possibly…

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FLU AND A COLD? There’s a common misconception that the flu is merely a bad cold, but a common cold usually lasts for a few days and you may feel a little unwell. Meanwhile, the flu is quite debilitating and causes sore throat, muscle ache, fever and lasts for around ten days. Last year, 150 people died from the flu, whereas no one becomes seriously ill from a cold and you need to treat both differently. WILL GOING OUT WITH WET HAIR MAKE ME ILL? There’s no specific truth to this. If you have wet hair, you’ll feel colder because of the evaporation of the water, but not much else will happen. What matters is whether you’re exposed to a virus, not necessarily the temperature.…

1 I’M A CELEB! TO OZ WE GO!
