Closer Issue 866의 목차

This week we’ve been chatting to Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace about her latest cosmetic overhaul – new boobs, liposuction and eyelid tightening. She’s thrilled with the results but maintains she is aware of the dangers of going too far and how you can end up unrecognisable. At 40 she longs to become a mum and says she still wants to be sure she and any future children still look alike, so she’s asked her friends to warn her if she gets carried away with the nips/tucks. If it ever comes to that, let’s hope she listens – unlike her pal Jordan who ignored Aisleyne’s advice to stop going under the knife. As she prepares for even MORE surgery it seems the mum-of-five is willing to lose everything – even her life –…

Jordan is no stranger to developing complications after cosmetic work and the majority of these have been to her face. In May, she reportedly had to call doctors after the wounds from her third face lift became infected and started to ooze pus, and she allegedly joked that her ears might fall off. And in scenes filmed for her reality show, My Crazy Life, last year, her then-husband, Kieran Hayler, was seen cleaning her wounds from her face lift after they became infected. She confessed she hadn’t been taking the antibiotics as instructed by the doctor, saying, “Every time you have surgery they say to take antibiotics – in case you get an infection. And I’m like everyone else; [when] you get to the third day, you think, ‘I’m all…

She’s set to reprise her role on the judging panel of The Greatest Dancer next year, with two new additions to the line-up including Love Island star Curtis Pritchard and A-list choreographer Todrick Hall, who’s worked with the likes of Beyoncé and Taylor Swift. And insiders say Cheryl, 36, has formed a close friendship with the show’s new American dance captain, Todrick, 32 – who is openly gay – and he’s been helping her overcome a difficult year. INSTANT BOND Sharing her excitement about the choreographer joining the show, Cheryl said, “This year promises to be even more amazing, especially with the addition of Todrick, who I’m obsessed with!” A source says, “Cheryl clicked with Todrick instantly. They bonded over their love of choreography and realised they had mutual friends…

She’s determined to be seen as an advocate of womankind, writing personal messages on bananas for sex workers and championing women as guest editor of the current issue of Vogue magazine. So it’s no surprise that Meghan Markle was reportedly furious last week when a diet pill company made false claims that she’d used Keto weight loss supplements to lose her baby weight after giving birth to son Archie in May, and was launching her own “weight loss line”, prompting the palace to take legal action. Insiders close to Meghan, 38, reveal she’s vowed to turn her upset into something positive and use it as a platform to inspire new mothers – and she has husband Harry’s full support. SHOCKED AND HURT A source says, “She’s upset that anyone could…

She shocked fans when she was snapped kissing reality star Kaitlynn Carter – and within hours, Miley Cyrus announced she’d split from her husband, Liam Hemsworth, after just seven months of marriage. Miley, 26, released a statement saying they were “lovingly spending time apart”, while Liam, 29, broke his silence with a post on Instagram which read, “I wish her nothing but health and happiness going forward.” Liam’s friends have said he was “devastated” by the pictures of Miley and Kaitlynn and have cited infidelity as the cause of the split. And now insiders tell Closer that despite the rumours, Miley doesn’t want a divorce from Liam – and instead wants them to have an “open relationship”. A source says, “Miley’s devastated that Liam’s made things so final and while…

After her stint on Love Island in 2017, Chloe Crowhurst bagged a clothing deal with MissPap, a skincare range, and her own fitness brand. But after months of relentless work, Chloe found herself suffering, both physically and emotionally. Chloe says, “When I left Love Island , I signed up to a celebrity agency, and my manager at the time drilled into my head that I had limited time. He said that I had to do everything while I was still in demand. I ended up feeling like I needed to say yes to everything or I’d be letting myself down. “I started to get ill – I was getting tonsillitis a lot and feeling anxious and stressed. I was pleasing other people and putting a smile on my face, just…

Kylie – who controversially started getting lip fillers aged just 15 and whose famous pout helped launch her hugely successful lip kits – was blasted by fans for looking a decade older due to having undergone a string of surgical procedures. One said, “There’s no doubt about it, she looks far older than 22.” The backlash came just weeks after fans accused the 22-year-old of having plastic surgery on her body after showing-off her enviable figure in promotional shots for her new skincare range. She later shot down the claims, insisting it was due to “good makeup, good hair and fillers.” But pals say Kylie – who initially lied about having lip fillers and attributed her plump pout to lip liner before coming clean five years ago – is preparing…

He was one of the first X Factor winners, claiming the title in 2005 with Louis Walsh as his mentor. But Shayne Ward admits that despite his success, he hasn’t heard from Louis or Simon Cowell in years. Shayne, 34, went on to have a number one album, multiple hit singles and branched out into acting, starring in Coronation Street for three years. GUTTED AT MISSING OUT But he reveals he won’t be joining fellow winners Alexandra Burke and Leona Lewis when they return to the revamped celebrity version of the show, The X Factor All Stars, which airs later this year. He says, “I can’t do [All Stars] as I’m contracted for something else. It’s gutting because I loved that show – I’m so proud of it. I’ll be…

She vowed to quit using slimming filters on her social media after growing confident in her curves while in the I’m A Celeb! jungle last year. And Emily Atack looked the picture of confidence as she enjoyed a holiday in Mykonos with her pals in a flattering white swimsuit – after recently admitting that she was her heaviest weight yet, but also her happiest. The 5ft 6 star – who went public with boyfriend Rob Jowers in April – recently told Closer , “I’ve realised that I’m probably the biggest I’ve ever been. I weigh 11st. My life is the best it’s ever been, and I get more compliments now than I ever have before. I look back at photographs of when I was slimmer, looking a bit gaunt, and…

CONFIDENCE TAKES TIME TO BUILD “There’s a fine line between confidence and arrogance. Knowing who you are and being comfortable with that is confidence; arrogance is knowing who you are and shoving it down everyone’s throat. I was a child star in the early ’70s, so I’ve built confidence over time, and now I can tackle whatever is put in front of me. I’d never been on a soap before I joined EastEnders as Kush’s mum Carmel in 2015. It was only meant to be for eight weeks, but it turned into more than three years. I’d been in showbiz for five decades by then, but I had humility and never pretended I knew it all.” MARRIAGE ISN’T ALWAYS BUILT TO LAST “It’s lovely to think you can be with…

• Check out the “screen time” app in the settings of your iPhone – it’ll give you a stark wake-up call as to how much time you actually spend on certain apps. You can also set time limits for usage to help you cut down. • Keep your smartphone out of the bedroom – leave it in another area before getting into bed, and wind down by reading and relaxing. • Use an old-fashioned alarm clock so you’re not relying on your phone first thing, and being woken up to blue light and a slew of app notifications!…

‘We’d scream “I want a divorce!” at each other’ She’s had a tumultuous few years, starting with her arrest for possession of cocaine during a pantomime stint in December 2017, only to then narrowly avoid jail five months ago for breaching an injunction protecting the identity of James Bulger killer, Jon Venables. But as Tina Malone slowly rebuilds her life after her “year from hell”, she exclusively reveals her marriage to toyboy Paul Chase, 37, nearly crumbled under the strain of her legal battles. The former Shameless actress admits things became so tense, she found herself on the brink of divorce from her husband of nine years. Tina, 56, tells Closer , “Nobody knows, but this time last year, I didn’t think me and Paul would make it. We were…

INSIDE JESS’ FRIDGE • Cottage cheese • Apple • Yakult • Olives • Houmous • Lindt chocolate orange • Crab meat • Salad leaves • Salad dressing • Chicken breasts • Ginger • Tomatoes • Spinach • Celery • Cucumber • Balsamic vinegar • Orange juice • Oat milk • Prosecco • Aperol VERDICT NUTRITIONIST JULIETTE KELLOW SAYS: “It’s important for Jess to have a proper breakfast offering long-lasting energy, like porridge, fruit with yoghurt and oats, or eggs and avocado with wholegrain toast. And she should get her protein from foods that are packed with other nutrients, such as chicken, fish, eggs, tofu, beans or lentils, rather than protein shakes and bars.” TAKEAWAY TREAT INDIAN I’ll have chicken tikka masala with rice and naan, if I’m being really naughty.…

There are specific genes that make people more likely to be obese, but researchers have found that even for them, certain types of exercise can help them shed weight more effectively. The study looked at more than 18,000 people’s BMI, body fat and waist-to-hip ratio. Jogging was the best exercise for managing obesity, while mountain climbing, walking, dancing and long yoga practices also reduced BMI. However, cycling, stretching exercises and swimming weren’t as effective. So if the weight won’t shift, jog on!…

I WISH... I had more confidence. Deep down, I’m not as confident as people would think – I can be quite shy in social situations. MY BIGGEST REGRET IS... not taking enough maternity leave when I had my son in 2012. I was on Emmerdale, and went back to work when Freddie was 11 weeks old, thinking I could do it all. But as he grew, I really felt I was missing out. THE BEST PIECE OF ADVICE I’VE BEEN GIVEN IS... make your own luck. If you want something, you have to go out and get it. You can’t just expect things to fall into your lap – you have to work hard. I FEAR... how the world will be when my son grows older. We try to teach…

1 PEAKY BLINDERS BRILLIANT PERIOD DRAMA SUN 25/MON 26 AUG, 9PM/9.30PM, BBC1 Fans of the epic gangster drama have more than one reason to throw their peaked caps into the air with joy – not only is Peaky Blinders back on our screens, there are two episodes this week. The action kicks off in 1929, two years after we last saw the Shelbys, and the Wall Street Crash is about to happen. Tommy’s an MP (as well as being the head of a criminal gang) and, with fascism on the rise, he comes to the attention of Oswald Moseley (Sam Claflin). Meanwhile, Arthur’s back to his old psychotic self, Helen McCrory’s Polly is looking cool AF, and the Peakys are facing their scariest enemies yet. Beautifully produced and acted, as…

MUST READ Dead Guilty (MICHELLE DAVIES) Katy Pope was 17 when she was murdered on a family holiday in Majorca. Despite her mother’s high rank in the Met and the joint major investigation between the British and Spanish police, Katy’s killer was never caught. Ten years later, Katy’s family return to the Spanish island to launch a fresh appeal for information, taking with them the newly seconded DC Maggie Neville as the family liaison officer. But Maggie’s first international investigation quickly goes from being more than just a press conference. We couldn’t put this down. BEST DAY OUT National Museum of Scotland Nestled in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town is the fascinating National Museum Of Scotland. With everything on display from prehistoric animals to modern-day monsters, world history and…

Cosmetic Specialist Dr Nyla says the damage done to Jordan’s face could be irreversible. She says, “If you undergo repeated surgery, you’re going to have increasing problems with the wound repair. Going over the same wounds can increase risk of infection and permanent nerve damage. Also, each time you cut through scar tissue, the skin thins and the blood supply lessens. This means necrosis can happen – where the blood supply is diminished so much that the tissue cannot be oxygenated, and so turns black and dies. There’ll be a big black mark and you’re likely to have to have a skin graft to cut away the dead tissue and join the two flaps together, which would leave a massive scar. It could leave lasting untold damage. By repeatedly having…

‘SHE FEELS LIKE ALL SHE’S DOING IS DEFENDING HERSELF AGAINST THE CRITICS’ She’s endured a tough time in the spotlight since her ex-husband George Kay was found dead after a suspected drug overdose in July – facing a barrage of criticism from pressure group Fathers4Justice over claims she banned him from seeing their five-year-old daughter, Dylan-Jorge, and later hitting back at trolls who slammed her for letting her youngest wear a full face of make-up on Instagram. And last week, Kerry Katona faced more online criticism when her 16-year-old daughter Lilly-Sue – from her first marriage to singer Brian McFadden – showed off her weight loss on Instagram, revealing she’d been using a brand of diet shakes. Sharing “before” and “after” pictures, the schoolgirl told her followers she’d slimmed down…

When Chrissy Chambers, 28, was alerted to explicit videos of herself online, she assumed it was a mistake. But shockingly, the footage was real. Her ex-boyfriend had secretly recorded them having sex – and shared it to 37 different porn sites. Chrissy, a YouTuber, says, “When I saw the videos, I crumpled to the floor in horror. I was so drunk, I wasn’t in a position to consent and I can’t remember any of it. His face was hidden, but my limp body was sprawled across the bed, and my eyes looked dull. I felt violated and humiliated.” ASHAMED The number of revenge porn offences – in which intimate images or videos are shared without consent – being reported to police has more than doubled since 2015. But, despite revenge…

She was the star of Bridesmaids , but now Kristen Wiig is said to be set to be a bride, as reports claim she is engaged to actor boyfriend Avi Rothman. The actress, 45, set tongues wagging when she was spotted wearing a diamond ring in May, before reports went into overdrive last week that she was officially engaged. Kristen and Avi are thought to have been dating since May 2016 and have kept their relationship fiercely private. The actress tied the knot with Hayes Hargrove in 2005, but divorced four years later. Despite the rumours, she has previously insisted she wouldn’t get married again, saying, “It’s not something that I’d want to do. I think women put that pressure on themselves, maybe even more than society does, but, if…

After claiming she’d become “the most hated girl in Britain” following her Celebrity Big Brother “punchgate” scandal late last year with actor Ryan Thomas, she ended her engagement with steel worker fiancé Lee Walton and became a virtual recluse in the months that followed. AT ROCK BOTTOM Roxanne Pallet admitted to Closer that at her lowest she didn’t want to be alive after facing a huge public backlash when she falsely accused Ryan of punching her on the TV programme during what later turned out to be a harmless playfight. But more than a year on the actress has been pictured looking happy with new man Jason Carrion and has told pals the fireman – who also starred in Married At First Sight – is the hero she’s been looking…

It’s been ten years since reality star Jade Goody passed away, but her widower, Jack Tweed, 32, last week said that he has struggled to move on with someone new. Appearing on Good Morning Britain, Jack told the presenters, “I haven’t met anyone. I don’t feel like I could meet anyone yet, as no one really compared to Jade... so it’s unfair to put someone through that.” The couple were together for three years before marrying in February 2009. Tragically, the mum-of-two, who had two young sons from her relationship with Jeff Brazier, had been battling cervical cancer and died weeks later, on Mother’s Day. Here, Closer speaks to Mel Hayden, 45, who reveals how she managed her grief and eventually found love after losing her husband… ‘I couldn’t imagine…

She first made a name for herself on Big Brother in 2006 – gaining support from fans for her no-nonsense attitude and refreshing honesty. And as Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace arrives for our Closer photo shoot, the star is clearly no different 13 years on, telling us, “I’ve had a bit too much filler in my lips this weekend but, oh well, it’ll go down!” The 40-year-old former glamour model recently shocked fans when she was pictured wearing multiple compression bandages and with burnt-looking eyelids, after undergoing liposuction on her chin and arms and boosting her 34E-cup boobs to the maximum size allowed in the UK. The star also had her eyelids tightened and says no one was more surprised by her lengthy procedures than her boyfriend of eight months, Jay, whose…

In 2003, evil taxi driver Chris Halliwell murdered Becky-Godden Edwards, 20. With no leads, she was presumed missing, and her body never found. Then eight years later, he killed Sian O’Callaghan, 22, after picking her up in his taxi. When suspicion fell on Halliwell, he was questioned, and eventually admitted to both murders. But due to a bungled investigation – headed by DCI Steve Fulcher – he only faced trial for Sian’s murder .Halliwell wasn’t brought to justice for killing Becky, for a further four years. Now, ITV drama A Confession – which stars actor Martin Freeman as DCI Steve Fulcher and hits screens next month – tells the story of the investigations. DEVASTATED Sian’s devastated mum, Elaine Pickford, hopes the TV show will keep other young women safe. Elaine,…

Tina says, “There’s an awful lot of us who lie on television about our homes and our wealth, but I’m as honest as they come. Over the past few years, my life has changed considerably. When I left Shameless and paid for IVF to have Flame, I knew my income would take a hit. I’ve partied all over the world with the best of them and stayed at the fanciest hotels in London. I remember Christmases at my home in Alderley Edge, in Cheshire, with 18 people in my pool, with the best cutlery and the best food. Now, like everyone else, I shop in Aldi and Asda. I don’t have a driver, nor do I have a car any more. These days, I’m happier when I go to the…

How much do you spend per week? Anything between £60 and £100. If I buy all my house essentials too, then it goes up to £120 a week. I go to all of the big supermarkets, but I prefer shopping in store rather than online. Describe your daily diet… If I’m running around and going to the gym, I won’t have a proper breakfast – instead, I’ll have a fresh juice of ginger, apple, celery and cucumber. For lunch, I’ll either opt for a protein shake, a crab meat salad or turkey and cottage cheese on Ryvita. For dinner, I’ll tend to eat fish with veg. I snack on things like fruit, chocolate rice cakes and pea rice snaps dipped in houmous, popcorn or protein bars. What’s the strangest thing…

FAMILY MATTERS FINISH THE SCHOOL HOLIDAYS ON A HIGH! School’s been out for a while, so tensions are probably rising. Emma advises how to keep kids happy for the final weeks Boredom is the main cause of summer holiday squabbles and, at this point in the break, ideas can feel scarce and tempers can fray. Now’s the time to introduce your kids to a project. Last summer, my boys created a vegetable patch and a herb garden. To make sure they didn’t use the gardening equipment as weapons, they were given different complementary tasks daily. They learned new skills and worked to a common goal. There was lots of planning, visits to the garden centre to buy seeds, and much energy burned off digging. If you have older kids, create…

DON’T GET RIPPED OFF AT THE AIRPORT Most of us pick up a few bits in the terminal before jetting off, then kill time shopping on the way home – but it can be surprisingly pricey. Here’s how to avoid paying more… EAT AT CAFÉS NOT RESTAURANTS “Restaurants tend to be pricier in airports, as their operating costs are higher,” says Ken Synnott, marketing manager at the Fashion Retail Academy. “A classic burger with a soft drink costs £7.89 in Wetherspoons in Camden, but £9.85 – without the soft drink – in the Stansted branch. A Cajun chicken wrap costs £10.99 in Frankie & Benny’s, Liverpool, but £12.30 in Luton Airport. When you’re feeding a family of four, that can make a real difference.” Cafés are a safer bet, according…

Controversial dating show Naked Attraction’s new series includes a celebrity and a trans woman among those stripping off – and promises to be the most eye-opening series yet… It’s the show in which hopeful singletons appear nude on national TV, baring all inside a pod in the hope that a complete stranger will like what they see and pick them to go on a date. Now into series five, the explicit programme has caused a lot of raised eyebrows. It’s been dubbed “telly’s rudest show”, largely owing to all the close-up shots of male and female genitalia, with thousands of viewers complaining about its uncensored content since it first aired in 2016. Host Anna Richardson praises the series for showing a “huge diversity of bodies” and says seeing other people…

Former glamour girl Alicia Douvall – who rose to notoriety after a string of kiss-and-tells on famous men including Simon Cowell and P Diddy – was so obsessed with cosmetic procedures that she attended rehab for surgery addiction, which is why her daughter Georgia knows exactly what Jordan’s children will be going through. From an early age, Georgia, now 24, had to look after mum Alicia, 40 – who has had more than 350 procedures costing her over £1.5m – and help her recover from her operations. Alicia – who’s had 16 boob jobs, seven nose jobs, 11 eye lifts and three face lifts - previously admitted to Closer , “Georgia and I never had a conventional mum-and-daughter relationship. She grew up very quickly and, by ten, she’d help empty…

She’s endured a turbulent on-off romance with boyfriend James “Arg” Argent and last week Gemma Collins backed Paul Hollywood for asking his now ex-girlfriend Summer Monteys-Fullam to sign a gagging order – insisting she’d dump Arg if he refused to sign one. Insiders say she’s terrified of him disclosing her secrets if they split for good. Opening up about her fears, Gemma insisted, “If James didn’t sign an NDA, I’d be like, ‘See you later, honey’”. SELLING STORIES An NDA – non-disclosure agreement – is a contract in which a person agrees not to reveal the confidential information of another, and Gemma hopes if the pair agreed to marry he would sign one to stop him ever selling stories about her. A source reveals, “Gemma has told pals she does…

• Once someone has sexually explicit images or videos of you, it’s hard to control how they use them. Even if you are in a relationship, think carefully before you share any sexual images with somebody. • If you become a victim of revenge porn, report the intimate images to the site they’re being shared on. Facebook and Instagram have policies in place to help prevent revenge porn from being shared on users’ profiles. • Social media can remove pictures quickly when they are reported, but that could leave you without proof of a crime – make sure to take screenshots before your images are lost. • Go to the police. Revenge porn is now a criminal offence in England and Wales. Create a timeline to present exactly what has…

JEREMY’S ‘SURPRISE’ AT CHLOE’S NEW MAN With speculation mounting that her controversial engagement to Jeremy Meeks is over, Chloe Green has been letting her hair down with a new man. The Topshop heiress, 28, was caught in a close embrace with Monte Carlo’s polo captain Rommy Gianni, 42, earlier this month, as the pair canoodled on her father Philip Green’s yacht – adding to the rumours that she has ended her engagement to “hot felon” Jeremy. And last week sources claimed Chloe and Jeremy, 35 – who share son Jayden, one – are “off and on” but that the model, who soared to fame when his prison mug shot went viral following his 2014 arrest for theft and possession of a firearm, was “surprised” by the recent photos. And now…

They’ve been out of the villa for less than a month, but already this year’s Love Islanders have taken the showbiz world by storm – landing big TV jobs, clothing deals and sponsorships. Villa favourite Ovie Soko recently took part in a cooking segment on This Morning, while Maura Higgins has reportedly landed her own spin-off show after also appearing on the hit daytime programme. Her beau Curtis Pritchard has nabbed a prime role alongside Cheryl on BBC talent show The Greatest Dancer. Meanwhile, Amber Gill and Amy Hart have secured guest panellist roles on Loose Women – and the likes of Tommy Fury and Yewande Biala have been charging £5K an hour for PAs in nightclubs around the UK. Some single ex-Islanders have further boosted their profiles by coupling…

‘SHE’S JUST GOING TO REVEL IN BEING THE RICHEST, MOST FAMOUS MEMBER OF THE FAMILY’ She couldn’t wait to share photos of her extravagant 22nd birthday party, which she hosted on a £1 million-a-week super yacht in Italy last week – flaunting designer outfits, breakfasts on gold-plated dishes and lavish gifts including a pink and white diamond necklace from boyfriend Travis Scott. But fans were less than impressed by Kylie Jenner’s “ostentatious” behaviour – slamming the world’s youngest billionaire for throwing a bash when she could have spent the money on making a huge difference to so many good causes. One commented, “Vile, crass, tacky with no value for money. This makes me sick.” However, pals close to the entrepreneur say she doesn’t care about the backlash and bizarrely thinks…

Closer’s psychological therapist, Emma Kenny, says it’s important not to put your late partner on a pedestal. She says, “Jack is in a difficult situation because Jade’s legacy is larger than life. What she has become is maybe less  what he remembers and more what is written in the press. But a lot of widowed partners will experience something similar to this – the partner they lost is remembered as perfect, and no one could ever compare. But there are ways of moving on, you just have to be realistic about what you had in order to be able to open yourself up to a new relationship. For example, if you tell yourself that you and your late partner never argued, the first bicker with someone new could mean the…

She’s been open with fans over the years about her body battles, and last week Vicky Pattison won praise on Instagram after opening up about her recent weight gain and posting a photo of herself in underwear now, alongside an old bikini shot of herself. The 31-year-old, who still looks toned and trim, revealed to fans that she wouldn’t be apologising for letting her hair down after enduring the “year from hell”, which saw her best friend Paul Burns tragically die and her engagement to fiancé John Noble collapse after he was caught getting close to other women. UPS AND DOWNS The former Geordie Shore star – who has fluctuated between a size 6 and a size 16 – said, “I have not stopped travelling, laughing, loving and working (if…

‘Unconscious racism exists – we’ve got to change the way kids think’ Prince Harry recently spoke out about “unconscious racism”, where he believes that, although we may not realise it, a lot of us have prejudiced ways of thinking ingrained into us. I totally agree with this. Although it may not be glaringly obvious, sometimes we have thoughts or presumptions about certain types of people because of the way we’ve been brought up. For example, brown people are associated with being studious and clever. That’s a good reputation to have, but it meant that going into something like entertainment wasn’t really the norm for me. I remember going on Blue Peter and I was held up as the first Asian presenter, and had to face perceptions of tokenism. Equality starts…

When Halliwell confessed to murdering Sian O’Callaghan on 24 March 2011, he shockingly asked Detective Superintendent Steve Fulcher if he wanted “another one”. DSI Fulcher had taken Halliwell to a remote area in Wiltshire because he thought Sian could still be alive and Halliwell might lead him to her but, once there, Halliwell admitted killing Sian. He then confessed to killing another young woman, later identified as Becky Godden-Edwards, 20, who had been missing since 2003, and took the detective to her remains. But because DSI Fulcher hadn’t followed police protocol and cautioned Halliwell or offered him a solicitor, Halliwell couldn’t be prosecuted for Becky’s murder. Despite having led the DSI to her body, Halliwell went on to deny murdering Becky and claimed DCI Fulcher had threatened his family so…

More information is coming out about the effect that blue light has on our bodies, with some dermatologists even comparing it to UV and UVA rays in terms of potential damage. It’s cause for concern, as we spend so many hours on our phones, iPads, TVs and computers. So, how can we counteract this potential damage? WHAT IS BLUE LIGHT? It’s the bright light that emanates from digital devices, so things like smartphones, computers and HD televisions – even fluorescent light bulbs. HOW DOES IT AFFECT SKIN? According to Megan Felton, co-founder of skincare consultancy Lion/ne, “Recent studies have shown that this light impacts on the rhythm of our skin cells. It can even have the same effect on your skin as being directly in the sun. More than that,…

‘ YOU CAN CUT YOUR RISK OF GETTING DEMENTIA’ If you’re caring for a relative with the disease, it’s natural to worry you’ll develop it, too – but Dr C says genes only play a small part There has been some good news on dementia. A recent study found that having a high genetic risk or strong family history of the disease doesn’t mean it’s inevitable you’ll get it, too. Lifestyle is key. MAKE SOME CHANGES Family history is important, but it isn’t the biggest risk factor – age is. If a family member had dementia or Alzheimer’s in their seventies or eighties, that doesn’t mean it was genetic. A genetic component is more likely if they had it when they were younger than 60 – but even then, it’s…

In these hyper-competitive dating times we’ve all got to do what’s needed to make our dating app profiles stand out. But a new trend is sweeping through the app sphere: “dogfishing”, the art of posing with a pet in order to attract potential suitors.

“She just can’t believe that yet again she’s fallen for a wrong ’un,” says actress Sue Cleaver, 55, of her character Eileen’s disastrous love life. “So when Jan tells her that he was working undercover for the police, she’s having none of it,” says Sue. “He tells her that he loves her, but she has had her fingers burned too many times and she can’t believe anything he says.” But is Jan really a baddie – or will Eileen finally get a happy ending?…

Did you enjoy making Sanditon ? Absolutely! Usually I’m in the kitchen in these dramas. For some reason, people think I look domesticated. One thing I would say is that the costumes of the kitchen staff are a great deal easier to wear than those of this woman, who is part of the landed gentry. Tell us about your character. Jane Austen described my character very clearly in the novel and that’s a great gift for an actor. Lady Denham has worked her way up. She’s managed to get a title and money by using her feminine wiles to secure a profitable marriage. What other traits does she possess? Like a lot of Austen characters, she’s terribly mean with her money. Her money was hard to come by so, now…
