Closer Issue 841의 목차

There’s no doubt that the glamorous world of celebrity is fascinating, but stories of ordinary people doing extraordinary things can be even more compelling. That’s why, this week, we’ve got a special treat in the form of a 14-page real-life special. We spoke to a woman who said “I du-vet” and married her bedding. And we talked to a courageous acid attack survivor, Adele Bellis, whose inspiring story of learning to trust and find love again is sure to move you, and we report on the women getting themselves into debt to pay for cosmetic surgery. Their stories – and more – start on page 26. Meanwhile, if you want to make a change to YOUR real life, why not try Dr Michael Mosley’s fantastic new 5:2 diet on page…

Psychological therapist Emma Kenny interviewed Lauren for Closer in 2013. She says, “When I met Lauren, I thought she had attachment issues stemming from her childhood [Lauren has claimed her mum rejected her when she was four years old and she went to live with her dad]. “She didn’t have much protection in her childhood, and that is what she craves. This means that she looks for blokes she thinks are ‘safe’ by going for loud, gregarious types. These men suggest they have the confidence to be her protector, but often cannot follow through. “Lauren was with Mark Wright for many years, a lad about town with a solid family unit that she was close to. She still goes for men who mirror his ‘wide boy’ persona – but who…

She was left furious earlier this month when husband Wayne Rooney hit the headlines for a ten-hour boozy bender in Florida – where he was said to have downed shots and looked cosy with barmaid Vicki Rosiek, 32, before driving off in her car together. And despite some saying Coleen was prepared to forgive the 32-year-old footballer, sources maintain there is still a question mark over their marriage. The day after the scandal broke, Coleen temporarily removed her wedding ring amid reports she ordered Wayne to rehab to deal with a drinking problem. And last week, she jetted out of Washington DC with her parents and sons, Kai, nine, Klay, five, Kit, three, and one-year-old Cass – leaving Wayne in Florida for a friendly match ahead of his first major…

CHARLIZE DENIES ROMANCE WITH BRAD After sending fans into meltdown amid reports she’d struck up a new A-list romance, Charlize Theron has quashed rumours she’s dating Brad Pitt, insisting she’s currently not seeing anybody. The Oscar-winning actress, 43, revealed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that, as a little girl, she used to practise kissing on the elbow, adding, “It’s why I’m single!” Last month, Brad, 55, and Charlize were reportedly spotted cosying up to each other in a Hollywood restaurant, with onlookers claiming the pair looked loved-up and happy. Brad split from Angelina Jolie, 43, in September 2016, after a two-year marriage. The pair reached an agreement over the custody of their six children last December. He was previously married to Jennifer Aniston until their divorce in 2004, and recently…

Closer’s psychological therapist, Emma Kenny, says, “In the same way that people used to get into debt in order to buy a new car or go on a fancy holiday, surgery is now so common that it’s viewed as yet another luxury worth splashing out on. But this desire to change ourselves is disturbing. “One of the reasons it’s so popular is because there’s been a huge shift in what ‘beauty’ means, and women like the Kardashians give the impression that surgery equates to success and happiness. These days, we live in a society where we’re taught, ‘If you don’t like yourself, change yourself’. Many women who have surgery are doing so in order to follow certain trends – such as fuller lips and curvy bums. It means we’re all…

Admitting out loud that you wish you’d never had children feels taboo but, shockingly, 43 per cent of women say they’ve experienced some regret. An exclusive Closer survey carried out by OnePulse, a live opinion app, also showed that motherhood had negatively affected their social lives, relationships and careers. Plus, Facebook group “I regret having children” has more than 15,000 followers. Even some celebrities have confessed to struggling with parenthood. David Bowie’s director son, Duncan Jones, 47, recently took to Twitter to vent his frustration. “I have two kids.… they are exhausting, frustrating and life-destabilising.” He added, “This is where people feel compelled to say, ‘I wouldn’t change it for the world!’ But you know… of course I’d reconsider.” Here, Closer speaks to one mother who wishes she had stayed…

Like many brides, Pascale Sellick suffered the jitters in the lead-up to her wedding. But while the artist was busy with her wedding planner making final preparations, her groom was unable to help with the party planning. That’s because Pascale, 49, had decided to tie the knot with her duvet, which she’s owned for 10 years. She explains, “The longest, most reliable and comforting relationship I’ve ever had is with my duvet. It always gives me great hugs, keeps me warm, and I’ll always be able to turn to it and have a duvet day when I’m feeling sad. I wanted to show everyone that self-love is important, so marrying my duvet is a way to say that, even if we’re feeling lonely, we can comfort ourselves. I’ve always been…

MARRIED TO A BIGAMIST ‘I’d be delighted to work with Closer again’ Mary Turner Thompson, 53, appeared in Closer last year, speaking candidly about her husband’s shock double life and bigamy. She says, “Closer’s communication was clear and friendly and the questions really made me think! “Closer also gave me copy approval before the magazine went to print, which was really nice. It was a thoroughly enjoyable process and I’d be delighted to work with the magazine again.” CAITLYN JENNER LOOKALIKE ‘Iwas made to feel so special’ Transgender taxi driver Melissa Ede, 58, recreated Caitlyn Jenner’s Vanity Fair cover and told Closer about her plans for her £4m lottery win. She says, “Working with Closer was fabulous. The team were amazing and the photo shoot made me feel so special.…

PAUL’S KISS WITH HIS MUM Viewers were left shocked in 2017 when Sam’s partner, Paul, shared a long kiss on the lips with his mum, Gaynor. It was met with a backlash from viewers, who dubbed it “awkward” and “creepy”. NELLY STEALS THE SHOW Billie’s daughter Nelly is the breakout star of the show, with her adorable one-liners. And last year, she excelled herself when she accused her mum of waking her up when she let off wind – which resulted in an embarrassed Billie breaking into laughter. DEMANDING BEHAVIOUR In the very first series, Paul demanded that Sam make him beans on toast while she was breastfeeding their then-newborn, baby Paul, at the time. Following Rosie’s arrival last year, Paul had a strop when his cheese on toast was…

‘ I WEAR MY GYM GEAR WHETHER I’M TRAINING OR NOT!’ ‘MORNING 7AM: If I’m working, I get up anywhere between 6am and 8am. If not, it’s 9am or 10am – I love a lie-in. 8AM: When I’m trying to be healthy, I’ll have scrambled eggs, a bit of rye bread and some crushed avocado. Other days, I’ll have a banana and berry blast juice, then stuff my face with sandwiches and cakes. It’s all about balance! 9.30AM: I’m a big fan of early-morning training sessions, I love a hardcore functional session like HIIT [high-intensity interval training]. Once I get back from the gym, my day just falls into place really nicely. If I roll out of bed late and don’t train, I’m more likely to make a bad breakfast…

‘We’ll have more babies before the wedding!’ Just three years ago, Casey Batchelor was single and admitted that she’d given up on finding love. Yet when we sit down to catch up with the CBB star – who gave birth to daughter Florence last May – she’s flashing a beautiful diamond ring, having just got engaged to Dane Goodson while on holiday in Dubai. “It’s such a lovely feeling and still feels surreal,” she says, beaming. “We’d talked about it and spoken about what kind of ring I’d like, but I didn’t think it would happen any time soon – I thought he’d keep me waiting at least another year or two!” A HUGE SURPRISE Casey, 34, has spoken previously about worrying she wouldn’t find a partner and, before meeting…

ANNA How much do you spend per week? About £150. That’s for me, my husband [Alex Di Pasquale] and our two-year-old son, Vincenzo. I’m a big fan of Aldi – you can get some broccoli, then in the next aisle you can pick up a camping toilet! Describe your daily diet... Breakfast is normally porridge with almond milk, cinnamon and blueberries, or scrambled egg and bacon at the weekend. When I’m filming Celebs Go Dating, I have a hot lunch on set, so I’ll have chicken stir-fry with veg and rice. If I’m at home, I’ll have jacket potato with tuna and salad, or maybe some sushi. In the evening, I’ll make baked salmon topped with roasted tomatoes, sweet potatoes and lots of veg. I snack on oatcakes with a…

An app called Safe Date has been released, aiming to protect women on first dates. Recent stats show that sexual assault has increased by 700 per cent in the past four years, so it’s needed. I’m not implying that all dating is dangerous, but it’s hugely important to approach blind dates with caution. Meet somewhere busy and where alcohol is off the menu – the police say that you’re far more likely to be a victim of crime if you drink. Agree a time frame – I gave the one and only blind date I ever went on an hour slot in a coffee shop. In the first ten minutes, he suggested gay people were mentally ill, and it was a relief to be able to leave exactly an hour…

MY PROUDEST ACHIEVEMENT... in my personal life is getting to week ten on Strictly Come Dancing in 2017. It was totally unexpected. I also received an honorary doctorate from Glasgow University last summer for my work for LGBT people and mental health, which I’m really proud about. You’ll have to call me Dr Calman now! PEOPLE WOULD BE SURPRISED TO HEAR... I gave up my job as a corporate lawyer 15 years ago to be a comedian because I decided it was better to live my life without any regrets. I’M SCARED OF... everything. I don’t fly, I’m terrified of new situations… and raisins – I find them quite frightening. I lay awake at night and worry about my family and friends being safe, too. I WISH I HAD... more…

MUST READ Perfect Liars (REBECCA REID) Sixteen years ago, best friends Nancy, Georgia and Lila committed a terrible crime. They have never spoken about it, but now, one of them wants to talk. Georgia calls a crisis dinner, but the evening does not go as planned –and only two of them will leave alive. If you enjoyed Big Little Lies, you’ll love this. BEST DAY OUT Funk & Soul Weekender OK, spring may not have sprung just yet, but we’re only a few months away from the first round of UK festivals – and possibly some sun. On 17-19 May, Funk & Soul Weekender is bringing its chilled-out vibes to Brighton Beach with the likes of ’90s hip-hop legends The Pharcyde, turntablist Gilles Peterson and Mr Soul himself Craig Charles.…

Over the past few months, Jordan’s life has descended into chaos – with her drug-taking, wild partying and run-ins with the law making daily headlines, as she struggles to cope with her third divorce, her mum Amy’s terminal illness, and having two of her children move in with their dad. As Closer went to press, she was due to face her sixth court appearance in as many months – this time, on drink-driving charges. ‘ HER MISSION TO MAKE ONLINE ABUSE A CRIME HAS BLINKERED HER AT TIMES’ Amid the controversy and shocking headlines, however, Jordan – real name Katie Price – has had one major triumph. Her campaign to make online bullying – something her disabled son Harvey has been a victim of – a crime won the backing…

He insisted in December that he had no plans to quit his presenting gig with US show Extra but, last week, Mark Wright appeared to make a dramatic U-turn when he confirmed he had left the LA-based show and was returning home to Essex to be with his wife Michelle Keegan. The couple have had a long-distance romance since 2017 – when Mark, 32, jetted out to the States for his presenting role, while Michelle, 31, filmed around the world for eight months for Our Girl. But as Mark returns home, Michelle is due to fly to South Africa for four months in April to shoot a new series of the BBC drama. GUILTY And sources say the actress can’t help but feel guilty he’s given up his dream role…

Michael Jackson had a Peter Pan quality about him that was often attributed to the fact he’d lost out on a true childhood due to finding fame at just 11 years old alongside his brothers in the group The Jackson 5 – whose success was credited to their father, Joe, who later admitted to whipping Michael as a child. As an adult, the singer surrounded himself with children and even built a theme park dubbed Neverland. Tabloids dubbed him Wacko Jacko, but his quirks were celebrated by his legions of fans. So when he was twice accused of child molestation, it was hard to imagine that the icon could have been capable of such horrifying crimes. The first allegations arose in 1993, when the father of Jackson’s 13-year-old friend, Jordan…

Clare Macnaughton, 47, lives in Salisbury with her two children, Ben, 15, and Bella, ten. She says, “I was never one of those little girls who dreamed of getting married and having babies. All I wanted was to leave home and travel the world – which I did, aged 18, when I moved to the South of France to become a sailing instructor. Afterwards, I went to university and began working in PR. It wasn’t until 1997, when I met my husband, Hagar, now 49, and fell in love that I could even think about marriage – and after four years, in November 2001, we did it. We didn’t ever really discuss having a family, but we didn’t use contraception either. One year later, I was pregnant. “Was I happy?…

‘I WED A TRAIN STATION’ In 2015, Carol Santa Fe, from California, claimed to have married Santa Fe Station after being in love with it since she was nine years old. The volunteer support worker, 46, visits the building every day and even claims to have “sex” with it, calling herself an objectum sexual: someone who is sexually attracted to objects. ‘MY FIANCÉ IS A CHANDELIER’ Amanda Liberty, 34, from Leeds is engaged to a 91-year-old chandelier called Lumiere, and claims that it was love at first sight after she spotted the light fitting on eBay. Amanda first fell in love with a drum kit when she was eight and then New York's Statue of Liberty, before finding the light of her life. ‘I’LL GROW OLD WITH MY FERRIS WHEEL…

❛HE WAS SO EMBARRASSED, BUT I’M FINALLY PROUD OF WHO I AM❜ Rachael Kin hit rock bottom when her relationship broke down after she was fitted with a stoma bag following an operation. But she got the perfect revenge – by being crowned a beauty queen. Rachael, 28, who lives in High Wycombe with her daughter, Maja, ten, says, “I felt like my boyfriend was so embarrassed by my stoma bag. He struggled to accept it and said it should be kept private. He even discouraged me from wearing bikinis, which I loved. “I tried to embrace my new life, but I still didn’t feel like I had my partner’s support. So, a year later, we broke up. But rather than let his comments get to me, I researched body…

She surprised fans when she announced in 2016 that her 18-month marriage to Harry Needs was over – with former Olympic swimmer Rebecca Adlington going on to reveal that he’d questioned whether he was in love or whether he just “idolised” her achievements. But while Rebecca, 30, has maintained a friendship with her ex – with whom she has three-year-old daughter Summer – she admits it’s been difficult. She says, “It hasn’t been easy and it definitely took a while for Harry and I to get here. But it’s now great. The key is communication – Harry and I are really open and honest with each other about everything. You can sometimes get bitter about things, but we talk a lot, we’ve kept our friendship. It’s also about trust and…

Check the ingredients list if you want to find out where your collagen comes from: • The vast majority of collagen powders come from the muscles and bones of cows and chickens. • Marine collagen comes from fish, and these smaller-sized molecules are known to be more easily absorbed by the body. • Vegetarian collagen is made up of egg shells and egg whites. • Although not as common as the other sources, there are vegan alternatives, which tend to contain fruit extracts.…

ACCEPT HELP “I think a lot of the time, parents feel they need to cope on their own and are a bit too proud to say they need help. But bringing up a child is a 24/7 job so, if you’re offered some help, accept it. My mum now comes around two days a week, and it means I can wash and dry my hair, get on with some work and even just nip out to get a coffee." TRY A HERBAL REMEDY FOR TEETHING “I’ve found teething a challenge. It’s horrible to see Flo in pain and it gave her bad nappy rash because teething turns their urine more acidic. Someone recommended Ashton & Parsons Infants’ Powders to me, which is a gentle herbal remedy you rub on their…

On non-fast days, you don’t have to count calories, but Michael suggests sticking to a healthy Mediterranean-style menu, having sensible portion sizes and using Time Restricted Eating (see previous page). Here’s how… • Add as many antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables as you can. Many fruits have a high sugar content, so stick to berries, apples, pears, plums or rhubarb. • Include legumes – lentils, chickpeas, peas, kidney beans and nuts. • Eat oily fish (mackerel, tuna, salmon, sardines). Tinned, frozen or fresh is fine. • Switch to wholegrain bread and brown rice, but keep portion sizes small. • Use olive oil in dressings and to cook with. • Cut back on red meat and include more poultry and fish. • Enjoy the odd glass of wine and a bit of…

Two stories caught my eye recently. Lauri Murphy had a mole on her tummy that became itchy, but she assumed it was a pregnancy symptom, so ignored it. When it kept itching after she had her baby, she saw her doctor, who removed it that day. TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS Doctors as well as patients can become so distracted by a pregnancy that they don’t notice anything else. Lauri’s was a superficial melanoma, but unchecked the cancer could have spread. It also shows that you should trust your instincts. The other story was about Jayne Hobbs, who went for a facial, where the beautician spotted that a mole on her chest had turned cancerous and urged her to see her GP. It had got darker but Jayne ignored it, thinking it…

It was a standard single girls’ night, where I and the last remaining few of my friends who haven’t met the man for them, laughed about our love lives – or lack of – washed down with Negronis. But before we’d even begun, one pal said, “I’ve got a date next week, want to see his picture?” It stunned me because the priority was whether he was hot, not whether he was a good person. And it wasn’t a one-off event. As each of us shared the pictures of our potential matches, we all had an opinion. When I showed my friends a picture of a guy I’ve been seeing, they told me he was bound to cheat because he was good-looking, while another predicted he’d be boring as it…

MY FIRST JOB WAS AT A CHILDREN’S CHARITY I worked at Sunny Days Children’s Fund [a charity that supports children with a range of health conditions] as an administrator. Reading letters from parents was tough, as their children were often very poorly, but it was lovely to help people. I then went on to work in Canary Wharf in London for a business centre, before starting on TOWIE when I was 23. I BOUGHT THE EXACT SAME BOOTS TWICE! I forgot, went back and bought them again and by the time I realised, I had already worn both pairs so I couldn’t return one. I have no idea how I managed to do that – they were £70 from Dune too, so it’s not like they were just a pair…

Why are you supporting Stand Up To Cancer? RUSSELL: It affects everybody. One of my mates has just had a massive brain tumour and keeps having to have it operated on. My mum has had cancer six times since I’ve been alive. My mate’s mum just died. It’s everywhere. You want to help people as it’s so prevalent and present. JON: I lost my uncle and a friend of mine, Ellen, this year. For them – and for everyone I’ve lost to cancer, and for everyone who anyone has lost to cancer – I think there’s a lot of work still to be done. We’ve got to keep the foot to the pedal. Can you bake? R: No, not really. Well I did just bake something – contrary to my…

‘SHE DOESN’T HAVE THE STRENGTH OR SELF-WORTH TO BELIEVE SHE CAN DO ANY BETTER’ She slammed jailbird ex Joey Morrison when she split from him last July, amid claims he’d been sexting other girls from prison – calling him a “wasteman” and a “piece of s** t who makes me sick”. But Lauren Goodger shocked fans last week when she reunited with him on a night out, describing him as “family” in a string of Instagram snaps. Now, insiders say pals are shocked that 32-year-old Lauren – who deleted the photos hours later but continued to follow him on social media – could let Joey back into her life after such a fraught romance. A source tells us, “No one can believe Lauren would even be in the same room…

She seemed determined to move on from Liam Payne following their separation last June, publicly declaring in November that she “couldn’t give a f** k” when the former One Direction star was linked to a string of other women. But insiders say Cheryl is now realising how much she misses having Liam – with whom she has 23-month-old son Bear – in her life. Meanwhile, Liam’s new romance with supermodel Naomi Campbell, 48, appears to be heating up, with the singer spotted leaving her New York apartment last week. The source says, “Cheryl really loved Liam as the father of her child, and although she feels the split was the right thing, that doesn’t mean she doesn’t miss him. She really enjoys it when they are together with Bear, as…

She left her Hollywood life behind when she married into the royal family last May. But Meghan Markle – who is seven months pregnant – proved she hadn’t forgotten how to party like a superstar when she celebrated her impending arrival last week with a star-studded baby shower in New York. The event – which is reported to have cost up to £600k – was hosted by Meghan’s celebrity friends, including Serena Williams, 37, Amal Clooney, 41, and Jessica Mulroney, 39. Also in attendance were Meghan’s former Suits co-star Abigail Spencer, CBS news reporter Gayle King, fashion designer Misha Nonoo, private members’ club executive Markus Anderson and harpist Erin Hill. LAVISH GIFTS But insiders tell Closer it was Prince Harry who pulled out all the stops, treating his wife and…

Self-confessed surgery addict Sam Beer, 27, has spent an astonishing £16,000 on procedures, including a boob job, jaw reshaping and a bum lift. But the young mum doesn’t have savings to pay for treatments – instead, she relies on credit cards, which has left her £3,500 in debt. More women than ever are obsessed with changing their looks. In fact, 52 per cent of UK women aged 18 to 34 admit that they would consider surgery, and 16 per cent say their physical appearance has left them feeling stressed. OBSESSED Sam, a trainee beauty therapist who lives in Kent with her partner Darren, 38, and their one-year-old son Albie, says, “I’m obsessed with cosmetic surgery. I now rely on credit cards to help pay for procedures, and although getting into…

❛ I WOULDN’T EVEN GIVE UP MY SCARS IF I HAD THE CHOICE NOW, BECAUSE THEY REMIND ME OF MY FREEDOM ❜ Adele Bellis’ life was changed forever when her ex-boyfriend arranged for acid to be hurled into her face. Left partially bald, and with serious burns to her face, neck and arm, Adele, 26, was left devastated and wondered if she’d ever be able to trust a man again. Now, five years on from her horrific ordeal, Adele has fallen for construction worker Josh, 28. Madly in love, the pair are even discussing marriage. Adele explains, “It’s been a really tough few years, but I’m stronger now and all I want is to be normal. “I was nervous to get back out on the dating scene and it’s been…

Dr Sharie Coombes, child and family psychologist, says, “Most parents will feel regret or resentment at some point, and it’s a normal part of raising children. Your job, hobbies and social life come second to your child’s needs – and this can feel like losing a part of your identity. We also live in a world where we see Instagram parents going on date nights and lavish holidays, despite having four well-behaved children at home. But this isn’t real life. If you’re struggling with regret or resentment, counselling may help. “However, these feelings are not to be confused with postnatal depression (PND), which can last much longer than a few weeks. If you’re feeling low, or experiencing frightening thoughts – such as hurting your baby – these could be symptoms…

Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies and is naturally found in muscles, skin, blood and bones. This wonder protein helps to promote skin elasticity, hold our bones and muscles together and protect organs. As we get older, our collagen production slows down (we lose up to one per cent a year from the age of 30) and this can result in signs of ageing, such as wrinkles. Collagen supplements and products are praised as anti-ageing heroes by celebs like Jennifer Aniston and Kourtney Kardashian – so, should we all be using them? WHAT DO THEY DO? Daisy Whitbread, a top nutritionist, says, “Keeping our collagen levels topped up with capsules, drinks and beauty products can have wide-reaching benefits. The smaller fragments of collagen found in most supplement…

I moved into this flat in September last year and started decorating straight away. People can’t believe how quickly I’ve made it feel like home. There’s still quite a lot to do, but I’m really happy with how it all looks so far – it definitely feels nice and cosy. I didn’t spend too much time researching decor ideas beforehand, but I definitely looked at sites like Pinterest and Instagram for inspiration. They are great places for discovering upcoming home brands, too. I don’t follow interior trends, though – they come and go very quickly – so I stick to what I like. There’s a lot going on, design-wise, but I think it works. Some people feel I’ve gone OTT on prints, but I wanted to represent my passions. I…

He’s the health guru whose hugely popular Fast Diet took the world by storm, and now Dr Michael Mosley has launched the Fast 800, an updated and more achievable version of his famous 5:2 plan. Not only can it help you rapidly shed excess pounds (2-4 a week), the Fast 800 also has a host of health and mood-boosting benefits – and it’s all based on the latest science. The plan is simple: consume 800 calories for two days a week and then eat a Mediterranean-style diet for the remaining five, without counting calories. Unlike other plans, you don’t have to cut out any food groups, and studies show that 800 calories provide just the right amount you need to trick your body into “fasting mode” while still providing you…

What can you tell us about your character, Max? At the surface you think you know this guy, because we know figures like him from real life. Men like Ted Turner, Rupert Murdoch, Richard Branson. Guys who have achieved so much in life and you have a sense that they have a golden touch, and are involved with all kinds of businesses linked with power, politics and media. But Max is not based on any of them – he’s someone new, a work of fiction. Would you say he’s a good guy or a bad guy? Like all of us, he is a mix.
