And I’m sure devoted hands-on-mum Kate will put aside her grown-up worries (see page 9) to make sure her first-born has the best birthday ever. Haven’t the years flown? It seems like only yesterday that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge introduced their newborn to the world, on the steps of St Mary’s Lindo wing. Since then, as well as melting hearts wherever he goes, he has gained a mischievous sister, a brand-new brother, an American actress as an aunty and he’s started school… Happy birthday, George! • Please let me know your thoughts, siobhan. wykes@hearst.co.uk…

Staring down at the unopened letter in my hand, a strange feeling washed over me. Though I couldn’t have known what the envelope contained, somehow I knew it was important. As soon as I saw the headed paper inside – from the British Association For Adoption And Fostering – I knew it was about my sister, Catherine. This was the moment I’d waited for my entire life. The tears flowed as I thought about the enormity of it. I’d grown up hearing about Catherine from my mum, Adrienne. Mum was just 19 when she fell pregnant in 1964. She’d been serving in the Women’s Auxiliary Air Force and had a relationship with an American airman. She’d hoped they’d raise the baby as a family, but that didn’t work out. Mum…

‘So,wolf-whistling could soon be considered a “hate crime”, punishable by law. At the moment, women can report men who do it to the police, but because almost nothing can be done about it, police chiefs are pushing for it to be made as serious as abuse targeted at people for their sexual orientation, race or religion. It’s not a joke, and it will happen, because this country has lost the plot as far as law and order go. Burglars and drug dealers are often not caught, or given suspended or soft sentences, let out of prison early, and are free to roam the streets to terrorise the public further. Meanwhile, the cops are busy building their case to create new “hate” offences, doing surveys, and looking for what they call…

 She may be 57, but there’s no denying it – Carol Vorderman has the body of a woman half her age. So just how did the presenter achieve those killer curves? She shot to fame in 1982, as the face of quiz show Countdown, and went on to host the much-loved programme for a lengthy 26 years. Yet Carol Vorderman, aka ‘Vorders’, has come a long way from those early days. Today, she’s almost unrecognisable as the frumpily dressed twenty-something we grew up watching on afternoon telly. While she may have wowed audiences with her brain, she’d have won no style awards for her mullet hairdo and oversized 80s jackets and ties. It’s a far cry from the hot cougar who wowed audiences as a jungle seductress in I’m A…

Is my dear cousin losing the plot? I’ve always been close to my cousin, but she’s worrying me lately. Her boyfriend of 12 years walked out last year, and she was devastated. But ever since, she’s obsessed with going to see a medium who promised she’d meet a tall, dark stranger to mend her broken heart. It’s totally blinded her to anyone else! She recently met a lovely (blond) guy, but ended up dumping him, saying this wasn’t her ‘fate’. What rubbish! How do I get through to her?Eve, Sheffield I know many people who get caught up in the promises and predictions of a medium. One high-flying executive friend in particular won’t take a serious business decision without consulting hers. I have respect for those who appear to have these…

Katie Price, 40, former glamour model and now TV personality, has been married three times, and is mum to Harvey, 16, Junior, 13, Princess, 11, Jett, four, and Bunny, three. The show is called My Crazy Life. Is the title spot on? There has been so much pressure in my life in the last six months, and now people can see how I coped with it. I was geared up to film the second series, yet I would never have imagined in a million years what was about to hit me going through this show. A lot of it has been quite dramatic. So, what will we see? Daily life, such as juggling five kids, but also going through a very hard time in my life and trying to cope…

Davina McCall is back with a moving new series of ITV’s Long Lost Family – and tells best that yet again, it will be a case of ‘Don’t forget the hankies’! The 50-year-old mum-of-three, in more amazing shape than ever due to her uber-healthy diet and fitness regime, also defiantly hits back at critics who say she’s looking ‘too thin’ in recent images, and reveals she is the go-to person if any of her mates need therapy! And why not, because Davina has been through a lot. In the past year alone, she split from husband of 17 years, Matthew Robertson. But if there’s one thing you can count on with this lady, you’ll never keep her down. And, whatever you do, don’t ever tell her what she can or cannot…

TRAVEL SNAPSHOT With Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again set to hit the cinemas this week, who isn’t dreaming of escaping to a beautiful Greek island? Whether you’re looking for sandy beaches, a clear blue ocean or mouth-wateringly Greek cuisine, Greece has something for everyone. There are numerous islands that are worth visiting, including Santorini and Mykonos, but the largest island, Crete, is by far the most popular choice. INSIDER’S GUIDE Chania (pronounced Hania) is the second-largest city in Crete, and famous for its Venetian harbour, waterfront restaurants and narrow shopping streets. Or book a boat trip around the magical island of Thodorou. Greek mythology says the island was created when a huge monster threatened a town, and the gods turned it into stone. From the beach, you can see…

FAST YOUR WAY SLIM Angie: Last week, on my social media, I asked my followers what they would most like to read about in my column. After sifting through the questions about Calum – his sleeping habits, which toothbrush he uses and what size his feet are – the number-one request was about healthy dieting and how to keep the weight off. I’ve loved the Hay Diet – which involves not eating starch and protein or fruit and veg at the same meal – for the past 40 years, ever since it was introduced to me by Barry Manilow. But the latest weight-loss method is intermittent fasting, where you alternate cycles of fasting and eating. After having a brainstorm, I’ve put my very own spin on it, as you’ll see…

…how she felt about Corrie’s current storyline Liz has been really conflicted – she’s had a few men in her time, but she has never had an affair with a married man. She’s very moral, but she has really fallen for Johnny. She has tried to tell him that she has no feelings for him to try and put a stop to it. I’ve really enjoyed this storyline. I’m very lucky to be working with such great actors. We’ve seen a different side to her and that’s great. …preferring the high drama or comedy What’s great about playing Liz is that I get to do both. I love working in the medical centre – sometimes me and Louisa, who plays Moira, can’t keep a straight face. …what she thinks of…

Born William Adams to single mum Debra in a poor area of Los Angeles, Will.i.am – who never knew his father – has come a long way since his Californian youth. From co-founding the iconic Black Eyed Peas – one of America’s biggest-selling pop bands, selling 32.5 million albums worldwide – to collaborations with everyone from Cheryl to Britney Spears, to becoming the judge everyone wants a piece of on ITV’s The Voice UK, there’s nobody in the music business like him. Who else, explaining their creativity, would say, ‘I’m good at thinking outside the box, so much that you realise it’s not a box to begin with’?…

Suffering from ‘tech neck’? Constantly stretching and bending over screens and smartphones can cause this area to age more quickly. Here’s how to save your neck. JOWL REDUCER The Strawberry Lift can sculpt the jawline in as little as 12 minutes. Using the new, ‘silent’ ultrasound to tackle loose skin, a small device delivers pulses that bypass the skin’s top layers to stimulate collagen and elastin production in the underlying tissue. For best results, a course of four treatments every two weeks is recommended. It costs £1,500 for the course. NECK WRINKLE ERASER The skin on the neck area produces less collagen, so it tends not to bounce back from the constant stretching and movement. This means horizontal neck lines can deepen and become more visible. A course of six…

‘I was geared up to film the second series but I’d never have imagined in a million years what was about to hit me – it’s been quite dramatic’Katie Price Katie Price is back for a second series of her reality TV show on Quest Red, and it’s her craziest one yet! Watch as the former glamour model’s roller-coaster life is turned upside down once again… but this time, in the most unthinkable way. Between her mum’s tragic lung disease diagnosis, and her decision to finally divorce cheating husband Kieran Hayler, the mum-of-five vows not to take things lying down. One thing that should never be underestimated, however, is the Pricey’s ability to pick herself right back up again.. BOOK ILL WILL – MICHAEL STEWART What happened to Emily Brontë’s…

You could say Il Divo are the original classical boy band. They were first discovered by Simon Cowell and now, with over 30 million albums sold, the band - made up of Carlos Marin, Urs Bühler, Sébastien Izambard and David Miller – are celebrating their 15th anniversary. Here, they explain why they had to break away from Simon’s record label last year and talk about their new sense of freedom… The last time I saw you was at my brother Simon’s This is Your Life show, where you performed – do you remember that? Sébastien: Oh my goodness, that was over 10 years ago! Of course we remember – we were just at the beginning of our career and starting to enjoy all the attention from fans, particularly the ladies.…

With her 895,000 Instagram followers, Davina is a big fan of social media, which makes it hard when she’s trying to get kids Holly, Tilly and Chester off their devices. ‘I can b****y talk!’ she laughs. ‘I’ll be on my phone and I’ll be telling them to get off the iPad! It doesn’t work. Our family is a democracy. They are no longer toddlers that I can tell what to do. ‘So, we all get a vote and come to a family agreement, like, “Let’s not take our devices in the TV room and double-screen, and let’s not have them in the bedroom.” That usually lasts for about a month, and then everyone sneaks them back in again!’…

It’s no secret that Cheryl Tweedy – or is it Cole? Or Fernandez-Versini? – has had her share of very public break-ups, having dealt with two divorces and multiple romantic run-ins before. This time, her split after two years from 24-year-old One Direction star Liam Payne, father to her son Bear, one, means she’ll be facing life as a single mum. And, judging by recent pictures, it looks like history is repeating itself. When Cheryl attended X Factor chief Simon Cowell’s annual summer party, less than a week after announcing her split from Liam, the former Girls Aloud singer was looking very thin – her face, in particular, shockingly gaunt. Fans noticed, too, tweeting, ‘How’s she that skinny?’ and ‘She’s unrecognisable.’ Sadly, it seems that, whenever the naturally slim 35-year-old…
