Closer 2 August 2016의 목차

Her motto is “never underestimate the Pricey,” and Jordan has a point. Two years ago, her marriage to Kieran Hayler was left in tatters when he cheated with her two best pals while she was pregnant. She could have left him – instead, she salvaged the romance by laying down the law and keeping strict tabs on him. Her zero-tolerance policy raised eyebrows, but the former stripper and sex addict is now a model husband who helps around the home. Kieran tells Closer this week that he does “whatever Katie wants.” Let’s hope that’s enough to keep their marriage strong. LISA BURROW CLOSEREDITOR@CLOSERMAG.CO.UK…

‘Mark fears time apart causes issues for them’ Their one-year marriage is rumoured to be suffering due to their hectic workloads, now sources say Mark Wright is preparing to take a back seat – and change of direction – over his career in a bid to save his relationship with Michelle Keegan. TV CAREERS While actress Michelle, 29, has landed a string of acclaimed TV roles since leaving Corrie in 2014 and has reportedly made over £1million in that time, former TOWIE star Mark, 29, has stuck to his reality-TV roots – fronting short-lived shows such as Party Wright Around The World and Mark Wright’s Hollywood Nights. He also co-presents children’s programme The Dengineers and has a weekly radio show, as well as moonlighting as a DJ and making personal…

‘She’s still petrified he’ll revert back to his old ways’ Ever since she decided to forgive her husband Kieran Hayler for his affairs with two of her closest friends in 2014, Jordan has worked tirelessly to portray the image of an idyllic family life on her Sussex farm. HOUSE HUSBAND Despite previously admitting she once subjected Kieran to a lie detector test, in an interview published last week she claimed she no longer told him what to do so much and instead detailed his life as a loyal house husband. She said: “He does all the school runs, gets Harvey up in the morning and then we spend the day doing the horses and the animals together, unless I’m working… He’s the type of man if you’re going out for…

She couldn’t have appeared more loved-up with Alex Cannon last week, declaring he was her “soul mate” during a TV appearance, but it wasn’t long before it all backfired once again for Vicky Pattison. Just hours after Vicky, 28, gushed about Alex, photos emerged of him kissing his Big Brother co-star Evelyn Ellis, 20, forcing the Geordie Shore star to make a spectacular U-turn, saying: “Turns out I don’t really love him.” The pair have been best friends for years, with Alex, 28, appearing alongside Vicky in her Judge Geordie TV show, and Vicky championing him throughout his time in the Big Brother house, even surprising him by turning up at the finale last week. She’s previously said: “I’m so in love with him,” before revealing they have a pact…

Since the popular app launched, there’s been a spate of reports of risky behaviour and criminal activity worldwide… • In Hulme, Manchester, three students were robbed at knifepoint after playing the game in a park at 8pm. • In North Wales, police spotted two people playing the game on a dual carriageway. • Kids have ended up at a red light district in Bradford and a dogging site in Manchester while searching for characters. • A beach warden in Brean, Somerset, had to call two teen girls back from knee-deep mud as they played the app. • A woman in New Jersey, US, had to be rescued by firemen after getting stuck up a tree while hunting for monsters. • Two men in California, US, fell off a 100ft cliff…

Last week, Sharon Osbourne confirmed she wouldn’t be divorcing her rocker hubby Ozzy, 67, despite his alleged affair with his hair stylist, Michelle Pugh, 45. In May this year, Sharon, 63, kicked him out of their Beverly Hills mansion, but last week, on Good Morning America, Sharon confirmed they were back together, saying: “It’s been very hard, but for me I forgive.” It’s not the first time Ozzy has been accused of infidelity – Sharon revealed in March this year that he’d slept with nannies hired to look after their three children, Aimee, now 32, Kelly, 31, and Jack, 30, when they were younger.…

PROUDLOCK: ‘ Howmuchfurthercanthey push“shockTV?”’ Former Made In Chelsea star Ollie Proudlock, 27, says: “It seems like each month there’s a new reality show that’s more shocking than the last. Each show has to be more extreme to keep people’s interest. Everyone I know was watching Love Island and I’ve heard a lot about Naked Attraction, so they’re obviously the type of shows people are craving. I do wonder how far this can go, seeing as there’s always this need to keep pushing the boundaries. It’s a testament to Made In Chelsea that they’ve never had to ramp up nudity on screen. People watch it as they’ve built up a relationship with the characters, are invested in the storylines and feel like they know us. That’s the key to reality TV…

She’s made the leap from reality star to fitness expert in the three years since she left TOWIE, but Lucy Mecklenburgh admits that her toned figure doesn’t come without some serious hard work. While cutting out alcohol and sticking to a very healthy diet, the star also hits the gym five times a week to achieve her Instagram-perfect body. Posting a sweaty mid-session pic last month, she said: “If you don’t look like this after a workout, you’re not working hard enough.” HEALTHY LIFESTYLE And speaking to Closer, Lucy, 24, insists that while she does allow herself the odd treat, she works harder in the gym the next day to make up for it. She says: “I’ll have a glass of wine and a dessert if I’m out for dinner;…

When animal lover Lucy Gavaghan discovered the cruel conditions caged hens live in to provide cheap eggs for supermarkets, she was horrified – and vowed to help them. The determined teenager set up an online petition, gaining over 280,000 signatures in five months, convincing both Tesco and Morrisons to agree to stop selling caged hen eggs. FAMILY PETS Now Lucy is continuing her campaign – and the tenacious schoolgirl won’t stop until inhumane farming is wiped out. Vegetarian Lucy – who lives near Sheffield with mum Jenny, 47, sister Beth, 16, and her mum’s partner Robin, 41 – first developed a love of hens in 2013, aged 11, after growing attached to a dark brown hen she named “Mrs Hen” who lived in nearby stables. She says: “I’ve always had…

TRADE SECRETSÉ Celebrity facialist Anastasia Achilleos reveals how we can get the most from our lotions and potions. “Most people are afraid to massage their skin, but it can really help to fight puffiness,” she says. “Rather than rubbing in your day cream, help it to absorb properly by massaging it into your face for a minute in the morning and two minutes at night. Using your fingers, massage in upwards strokes from chin to forehead and in alternating circles around your eyes and mouth. This will help the product to fully absorb and improve circulation to leave you looking fresher!” ON TRIAL This week, we tried body shimmers priced from £3.99 – £35. Here are our top three… 1 GOLDEN GLOW For girls who really like to glow, this…

CLOSER PSYCHOLOGIST EMMA KENNY SAYS: “The loss of a child, at any age, is the hardest thing a parent will experience – it goes against the natural order of things. The grief process is complex and, while you’ll never get over the loss, the pain can become bearable. Keeping the child’s memory alive by marking their birthdays and keeping a memory box, can help the healing process. It’s also important to recognise that it can take years until you feel ready to deal with it. Initially, silence is often the natural way of coping with grief, so talking about the child with their siblings – about how old they’d be now and your memories – is a step forward. There is no doubt Sarah will always consider herself…

“I earn £25k as a product developer and Adam works for a local newspaper. We both get paid around the same time, but when the money lands in our accounts we forget we have bills and responsibilities and feel like we can spend, spend, spend! “I’m a shopaholic. My main weakness is clothes, especially from Zara. As I work in fashion I always need to look my best and stay ahead of the trends. Adam is a food snob, so he loves eating out at fancy restaurants. “We ploughed most of our savings into buying a house and doing it up and now we want to be able to save for a new, better-quality kitchen. Over the past few months we’ve started putting money into an ISA because we need…

It’s wonderful to have a tight-knit family, it makes us feel supported and reminds us how precious we are, but it can also mean that our parents, siblings or extended relatives are more likely to interfere in our lives. From Dad questioning your career choices, to Aunt Sue asking when you’re thinking of having children, knowing how to deal with meddling family members is essential. Here’s how: CURB THE INTERFERENCE • DON’T SULK Often when family members question our decisions, we revert to our childlike selves, by sulking or getting angry. Having an “adult” discussion means your viewpoint will be taken more seriously. • KNOW YOUR PLAN! Are you confident in your choices? As long as you know where you’re going in life and why, you shouldn’t feel rattled by…

DON’T MISS FLICKS The Carer When legendary actor Sir Michael Gifford (Brian Cox) is diagnosed with an incurable disease, a young wannabe actress, Dorottya, takes on the role as his carer – but it’s a tough job. Can they get past his old-fashioned ways and constant bickering to form an unlikely friendship? Suicide Squad This hotly anticipated superhero flick sees a gang of mega villains (including Will Smith and Margot Robbie) being hired to fight crime by a top-secret government agency in return for shorter prison sentences. Can these baddies really turn over a new leaf and do some good? Expect plenty of city smashing, fight scenes and action-packed, comic-book drama. ALSO OUT: • Nine Lives Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey plays a father who works too hard and doesn’t see…

How difficult was it breaking up with Arg? It was tough because I don’t really like to talk about my problems. James and I haven’t had any conversations for the whole three months since our split. [Filming the new series] was the first time we were face to face and I had no choice but to address what had happened. I had blocked it out for so long. I went away to Indonesia and Vegas with my friends as I didn’t want to think about it. It was hard and afterwards I had a cry with Chloe [Lewis]. I’m glad it’s done because for me now it means closure. Is there a chance that you and Arg could ever get back together? For me there’s no going back. We have…

THE FIVE-YEAR ENGAGEMENT FUNNY ROMCOM SAT 6 AUG, 9PM, E4 Jason Segel and our very own Emily Blunt star as young lovers who decide to get married and then... find that actually getting married is more difficult than they planned. Violet (Blunt) keeps getting promoted and having to move cities and then pretty much everything that could delay the wedding DOES delay the wedding. D’oh! SUPER 8 ALIEN MONSTER MOVIE SAT 6 AUG, 9PM, C4 It might not have any A-list stars in but J.J. Abrams’ monster flick is a fab kind of modern-day update of classic ’80s coming-of-age flick The Goonies .

Her weight struggles have dominated her life, from a well-documented fight against bulimia, to learning how years of crash dieting had threatened her fertility. Now pals say that Chantelle Houghton’s self-esteem is gradually being eroded as she battles to control her body demons, and has even recently turned to therapy as a last resort. Last week the mum-of-one happily posed for pictures on a sunshine break in Majorca, but pals say she is struggling with her body issues. LONELY NIGHTS Chantelle, 32 – who has daughter Dolly, four, with ex-fiancé Alex Reid – has admitted that being a single mum and spending so many nights at home alone have caused her to gain weight. The 5ft 7 star – who is around a size 12 – says carbs are her…

They formed a close bond when Cheryl mentored Chloe-Jasmine Whichello during The X Factor in 2014, and throughout their time working together Chloe-Jasmine witnessed first-hand the impact the show had on Cheryl and her marriage. Chloe-Jasmine, 25, says: “It was amazing how Cheryl handled and conducted herself because she had so much to deal with on the show. It wasn’t specifically Simon who put a lot of pressure on her, but the show as a whole certainly did. She was emotionally crippled by it all.” When she made a triumphant return to The X Factor UK live shows in the summer of 2014 – following her humilating sacking from the US version of the show in 2011 – Cheryl had only been married to Jean-Bernard for a month. And Chloe-Jasmine…

During their three-year marriage, Kieran Hayler has only ever given one interview without his wife Jordan by his side. But last week marked a turning point for the former stripper at the launch of new reality show Katie Price’s Pony Club, when he spoke to Closer without Jordan – real name Katie Price – after she was taken ill. Seizing the moment, Kieran, 29, opened up about his initial reluctance to work with her beloved horses. He tells Closer: “When I first got with Kate, I didn’t pay much attention to the horses. I always knew they were expensive and a pain in the a**e, but Kate is obsessed with them. When I first started to ride, one chucked me off and it scared me, I didn’t want to get…

She fled to the Mediterranean last week with friends following an explosive bust-up with her Russian fiancé Egor Tarabasov, when police were called to her London home and she was filmed by a neighbour shouting that Egor was “trying to kill” her. In the wake of the drama, fuelled by Lindsay’s worrying updates on social media, including a post claiming she is pregnant, insiders say pals are worried for her wellbeing and have even suggested she goes to therapy to deal with her issues. OUT OF CONTROL A source says: “Lindsay is surrounded by good friends, but she’s feeling very fragile right now. Things have spiralled out of control over the past few weeks and she’s really upset about what the future holds for her. Friends are telling her to…

She’s made no secret of her weight-loss mission following the arrival of her son Saint in December, and regularly shares her dieting fears, frustrations and triumphs on social media. And last week, Kim Kardashian’s dieting determination was lauded when she was snapped looking slimmer than ever in a clingy mini dress. But while there’s no denying the 35-year-old mum-of-two looks incredible, pals reveal her drastic 5st weight loss – going from 14st and a size 16 to 9st and a toned size 8 in just seven months – has come at a hefty price, with fears she’s messing with her health and suffering a range of embarrassing side-effects. MAINTENANCE REGIME A source says: “Kim’s delighted she’s at her lowest weight since having children – but now she’s worried as to…

‘Dear Sharon, When I heard you were staying with Ozzy despite his latest “slip” I wasn’t surprised – there’s so much history there. You’ve been with him since you were 18, you have three children together. It’s hard to let that go. But you could move on and be with someone that deserves you. This isn’t idle talk, I’ve been there with a cheating husband – I’ve lived through the devastation of such a huge betrayal. Nine years ago I discovered my ex had been cheating on me with a close friend. Then our sons, Tyde and Evan, were just two and four. At the time I thought our marriage was happy, though looking back, I realise we’d become more like friends. I’d become suspicious of his behaviour and confronted…

Marnie Simpson revealed she was looking to date girls when she came out as bisexual in March, but her Geordie Shore co-star Chloe Ferry reveals she’s interested in boys again – and predicts her pal will hook up with TOWIE star Lewis Bloor in the Celebrity Big Brother house. Chloe, 21, tells Closer: “I think she’s more into boys at the moment and I reckon she’s going to get it on with Lewis because they’ve known each other for a while. “She won’t let anyone get in her way if she fancies someone. It would take a lot for Marnie to have sex on TV, but she’ll get naked for sure! I’m so excited for her, and I’m nervous. I think she’s going to do well; she’s changed a lot…

She shot to fame after appearing on The X Factor in 2010, dividing the public with her eccentric style and cocky performances. But after finishing in seventh place, Katie soon hit the headlines for her bitter war of words with her former mentor, Cheryl, after the Geordie singer revealed in her autobiography she only picked Katie to make “good TV.” Proving she wasn’t one to bite her tongue, Katie branded Cheryl a “nasty” person and criticised her for putting on an act during the show. Katie then moved to LA where she joined rock band Red Velvet Lovers. After keeping a relatively low profile, the singer was under the spotlight again when she wed US model Brad Alphonso in September 2012 after two months of dating, only to call the…

KYLIE: ‘Our summer wedding will be perfect’ They officially announced their engagement in February, just five months after they started dating, but sources close to Kylie Minogue say she’s set to marry her actor fiancé, Joshua Sasse, in the next few weeks. The pair have been inseparable since meeting on the set of TV show Galavant last September, with Kylie, 48, calling Joshua, 28, “the love of my life.” A source says: “They’ve had an idyllic few months together, but Kylie has work commitments in September, which is why they want to marry now. It’s going to be a magical celebration.” Kylie has previously opened up about her failed past relationships, blaming her workaholic nature and saying that men failed “to be understanding of my career.” But sources close to…

WHO WORE IT BEST? Daisy Lowe vs Amber Le Bon Trendsetters Daisy and Amber are regulars on the party scene, so they know how to make an entrance. And this super low–cut, yellow number is guaranteed to steal the show. Both ladies have styled the fancy frock in a similar fashion, opting for a relaxed updo, gold heels, metallic arm candy and pared-back make-up. VERDICT With their near-identical styling touches, it’s too close to call. Yellow is a tricky colour to wear, but Daisy and Amber work this seriously seductive style to perfection. BLOOMIN' LOVELY Blake Lively, 28 When it comes to maternity fashion, no one does it better than actress Blake. Who says pregnancy means you can’t wear a tie-top dress with a thigh-high split? Not Blake. The mum-to-be…

Next time you feel under the weather, think twice before reaching for the medicine cabinet. Many experts now believe that eating certain foods may be more beneficial than popping a pill. “Research shows that if you’re in pain, there’s usually inflammation present,” says nutritionist Shona Wilkinson. “Inflammation can be beneficial. For example, if you break your arm, it swells because it’s your body’s way of protecting itself. But if inflammation is constant, this can lead to aches and pains. “Our modern diet – with its processed foods and hydrogenated fats – can trigger inflammation, which can make you more susceptible to arthritis, body aches, heart disease and even cancer. But on the flip side, certain foods have natural anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and fatty acids that may help to ease pain.” For…

Where do you shop? I get most of my food delivered from Sainsbury’s and I buy meat from my local butcher. I spend £120-£150 a week for me and my four kids [Josh, 13, Harry, 11, Alfie, six, and Ella, 22 months], but I’ll eat out a few times, too. What’s your typical daily diet? Breakfast will either be porridge with berries and honey or bacon on brown toast with HP Fruity Sauce. I also like protein pancakes – made with eggs, oats and protein powder. My typical lunch is a chicken sandwich or salad and dinner is grilled chicken with pesto, baked potato and veg. I snack on bananas, tangerines or melon. Is there anything you refuse to eat? Yes, mushrooms terrify me! I m also allergic to mussels…

People like numbers and targets, so apps can be a good way of setting goals to be healthier and monitor progress. They reveal the reality of what we’re eating or how much we’re moving, too. They’re new, so some argue there isn’t much evidence behind how effective they are, but that doesn’t matter – if an app helps you get to the gym, that’s your evidence! Others warn they can make you health obsessed, but if you’re going to obsess about health, you don’t need an app – you can obsessively Google symptoms. Being interested in your health is a good thing – just choose the right apps. ACTIVITY APPS Some track distance and speed for walking, running and cycling, help you set goals and allow other app users to…

NEW CARD ALERT! Sainsbury’s has just launched the cheapest 40-month 0% balance transfer credit card on the market, with a one-off 2.48% fee (beating the 2.5% fee from MBNA). The AA has a great deal too, offering 24 months 0% with no fee. A good way to spread the cost of your summer holiday. BREXIT HOLIDAY REASSURANCE Despite Brexit, all existing rules from the EU – like caps on mobile roaming, using EHICs on holiday and claiming compensation for flight delays – remain unchanged and are likely to stay that way for at least two years.…

AGATHA RAISIN STAR JAMIE GLOVER, 47, TAKES OUR QUIZ… What are you scared of? I don’t like heights and I’m not keen on spiders. What’s your worst habit? Nibbling at my nails, then telling off my daughter, Edie [15] for biting hers. If you were an animal, what would you be and why? Cats have it sorted – lots of sleeping and affection. Who was your first kiss? Domino Harvey, who later became a famous bounty hunter in LA before her death in 2005. We were 10 and she was very pretty. How do you cope with conflict? I’d rather not have a fight, but I’ll step up if someone’s being taken advantage of. Describe yourself in three words… Gorgeous, brilliant and deluded. • Comedy-drama Agatha Raisin is out on…

The super-hot Chris Hemsworth is back to reprise his role as hunky Eric in this prequel-slash-sequel – The Huntsman: Winter’s War – and trust us you are in for a treat. Plus you don’t even need to see the first film, Snow White And The Huntsman , to enjoy this fantasy epic, starring newcomers, the brilliant Emily Blunt and Jessica Chastain. Inspired by fairy tales Snow White and The Snow Queen, we discover that evil Queen Ravenna has an estranged sister Freya (Blunt), who after seeing her baby murdered turns into an Ice Queen with chilling powers. Freya surrounds herself with a tough army of huntsmen – who she’s forbidden to ever find love in order to secure their loyalty. But two of her best warriors, Eric and Sara (Chastain),…

GRANT’S BACK EASTENDERS His return to visit his dying ma Peggy was short-lived – but fear not because Grant Mitchell (aka Ross Kemp) is back on screen again, hopefully to pick up where he left off with Shaz after that tantalising moment last time. He’s out for revenge – he has a spot of unfinished business with brother Phil – and, if his luck’s in, perhaps he’ll strike lucky on the woman front (ooh!). Elsewhere, Ben and Jay realise they only have each other, and horrid Babe goes back to terrorising the Cokers. HOLLYOAKS IT’S DUNCAN JAMES! After lots of chat about the fact boyband’s finest – Duncan James – is joining Hollyoaks, at last here he is – rocking up in Friday’s episode (don’t miss!). In a week where…

She’s worked hard to transform her body, overhauling her diet by swapping wild nights out for daily gym sessions. But pals say Lauren Goodger, 29, is devastated after regaining some of the weight. After being pictured looking a little curvier last week, the size 10-12 star is now putting herself under pressure to rapidly slim down. TV COMEBACK A source says: “Everyone’s loved seeing Lauren enjoying herself, but it means she’s put on a bit of weight. She’s been drinking wine most nights and she’s really upset with herself for relaxing her diet, because she worked so hard to get to where she was and she dreads slipping back. She feels it’s a vicious circle. Her weight gain has made her feel low and she uses food for comfort.” But…

Cheryl isn’t the only X Factor judge to have seen a relationship crumble during a stint on the judging panel. One of the most dramatic relationship dramas happened in 2014, when Mel B was rumoured to have had a serious fallout with husband Stephen Belafonte just before the series finale. The former Spice Girl was forced to miss one of the final shows, and when she returned she appeared to have bruising on her face and had removed her wedding ring. However, they both denied anything had gone on between them. The previous year, Nicole Scherzinger suffered a painful split from on/off boyfriend Lewis Hamilton, just before the auditions began, and was reported to have been tearful during filming. In 2012, Tulisa Contostavlos announced her split from actor Jack O’Connell,…

They were first linked back in April – just weeks after Laurence Fox’s split from Billie Piper – but last week rumours of a romance were reignited when Vogue Williams went for dinner with the actor. The pair – who met on reality show Bear Grylls: Mission Survive last year – posed for a Twitter selfie with the caption: “They don’t serve mealworms here @bearGrylls and we are grateful. So grateful.” NOT SPEAKING But the 30-year-old TV presenter recently told Closer that it was “weird” to be linked to Laurence, 38. She says: “We went out for a drink, but that was it... It’s weird that people are putting us together and it’s very untrue. I don’t even know where it came from – it’s been sly.” Vogue announced she…

Since its launch last month, Pokémon Go has soared in popularity, with thousands of people downloading the app, which challenges users to roam the real world in search of virtual cartoon monsters. But the Nintendo game – which uses mobile phone GPS technology to track the digital monsters – has already sparked controversy, with players falling victim to robberies and assaults while distracted by the game, and children being led to dangerous and isolated locations. As well as putting people in potentially harmful situations, concerns have been raised about the addictive potential of the game. Sophia Pedraza, 26, from London, is so hooked on Pokémon Go she’s quit her teaching job to play the game for eight hours a day and worryingly hopes to make a living by selling accounts…

The results of her dramatic weight loss were clear to see as she was snapped in a figure-hugging jumpsuit for her grandmother’s birthday celebrations in San Diego last week. But while many of Khloe Kardashian’s fans were quick to praise the star for her slim frame, others feared she may have taken her weight-loss too far. One follower took to Instagram to comment on one of Khloe’s photos, writing: “She’s too tiny!” While another added: “I miss the old Khloe, what happened.” And a third pleaded with the star, writing: “OMG you look so skinny, no more.” Over the past two and half years, 32-year-old Khloe has shed 3st by overhauling her diet and embarking on an intense fitness regime. But in recent months, 5ft 10 Khloe appears to have…

‘ It’s madness for young, beautiful girls to have cosmetic work!’ Last week, a top cosmetic surgeon revealed the best age to go under the knife for certain procedures, saying women should wait until their mid-20s before thinking about lip fillers, and until they’re 45 before getting Botox. It’s great that someone’s highlighting the fact that too many people are getting these procedures done when they’re too young. Take someone like reality star Kylie Jenner, who had lip fillers aged 17, when the face is still changing – it’s crazy! When I was her age, we’d just use a lip liner if we wanted bigger lips. Everyone has their insecurities growing up but, nowadays, young girls want a quick fix and a dramatic change. I post a lot of selfies,…

GRANT BOVEY, 55 MOST LIKELY TO... Dish the dirt The property magnate is best-known for his 13-year marriage to Anthea Turner – but they divorced in 2015 amid claims he’d cheated with socialite Zoe de Mallet Morgan, who he recently split from. LEWIS BLOOR, 26 MOST LIKELY TO... Flirt with the girls TOWIE hunk Lewis isn’t afraid of breaking a few hearts. He previously said: “I’m not really someone who’s had a lot of relationships – I’ve only had [them] with someone worth giving up the single life for.” CHLOE KHAN, 25 MOST LIKELY TO... Brag about her bling lifestyle She found fame on X Factor in 2010, but now has her own webcam business and lives in LA. She says: “My lifestyle is pretty incredible now – it’s mansions…

‘Lily has put her past behind her… she’s in a good place’ She’s been through a difficult few months, with reports that she’s set to file for divorce from her husband of five years, builder Sam Cooper. But as she enjoyed a day at the beach in Los Angeles recently, Lily Allen looked happy and healthy – and pals say it’s down to her blossoming relationship with DJ Daniel London. SECRET ROMANCE A source close to the singer reveals: “Lily has had a tough few months, but now she finally feels like she can live life on her own terms.
