Meghan’s showbiz baby shower WHEN: 19 FEBRUARY WHERE: THE MARK HOTEL, NEW YORK The Duchess of Sussex left her husband Harry behind while she – and the bump – jetted to New York for baby shower celebrations with her old friends. Slipping back into her former lifestyle, she was spotted leaving The Surrey hotel for lunch with Suits actress Abigail Spencer and stopping by The Met Breuer art museum. Later, gifts including a convertible crib and dozens of flowers, were dropped off at The Mark Hotel, where A-list pals Serena Williams and Amal Clooney had organised a party fit for royalty. We’re not jealous at all! Flack gets a fine WHEN: 19 FEBRUARY WHERE: CENTRAL LONDON Caroline showed she was less than impressed to find a…

Pop star Jess Glynne has had a tough few days – not only had she been forced to pull out of gigs to look after her health, but she missed out on four gongs at the BRIT Awards, despite a stellar performance of her song, Thursday . But the 29-year-old musician didn’t let doctor’s orders, or not winning, get in the way of a good after-party – and Now was there. Just a few days before the BRITs, Jess revealed on Twitter she had to use a whiteboard to communicate while resting her voice. But to our amazement, just an hour after the BRITs, Jess could hardly put the mic down. She even tilted her head right back to hit the high notes during a two-hour voyage along the River…

Psychologist Emma Kenny ( ekenny.co.uk ) says, ‘One-night stands can be fabulous and empowering as long as you are emotionally resilient enough to manage them. However, some women may end up feeling guilt, shame or embarrassment. So long as you are safe, you should feel that how, and who you have sex with is your choice, with the main question being ‘Does it make you happy?’ If the answer is yes, and you leave the experience feeling great about your sex life and self-esteem, you should unashamedly and unapologetically keep doing what works best for you.’…

Victoria and Harper Beckham Harper Beckham made us do a double-take at mum Victoria’s latest fashion show. Fans noticed how the seven-year-old’s new haircut bore a strong resemblance to US Vogue editor’s Anna Wintour’s signature bob – and she was sat close to her. Even her dad David posted a snap pointing out the similarity. Smooth move, VB! Cheryl and Bear Payne Fans may have initially been excited about Cheryl’s musical comeback, but her X Factor performance in November was hailed a flop. Just weeks later, the Geordie singer, 35, began posting a series of photos of her one-year-old son Bear, despite previously insisting she’d be keeping him out of the limelight. Katie Price and Princess Andre Katie Price, 40, claimed it…

Stars often go through bizarre beauty procedures – the most recent being Victoria, 44, who started using a moisturiser made with her own blood. But do any of these weird treatments work? ‘In my opinion, it’s a case of having more money than sense,’ says Dr Ross Perry, director of Cosmedics. ‘PRP (platelet-rich plasma, found in blood) can help repair and regenerate when inside the body. However, putting this in a cream is the ultimate ‘false hope in a jar’ as there’s no way of these natural healing factors surviving outside the body.’ But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. What about bee-sting therapy, as tried by actress Gwyneth Paltrow? ‘This is performed by placing a bee onto a person’s skin and then stimulating it to sting, allowing Melittin…

1 Set daily goals Whether it’s your work or weight – we all have our targets, and this can hugely affect your sleep. Accomplishing aims will rid you of any worry or distraction when it comes to hitting the hay. ‘Set yourself a realistic target that you can work towards daily, so you stay motivated,’ says Erin. 2 Use a schedule No more box set binges or late-night snacking. ‘Stick to a bedtime and use the hour before to ready your mind and body for sleep,’ explains Erin. ‘Listen to music or white noise, read, have sex – whichever way you like to chill out. This teaches your body to recognise when it’s tired. 3 Breathe deeply If you’re a fan of ancient yogic traditions, then listen up. ‘It’s believed…

Breakfast 480 cals Three-egg omelette with spinach, cheese and half an avocado ASHTON SAYS: High-protein breakfasts are a great way to start the day and there’s no better breakfast than eggs. They are packed full of nutrients that will benefit the body. Lunch 300 cals Chicken with a little green salad and couscous ASHTON SAYS: Lean meats such as chicken are a great option as their low fat content means reduced calories. A perfect meal if you want a lower-calorie lunch. Dinner 500 cals Cod with sweet potato and boiled rice ASHTON SAYS: A high-carb meal like this won’t be for everyone, but carbs aren’t the devil! This meal is ideal for recovering from training. Cod is also lower in calories than salmon or fatty meats, which means it’s another…

The BRIT Awards WHEN: 20 FEBRUARY WHERE: O2 ARENA, LONDON The BRITs turned out to be relatively tame this year (aside from host Jack Whitehall’s wisecracks with celebs), but it didn’t stop it being one of The Greatest Show[man]s of the year. Hugh Jackman opened the event in amazing style and Pink closed in spectacular fashion after winning a Lifetime Achievement award. Dua Lipa joined Calvin Harris on stage for one of his two big wins, and Calvin’s medley with Rag ‘n’ Bone Man for Giant , then Sam Smith for Promises , and finally Dua for One Kiss was a BRITs first. Little Mix put on a typically sassy show and scooped an award for Best British…

Do we hear wedding bells? Since leaving Love Island, people have been asking when me and Dani will get married and have babies. I think it’s important for us and everyone to remember we’re still in a fresh relationship and still learning loads about one another. However, we’re doing it with a million cameras and eyes on us – it’s certainly not an average relationship. We’re just enjoying ourselves with the flat and little Sandy [their dog] and trying not to rush into anything at the moment. ‘I’ve always been happy with my body!’ I’ve teamed up with Protein World and am the face of their ‘Transformation’ campaign. The mission is to lose weight and get fighting fit for my upcoming boxing match. For 12 weeks, I’ll be involved in…

Lisa Armstrong has been open about the betrayal she felt watching ex-husband Ant McPartlin move on with Anne-Marie Corbett. So when photos emerged of Lisa, 42, on what appeared to be a date with chef James Howarth, 44, last week, there were hopes she’d finally found happiness again. Reports claimed the make-up artist was ‘looking for love’, and James had helped her get her ‘sparkle back’ – but Now can exclusively reveal that this isn’t the case. Unsurprisingly, Lisa is not ready to throw herself back into the dating scene just yet, with a friend close to the make-up artist telling us, ‘Lisa found the reports laughable. The split from Ant has made it hard for her to trust anyone, and it will be a long time before she’s ready…

He’s succeeded where many UK reality stars have failed by achieving some level of international success, which is why it’s even more surprising that Mark Wright has turned his back on the American dream. ‘His success was causing a little bit of competition’ Last week Mark, 32, said it felt like the ‘right time’ for a return to Essex to be with wife Michelle Keegan and his family, after spending two years as a host on US entertainment show Extra. And we’re told that Mark – who shot to fame on The Only Way Is Essex in 2010 – is hoping that he and Michelle, 31, will finally get around to agreeing to start a family. ‘Mark will never admit it but his success in America was starting to cause…

Gemma Collins Nearing the end of her Céline Dion routine on this series of Dancing on Ice , The GC, 38, took a dramatic tumble – and oh did we feel it. She later revealed the extent of her injuries when she posted a video of a huge bag of ice resting on her swollen knees, as she knocked back a brandy and whined, ‘I’m in complete agony.’ We hear ya, Gem. Kay Burley Sky News presenter Kay, 58, was thrown in at the deep end when she took part in the second series of the show in 2007. ‘I spent a lot of time having my head drilled to the ice, and I was knocked unconscious,’ she revealed. ‘I broke ribs, I had a black eye…

When I found out my mum’s breast cancer had returned in January 2017 – almost five years after getting the all clear – I felt like my whole world was falling apart. This time, it had spread to her brain, lungs and liver. And while she started chemotherapy, there wasn’t much doctors could do. ‘I gave up my job to be her full-time carer’ Over the next few months, we focused on making as many memories together as possible. It had always been Mum and me, ever since I was little. She was like a parent, my best friend and my soulmate all rolled into one. I gave up my job as a primary school teacher to become her full-time carer, taking short breaks only when my aunts or cousins…

1 Doing the dirty Let’s face it, bathrooms take a lot of crap. Literally. But how can the place where you’re grappling with King Kong’s right arm one minute be erotic enough to channel a wet damsel in distress the next? It’s all in the setting. ‘Get some scented candles,’ urges Lovehoney’s sex expert Sammi Cole. ‘And, if you’re sharing a house, stick on music to mask those moans!’ 2 Go careful now Ever wondered why pensioners have handles in their showers?

Former Call The Midwife star Jessica Raine joins the third episode of BBC1’s crime thriller Baptiste. Here, she tells us about her character and how she coped with filming while pregnant Tell us about your character in Baptiste, Genevieve? Genevieve is an officer who works at Europol and she’s head of a team trying to get evidence to corner this Eastern European gang. You start off wondering if she’s a goodie or a baddie. But after a rocky start, Genevieve and Baptiste [Tchéky Karyo] become a good team. She seems quite different from the roles we’ve seen you play before… Genevieve is incredibly focused and dogmatic. She’s pretty ruthless and rubs people up the wrong way and that’s what attracted me to her, really. She was so focused to the…

These days it’s a rarity to see Strictly host Tess Daly and husband Vernon Kay out together. Not only would the couple have to find someone to look after their two daughters Phoebe, 14, and Amber, nine, but they’ve had the odd blip following Vernon’s 2010 ‘sexting scandal’. Judi James tells us why Tess may look slightly tense next to him… FEELING AFFECTIONATE? Tess’s raised back and forward lean suggest she’s keen to get inside. She’s walked ahead, but Vernon has encased her left hand in a two-handed, affectionate-looking clasp. The way her fingers have curled up around his hand suggests the feeling is reciprocal. TOUCH OF TEAMWORK Vernon might quietly be less formal and more romantic than his front-facing pose suggests. As his wife bends to chat to some…

Khloé’s boyfriend ‘cheats with Kylie’s best friend’ Khloé Kardashian is said to have dumped Tristan Thompson after he cheated on her with sister Kylie Jenner’s BFF Jordyn Woods, (left). The NBA player, 27, was allegedly ‘all over’ the 21-year-old model at a house party in his LA home, where she stayed until 7am. Khloé, 34, did little to quell the rumours with the following Instagram post: ‘If you break someone and they still wish you the best –you’ve lost the greatest thing for you in life.’ Khloé’s best friend Malika Haqq slammed Jordyn online, writing, ‘These h**s ain’t loyal.’ Tell it like is, girl! Still, this isn’t the first time sports star Tristan is thought to have been unfaithful to the Kardashian sister. Just days before Khloé gave birth to…

Ashley Simpson Did Ash have a clearout before the Hollywood Beauty Awards? It looks like she’s taken the trash with her in this black bin-bag ensemble. Maya Jama Crushed velvet is in and out of style, but wearing it head to toe with faux fur is a bit much. This is one outfit we ain’t crushing on. Lily Allen With this tie-dye and khaki combo, Lily looks like she’s on the way to Glastonbury (you’re a bit early, Lil) where she’s going to trade in her expensive Gucci bag for a giant tent. Paloma Faith The singer appears to have used her shower curtain as a coat, but with its studded design it could pass for a non-slip bath mat. Sure does suck! Nicole Scherzinger Got something you want to…

‘Casual sex is empowering’ Liv Jones, 29, from London, says having one-night stands have boosted her confidence If a woman wants a one-night stand then why the hell not? For me, every time I’ve had them I’ve felt great afterwards. I’ve been in two long-term relationships in the last eight years – one for five years and the other for just two. ‘I love the intense, illicit thrill of a one-nighter’ While I love regular sex with someone I care about, I also love the intense, illicit thrill of a one-nighter when I’m single. It’s nice to have sex even if you’re not dating. It takes me a while to be happily single after a break-up, but when I’ve been out and enjoyed flirting with a guy, I like the…

From vajazzle appointments to organising play dates, a lot has changed for Sam and Billie Faiers since they shot to fame on reality show The Only Way is Essex in 2010. Not only are they now both mums-of-two – Billie to Nelly, four, and Arthur, one, and Sam to Paul, three, and one-year-old Rosie – but Billie, 29, is currently finalising the plans for her wedding to Greg Shepherd. And when we catch up with the girls for a chat, although they admit it’s been a ‘dream’ come true landing their own show, it sounds like they could do with some time off. Here, as the sisters launch the fifth series of Mummy Diaries, they fill us in on Billie’s big day in the Maldives and whether Sam, 28, and…

Hi guys! This week I want to talk to you about Coleen and Wayne Rooney. Einstein once said that insanity is doing the same thing over again and expecting different results. This is exactly what Coleen is doing each and every time she for gives Wayne for his various misdemeanours. Without ramifications, Wayne is never going to learn any lessons and will continue to make mistakes knowing that the repercussions won’t be serious. I would highly advise seeking couples’ therapy. If they want to make their marriage work and set a gr eat example to their children, then something needs to change. A couples’ coach may help them to see what that is and help them to achieve a healthier and happier dynamic. Dear Annabelle, I caught my boyfriend masturbating…

Actress Gemma Atkinson, 34, shares her pre-pregnancy health secrets Hi, Gemma! Before revealing your pregnancy, what was your favourite way to keep active? I love a HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) workout as it’s fast, a great fat burner and doesn’t take up much of my time – good when you’ve a busy schedule. How do you motivate yourself? I just make sure I keeping telling myself the benefits afterwards and I know I’ll feel good. I’ll sleep better and have improved focus throughout the day. Before your pregnancy, was there a body part you struggled with? My legs are my fat receptors – so if I go on holiday and don’t exercise as much, I can feel it. I’m all right with that though, and just accept that they…
