Closerの Issue 916 の目次

Body confidence is such a personal thing – some people feel fabulous regardless of shape or size, while others with flawless figures are crippled with insecurities. It’s been wonderful to watch gorgeous Jacqueline Jossa gain such popularity for posting her posed vs real Instagram shots. When we spoke to her in the past, she admitted she used to obsess about the way she looked – but now she’s found genuine confidence. Find out why on page 10. One thing that has emerged from the pandemic, however, is that experts agree being very overweight can be damaging to our health. So if you’d like to lose a few pounds, we’ve got all the inspiration you need with our Slimming World diet plan, recipes and real life transformations. Turn to page 43…

❛I’VE BEEN QUITE LUCKY WITH MY CAREER BUT MY PERSONAL LIFE IS HEARTBREAKING❜ Pefusing to break down in tears despite her personal pain, last week Gemma Collins dropped her diva act to bravely show her more vulnerable side as she revealed she’d suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage during lockdown. During an appearance on Loose Women, Gemma, 39 – who suffers from polycystic ovary syndrome, which can affect fertility and increase the risk of complications in pregnancy – admitted there had been “a lot of pain” and she’d initially mistaken her miscarriage for a heavy period. She said, “I realised that it just wasn’t normal and I was getting through about ten thick sanitary towels a day. My doctor said that I had to go into the hospital immediately… I desperately want…

ADELE: ‘I’ve had to completely change my mindset’ She showcased her incredible 7st weight loss last week in a rare snap on Instagram as she praised her pal Beyoncé’s new visual album, Black Is King – revealing that she’s managed to maintain her slender new figure almost a year after her incredible transformation was first revealed. As Closer previously reported, Beyoncé had introduced Adele, 32, to the strict 1,000-calorie-a-day Sirtfood Diet, which consists of an eating plan heavy in green vegetables, berries, green tea and olive oil, incorporated into two meals and one juice a day. But as Adele – who went from a size 18 to a 10, and who shares son Angelo, seven, with ex-husband Simon Konecki – shifts her focus from weight loss to maintaining her figure,…

BEN IS MAKING LISA SMILE AGAIN She is rumoured to have a new man in her life after photographer Ben Benjilali confirmed they’ve become close friends. Although they’ve denied reports they’re in a relationship, friends exclusively tell Closer that Lisa Armstrong has a “new spring in her step” since meeting him, and has been helping to promote his new face-mask business by wearing his designs out in public. The source says, “This is the first man to make Lisa smile since her divorce. They’re both playing down a romance, but Lisa loves his energy and creativity and he’s become a source of inspiration when it comes to what she wants next out of her career. “She has happily thrown her support behind his business because she believes he’s got a…

I was reading an article the other day about a kids’ TV show called The Next Step on CBBC that featured a same-sex kiss, which sparked over 100 complaints. I just can’t get my head aro und it – who’s got the time to complain about something like that? I joined TOWIE in 2010, so I was one of the first m embers of the LGBTQ+ community on a reality show. And the show was really good at supporting me when I received homophobic abuse online. They were always there to help me and it was amazing. I do think reality TV has come on since then, and it’s great they’re improving their representation with stars who are gay or bisexual. But I don’t think we’ll ever have enough –…

Lauryn gave birth within two and a half weeks of her sister Chloe – who had a baby girl called Isla with her footballer fiancé Grant Hall. The sisters isolated together during lockdown with Grant, their mum, and their other sister Amelia – with Lauryn saying the experience has been truly special. She says, “It’s honestly been incredible to share this with my sister. We are so lucky to have our babies so close together. Everyone always says, ‘Don’t compare your babies’, but it’s so hard not to – they are both so different. We always share things we’ve found our babies doing and little tricks to make things easier. We call them ‘Goodman hacks’. We’ve loved having two newborns in the house! It’s definitely made us appreciate our mum…

1 Put on a film and turn your living room into a cinema. We turn the lights down and I make a snack plate for each of the kids, with popcorn. 2 Get out for a long walk. I couldn’t believe how much my kids thrived being outdoors. We’ve been on some beautiful walks, exploring our local area, and the children loved every second. 3 If the weather is good, turn your garden into a water park. I bought a £14 paddling pool from ASDA and turned the sprinklers on and the kids didn’t come inside all day!…

TRENDY TRACKSUIT Emily Ratajkowski, 29 Although we miss model Emily’s uber-glam red-carpet looks, we love seeing her chilled-out get-ups. We have been relying on loungewear a lot over the last few months, so it’s nice to see A-listers are a fan of boyish basics too. TOP OF THE CROPS Lottie Moss, 22 She was dressed like a princess at a charity gala last year in this metallic gown, but model Lottie manages to look just as fabulous while casually relaxing at home. A box-fresh cardie-top and slouchy jeans is totally timeless – crop optional! BOLD BLOUSE Vanessa Hudgens, 31 Actress Vanessa wowed in her pretty peach minidress, and her dog-walking wardrobe gives us almost as much outfit envy! We love that she’s styled her shirt in a knot – pair…

1 FLOWER BEAUTY SUPERNOVA CELESTIAL SKIN ELIXIR PRIMER £14.99 “I always use a primer when doing my make-up. This oil-based serum is great for hydrating my complexion and giving it a healthy glow. It lasts for ages, too, as just one drop goes a long way.” 2 NARS COSMETICS SHEER GLOW FOUNDATION £33.50 “This foundation provides great coverage without hiding my natural freckles. It conceals my spots and blemishes, but isn’t too heavy for wearing during the day.” 3 REVOLUTION PRO NEW NEUTRAL EYESHADOW PALETTE £14.99 “I only wear eyeshadow if I’m going somewhere special. Pinks, oranges and copper shades are my go-to as they brighten my eyes and make them look extra blue.” 4 GOSH LUXURY NUDE LIPS £8.99 “Bright lipstick doesn’t suit me, so I go for natural-looking…

YOU’RE BACK IN THE ROOM! SUN 16 AUG, 9PM, C4 A fascinating in-depth look at the career (and home, which is a bonus) of illusionist Derren Brown, with clips, lots of chat with the man himself, and interviews with famous fans including Simon Pegg and Martin Freeman. Having got his first TV break off the back of a card trick he played on Stephen Fry, Brown went on to perform some of the most daring stunts ever seen. Viewers can vote for their favourite one during the show, which will air immediately afterwards at 11.10pm. Magic!…

AMBER DAVIES Amber, if you take our advice, you’ll check the car ignition. We’ve lost count of the times we’ve left ours in the bloody car!! LOTTIE MOSS Tbh, Lottie, it’s quite difficult to get sexual tension going when everyone has a mask on and it’s impossible to tell if he looks like Richard Madden or Richard Madeley. Actually, we’d take either! INSPIGRAM KHLOÉ KARDASHIAN Khloé, does this apply to skydiving for the first time without any tuition? Will it definitely end in a good way?…

❛HE’S ALWAYS COMPLIMENTING HER SEXY FIGURE❜ Showcasing her fabulous figure in an eye-catching coral swimsuit, Coleen Rooney looked happy and carefree as she played with her four boys on a beach in Barbados, where she was also snapped having a giggle with her husband Wayne. The 34 year old had even more to smile about when she was also lavished with compliments from fans telling her how great she looked. One comment, which racked up almost 1,000 likes, said, “Here’s a woman with 4 children who hasn’t had surgery – she looks great!”, and “Have to admit, she’s got class, always wearing nice clothes, not showing her bits to the general public. I really like her style.” And despite having to shoot down pregnancy rumours as some fans questioned whether…

She swore off men at the start of the year and insisted she wanted to focus on herself after a rehab stint, telling Closer in April she didn’t want to “rush into” meeting a man or having a baby, adding her mindset was “very different now”. But just three months later, Jordan went public with new boyfriend Carl Woods. And jaws dropped last week when she told her Instagram followers he’d proposed, after sharing a snap of a diamond on her ring finger and praising him, saying, “Knowing @carljwoods will be the last man I want to spend the rest of my life with is an understatement!” ❛SHE SEEMS DESPERATE TO PROVE SHE IS LOVEABLE AND SHE WASN’T THE PROBLEM❜ The mum of five, 42, told fans that former Love…

❛I DEFINITELY LIVE TO EAT RATHER THAN EAT TO LIVE❜ She turned 49 in February, but fans were full of praise for Amanda Holden after she posted an Instagram picture of herself in a red bikini looking thirty years younger during a family holiday last week. Amanda showed off her abs and lithe limbs as she enjoyed a “Great British Staycation” in Cornwall with her husband Chris Hughes and their daughters Lexie, 14, and Hollie, eight. And her bikini post racked up thousands of likes and comments, such as, “The next Bond babe for sure”, and “I’m 23 and I don’t even have a bod like that – how is it even possible?” Amanda – who is 5ft 3 and a size 6/8 – previously told Closer that her gorgeous…

‘Dating isn’t my priority right now’ She was ridiculed in March for moaning about how hard it was to do sponsored posts on social media for work, saying on best pal Billie Faiers’ reality show, “One post on Instagram is probably longer than a day in the office.” But after four months in lockdown living the civilian life, unable to go to events or film her ITV2 reality show First Time Mum, Ferne McCann admits she has a new perspective on life. “My life completely changed – I went from being super-busy working to being with Sunday 24/7,” Ferne tells Closer. “I have a whole new-found respect for stay-at-home mums, because it was totally new to me. Sunday is my absolute world, but I like to do things for me,…

KELLY: ‘I’m not bothered about having kids & getting married’ After being in long-term relationships with the likes of Hollywood stars Billy Zane and Jason Statham, former glamour model Kelly Brook began dating Italian model Jeremy Parisi in 2015, and says she has never felt happier. Kelly, 40, revealed last month that despite wanting to spend the rest of her life with Jeremy, 35, she hasn’t got her heart set on walking down the aisle or starting a family – insisting she’d be happy if it stayed just the two of them. Kelly – who has been engaged four times in the past – said, “I just think I’ve got to 40 now and if my life carried on like this for the next ten years, I wouldn’t be worried…

‘Clothes shopping is now my new favourite activity!’ Hazel Guy, 45, works in a children’s soft-play centre. She lives in Thornton, Kirkcaldy, and has two sons, Jack, 23, and Alfie, 15. She says, “My weight had crept up over the years, and at the beginning of 2017 my size 16 jeans were tight. I found myself snacking on the sofa every evening – sometimes I’d have two tubes of Pringles washed down with fizzy pop – and eating two or three takeaway burger meals during the week. That May, I was leaving my house one day when I bumped into a woman handing out leaflets for her Slimming World group. She was so friendly, so I nervously decided to give her group a go and set myself a target of…

INSIDE MICHELLE’S FRIDGE ● Eggs ● Chillies ● Cheddar cheese ● Ginger ● Bananas ● Avocado ● Salmon ● Sea bass ● Kale ● Prawns ● Raspberries ● Blueberries ● Pomegranate ● Tomatoes ● White wine ● Almond milk ● Celery ● Light Fever Tree tonic water ● Spinach ● Courgettes MICHELLE Where do you do your shopping? Usually the supermarket, but I like supporting local, small places. Their food stays fresh for longer. I also grow vegetables, so we’ll use what’s ready. Describe your daily diet... I’ll have a green juice first thing. I’m not really a breakfast person but I might have scrambled eggs, avocado and chillies. Mid-morning, I’ll have another juice or a coffee. Lunch is a prawn or tuna salad bowl. Depending on the season, I’ll…

FAMILY MATTERS HOW TO COPE IF YOU’VE LOST A BABY Jools Oliver has discussed having a miscarriage during lockdown. Here, Emma offers advice to women facing the same ordeal I have endured five miscarriages, so hearing Jools Oliver speak about her loss breaks my heart. If you are going through a miscarriage, or have experienced one in lockdown, let loved ones understand your struggle. Often, women feel they should carry on as normal, but this isn’t healthy emotionally and isn’t helpful for the grieving process. The physical impact can also be traumatising, so let others shoulder day-to-day tasks like cleaning while you process your loss. Meet a friend for a walk, or invite them for a cuppa if going out feels overwhelming. Having someone listen can soothe some of the…

Body coach Jenna Ansar lives in Lancashire with her five children – Zayn, seven, Rayyan, six, Aneesa, five, Aaila, four, and Salahudeen, three. She says, “Having five kids meant that, before lockdown, I felt like I was always spending money entertaining them. I’d take them out to soft play, buy lunch and, before I knew it, I’d spent the best part of £100. I also thought nothing of popping to McDonald’s drive-through, taking them to the cinema, or ordering a takeaway. “I was really surprised that, while isolating, I didn’t miss the days out and, most importantly, neither did the kids. We made our own entertainment – having a cinema night at home or going for long walks. We also celebrated two of the kids’ birthdays during lockdown. Usually we…

PUNCHY IN PINK Give your wardrobe a feminine feel by mixing contrasting shades of blush and fuchsia, or pair a statement piece with classic neutral shades. GO MELLOW IN YELLOW Yellow can be tricky, but these ladies show us how it’s done. Keep your look fresh by pairing lemon shades with crisp, bright whites. KEEP IT COOL IN BLUE Less shouty but just as chic, classic blue is always fresh. Go girlie with floaty fabrics or give it a fashion-forward spin with prints or textures. ZEST UP IN ORANGE Zest is best to steal the style show and uplift your mood. Fairer complexions should opt for pastels, while those with darker skin tones can rock neons.…

BOOSTS MOISTURE Hyaluronic acid is a skincare celebrity, as it hydrates like no other! This thirst-quencher occurs in skin naturally and helps cells retain water. Pollution and ageing can affect it, so using this serum daily is a moisture magnet, plumping and softening to help prevent fine lines. L’ORÉAL HYALURONIC ACID SERUM £24.99 GREAT FOR A DETOX Azelaic acid has antioxidant properties, which calm redness and irritation, unclog pores to help stop bacteria build-up, and prevent blackheads and breakouts. Use this cream after serum instead of your regular moisturiser for a clearer, more even skin tone and texture. THE ORDINARY AZELAIC ACID SUSPENSION £5.50 CLEAR COMPLEXION Similar to glycolic acid, this refreshes the outer layer of skin, but is better for sensitive complexions as it is gentler and doesn’t penetrate…

Tell us about your new show… During lockdown, we’ve seen more people cooking than ever before, which is one thing we can take as a positive from this situation. We’ve all spent more time at home, so it’s been good to get inventive and come up with new ways to use the ingredients we all know and love. Did you enjoy doing that? Finding new ways to cook the same ingredients each week has been an exciting challenge for me. The recipes use a wide range of ingredients and allow you to make delicious food at home – whether that’s recreating your favourite takeaway or cooking up a storm for your family. If the show can inspire people to keep cooking from scratch, I’ll be really happy. How did the…

In court papers filed last month in her libel case against Coleen, Rebekah Vardy said she had felt suicidal when she was first accused of leaking information about her former friend. But last week, she looked completely content with Jamie, 34, as they holidayed in Ibiza. And friends tell Closer that her positive new outlook is down to the support and comfort she has had from the Leicester City star, as well as famous friends including Piers Morgan and model Caprice, who joined the couple aboard their luxury yacht last week. A source says, “Jamie has been nothing short of fantastic and it’s brought them even closer together – it’s the reason Becky has been able to bounce back to being so happy after being in such a dark place.…

She never imagined she’d have the courage to bare all for her own swimwear range, but Jacqueline Jossa oozed confidence as she posed for bikini snaps to promote her new collection with In The Style – telling followers she’s learned to accept her size 12 figure. POSITIVITY Giving a shout out to “all us women working on loving our bodies,” Jacqueline, 27, explained that “the perfect Instagram pics we see aren’t always the reality”, and said she’s “learned to love both angles”. She added, “I’m a working mum and a size 12 and I can’t walk around looking perfect all the time – and I’ve accepted that that’s completely fine.” Her body positivity messages have won the former EastEnders star a legion of new fans since being crowned queen of…

It’s been two years since Kate Moss quit her party-going lifestyle in favour of clean-living and she showed off the results by looking incredible in a black two-piece on board a yacht in Ibiza. The 46 year old – who once admitted that, despite being a supermodel, she had never stepped foot inside a gym – looked healthier than ever as she was accompanied by her daughter Lila Grace, 17, and boyfriend Nikolai von Bismarck, 33. Kate previously had a reputation as a party girl as a member of the infamous Primrose Hill set, but these days she’s in bed by 11pm most nights, revealing recently, “I’m a bit groggy in the afternoon if I don’t get eight hours of sleep. I take care of myself now – I go…

Mary* , 53, from London, began dating an American businessman online in February, who said he was working in Russia. But in March, shortly before he was meant to fly to London to meet her, he said his flights had been cancelled due to lockdown, his credit card was stolen, and had tested positive with COVID-19. Mary said, “I was so worried about him. He’d made me think he was going to marry me.” She added, “He said he’d tried to get treatment at hospital but couldn’t pay for the medical bills without a credit card, so I transferred him some money.” Over the following months, Mary transferred £17,000 to cover medical costs, while she received updates from doctors and photos of him on a ventilator. She even emailed the…

The pandemic has hit many workplaces and industries hard, with thousands of people out of work and businesses forced to close. But of all the industries affected, I think the beauty industry has had it the worst. Not only did all salons shut during lockdown, but as no one has been going out, product sales have been hit badly too. Thankfully, some salons have reopened and some procedures can go ahead (facials, eyelash and eyebrow treatments, and facial waxing are not allowed). But some can’t, and while I understand we need to be cautious and stop the spread of coronavirus, I don’t think the government understands how important the industry is. A beauty treatment can do a lot for self-esteem and mental health – it makes people feel better about…

Ferne went from a size 12 to an 8 just a year after giving birth to daughter Sunday, going on to become a fitness inspiration and launching her own platform, Embodyment. Telling Closer, “I feel the fittest I’ve ever been,” she reveals what it takes to stay in shape: GET THE BALANCE RIGHT “I stick to a mainly vegetarian diet – I absolutely love vegetables – but I do eat the odd bit of red meat, like chorizo. I drink loads of water and I try to cook with fresh produce. Nine times out of ten, I eat relatively healthily, but it’s all about balance.” MAKE EXERCISE A PRIORITY “I make fitness one of my priorities. I like to train three or four times a week and keep really active.…

‘My sole focus is our baby – nothing else matters’ She gave birth over three months ago but, until now, Lauryn Goodman hasn’t released any details about her new baby, saying she needed time and privacy. But opening up to Closer, she exclusively reveals her child is a gorgeous baby boy – though she’s still yet to name him. Lauryn – who is a single mum but has named the father of her son as England and Manchester City footballer Kyle Walker – says, “As parents, we both knew the gender as soon as I found out I was pregnant [to her surprise, Lauryn found out she was five months’ pregnant at a routine kidney scan] in November. I was super happy because it was the first boy in my…

A huge study, which included hundreds of thousands of people, has yet again shown that eating lots of fruit and veg helps us avoid getting Type 2 diabetes. It also reduces the risk of other conditions, including high blood pressure, heart disease, strokes, dementia and even some cancers. It’s further proof of what we knew already, but what’s encouraging is the fact the study shows you don’t need to eat mountains of veggies – pretty reasonable amounts make a massive difference. EAT A BIT MORE People might be unsure if they should eat five, seven or even ten portions of fruit and veg a day, because the advice seems to change. That’s really irritating, as it confuses people so they give up. In this study, the people who ate the…

CLEAR & CLEAN THE FRIDGE Ensure the coldest part of your fridge is below 5°C (40°F) and your freezer is -18°C (0°F). Don’t overfill it, check the door seals are airtight and clean the back to boost efficiency by up to 30 per cent. PUT A LID ON IT On the electric hob, use the right-sized pan for the ring to avoid using more heat. Boil water, as much as you need, in the kettle first, and use a lid. USE DISHWASHER TRICKS Scrape food off plates first, don’t overfill it, and use the “eco” setting, which washes at a lower temperature with less water, cutting costs. TURN OFF THE TELLY According to the Centre for Sustainable Energy, leaving things on standby accounts for around ten per cent of our…
