It’s not a newborn that’s keeping Meghan Markle up at night. Life & Style’s source reveals the Duchess of Sussex is convinced that her new countryside digs are haunted! Frogmore Cottage on Windsor Estate (where Meghan, 37, and husband Prince Harry, 34, moved ahead of their first child’s birth) is just feet away from the burial ground where Queen Victoria, King Edward VIII and other royals are laid to rest. “Meghan is running around burning sage to cleanse the house,” spills the source.“She gets a shiver down her spine every time a door or floorboard creaks and has already arranged for a medium to come over!”…

Roll up the partition, please. Because Beyoncé doesn’t want to be addressed directly by employees, a source reveals to Life & Style. Instead, Queen Bey, 37, has underlings speak to a middleman, who then relays the info to her — and she, in turn, gives her reply to the middleman — even when all parties are in the same room. “It’s so crazy,” says the source. “She can completely hear everything you are saying, but won’t even look at you. And you definitely can’t try to make eye contact with her. It’s not natural, but you get used to it pretty quickly.”…

Last July, Michelle Williams quietly wed musician Phil Elverum after mere months of dating. Now she’s just as quietly split from the 40-year-old — and a source says the reason is a “simple” one. While the two felt intensely bonded over being single parents of daughters and having late partners, “they moved too quickly,” notes the source, adding that Michelle, 38, has always been eager to give Matilda, 13, a “happy, stable” home life following the sudden passing of father Heath Ledger in 2008. “Phil and Michelle are both private people who crave normalcy, but it was just a case of too much, too soon.”…

While Prince William and Kate Middleton are set to be king and queen of the United Kingdom one day, the regal pair are adamant about not spoiling their children. “Birthdays, however,” says a source, “are an exception.” And they recently went all-out for their youngest, Prince Louis. With William being pulled away for royal duties in New Zealand on April 23, the actual day the tot turned 1, he and Kate “organized an early celebration at Anmer Hall,” notes the source, adding that only a handful of close friends and family were invited. “Kate and her mom, Carole, transformed the country home with balloons, teddy bears, a mini theme park in the garden as well as an Easter egg hunt. It was a 1-year-old’s heaven!” FAMILY FUN The celebrating didn’t…

Raising kids is no laughing matter. So, as their daughters, Vivian and Georgette, enter their tween years, Melissa McCarthy and her husband, Ben Falcone, are opting to relocate from LA. “Hollywood can be fake and sometimes very toxic,” says an insider, who explains that Vivian, 11, and Georgette, 9, are getting to the ages when peer pressure becomes a serious issue. “Melissa wants her girls to grow up with different priorities, like education.” New York and Illinois, where Melissa, 48, grew up, are now on the list of possible home bases for the actress, Ben, 45, and their girls. “If the kids want to follow in Melissa’s footsteps and get into entertainment later on, that’s fine, but she wants them grounded in a normal reality and surroundings,” notes the insider.…

Danielle Staub is a magnet for bad romance. A week after her divorce from third husband Marty Caffrey was finalized, the reality star, 56, got engaged to her 21st fiancé, Oliver Maier, 53. But at HealthCorps’ 13th annual gala in NYC on April 16, Danielle’s Real Housewives of New Jersey castmate Margaret Josephs told Life & Style that she’s holding off on a wedding gift. “From what I heard, he’s still in detox,” Margaret (inset) said of Oliver, who admitted in late March that a 2018 stint in rehab “helped me a little bit, but not a lot,” and that he still drinks. The scandal-plagued pair were already forced to deny breakup rumors once — just a week after their February engagement. “I wish Oliver well,” Margaret, 52, added, “but…

On Jan. 26, Miranda Lambert took a leap of faith. Although they’d only known each other for two months, the country music star secretly married the man she calls “the love of my life,” police officer Brendan McLoughlin — who lives and works in NYC — in Tennessee, where she’s been settled since her 2015 divorce from Blake Shelton. “My heart is full,” Miranda gushed in February, thanking Brendan “for loving me for…me.” Now reality has set in. After three months of residing 900 miles apart, “Miranda and Brendan have hit a major bump in the road,” a source tells Life & Style, explaining that though Miranda, 35, and Brendan, 27, see each other as often as they can, commuting back and forth has been tougher than expected. “She spends…

Clue #1 He isn’t the first guy to battle The Biebs — but he may be the most famous. The A-lister and Justin Bieber got into a fistfight in Ibiza, allegedly because each had dated the other’s ex.

Hayes MacArthur THE LAST MOVIE I SAW: “Harmony Korine’s The Beach Bum. It’s why movie theaters serve cocktails! Completely crazy!” THE LAST BOOK I READ: “Willie Nelson’s memoir, It’s a Long Story. It came out a couple years ago, but I just bought it in the Austin airport. It’s cool to read how his life influenced his songs.” THE BAND I CAN’T STOP LISTENING TO: “J Roddy Walston and The Business. I’ve been playing them really loud in my car lately. I roll down the windows when I come to stoplights so other people can hear, too.”…

Cynics said it wouldn’t last, and they were right. After a whirlwind romance that began when Kate Beckinsale, 45, and Pete Davidson, 25, met at a Golden Globes party in January — and featured an intense makeout session at a hockey game in March! — a source reveals the odd couple have called it quits. “There was no big argument,” insists the source. “They just moved too quickly without thinking about the logistics.” Distance was a problem — the British beauty lives in LA, and the Saturday Night Live funnyman moved in with his mom in New York after his engagement to Ariana Grande, 25, ended last fall. And though Pete asserted that the age difference “doesn’t really bother us,” he may have been speaking more for himself. “Kate still…

After years of ups and downs as Disney stars turned-troubled-pop princesses, Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez have a message for each other: Lean on me. The two singers, who are both 26 and completed rehab late last year — Demi for drug addiction; Selena for anxiety and depression — “are determined to stay healthy and steer clear of self-destructive behavior,” a source tells Life & Style. As part of that process, they’re letting go of the slights that have turned them into frenemies from time to time. (In the past, Demi implied she couldn’t “trust” Selena.) “Selena and Demi have made amends and are close again,” says the source. “They’ve pledged to support each other as they work on their comebacks.” Considering how much they have in common, that all…

Just call her mother! Jennifer Lawrence only confirmed her engagement to Cooke Maroney two months ago — but she’s already itching to start a family. In fact, while apartment hunting in NYC recently, the actress, 28, made it clear that her No. 1 priority in a pad is “room for a nursery,” says an insider. “They want four bedrooms and five bathrooms — enough room to grow.” Although J-Law once admitted she desired having kids “less and less” as she got older, meeting art gallerist Cooke, 34, changed everything. “Now Jennifer is really looking forward to becoming a mom,” adds the insider. “She’s can’t wait to nest with Cooke!”…

Bryan’s been a father figure to Louis and Laila for years. In fact, says a source, “The kids have long called Bryan ‘Dad.’ They simply adore him.” Sandra said as much a year ago when she gushed that Bryan is “super kind.” When it comes to what her kids think of him, “he’s sort of No. 1 and I’m No. 2,” the actress explained. “But I get it, because he’s more fun and has better treats.” It’s unclear if Bryan plans to legally adopt Sandra’s children, but the paperwork doesn’t matter. “To be honest,” says the source, since the couple are so private about their kids, “no one will know about it if Bryan does — and he may even have already done it.”…
