Peter defended his marriage to Emily Peter Andre hit back at haters who claimed Emily MacDonagh looked ‘like a 12-year-old’ after he posted a snap of his 29-year-old wife. Defending his significant other, the singer, 45, wrote, ‘The joke’s on them, because while they might think they’re being cruel, they’re actually paying her a huge compliment.’ We couldn’t agree more, Pete! Malin announced the heartbreaking loss of her baby girl Malin Andersson’s baby tragically passed away after being born seven weeks prematurely on 23 December. The Love Island star – who appeared in the 2016 series of the show – named her little one after her late mother, Consy, who sadly died in November 2017. Taking to Instagram, the reality star posted an image of her beautiful girl followed…

When Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham were on Love Island , they were determined to avoid the on-screen sex the show is famous for. And so the moments of old-fashioned formality made sense. But why the hands-off awkwardness now? And were the pair uneasy with the interview on Lorraine, or with one another? Judi James reveals all. ANXIOUS ACTIONS Jack is far more active and chatty than Dani, who has tucked one hand between crossed legs in what seems like a self-comfort barrier gesture. This was one of a flurry of anxious-looking rituals from Dani, including fiddling with her cuffs and her watch, and using a tight hand clasp with meshed fingers. SMILING ON One of a couple of moments when Dani did turn to look at Jack with eye…

You’ve probably heard of a work sabbatical, but what about a sex sabbatical? The news just in, is that a growing number of millennials are now taking a break from what most of us are trying to get more of – sex. Could the UK be in a sex recession? A recent study* found that the average number of romps enjoyed by 16-44-year-olds has dropped to less than five times a month. Celebrities are curbing their bedroom antics, too. Singers Lady Gaga, 32, and Nicki Minaj, 36, have both admitted giving up sex for long periods to boost their creativity. Here, two women reveal why they banned sex from their lives. ‘I thought I was settled for the rest of my life’ Veronique Morato, 45, a voice-over artist from Watford,…

Kerry Katona and Ampika KPickston have been the best of friends since they were introduced by a mutual pal. In 2017, Ampika, 37, even moved Kerry into her home, after her split from her third husband George Kay. And the decision not only helped put the 38-year-old back on her feet, as Kerry shed two stone, but also launched Ampika’s fitness business Skinny Revolution. Here, as we catch up with the bubbly twosome, they fill us in on their fitness journey, and why they won’t be settling for just anyone as they approach their 40s… You both look great! Are you feeling body confident? K: I feel very confident. I went too thin at one point, but Skinny Revolution has kept me at this weight. A: I feel more confident…

‘Ever since I was little, I’d always struggled with my weight. In school, I was one of the bigger girls, and I knew that. But I loved food – all kinds, I wasn’t fussy – and eating satisfied my addiction. While my mum’s home-cooked meals were relatively healthy, school dinners consisted of lots of fried food or sugary puddings. On top of that, I’d spend any pocket money I had at the tuck shop at break time, stocking up on cookies or muffins. Vicious cycle ‘I’d console myself with chocolate and crisps’ The bigger I got, the worse I felt about my appearance. While all my friends would meet at Topshop every Saturday to get their hands on the latest fashion, I’d struggle to find just one item in the…

Rosie loves Long-wearing, full of pigment and vegan-friendly, it’s not hard to see why bareMinerals’ Global Beauty Ambassador Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is a fan of this new lipstick. Available in 20 soft, matte shades, it simply glides on. bareMinerals’ Global Makeup Artist, Nikki DeRoest, says, ‘You can apply it to the cheeks or eyelids, and the formula is so velvety it blends beautifully.’ Supermodel lips, here we come!

1 Don’t expect miracles If your ex wasn’t Magic Mike before, he’s unlikely to be now. Shame. ‘Sex with an ex is like visiting a favourite restaurant,’ says relationship and sex mentor Colin Richards (intimacymatters.co.uk). ‘Familiar surroundings, familiar faces and, unless the chef has changed the menu, familiar food that while it may satisfy your immediate hunger, probably won’t get your taste buds bursting. So the sex is likely to be comfortable but predictable.’ A bit like holidaying at Center Parcs. 2 Prepare to lose it Cluedo, charades, KerPlunk. These are games we like to play. Mind ones? Not so much, ta. ‘Who dumped who?’ warns Colin. ‘A possible motivation may be to win them back or it could be retribution to show them what they’re missing.’ Stick to KerPlunk.…

THEN Freema Agyeman found fame as David Tennant’s companion in the 2007 series of Doctor Who, before going on to star as lawyer Alesha Phillips in ITV drama Law & Order: UK.

National Television Awards WHEN: 22 JANUARY WHERE: THE O2 ARENA, LONDON This Morning , Strictly Come Dancing and Emmerdale were among the big winners of the night. For the ninth year running, Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield picked up the gong for Best Daytime Show. But the pair couldn’t wait to celebrate, as Phil took a swig from a hip flask backstage. Claudia Winkleman, Tess Daly and the cast of Strictly were overjoyed to scoop Best Talent Show, and although she missed out on a prize for Our Girl , Michelle Keegan’s husband Mark Wright wasn’t going to miss out on supporting her, having flown over from LA to attend the awards do –…

The comparisons between the Duchess of Sussex and Princess Diana are endless. From their humanitarian work to their matching outfits, there’s no denying their lives have many parallels. But could actress Meghan’s seeming desire to transform the monarchy – like Diana so famously did through her interaction with the public – simply be her biggest role yet? Sibling wars It’s no secret Diana and the Queen didn’t always see eye to eye, and it’s been widely reported that Meghan’s behaviour has ruffled a few feathers since she joined The Firm. But it’s not just Her Majesty – Meghan is said to have driven a wedge between husband Harry and his brother William. According to insiders, Harry, 34, was reportedly ‘upset’ that his sibling ‘wasn’t rolling out the red carpet’ for…

Victoria Beckham wants you all to know she has a ‘difficult’ life. We know, the idea that Posh Spice has any actual worries is laughable. This is the woman who gets to go to bed with David Beckham, and let’s not forget the global fame and millions in the bank. VB recently revealed she spends two hours a day in the gym and confessed she’ll probably be jealous when the other Spice Girls reunite later this year. We’ve got the answer, Vic: chill out and have a bit of fun… oh, and let that ‘disciplined’ diet go and eat a KitKat. Go on! Sleepless nights We could think of a few things we’d be doing (ahem, David) if we were Victoria, after a long day’s work. However, despite the many…

As the biggest girl group in the world right now, it’s fair to say there’s probably a queue of famous men waiting to date the Little Mix ladies. Jade Thirlwall is currently loved up with The Struts rocker Jed Elliott, while Perrie Edwards and Leigh-Anne Pinnock took the Victoria Beckham route, settling down with footballers Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Andre Gray respectively. So it came as a bit of a surprise when Jesy Nelson recently confirmed her romance with former Love Island star Chris Hughes. Surely there’s some celebrity law of physics when it comes to pop superstars and people who make their names having sex on TV? But it’s not the first time Jesy, 27, has dated men ranked far below her on the fame food chain, and relationship expert…

Kristen Stewart The Twilight actress, 28, looks like she’s been taking fashion inspiration from Eddie Izzard with this blazer and metallic trouser combo… Well, she’ll definitely be seen in the dark! Alesha Dixon Alesha, 40, has found a bizarre way to make use of baggy trousers – by wearing them all at the same time. Let’s hope she remembers to undo the trio of flies. Kelly Brook The glamorous model, 39, usually knows how to look sexy in nothing but a mere nightslip, but come on, Kelly – even you should know to save that old hoodie for going to the corner shop! Rita Ora Anyone would think the singer, 28, was trying to draw attention to her boobs by turning her cut-out top into a…

Lucy Kuy, 35, a psychotherapist from Letchworth, lives with her husband Alex, 38, and three-month-old daughter Ruby ‘In my 20s I was working as a PA in London and quickly fell into the work hard, play harder lifestyle. I was young and got caught up in the drinking culture of the city. I’d go out every night and drink to excess. It meant I met a lot of guys, and bounced from one to another without realising how bad it was making me feel. I thought I was looking for The One – when really I was just sleeping with all the wrong types of men. My colleagues eventually had a word with me when I was 29 and, while it was hard to hear, I knew they were right.…

Regular exfoliation removes dead cells and reveals new ones that are plumper, firmer and hold more moisture – hello, glow! It also helps make-up sit nicely and makes other skincare more effective. Which type is best for you is mostly down to preference. Scrubs can increase oil flow so are ideal for dry skin, while combination types should opt for exfoliators or peels with pore-unclogging salicylic acid if you’re blemish prone. Sensitive? Try an enzyme as they tend to be mild and non-irritating. GENTLE SCRUBS Classic exfoliators with apricot and walnut kernels can cause micro tears in the skin barrier. The answer? Gentle formulas. For radiant skin worthy of Emily, The Body Shop Vitamin C Glow Boosting abrasion Treatm £18, ha silica and a n tin boo add a few…

Hi Guys! This week I want to talk about Vicky Pattison and TOWIE’ s Ercan Ramadan. Vicky , who has only recently split fr om her ex-fiancé John Noble, has been seen kissing Ercan. Now, I’m all for moving on fr om heartbreak but it has to be in a healthy way that isn’t damaging to y ourself or anyone else. The fir st stage of healing your heart needs to happen on your own. Once you involve another per son you’re merely distracting yourself rather than dealing with your distress. My advice to Vicky would be to slow things down, spend quality time with her closest friends and family and heal in private. Dear Annabelle, I want to have sex but I just seem to tense…

Hey, Rebecca! What’s your favourite way to work out? CrossFit or weight training. It’s so different from what I did when I swam. Learning all the movements and proper techniques keeps it interesting so I don’t get bored. Even though I’m sore afterwards, I like that I can feel it’s doing something and making me stronger. How do you motivate yourself? Over the years, I’ve found a balance and I only work out about three times a week. If I did more, I would lose interest. Any fitness challenges coming up? Last year I did Tough Mudder, Rough Runner and UK Challenge. This year I’m doing my first ever sprint triathlon – plus a Tough Mudder and UK Challenge! Which body part do you struggle with? My tummy. I love…

Make a pastrami wrap like Love Island’s Camilla & Jamie’s TAKES: 5 mins SERVES: 1 ENJOY: For a New York deli-inspired light lunch YOU WILL NEED: 1 mini wrap 2 slices pastrami 1 small tomato, sliced 1 dill pickle, sliced 30g Little Gem lettuce, shredded 1tsp chopped chives 10g American yellow mustard 1 Heat a griddle pan until really hot, then warm the mini wrap for 10-20 seconds on each side – just enough to warm it through and leave light grill marks. 2 Remove the wrap from the heat and fill with the pastrami, tomato, dill pickle, shredded lettuce and chopped chives. Drizzle with the American mustard, then roll up and slice in half diagonally to serve. Cook roasted chicken and chorizo with sweet potatoes like Ruth Langsford’s TAKES:…

ARIANA GRANDE She looked like… THEN Natural Ariana used to embrace her natural curls and pale skin when she first broke into the industry and didn’t wear much make-up. NOW Preened to perfection A decade later and Ari is rarely without her sleek high ponytail, fake tan, smoky eye make-up and bold lip colour. She was saying... THEN ‘Whatever I end up doing in my career, I really hope it is in this sort of business, being on Broadway or recording albums. I really hope I’m just always singing.’ NOW ‘I have everything I’ve ever dreamt of having, and as of late I’ve discovered that it’s the things I’ve always had and the people I’ve always had that make me the happiest.’ She was wearing... THEN Cute Back in 2008,…

Colour block It looked like Meg was taking a leaf out of Di’s book here, as she paired a red coat with a purple Aritzia dress, matching the colours worn by the late princess at the Taj Mahal. The Markle sparkle? We think not! Overlook the slightly different cut, and Meghan’s sparkly number looks eerily similar to Princess Di’s Catherine Walker dress from 1990. Right on the button While Meghan’s LBD is a little more demure than Diana’s red-carpet dress, we can’t deny the striking resemblance. Cool and casual At the 2017 Invictus Games, Meghan delighted fans with her casual denim look. The same style is said to have earned Diana her unofficial title of ‘The People’s Princess’.…

Caroline Flack snogs Strictly’sAJ Love Island host Caroline Flack didn’t let losing out on an National Television Award stop her from getting her hands on a new toyboy. The 39-year-old, who split from fiancé Andrew Brady last year, was spotted getting cosy with Strictly professional dancer AJ Pritchard, 24. And with her ex currently in Australia, Caroline proved he was out of sight, out of mind. The pair were spotted talking at the afterparty, and an onlooker said, ‘AJ had his arm around Caroline at the bar, and they didn’t care who saw.’ Other partygoers claimed they moved for some privacy before locking lips. Caz has been linked to a string of younger men, including Olly Murs and Harry Styles, while AJ has kept…

Jordan Banjo Jesy and the less-famous Banjo brother got together in 2012, but split just 10 months later when it was reported Jordan was struggling to cope with Jesy’s fame. Jake Roche Best known as the son of Shane Richie and Coleen Nolan and not for the music of his band Rixton, it’s definitely fair to say interest in Jake peaked when he got with Jesy. Chris Clark Jesy and TOWIE boy Chris getting together gave 20-something men who still live with their mums hope that better times were coming. But Chris soon dumped Jesy and got back with ex Amber Dowding.…

Pixie Lott She sang about Catching Snowflakes in 2009, and it looks like the singer, 28, might have been practising to do just that, as she stripped down in the Swiss Alps. Wearing a white two-piece as her bare bottom rested on the snow, you’d never have guessed the sub-zero temperatures. Oh, the frostbite! Kourtney Kardashian Famous for her curves, Kourt put a lot on snow during a family holiday to Aspen, Colorado. Despite her younger sister Kendall admitting ‘F*** it’s cold’, as she posted an equally revealing picture, Kourtney, 39, donned a metallic bikini, snow boots and an open puffer jacket (that ought to keep her warm). But with a body like hers, we can’t say we really blame her. Rihanna Ri-Ri gave us major chills as she took…

I’m more confident since Love Island It doesn’t necessarily come across, but I’m definitely more confident than I was before Love Island. I’ve become more comfortable in my own skin and I’m more inclined to make the right decision for Jamie and me. Don’t get me wrong, I have days when I feel hurt by comments, but it’s just one of those things that we’ve had to get used to. Jamie is good at not letting me entertain the opinions of people who don’t know us. He’s great at being the voice of reason. I WANT TO GO TO SYRIA I’ve got so many things I’d still like to do. I’d love to go back to Afghanistan at some point, if possible. My job (in explosive ordinance disposal) is the…

Caroline Flack Sadly, Caroline’s leopard-print dress is a Topshop oldie, but you can still copy her style with this Warehouse number. Pairing with ankle boots keeps it smart yet casual. Victoria Beckham Showing she means business, VB rocks this grey suit from her own collection.

It’s easy to assume that models don’t have embarrassing body issues like the rest of us, especially when we’re constantly reminded on social media how ‘perfect’ they are. But one beauty who is breaking those barriers is John Legend’s wife Chrissy, 33, who tweeted a photo of the hives and stretch marks on her thighs. ‘It’s refreshing to see celebs sharing the reality behind the polished looks and perfect pictures,’ says ‘self-love’ stylist Chelle Shohet. ‘Unrealistic expectations and low self-esteem come from continuously comparing yourself and your body to a host of Photoshopped images.’ But while social media is often the cause of so many issues regarding body image, it could also be the solution. ‘The internet and all forms of media have the potential to be both positive and…

Why do I need it? Around one in four of us in the UK will experience a mental health problem, according to the charity Mind. And that statistic doesn’t mean in a lifetime, that’s each and every year. However, the University of Rochester Medical Centre (URMC) found that keeping a journal can help you cope with anxiety, reduce stress and manage feelings of depression. But, how? Not only does it enable you to prioritise your problems and fears, it lets you track symptoms day-today so you can recognise triggers and adapt ways to control them. Plus, you’ll be transported back to your teens – and who doesn’t need a youth boost every once in a while? Sold. Now what? URMC recommends setting aside a few minutes each day, and keeping…

Breakfast 400 cals Greek yogurt, fruit and granola with herbal tea ASHTON SAYS: Greek comes in a few different ways, high fat, medium fat and 0% fat. Each have very different calories so choose wisely. Lunch 500 cals Poached eggs on toast with a cappuccino ASHTON SAYS: Eggs are great and high in protein. Poaching them keeps the calories down compared to frying or scrambling with butter. Dinner 500 cals Steak with Tenderstem broccoli and sweet potato ASHTON SAYS: Steak is high in iron and zinc as well as protein, making it a great meat choice. The higher fat content can make it more calorific than lean meats but that’s OK. Snacks 450 cals Banana, chocolate, protein bar ASHTON SAYS: Protein bars are a convenient way to add more protein…

In Dave’s new panel show Hypothetical, Josh Widdicombe and James Acaster test two teams of comedians on their ability to deal with ridiculous scenarios. Here, Josh tells us what to expect, where the idea came from and why he’s livid about Question Time’s new presenter… Where did the idea for Hypothetical come from? On tour there’s a lot of time to kill. I’ve always found posing questions to the tour manager or support act as a fun way to while away the time and one night I thought it would be a good idea for a comedy show. It was one of those things where you have an idea and you think, ‘This won’t go anywhere,’ and before you know it you’re in a studio thinking, ‘God, I’ve got to…

Partying all night I was supposed to be at the NTAs, but I was so late after meetings in town and then getting caught in traffic because of the snow that I bloody missed it. I made it for the afterparties though, and was out with my friends including Yaz and Lockie. People don’t realise it, as  I don’t plaster my entire life all over social media, but I’m really close to Yaz. We go out loads and always have a right laugh. We started at the Mayfair hotel bar and then went to the official NTA afterparty at the London Reign club, then back to the Mayfair for the after-afterparty! Did Ant deserve the NTA? There’s been a bit of a public outcry about Ant winning Best Presenter at…
