‘Will you marry me?’ asked four-year-old Arthur Holly Willoughby may be happily married – but that’s not to say that she doesn’t get other offers! Just last week, the 37-year-old made her return to This Morning for the first time since last October, having spent two months Down Under, filming I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! And one person who was notably pleased to see her back in action was four-year-old Arthur – who appeared in Channel 4’s Secret Life Of 4-Year-Olds later that evening. The cheeky chappy fell hook, line and sinker for the blonde bombshell. So much so that when he was on the This Morning sofa, he popped the question! After voicing those famous four words, ‘Will you marry me?’ the adorable little chap presented…

He’s been her rock for over 25 years, and never more so than since her devastating Alzheimer’s diagnosis. And tragically, Scott Mitchell, the husband of Dame Barbara Windsor, 81, last week revealed the heartbreaking news that the disease is now so advanced the actress sometimes no longer recognises him. ‘Her confusion is really bad – I spend a lot of time explaining where we are’ ‘I was helping her out of the bath and she suddenly looked at me, very scared, and said, “Sorry, who are you?” admitted Scott. ‘There’s no words that can describe it.’ Speaking on GMB to Susanna Reid and Piers Morgan, Scott, 56, explained, ‘Over the last two weeks, her confusion has got really bad. I spend a lot of time explaining where we are –…

7 STEPS TO LOOK GOOD NAKED! No matter what your shape and size, most of us feel self-conscious about our naked bodies. But let me tell you… there’s truth in the saying beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But before you can share the love, you need to feel good about yourself. Here are my seven steps to feeling better about your body. 1. Firstly, remember your weight doesn’t define you, your attitude does. So, confidence is the key. Develop your self-esteem by looking in the mirror naked and saying, ‘I am a beautiful version of me and I am confident,’ 10 times. While you are repeating this mantra, tap on the top of your head 10 times, then tap your cheeks 10 times, then your jaw line…

Loose Women star Coleen Nolan previously admitted that her 50th milestone had kick-started the worst decade of her life, claiming, ‘I’ve hated it. Since 51, 52, 53, I’ve just not enjoyed it.’ Moreover, it’s been well documented that the 53-year-old has endured a testing 12 months, especially after the breakdown of her 11-year marriage. The mum-of-three announced in February last year that she was splitting from her ex-husband, Ray Fensome, after ‘fighting with every fibre of her being’ to make it work. ‘If I was Coleen Smith from up the road – do you really think they’d be interested?’ And as if that wasn’t enough to deal with, Coleen then took a three-month hiatus from television in September and scrapped her singing tour, after she was branded a ‘bully’ following a…

…new dancing and dating show, Flirty Dancing It’s like a blind date, but rather than going to a bar or restaurant, you have a few minutes to dance with that person to a choreographed routine. Then, you decide if you want to go out on a date. You don’t get to speak, it’s all based on how that dance made you feel. …filming in dramatic locations All of them are placed in what could be scenes from rom-coms. We went to great places and had some lovely times. We went to an empty St Pancras station in the middle of the night. We’ve also been on the edges of piers, dancing at sunsets and sunrises. We’ve been at viewpoints looking over London, amazing art galleries and other romantic locations –…

Didi Conn, who played ‘beauty school dropout’ Frenchy in Grease, is just as sweet in person as her iconic role. And the adorable star is already melting hearts on Dancing On Ice – although at 67, she’s the show’s oldest ever contestant. Didi decided, she says, it was time to do something for herself, after years of caring for her autistic son, Danny, now 26. Granted, not many women her age would opt for learning how to ice skate on live TV – but this Pink Lady loves a challenge… Didi, how are you enjoying your stay in the UK? I’m staying in St Albans, in Hertfordshire, and it’s so pretty! I got lost the other day and spent an hour wandering around before I found my hotel. But it’s such an enchanting…

Olivia knew her husband, Ed, was The One when they met at university, both aged 20. Just like the movies, it was love at first sight! ‘He didn’t really stand a chance,’ she has previously confessed. ‘I had thunderbolts. I went, “I’m going to marry him.”’ They tied the knot in 2001 and have three children – a three-year-old daughter [who they’ve never publicly named] and sons Finn, 14, and Hall, 12, who, says Olivia, don’t give a hoot about her fame. ‘They’re deliciously uninterested in what I do.’ Speaking of the night she won two Baftas in 2013, she said, ‘It was a bit much. I just needed to take the massive Spanx off and calm down. So, I went home. I just wanted Ed and a cup of tea.’ How…

‘Did you hear the one about the drug dealers who avoided jail because the judge was impressed with the spelling and grammar in their ‘marketing’ text messages? Hilarious, isn’t it? Well, it would be if it weren’t true. Two students, Brandon Kerrison and Luke Rance, were found to be selling cannabis – a crime that could have attracted a sentence of up to 26 weeks in jail. But the judge said he didn’t want to ‘fetter the prospects’ of the pair by sending them to prison, so ordered them both to do community service. One of the messages read: “Mad flavours from 10 tonight – let me know for more details.” Not much exceptional spelling or grammar there, as far as I can see. The judge didn’t agree – he…

Would you watch Detainment? It’s a film that has caused uproar, and it’s not hard to see why. The 30-minute drama is based on the interview transcripts and records of Jon Venables and Robert Thompson from when they were arrested for the kidnapping and murder of toddler James Bulger. The movie has won numerous European awards, and is now tipped for an Oscar. Yet, critics have claimed it is too sympathetic to the killers, and James’s parents, Denise Fergus and Ralph Bulger, have slammed the creators of the film. Ralph said, ‘[The producer] may consider it to be in the public domain, but he’s making films and a career from the murder of my son.’ Denise also spoke about her hopes to boycott the film saying, ‘I’ve been told that…

Standing outside in the sunshine on my 50th birthday, I watched two women chatting warmly and my heart swelled. They looked so comfortable, you’d have thought they were old friends. In fact, they were both my mothers. This was the first time all three of us had gathered together. A decade earlier, we hadn’t even known each other’s names. One was Evelyn, who’d given birth to me. The other, Margaret, had adopted me at seven weeks old. Twelve years on from the party, I can still recall that astonishing sense of my past and present finally coming together. I was reunited with my birth mother when I was 40. I don’t imagine many adoptive parents have wanted to navigate the complicated emotional waters of getting to know the woman who…

Gloria Hunniford is a mum-of-three and grandmother of 10. She’s been divorced, remarried and learned to deal with the loss of her daughter and, on Rip Off Britain, she battles consumer issues. In her own words, she’s ‘lived a lot’. So, ask Gloria anything… I feel totally used by my ‘friend’ A very old pal asked me to stay with her recently for a couple of weeks. As I don’t see much of her, and we’re both retired, I jumped at the chance. But, the day after I arrived, she said she had to go into hospital for a minor op. Long story short, I was left playing housewife to her husband! I had to cook, wash, even fetch his medication from the GP. I was shocked and didn’t know how…

With police called to Linda Robson’s house twice in two weeks over her ‘erratic behaviour’, fans have been left wondering what’s going on with the Loose Women panellist? It was reported the 60-year-old’s family dialled 999 after reaching ‘breaking point’ amid fears she might ‘harm herself’. One suggestion is that the grandmother and mum-of-three – who lost 2½st last year – wasn’t sleeping properly over Christmas, and the stress had become too much. Usually outspoken and strong, Linda, who has been married to Mark Dunford for 28 years, has talked before about the pressures the festive season brings. ‘The grandkids come and open Santa’s presents at mine, then I do a big fry-up for everyone.

With DANCING ON ICE’S JAMES ‘I'm doing Phantom Of The Opera for musical week – I need to back it up with decent skating!' MY PRAT FALL… I’m still on a high after my first skate! But before it, warming up in front of the studio audience, I face-planted on the ice, slid, hit the boards, and the audience went deadly quiet. Alex skated over and asked if I was OK – I stood up and everyone cheered! I hope they have it on camera… THE REAL GEMMA The GC is smashing this. I’ve discovered she’s a truly lovely person and is proving all the critics wrong. Yes, she promotes her ‘diva image’, as Coleen Nolan has said, but it’s just a performance.
