Time to stop chasing the ideal Tina Malone has undergone a remarkable transformation after shedding more than half her body weight to slim from a size 28 to a trim 8. The Shameless star has endured 14 hours of gruelling surgery along the way, to lift her breasts, neck and chin, and to cut away handfuls of sagging skin caused by losing 12st with a gastric band. Despite looking incredible, she tells Closer she’s not quite done yet – with further nips and tucks planned to tighten her thighs and give her the neat nose she longs for. Posing in a bikini on our shoot, a beaming Tina looks proud – and understandably so. But maybe it’s time to stop chasing the ideal – she’s clearly already living the dream.…

Abigail says: “I didn’t do any research on the clinic beforehand which was a mistake, and after the procedure my body reacted badly to the filler – it solidified in my lip. It went so hard that my lip was starting to rip open. “It took me six months of treatment to have it properly removed, which was excruciating. The whole ordeal was horrific and it really frightened me. It hasn’t put me off surgery but I would always do my research now and make sure I picked the right surgeon. I’ve learnt my lesson.” YOU SAY “Why can’t people be happy with what they’ve got?” Bridget, via Facebook “I think it’s OK to have little tweaks like fillers but the danger is you’ll become addicted.” Caroline, via Facebook “I’ve…

She’s had a turbulent time recently after rumours her five-year marriage to Sam Cooper has broken down, and now Lily Allen has revealed she’s being forced to sell her £4.2million Cotswolds home because of a huge tax bill. In a Tweet last week, which the singer, who is mum to Ethel, four, and Marnie, three, from her marriage to Sam, later deleted, she wrote: “I’m having to sell my home to pay my tax bill.” Lily, 31, turned her back on partying and her pop career when she announced her “retirement” in 2009 after meeting builder Sam – who she married in 2011. But after admitting that being a stay-at-home mum was “boring,” she released a comeback album in 2014, which got off to a promising start but dropped off…

As Michelle Keegan filmed her upcoming TV series, Tina And Bobby, showcasing her new blonde locks last week, insiders say her husband Mark Wright has moved to Manchester to support her – but is struggling to settle in. MARRIAGE ISSUES The couple, who celebrated their first wedding anniversary in May, have been plagued by reports of marriage problems, which escalated again two weeks ago when Michelle, 29, was photographed on set with her handsome Our Girl co-star, Luke Pasqualino. Insiders also tell Closer how the pair, who have bought a house together in Essex, have been arguing over Michelle’s longing to move back to her hometown of Manchester – something Mark, 29, has been reluctant to do. MISSING HOME A source says: “Mark’s always been adamant that he wouldn’t move…

He allegedly filed for formalised joint custody of his baby Freddie last month – and tensions rose last week as Louis Tomlinson’s ex Brian Jungwirth hit out at his girlfriend Daniell Campbell being too close to their child. After Danielle, 21, was seen playing happy families with Louis, 24, and six-month old Freddie on an LA beach, Briana, 24, furiously Tweeted: “You can pretend all you want but you will NEVER be my baby son’s mother.” A source says: “Louis was so upset by Briana’s reaction. She says she hates the fact Danielle gets to spend time with her son.” Now pals say the One Direction star is desperate not to lose Danielle over the feuding. A source says: “Louis adores Danielle and he doesn’t want her to run away…

Will Geddes, MD of International Corporate Protection Group, says: “There have been smaller terrorist attacks using cars in France, and we know ISIS have urged extremists to use vehicles as ‘weapons,’ so more should be done in terms of secure barriers and even traffic controls at and around these kind of events. France has suffered from major terrorist attacks because there are areas of the country where Muslim communities have not been engaged to assist and help the authorities, and are alienated. In the UK we’ve worked hard to tackle this and encourage people to report any concerns over extremism. The UK is in a better position to tackle terrorism.”…

There were already rumours that their split in May wasn’t quite as “amicable” as their joint statement had insisted. But, last week, a bitter spat broke out between Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris when he launched a scathing attack on his ex, accusing her of trying to “tear down” his reputation. The drama unfolded after Taylor’s reps revealed that she wrote Calvin and Rihanna’s hit This Is What You Came For under a pseudonym. BACKLASH In a series of Tweets, Calvin, 32, praised her as an “amazing lyric writer,” before accusing her team of trying to make him look bad for taking credit for the song, and insisting he wrote the music and produced the song. He then referenced Taylor’s feud with Katy Perry, adding: “I know you’re off tour…

LOLA EDWARDS: ‘I’ve been in contact with 1,000 men – but none of them have been boyfriend material’ Lola Edwards, 27, an office worker from London, is so disillusioned by the dating scene she’s considering leaving the country to find love. She says: “It’s been five years since I had my last serious relationship and I’m starting to wonder if I’ll ever find love again. “It’s not as though I’m desperate to get married, but I’d like something more significant than the odd hook-up. “I signed up to internet dating five years ago, before the apps were popular. Since then I’ve dabbled in both and I’ve had loads of matches on Tinder and Happn. I must have interacted with about 1,000 men as a result but, bar the occasional fling,…

‘ Women are after someone perfect’ Nick, 43, is from Bristol and works in IT. “I want a relationship, not a one-night stand. I go on two or three dates a week and I always pay, so dating can cost £1,000 a month. My main problem is that if you aren’t ‘perfect’ the girl moves on to the next man. In the old days, if there was even a hint of a spark you’d try another date. But these days people don’t seem prepared to give up the time to try to make something work. I’ve come away from a lot of nights out thinking there was some potential, only to be blanked by the girl.” ‘ I want sex sooner rather than later’ Steve, 28, from Swindon, works in…

As if sitting school exams wasn’t bad enough, getting the results was always nail-biting. But some of the most important things we learn can’t be measured by exams – something that’s understood by the teachers of 11-year-old Ben Twist, who has autism. Though he tried his hardest, he didn’t pass this year’s SATs. However, in a touching letter – that left his mum in tears – assistant headteacher Ruth Clarkson wrote to Ben to explain that the tests “only measure a little bit of you,” adding: “Ben Twist is made up of many other skills and talents that we at Lansbury Bridge see and measure in other ways.” This included his kindness, ability to make friends and work as part of a team, plus his talent for music, sport and…

She’s recently returned to her leading role in West End show Funny Girl after being signed off for two months with stress and exhaustion, following a much-publicised meltdown and a string of missed performances. But now Sheridan Smith – who first pulled out of a show in March following her father’s cancer diagnosis – has told pals she’s had time to reassess her priorities and is keen to find love. A source says: “Sheridan has been telling friends that she finally feels ready to start dating again. She wants to join a matchmaking service, but has also told pals that she’s open to blind dates if they have someone in mind for her.” The 35-year-old actress has had a string of difficult relationships in the past. She split from Hollyoaks…

A summer walk Exercise can be a trigger for some people, but staying fit and healthy is important, so don’t avoid it altogether. When heading out for a brisk walk or jog, take your preventer inhaler as directed by your GP and carry your reliever inhaler with you. Start off gradually and warm up and cool down properly. Make sure that people you are with are aware you have asthma and, if you start to get symptoms, stop exercising and take your reliever inhaler. Pollen problems It can be virtually impossible to avoid pollen during the summer and it can make asthma worse. But you can help keep it in check by leaving windows closed at night and drying your clothes indoors to avoid letting pollen into the house. When…

“I have a degree in sports science and work as a personal trainer at my local Virgin Active gym – but I’m leaving in a month to go freelance. I’ve been putting a lot of time and energy into setting up my own business, which unfortunately means I’ve lost some of my clients at Virgin, and my income has dropped from £1,400 per month to as little as £400. “I have no money to invest and my income is pretty unstable, so I’m concerned I’ll struggle to get by once I go it alone. I also have £4,000 of credit card debt with an APR of 18 per cent, but I’m paying back £100 a month to try to clear it. I also have a £9,000 student loan, which I…

How was filming in Mallorca? BOBBY: You know what our lot are like, so it’s quite an emotional couple of episodes. We’ve got a break up, a couple of ding-dongs and tears galore… Danielle, do you feel pressure being in a bikini? DANIELLE: I’m not stick-thin and I never will be. And now there are younger girls on the show, so I’m one of the older ones and I’ve not got the same figure I had when I was 20 or 21. When we’re filming I will always have a kaftan but Megan and I were papped outside our hotel one day when we weren’t filming. My hair was up, I wasn’t wearing any make-up and obviously we were all sitting by the pool slouched over. When I looked at…

She admitted she was previously “addicted to lip fillers” in 2012, but that wasn’t enough to deter Chantelle Houghton from plumping up her pout again. Two weeks ago she shared a video on Facebook of her having lip filler injected at former TOWIE star Amy Childs’ beauty salon in Essex, saying it was one of her “regular top-ups.” Then, two days later, Chantelle, 32, unveiled the dramatic effects of the filler when she was snapped in London looking puffy-faced with significantly swollen lips, and what appeared to be needle pricks in-between her eyebrows. DAMAGING HER LOOKS Insiders say the single mum’s friends worry she’s now obsessed with altering her looks in a bid to attract a new man. And to add to her close pals’ fears, top plastic surgeon Mark…

They both left their pop careers and partying behind them and moved to the countryside to raise their children. But last week, having relocated to London, Lily Allen and Billie Piper hit the headlines as their lives seemed to be unravelling. While newly-divorced Billie was seen looking dishevelled with rumoured new boyfriend Johnny Lloyd, Lily ranted about having to sell her family home to pay a tax bill, after splitting with husband Sam Cooper. Closer looks at the reasons behind their turmoil PALS REVEAL: ‘Billie’s grieving for her marriage’ Her divorce from actor Laurence Fox came through just two months ago, but last week Billie Piper was spotted partying with her reported new boyfriend, rocker Johnny Lloyd. Now pals fear the 33-year-old actress – who has sons Winston, seven, and…

Not one to shy away from oversharing, in an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, which aired in the US last week, Kim Kardashian confided in sister Kourtney’s ex-partner Scott Disick that she worried she’d “never be the same down there” if she had a third child. UNDER PRESSURE It’s not the only dilemma Kim, 35 – who’s mum to North, three, and seven-month-old Saint, with husband Kanye West – has faced over expanding her brood. Three months ago, Kim revealed on sister Khloe’s now-cancelled show that Kanye was pressuring her into getting pregnant again, saying: “I was so set on two kids and my life the way that it is. But Kanye’s been mentioning it [another child] every day.” ARGUMENTS Pals say despite Kim’s defiance, rapper Kanye, 39,…

Following the end of her marriage in October, there have been multiple reports that Cheryl’s divorce proceedings from Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini have turned particularly nasty. Last week, reports emerged that the singer had been forced to slap a confidentiality ban on JB to prevent him from speaking about their time together amid claims divorce proceedings could rage on for a year. And now pals reveal Cheryl, 33, has turned to pal Khloe Kardashian, 32 – whose own divorce from Lamar Odom is still not finalised after two and a half years – for advice on how to speed things up. A source says: “Cheryl wants to divorce JB as quickly as possible. She’s worried he’s going to drag his feet while he boosts his public profile. “Cheryl messaged Khloe to ask…

Briton Jen Paul, 40, has lived in Nice for 17 years and says the attack has devastated the community. She says: “I moved to Nice because it’s a safe, quiet seaside town and I thought it would be an ideal place to raise my son. It’s popular with expats and we’ve all come here for a peaceful lifestyle – now that’s been destroyed. “People are scared to go out. Bastille Day is similar to Independence Day in the States, it’s a huge celebration. But now it will be remembered for something horrific.” Jen was out for dinner with her son Hamish, 21, when the lorry struck. She recalls: “We’d decided to have a nice meal then watch the fireworks. Everyone was happy, having a few drinks and it was a…

Ghosting: Abruptly stopping all communication and ignoring your date’s attempts to reach out. You can be in the middle of an online conversation or have even dated for a while and then never hear from them again. Benching: Similar to ghosting, only the person drops back in every now and again just in case they might want to see you in the future. Catfishing: Inventing an incredibly attractive online persona/appearance that bears little or no resemblance to the reality. Textationship: When the main interaction between you both is over text, and perhaps a very rare meeting. Defensive dating: When a person in a shaky relationship attempts to get their ambivalent partner into committing by dating someone else. It can also refer to the non-committal way we approach dating out of…

WHO WORE IT BEST? Jourdan Dunn vs Heidi Klum Dungarees are the wardrobe staple that keep coming back, and they can be styled in very different ways as both these models show. Jourdan pairs hers with trainers and a simple white tee, while Heidi skips a vest altogether. VERDICT Heidi’s bare shoulders remind us of a builder in a heatwave – we prefer Jourdan’s sporty take. STYLE CRUSH! WALK THE LINE Emma Roberts, 25 The actress stands tall in this fun and flirty jumpsuit from New York brand PH5. Its plunging neckline, fitted waist and flared legs flatter Emma’s slimline figure, while her towering platforms finish off the look perfectly.

Long sunny days make for the perfect time to throw a barbecue. “You can barbecue any food,” says Dan Cooper, chef at Grill Academy. “Meat, fish, cheese, vegetables, bread and fruit. Barbecuing gives food a wonderful wood-smoked flavour – cook with the lid down and air vents open to prevent flare-ups.” Here are Dan’s top tips: THE TASTY RUB Coat pork belly or chicken wings in 2tsp sweet paprika, 2tsp ground coriander, 2tsp cumin, 2tsp garlic salt, 2tsp brown sugar and 1tsp cayenne pepper. Leave for an hour to absorb flavour before cooking. DELICIOUS MARINADE Add marinade to your meat right at the end of cooking so it doesn’t burn. Try this recipe: 2tbsp sticky honey, 2tbsp Worcestershire sauce and 2tbsp balsamic vinegar. COOK, DON’T BURN For perfect barbecued burgers…

Where do you shop? Always Asda. When I lived with my parents it was across the road from our house, plus I enjoy having a browse around the clothes, books and CDs. I spend around £45 a week. Describe your daily diet… If I’m in a rush, I make toast with loads of butter or if I have a bit of time, I’ll have Coco Pops with almond milk. I work near a Greggs, which is convenient, so lunch is either a sausage roll and a Belgian bun or a coronation chicken baguette; dinner is rosemary chicken with sweet potato or salmon and veg. If I get peckish I’ll dunk a few Bourbon biscuits in my brew, then I always wonder where my tea’s gone! Is there anything you refuse…

“ MY POCKET MONEY WAS… £5 a week. I’d spend it on tapes, CDs and clothes. MY FIRST JOB WAS… As a sales assistant in New Look. I only earned around £3 an hour as it was such a long time ago. I SPENT MY FIRST PROPER PAY CHEQUE ON… An amplification system for £1,800 so I could perform in my local area. I couldn’t afford it all so my lovely parents chipped in – they’ve always been so supportive. THE MOST EXPENSIVE THING I OWN IS… My little dog, Tink. She’s a five-year-old miniature Yorkshire terrier and is named after my favourite Disney character, Tinkerbell. THE LAST THING I BOUGHT WAS… A £28 pair of jeans from River Island. They’re so comfortable – I wish I’d bought another pair…

My husband thinks I sweep the floor way too much but I generate a lot of crumbs! When did you last say I love you? To my little girl this morning. Who was your first kiss? My husband, when I was 20.

She’s spent £1.5m on over 350 plastic surgery operations in the past, and now Alicia Douvall warns Chantelle that having cosmetic nips and tucks is a slippery slope, after a recent procedure left her fearing for her life. Alicia had buttock implants in 2006 but last year she revealed they had burst. And despite being left with leaking silicone that could poison her bloodstream, she says she’s too scared to see doctors. The former model, 36, says: “I’m terrified I could die but I’m too scared to go under the knife again. I can’t put my body through another operation. “I want to warn Chantelle that having small procedures like lip fillers is just the start. It’s a dangerous path.” Now Alicia, who was pictured looking battered and bruised after…

CLOSER’S THERAPIST EMMA KENNY SAYS: “Lily and Billie are always going to have a wild side to their personalities. And because they’re celebrities, they constantly crave excitement, so when their relationships break down they will tend to revert to type. “Both girls went through a massive change when they moved to the countryside to start “new lives” and now they seem to be going back to what they know. They want to feel young and connected again, but it’s going to take time to adjust to such a shift in lifestyle. “Going through a marriage breakdown can be extremely painful so I’d advise both girls to take their time getting into new relationships and use therapy to work through their problems. Right now they need to focus on…

She’s due to turn 61 later this year and has six children and five grandchildren, but sources say “momager” Kris Jenner wants a baby with her toyboy Corey Gamble – and has even asked daughter Kourtney to be her surrogate. Sources close to the Kardashian matriarch, who has been dating 35-year-old Corey – who works as Justin Bieber’s tour manager – for 18 months, say she’s caving into his wishes to start a family and is considering using the eggs she froze years ago. A source says: “Corey adores children and while he’s great with Kris’ grandkids, he’s desperate for a biological family of his own. Kris realised lately that she may never forgive herself for depriving Corey of becoming a dad and she’d rather have a seventh baby than…

‘Katie always regrets slating her exes publicly’ After drip-feeding titbits about her upcoming pregnancy on social media, last week Stephanie Davies shared images of her growing bump and dropped several bombshells in a tell-all interview, admitting she will “always love” her ex Jeremy McConnell – while accusing him of playing “mind games.” HEARTBROKEN STEPH She revealed: “We decided to start trying in March after Jeremy told me he’d love to have a baby with me.” She also tearfully admitted: “I just feel heartbroken, I loved him so much, I can’t believe it’s come to this.” Following her interview – in which Steph also revealed she was a carrier of the cystic fibrosis gene while Jeremy, 26, had refused to provide a blood sample to check if he was also a…

CLOSER’S PSYCHOLOGIST EMMA KENNY SAYS : “A random attack in a small town popular with tourists makes us feel that nowhere is safe and that anyone could become a victim. Terrorists want to create this fear, which affects everyone. We all need to unite against this, and refuse to succumb to feelings of hate, anger and revenge, which is exactly what they want. Tragically, terror attacks are a real issue so we must be vigilant, but we must keep things in perspective by remembering that the chance of you or your family falling victim is very slim. We must continue to live our lives as best we can. However, if you’re feeling overwhelmed, focus not on what could happen but that these attacks are rare and the vast…

Before meeting Closer for our exclusive photo shoot, Tina Malone teasingly warns us that we might not recognise her. We’ve met the actress many times over the years and followed her dramatic body transformation – from losing more than half her body weight after a gastric band operation to having 11lbs of excess skin removed. But when former Shameless star Tina turns up to the studio this time, we are gobsmacked – she’s dropped to a size 8 and looks like a new woman. TRANSFORMATION “I weighed myself this morning and was running around the house looking for my camera to take a picture of the scales – I’m 8st!” she exclaims. “I’ve not been that weight since I was eight years old!” And as 53-year-old Tina poses confidently in…

‘Countless men came on strong then disappeared’ Closer journalist Mel Fallowfield, 43, spent a week on Tinder – this is what happened… “Setting up my profile on Tinder took a few minutes. I wrote a blurb then put up some photos, including a fairly provocative one in a bikini. “The app works by swiping right if you like someone and left if you don’t. And once you’re matched with someone you can start a conversation. As I wasn’t looking for romance I swiped randomly. I admit that I felt a little frisson every time I got a match and a sense of validation. But it’s false – all people are saying is they vaguely like the look of you. SUGGESTIVE MESSAGES “My first ‘date’ was lunch with a ‘fund manager,’…

When transgender Rajee Narinesingh had lip and cheek fillers, she hoped it would give her the feminine facial features of her idol, actress Angelina Jolie. Instead, she was left with unsightly lumps after an unreputable surgeon injected her face with illegal substances that shockingly included cement and superglue. Rajee, 49, says: “For 10 years, I lived in hell. I was in chronic pain and was diagnosed with depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. I felt like a monster and was too terrified to leave the house. Now, after reconstructive surgery, I’m much more confident and hope to find love.” Rajee was born a boy, but aged 23 realised she was transgender. She says: “In my teens I thought I was gay, but in my 20s, I met a transgender woman and…

She was infamously dropped as a host from The X Factor earlier this year after a series of on-screen gaffes – and last week Caroline Flack came under fire yet again for her “terrible” hosting of Love Island. Fans dubbed Caroline, 36, “sexist” when she commented on the dating reality show that Scott Thomas cried “actual man tears” in regard to an emotional moment for the contestant. She then riled viewers after she was later seen openly flirting with Love Islander Alex Bowen in front of his girlfriend Olivia Buckland. Fans flooded Twitter with complaints. One user wrote: “The only downfall of #LoveIsland is how terrible Caroline Flack is as a presenter.” And another added: “I don’t understand how Caroline Flack lands TV show hostings... She’s so unlikeable to watch!”…

‘ Poor Gazza’s alcohol addiction is truly tragic’ “Last week, England football legend Paul Gascoigne was seen accidentally exposing himself on the street while shopping for booze, cigarettes and painkillers. It was truly tragic. He’s only 49 but he looked like a man twice his age. “Poor Gazza’s been in and out of rehab so many times and has had countless friends try to save him from his devastating decades-long alcohol addiction. Sadly, when someone gets to this stage there’s nothing else you can do – they can’t take their finger off the self-destruct button. With alcoholics, there are deeper reasons as to why they become addicts and, unless these are addressed, there can only be a devastating outcome. It would take a miracle to save Gazza and it’s heartbreaking…

THE MOVES Kirsty recently admitted she’s been in the “best shape of her life” since turning 40. The star works out three times a week, doing 60-minute sessions of resistance work, Pilates – often with an exercise ball – and short bursts of sprinting. She says: “It’s great for fitness, toning up and burning calories.” THE FOODS The mum-of-two says she’s prone to losing weight quickly, thanks to her exercise regime and running around after her boys (Oscar, 10, and Jude, six), so she tries to eat regular meals and doesn’t cut out any food groups.

‘Getting outside will make you feel happier and healthier’ We all tend to feel better in the summer. The weather means we can get out more, and the light mornings and evenings boost our moods. So don’t let the summer pass you by – use it as an excuse to have your healthiest season ever. GET WALKING You don’t have to sweat it out in the gym for hours to get fitter.

Eirstly, I’m not a fan of those brain-training games – I don’t think they do anything at all. Keeping your brain healthy isn’t about doing weird quizzes, it’s about living a healthy lifestyle that boosts it as a by-product. WORK UP A SWEAT Variety is important and, when you exercise, you use your brain in a different way: thinking about where you’re placing your feet when you’re running, tactics for team sports or remembering choreography in dance classes.
