Standing up to the bullies In a world where everyone is entitled to their opinion and free to express it on social media, it seems no one is safe from online trolling. Last week, Jess Wright and Jennifer Metcalfe spoke out about being body shamed, defiantly hitting back and insisting they won’t let cruel comments make them insecure. On p18, we investigate the police war against the trolls. We spoke to a former troll who believed because others post horrible comments, it was acceptable to join in. Social media has given our generation the privilege of being able to speak to millions, but perhaps we need to remember an old saying – if you’ve nothing nice to say, say nothing.…

‘Kim worries more stories will emerge’ • Kim has ‘bitter rows’ with husband Kanye over sex scandal • Reality star is photographed as part of a ‘damage-limitation plan’ • ‘Tearful’ Kim is desperate to restore her reputation as a loving mum She has an insatiable appetite for dominating headlines with her incredible curves – and has achieved it with everything from her attempt to break the internet with a raunchy nude shoot in 2014 to her naked selfie in March. Last week was no exception for Kim Kardashian as she unveiled the results of her 4st weight-loss following the arrival of her son Saint in December. PUBLICITY STUNT As she played with Saint and his sister, North, three, on a Mexican beach, Kim, 35, looked flawless in a nude bikini,…

They were pictured together for the first time since their split last week – now insiders fear Kerry Katona is starting to cut herself off from friends to spend all her time with her ex George Kay. Insiders say George has been spending an increasing amount of time at Kerry’s home in Crowborough, East Sussex, since his trial – which saw him accused of assaulting Kerry in October and possessing a banned weapon – collapsed after she withdrew her statement. The bodybuilder – who is father to Kerry’s two-year-old daughter Dylan Jorge – had always denied the charges. A source says: “George has been staying there [at Kerry’s home] a lot. At first, it was just to spend time with DJ but he’s staying there pretty much all of the…

With more than two billion people worldwide using social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter, it’s never been easier to stay in touch with friends and family members. However, being online so much can also come at a devastating cost. Recent statistics reveal four in 10 people have received some form of online harassment and, last week, the Metropolitan Police announced plans to invest £1.7 million in a specialist “troll-hunting” unit in a bid to combat online abuse. The Online Hate Crime Hub – labelled the “thought police” by some critics who fear it will limit freedom of speech – comes after a recent surge in reports of racist and sexist abuse on social media. The crime hub will seek out anything they deem inappropriate on social networks, then…

She’s previously joked about her lack of TV success, but Kelly Brook’s career was no laughing matter last week when reports emerged that her planned appearance on ITV’s Countrywise was dropped. The blow came a week after she opened up about her personal life, admitting: “I see it as a success that I’m 36 and still not married with children.” IN DENIAL But insiders say that despite putting on a brave face, Kelly is devastated. A source says: “Kelly is barely holding it together; she doesn’t know if her career can survive another knock. After many attempts to land a TV break, she was pinning all her hopes on this being her year. She’s living in denial that it could all turn around.” Kelly is no stranger to career setbacks.…

She’s transformed her body, earned her first million this year, and made the successful transition from a boozy party girl on Geordie Shore to a prime time TV presenter – but Vicky Pattison tells Closer she still can’t get a date! Despite being pictured with fitness fanatic Jordan Wright last month, Vicky tells us he’s just a mate. She also reveals she was shockingly turned down from exclusive dating app Raya, which allegedly rates you on your attractiveness and Instagram following before you’re allowed to join. LOOKING FOR LOVE Meeting Vicky lying in bed at her London hotel suite, she’s her usual feisty self although clearly exhausted – which is no surprise considering her hectic schedule. She’s currently launching her latest fashion range with Honeyz, as well as filming a…

Their divorce hearing made headlines last week after shocking details of their “volatile” marriage were exposed – but Amber Heard managed to end bitter proceedings against ex-husband Johnny Depp on a positive note by donating her entire settlement to charity. In a statement released as the divorce was finalised, Amber said all £5.3m would go to charities for abused women and ill children. Amber, 30, had turned up to court in May with bruising to her face, but later withdrew allegations Johnny had been physically abusive during their 18-month marriage. During the hearing, dramatic evidence included photos taken when Johnny reportedly cut his fingertip and dipped the bloodied stump in paint to write “Billy Bob Thornton” and “Easy Amber” after accusing her of having an affair with the actor –…

JESS: ‘ I won’t be broken by hurtful photos’ She found herself at the centre of a body-shaming controversy last week after photos of her relaxing by a pool in LA were published. But TOWIE star Jess Wright fought back with an Instagram video, insisting that the photos were “invasive, unflattering and upsetting.” Posing in front of a mirror in a bikini, the 30-year-old added that she wanted to show off her figure “real, unedited…flaws and all.” She also explained in the lengthy post: “Not only are these photos hurtful, but I feel they aren’t a true representation of me and how I look right now. Are they going to break me?.... Absolutely not. “I’ve enjoyed my past year and, yes, I’ll be the first to say I have put…

TRADE SECRETS… Whether you have sensitive skin or you’re going away and need to save space in your suitcase, this hard-working face cloth is your answer. A knitted silk flannel, it removes all signs of make-up without the need for a face wash – just warm water. We were amazed at how well it banished even the trickiest mascara, and our skin felt silky soft and sting-free afterwards. It’s machine washable, too, so you can clean and reuse again. ON TRIAL This week, we tried mascaras priced from £2.99-£25. Here are our top three... VOLUME BOOST The fluffy brush coated lashes in jet-black colour, which gave our flutter a much fuller finish. It lasted well, yet washed away surprisingly easily at the end of the day. DOUBLE DUTY This one…

Whether your kids are desperate to get back into their uniform or already dreading the beginning of the new school term, the end of the holidays is almost upon us. But while you hunt for their ties and pencil cases, Closer is here to help make the new term easy for both new pupils and the back-to-schoolers. Child psychologist Dr Angharad Rudkin says: “It’s important to explain to your child gently that school will be starting so they’re aware, but never speak about it in a negative fashion as children will pick up on that. With a smile on your face, explain to them that they’ll soon be going to school and seeing all their friends – or indeed making new friends!” And Dr Rudkin suggests getting them into a…

Where do you shop? I go to my local Co-op every other day to stock up on fresh food, and I’ll go to Waitrose once a week. I buy all my meat and eggs from Hepburns butcher in Essex. I love the idea that I’m supporting local businesses and buying food produced in my own area. I easily spend over £100 a week. What is your daily diet? Breakfast is an omelette with leftover veg from the night before, guacamole and a black coffee. Lunch is prawn and quinoa salad with onions and coriander. For dinner I’ll make steak wraps using baby gem lettuce with sweet potato on the side, or a chilli con carne or Thai green curry. Is there anything you refuse to eat? I try to avoid…

“My fiancé Gary and I are saving for a church wedding and hotel reception. Our two-year-old, Florence, has cystic fibrosis; and I’m my mum’s main carer as she suffers with autoimmune condition myasthenia gravis, so she lives with us. Gary is a library assistant, earning £18.5k, and I work three days a week as a children’s nurse earning £24.5k, but I’m changing jobs to be a palliative care nurse and will earn just £22k – yet I need more flexibility to attend hospital appointments with my family. “My lower salary means I won’t get London weighting any more, so my wage will drop by £4.5k a year. But even with the pay cut, I still earn too much to receive a carer’s allowance – although I get £21 a week…

The last time we saw her, it seemed loveable singleton Bridget Jones had finally found her happily ever after with Mark Darcy. Fast forward 12 years, however, and Bridget’s back for Bridget Jones’s Baby. This time, she’s no longer with Mark – and has found herself unexpectedly pregnant! Oscar winners Renée Zellweger and Colin Firth are joined by Grey’s Anatomy’s Patrick Dempsey for the next instalment of the highly anticipated British rom-com. Based on the books by Helen Fielding, and directed by Sharon Maguire, the third film sees Bridget (Zellweger) – now forty-something and single – putting her love life on hold and instead focusing on her career and reconnecting with old friends. For once, Bridget has everything under control – what could possibly go wrong? Well, it’s Bridget, so…

What made you want to play a comedy legend like Mrs Slocombe? I’ve done lots of sitcoms, but nothing of the iconic status of Are You Being Served? I also knew Mollie Sugden, who originally played her, as well as John Inman, who played Mr Humphries, so I have a connection to the show. I’ve watched every episode over and over. I was a big fan. That must have made you pretty nervous… It’s daunting to play a very well-known character, but we weren’t doing impressions. I wasn’t playing Mollie playing Mrs Slocombe. I also wear a fat suit, not to make me fat, but to make me sturdier. You’ve had cosmetic surgery – would you consider having more work done in the future? I’ll never stop. If every now…

Love will be a big deal in the coming year for you, whether you’re falling in love for the first time, or falling in love all over again with the same person.

While Michelle Keegan was busy making headlines last week after being compared to Hollywood actress Charlize Theron, the former Corrie star’s husband Mark Wright was engulfed in a media storm of his own when he and brother Joshua were embroiled in a public spat with Danny Dyer. TWITTER FEUD For a seemingly unknown reason, EastEnders star Danny, 39, mocked Mark’s radio show and his promotion of a yoghurt brand on Twitter last week, leading Mark’s 26-year-old brother, footballer Josh, to come out in his defence. Josh revealed how Mark had “slapped” Danny during the Soccer Aid charity football match in June, Tweeting: “You must still be hurting from when Mark gave you a slap in the changing room.” FAMILY WOES Now insiders say Michelle, 29, is fuming that Mark’s brother…

£6K ON ‘SKINNY FACIALS’ As Closer reported in February, Kim had toning “ice” facials three times a week, at £500 each, to help her face appear thinner. £6K ON DAILY ‘SKINNY SHOTS’ In June, Closer revealed Kim had become hooked on daily skinny shots – fat-burning injections that speed up the metabolism – and has a nurse administer them at a cost of £300 per day. £9,600 ON FAT FREEZING At the start of August, we revealed she was having fat-freezing on her thighs, stomach and bottom on a weekly basis. The non-invasive procedure – at £800 a session per area – freezes fat cells, and the body eliminates it through the liver and kidneys over three months. £2K ON SKIN TIGHTENING Kim’s cosmetic dermatologist Dr Simon Ouria performed a…

‘I knew I needed to get away – I was petrified’ Their eight-year relationship ended dramatically last June amid cheating allegations and a high-profile sexting scandal – but despite the controversy, Karen Danczuk and her Labour MP ex-husband Simon have always managed to remain close for the sake of their two boys. However, last week, the relationship took a sinister turn when Karen was rushed to hospital following a stormy row at their family holiday home in Alicante, Spain, during which she claims Simon threw her mobile phone into a pool and shouted abuse before kicking a door, which caused a heavy glass panel to fall on the mum-of-two. As Closer went to press, Greater Manchester Police confirmed “enquiries are ongoing” after receiving a complaint about the incident from a…

Hayley* was 22 when she received a prison sentence for sending abusive and threatening Twitter messages. She says: “I’m disgusted by my behaviour. I was insecure and I took it out on someone else, but there’s no excuse. I can’t justify my actions. “I’d been drinking heavily when I sent abusive messages to a public figure using an anonymous account. Hiding behind a computer, I thought, ‘It’s only Twitter.’ There’s also a ‘mob mentality’– I’d seen other people posting horrible things, so I thought it was OK to join the crowd. But, the next day, reading what I’d posted, I felt sick and disgusted. “A month later, I discovered my Tweet had been reported to the police. I was stunned and the reality of what I’d said sunk in. I…

She made an emotional farewell to the show that made her famous last week, bowing out of TOWIE after six years on screen. Now Billie Faiers has revealed she made the decision to quit the show so she can dedicate her time to planning h dream wedding and having another baby with her fiancé Greg Shepherd. Billie – who is mum to two-year-old Nelly – says: “TOWIE was amazing, but it’s time to start a new chapter. I want to fall pregnant by Christmas, and it’s finally time to get stuck into wedding plans. I want the ceremony to be abroad, and I’m a perfectionist so I’m looking forward to planning it all. Greg will get involved in the planning too, but his priority is having another baby. Our families…

It felt like the end of an era when Charlotte Crosby announced in June that she was leaving Geordie Shore following a row with on/off love interest Gary “Gaz” Beadle. But even though she won’t be appearing on screen, Charlotte is as tight as ever with her old castmates – and the star is determined to carve out a career for herself away from the Newcastle party scene. After overhauling her booze-fuelled lifestyle and shedding 21/2st – she dropped four dress sizes two years ago, going from a size 16 to a slender 8 – Charlotte has defied her critics by keeping the weight off. And the 26-year-old says she’s never felt better! PRIORITISING EXERCISE She says: “I still work out four times a week, and I always feel body…

After endless divorce rumours and accusations they have an open relationship, Will Smith finally spoke out on his 19-year marriage to Jada Pinkett Smith last week, revealing they’d “done a lot of counselling.” Rumours around the Hollywood couple’s marriage gained momentum in 2013, when Jada revealed they do “whatever we want.” Will was also romantically linked to co-star Margot Robbie – something they denied. Will – who has Jaden, 18, and Willow, 15, with Jada – says: “What happens in a marriage once you do counselling, the truth comes out. It creates a dark moment. But for me it’s the dark before the dawn.”…

She’s admitted to struggling with body hang-ups in the past, and last week Jennifer Metcalfe revealed she was also the victim of online bullies. In an interview, Jennifer, 33, said: “Sometimes I get trolled... I get told you can land a plane on my forehead; my bum’s the size of a dinosaur. I think it’s hilarious! I’m like, to be fair, it is a canny forehead and, yes, my bum is huge.” The defiant Hollyoaks star refuses to let the body-shamers beat her, however, and has finally accepted her curves. She added: “Know what your flaws and weaknesses are and then they [trolls] can’t say it. The only opinion that matters is those who support me – my friends and family.” Jennifer – who previously described her bum as “quite…

After Ferne McCann opened up about having a nose job last week, Vicky Pattison admits she warned her best pal off having surgery. The girls starred in I’m A Celeb! together last year and recently filmed The Only Way is Amalfi for This Morning in Italy. Vicky, who had breast surgery two years ago to go from a 32B to a D-cup, says: “I think Ferne looks absolutely stunning with her new nose, but I thought she looked incredible beforehand. “When we were in the jungle together, she was talking to me and [’80s singer] Tony Hadley about it and he said: ‘But you can’t touch your face!’ and I said: ‘Yeah, I totally agree!’ She’s a gorgeous girl and her nose gave her character before and I could never…

WHO WORE IT BEST? Rihanna vs Cara Delevingne Embroidery has made a huge comeback – and everyone from singer Rihanna to model Cara is wearing it. Covered in cool patterns and lined in shearling, this Gucci jacket is perfect for high-low dressing. Ri wears hers off the shoulder with a breezy dress, while Cara goes double denim and teams it with ripped jeans. VERDICT Rihanna wins extra points by pairing it with an evening dress for a unique spin. BEAUTY & THE EAST Lauren Hutton, 27 The former MIC star – who counts Spencer Matthews as an ex – looks stunning in this floral Burberry dress. We especially love the cut-out detail, which adds a racy edge. The good news is that the frock is available to buy; the bad…

THE MOVES She has an incredible figure, so it’s a surprise that mum-of-one Kate hates the gym. She says: “I just can’t make it part of my daily life. I run for half an hour at a time, but never outdoors as I hate exercising in public.” Celeb trainer Ramona Braganza also uses her 321 method with Kate – it’s three parts cardio, two parts circuit training and one part core strengthening. THE FOODS The actress follows the theory that you need carbs, protein and fats in every meal. Breakfast is hard-boiled eggs or an omelette with tomato, while lunch is a chicken and veggie wrap; dinner is grilled fish with veg. But Kate doesn’t deny herself the odd treat. She says: “I’m not a model. I’d hate to be…

When I was a young woman, social media didn’t exist. So after being unceremoniously dumped, the only info I got about my ex was through the grapevine. As a result I was able to forget about him fairly quickly. These days it’s far too easy to find out what your ex is up to on Facebook or Instagram, and research has found that social media makes post break-up grief more difficult to deal with. Here’s how to cope... TAKE CONTROL OF SOCIAL MEDIA • DON’T TRUST WHAT YOU SEE. Your ex may be smiling and looking like they’re having the time of their life, but it’s not real. No one posts a bad picture. Looking at their life will encourage you to imagine they’re thinking and feeling things they probably…

Recent research showed that 90 per cent of opticians see more eye health problems now compared to five years ago. Not good! Here’s how to avoid and soothe the most common problems – from itchy to twitchy, dry to styes – so your peepers remain perfectly healthy. ITCHY EYES Most eyes get itchy thanks to allergies, but it can also be an infection. Allergies can develop at any time, so just because you’ve never had hayfever before, it doesn’t mean you can’t have it now. Aside from pollen, you could be allergic to an ingredient in your mascara, dust in your bedroom, your fabric conditioner, a scented candle or your new holiday perfume. Try not to keep rubbing your eyes – that causes more histamine to be released, which makes…

“MY POCKET MONEY WAS… A few quid here and there, but I had to work for it. MY FIRST JOB WAS… Waitressing when I was 16; I used to earn £30 a night. I enjoyed it because I loved being in a social environment. I SPENT MY FIRST PROPER PAY CHEQUE ON… Designer labels. As a teenager I’d save up to buy a flashy keyring or a belt. MY BIGGEST IMPULSE PURCHASE WAS… A black Versace jacket – it cost me £9,000. THE MOST EXPENSIVE THING I OWN IS… I can’t resist a Hermès Birkin bag. I own seven in total and they set me back around £7,000 each. EVER MADE A FINANCIAL MISTAKE? I only spend what I’ve got. I don’t have any credit cards, so if I don’t…

What can we expect from this feature-length anniversary episode? Connie’s going to be involved in a car accident that sees her and her beloved daughter Grace at the bottom of a ravine… She gets thrown from the car and I spent a week filming me crawling around covered in cuts, bruises, blood and mud. Basically, I spent 12 hours a day for a week getting really upset! I ended up with this constant emotional hangover…. Did you have to spend a long time in make-up? It took more than an hour to get the prosthetic make-up sorted and, if in doubt, they just poured on more fake blood. I also wore a wig because Connie’s hair was so disgusting after the crash – all matted and bloody. My two teenage…

He hit the headlines when his kiss on the lips with his mum infamously aired on The Baby Diaries earlier this year – and now insiders say that after all the controversy, Paul Knightley has told girlfriend Sam Faiers he doesn’t want to be part of the new series. But pals say former TOWIE star Sam, 25 – who is mum to their eight-month-old baby Paul Jr – is still trying to convince him to be part of new TV project The Mummy Diaries. A source says: “Things have been tense between Paul and Sam since he told her he didn’t want to film a second stint of their reality show. But Sam knows the show will take a huge hit if he doesn’t appear on it and she’s been…

She recently admitted she has been asked out on dates – now, as she prepares to raise her first child as a single parent, pregnant Steph Davis has told pals she’s hoping to relaunch her singing career. Last week, reports surfaced that Steph– who’s close friends with Jordan – was signing up for a temporary presenting slot on Loose Women. Now, she plans to relaunch her singing career after first revealing her vocal skills during BBC’s talent search Over The Rainbow in 2010. A NEW CAREER Friends say she’s turning to Jordan – real name Katie Price – who previously managed former TOWIE star Lauren Pope and model Amy Willerton – to help make her a success. A source says: “Steph is very serious about her singing career and wants…

Tragic James Bulger was just two when he was murdered in 1993 by Robert Thompson and Jon Venables, then 10. Sickeningly, James’ mum Denise Fergus, 48, was targeted on Twitter two years ago by online troll Chloe Cowan, now 20. In one sickening Tweet, after seeing a photo of a young relative of Denise, Cowan taunted: “Can’t wait till he’s a tot, the tracks are already calling his name” – referring to James’ brutal murder. Earlier this year, Cowan pleaded guilty to a stalking offence under the Protection Of Harassment Act and was sentenced to three years in prison. Denise, who lives in Liverpool with husband Stuart, 41, and their three sons, says: “The police are sending out the right message by investing more money in online trolling. I couldn’t…

A recent study has shown that in this social media age, we only have half the amount of friends we think we have. Scientists from Tel Aviv University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology carried out experiments on friendships between students to see “how many are reciprocal and how many are just one-sided.” And the findings show that we’re not able to truly identify which of our circle are true friends, and which are just acquaintances. Dr Erez Shmueli said: “It turns out we’re bad at judging who our friends are. We found that 95 per cent of participants thought their relationships were reciprocal. If you think someone is your friend, you expect them to feel the same way – but only 50 per cent of those polled matched up in…

Obsessed Sarah Williams was so jealous of love rival Sadie Hartley, she hatched a sickening plot to kill her with accomplice Katrina Walsh – which led to a murder trial that has shocked the nation. Twisted Williams, 35, paralysed businesswoman Sadie, 60, with a 500,000-volt stun gun on the doorstep of her home, then stabbed her with “demonic savagery,” leaving her to die in a pool of blood. Ski travel firm employee Williams was last week jailed for a minimum of 30 years, while horse-riding instructor Walsh, 56, was sentenced to a minimum of 25 years for helping plan the murder. INFATUATION Self-confessed “she-devil” Williams – who’d had multiple affairs with married men – became infatuated with Sadie’s longterm partner Ian Johnston, 57, after a brief fling. He dumped Williams…

Rumours have circulated for years that he’s estranged from Suri, 10 – his daughter with actress Katie Holmes. But reports last week claimed Tom Cruise “hasn’t seen Suri in about three years.” Tom’s relationship with Suri has been the subject of intense speculation since his marriage to Katie, 37, collapsed in 2012 – amid reports she didn’t want Suri raised in Tom’s Scientology faith. The following year, Tom settled a £38m lawsuit when a magazine accused him of “abandoning” Suri after the divorce was finalised. Tom denied cutting her out of his life, saying: “While I’m sure my daughter misses me when I am not with her (as I miss her), she is a very happy child.”…

‘It took five years of marriage to love my husband’ Last week Great British Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain, 31, candidly admitted that her wedding day was the “worst day of her life.” Nadiya had an arranged marriage to her husband Abdal when she was 19 – and had only met him once before their big day. In her new two-part documentary The Chronicles Of Nadiya, the 2015 show-winner admits: “My wedding day was one of the worst days of my life... I was an emotional wreck and I cried through the whole thing.” Fortunately, the couple fell in love, with Nadiya admitting she “properly got to know him” after about a year and their marriage is a happy one. But what is it like to walk down the aisle…

He might spend his days naked paddle boarding with girlfriend Katy Perry now, but in the mid-1990s Orlando Bloom played builder Noel who got a nasty arm injury while renovating a house. Taylor Swift’s significant other had a guest role on the hospital drama in 2007 aged 26, where he played a rock climber who knocked a woman off her balcony as he abseiled down a building.
