Inhoudsopgave van 20 June 2017 - Closer

The devastating fire that tore through a London tower block last week was beyond shocking. As flames engulfed Grenfell Tower at terrifying speed, desperate mothers threw their babies from windows while stricken families perished waiting for help that would never reach them in time. Horror was coupled with outrage as it soon emerged that residents had warned of the dangers of the building, accurately predicting that it was “a disaster waiting to happen.” But alongside the fear and despair, there was something else too – bravery, courage, selflessness and a sense of community, which swung into action to help those whose lives have been torn apart. Our report on page 14 reminds us that the very worst of circumstances can bring out the very best in people.…

Zara Holland, 21, caused shock waves when she had sex with Alex Bowen last year after knowing him for less than 24 hours, and was stripped of her Miss Great Britain title for failing to be “a positive role model.” She previously told Closer : “I was in the moment. I’d had a few glasses of Champagne, but I’m not blaming it on that. I made the biggest mistake of my life. My mum told me not to sleep with anyone so I let her down, which upset me. But I didn’t commit a crime or do anything to hurt anyone. I wouldn’t do it if I had my time again, though.” Speaking last year – soon after the event – she said: “Earlier on that day we…

❛KNOWING THEY WAITED FOR HELP THAT DIDN’T COME IS THE MOST DISTURBING THING❜ The charred shell of Grenfell Tower looms on the west London skyline – the 24-storey building used to be home to around 600 people. Now the blackened ruin is a stark reminder of the worst residential disaster in the UK for 30 years. The blaze started just before 1am last Wednesday and was believed to have been caused by a faulty fridge in a fourth floor flat. Horrifically, it took just 30 minutes for the whole building to be engulfed by flames. DOZENS MISSING Terrified residents were told to “stay put” and wait to be rescued according to fire action plan signs, but as the inferno raged, witnesses described traumatic scenes, with desperate parents throwing children out…

They looked the picture of happiness as they cosied up in Italy last week, with insiders saying they’re already planning their second baby. But sources claim Sam Faiers and partner Paul Knightley’s getaway was also a chance to reconnect after they’ve endured months of tension. The couple got together in October 2014 and welcomed their first child – son Paul Tony – in December 2015. But their romance came under scrutiny when they allowed cameras to document Sam’s pregnancy for reality show The Baby Diaries, with viewers labelling Paul, 27, a “controlling man-child.” Sam, 26, also raised eyebrows late last year when she admitted that she and Paul shared a bed with their baby son. Asked how this affected their sex life, she cringed and replied: “I don’t know how…

Binky Felstead had a baby daughter last week, with boyfriend Josh “JP” Patterson confirming the news with an Instagram snap of the newborn’s hand and the caption: “I’m a daddy.” The arrival comes three months after they revealed their romance was back on track. The former Made In x Chelsea stars have had a rocky romance since getting together two years ago. Binky previously said they’d broken up when she found out she was expecting in January, describing the moment she did the pregnancy test by saying: “My first reaction… It was ‘s** t.’ My heart stopped.” She’s since quit MIC , and the pair, both 27, will star in a show following their journey to become parents. Speaking about their rekindled romance, JP said: “People thought that if we…

Kerry Miles has always loved Barbie, and has so far spent a staggering £100k in a bid to look like her idol. She’s had surgery to boost her chest to a 30H-cup, countless Botox injections and teeth whitening procedures, as well as lip and cheek fillers. And she wants to make herself look as plastic as possible. Kerry, 33, who takes two hours to get ready every day – even if she’s just going to walk the dog – says: “My husband hates my look but he accepts it and I’ve told him I’d divorce him if he tried to change me. “My daughter can’t stand Barbie and my mum says I’ve ruined my face, but I don’t want to look normal. I hate the way I used to look…

THE CURSE OF THE BOOZY BRIDES Former S Club Juniors star Stacey McClean’s wedding ended in isaster last week when she drunkenly hurled cake at her ootballer husband, Fraser Franks. The singer, 28, reportedly “drank erself into oblivion” after the eremony, heckled during the peeches, and even told her 100 guests: “I hate you all.” Stacey and Fraser, 26, a defender for Stevenage Football Club, missed their first dance and Stacey went off to bed early – sleeping in a different hotel. However, the bride was full of regret the next day as she posted on Facebook: “I’m sorry to all the people I didn’t get to see because I drank on an empty stomach and was an absolute mess.” And Stacey isn’t alone. A recent survey found 15 per…

LAUREN GOODGER... “Lauren looks incredible. She’s put in the hard work and I’m so proud of her. TOWIE needs her back full time with old favourites Lucy Mecklenburgh and Sam Faiers. They could have a huge squabble!” LEAVING TOWIE... “I’m taking a break but I’d never say never to a return. We will see how things go. I just want to focus now on other things. If I had more friends on the show and more time I would never rule out going back.” PSORIASIS... “I still suffer from it. I’ve got a bit on my cheek at the moment. I have really dry skin. Sometimes it flares up and doctors say it is stress related. Sometimes it’s your body’s way of telling you to slow down.”…

 Posing for a selfie with their baby-faced smiles, Kim Edwards and Lucas Markham look like ordinary teenage sweethearts. But these are Britain’s youngest double murderers, who shocked the nation when they were jailed in November for brutally stabbing a church-going dinner lady and her 13-year-old daughter. ❛THEY TOLD EACH OTHER THAT THEIR WARPED VIEW OF THE WORLD WAS CORRECT❜ Due to reporting restrictions at the time, their identities have only just been revealed. In a sickening twist, we now know that their victims were Kim’s mother Elizabeth and her little sister, Katie. Edwards, 14 watched as Markham, also 14, stabbed and smothered Elizabeth, 49, with a pillow. He then took off his shoes, crept into Katie’s room and stabbed her in the neck with an eight-inch knife while she slept…

 She’s as famous for her high-profile relationships as she is her chart-topping musical hits, and now Sheryl Crow tells Closer how, at 55, she’s not giving up on love. ‘I’d love to look like I’m 25 forever’ The multi-platinum music icon briefly dated Eric Clapton in 1998, actor Owen Wilson for three years after meeting him in 2000 then, following three years together, she broke off her engagement to disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong. He had proposed in 2006, but they split a year later, allegedly because he didn’t want to have children. Nashville-based Sheryl then took matters in to her own hands, adopting her son Wyatt, now 10, and his brother Levi, now seven, as babies. And while the single mum couldn’t be happier as she is, marriage is still something…

Even the most loyal lipstick lover can struggle with darker shades, especially during the summer when hot pinks and coral hues usually take centre stage. The gothic look was a big hit on the designer runways, though, and with a whole host of creamy, wearable formulas landing on the shelves, we find out whether bold berries could be our new sunny weather look… WE TRY IT OUT! LIFESTYLE EDITOR ANNABELLE LEE’S VERDICT: “A tinted balm is as adventurous as I get, so the thought of gothic lipstick worried me – with my dark hair and pale skin, I thought I’d look like one of The Addams Family. I wasn’t sure about the look, but I did get some compliments, so I feel more confident about trying different shades.” ACTING STYLE…

Gwyneth Paltrow’s health and wellness site, Goop, just held a “summit” in LA. Tickets sold for up to £1,185 each and people were told, among other things, that taking ibuprofen is like swallowing a “hand grenade.” That’s untrue. If it were that toxic we’d be dead! Goop is obsessed with “cleansing” and seems to suggest the world is full of toxins, yet it never defines what a toxin is. The “experts” quoted often have letters after their names, which misleads you into thinking they’re doctors. Recently, the Goop website hosted an article claiming bras could cause breast cancer, but there isn’t a shred of evidence to support that. It’s insulting to cancer sufferers and doctors. Plus the post was written by an osteopath, whose work is about musculoskeletal manipulation; she…

MUST READ The Lying Game (RUTH WARE) Isa had three best friends at boarding school. Their friendship was so close it excluded everybody else, and they used to get together to play the “lying game” – who could tell the most outrageous lie and be believed? But one day the lies become deadly serious. Years later, Isa receives a three-word text: “I need you,” and all four of the friends return to the fictitious town of Salten, where the lies unravel.

❛SHE’S TRYING TO STAY STRONG BUT VISITING JOEY IN PRISON IS HEARTBREAKING❜ They’ve been dating for just over a year, and now insiders say although Lauren Goodger’s love for boyfriend Joey Morrison is stronger than ever, she’s struggling to cope while his prison sentence separates them. Pals say Lauren, 30, sometimes feels torn apart because she’s finding it particularly tough not being able to have a physical relationship with Joey, who is currently serving a 16-year sentence for drug-related offences and is due to be released next March. CHATTED UP A source says: “Lauren admitted she’s finding it increasingly difficult waiting around for Joey to be released. She’s saving herself for him and has made it clear she doesn’t want anyone else – but it’s difficult because her lifestyle has…

❛JORDAN FEELS LIKE SHE AND KIERAN ARE WORLDS APART – THERE’S LITTLE TRUST❜ Countless failures to make it as a pop star haven’t deterred Jordan from releasing her new single, I Got U, this week. But, ahead of her big moment, Jordan’s ex-husband, Peter Andre, mocked their 2006 duet album A Whole New World, agreeing with a comment Liam Payne made when he dubbed it “cheesy.” Now pals say Jordan – real name Katie Price – is still craving the fame and success she enjoyed while she and Pete were a top celebrity couple, and releasing new music is her way of holding on to that time. A source says: “Katie is convinced she has the talent to be a pop sensation. She puts her previous failures down to bad…

❛THERE IS A GOOD, STRONG COMMUNITY SPIRIT❜ In the aftermath of the blaze, firefighters, medics and good Samaritans were applauded for their incredible efforts. London Fire Brigade Commissioner Dany Cotton publicly thanked her firefighters for their bravery in the face of grave danger, adding that it was the worst fire she’d seen in her 30 years of service. She said: “Even though the building was alight from top to bottom, and they were in fear of their own lives, they were in and out of that building, committing time after time to rescuing those people who we knew were in there.” In a moving speech, she confirmed her crew had suffered burns, smoke inhalation and heat exhaustion. MOVED TO TEARS While their heroic efforts saved lives, many of the rescue…

She’s the baby of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, but last week 19-year-old Kylie Jenner officially became the youngest person to make it on to the Forbes 100 rich list – something sources say has left her stepsister Kim Kardashian worried. Kylie ranked at number 59 on the prestigious celebrity rich list, thanks to the whopping £32million she raked in from her cosmetics line and endorsements last year. The delighted star, who has been a fixture on reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians, last week Tweeted, “wow woke up the youngest entry on the Forbes 100 list…’ Closer has reported how 36-year-old Kim, who ranked above her little sister at number 47 with earnings of £35.5 million, is already paranoid her star is starting to fade, and is worried her siblings…

She looked confident in a bikini last week after losing a huge 3st over the past year, and pals say Kerry Katona is juicing to maintain her slimline figure. In October, Kerry, 36, confessed to having a “s**t load” of liposuction – having 4 /2 litres of fat removed – and a mini tummy tuck. She previously had lipo and a breast reduction in 2008, then had a tummy tuck in 2012. A source says: “Kerry now weighs around 8st and has been telling friends some of her size 8 clothes are too big for her. “She says the secret to staying slim is juicing. She’s been doing lots of fruit and vegetable juices and says they’ve been stopping her from bingeing on junk.” The mum-of-five – who married ex-con…

There were hints of trouble last week, when photos surfaced of Frank Lampard storming out of the Glamour Awards in London without Christine Bleakley – as Holly Willoughby’s husband Dan Baldwin tried to pull him back. But while the candid photos appeared to suggest an argument between the pair, Christine has told friends that her marriage is stronger than ever. A source reveals: “Christine and Frank laughed off suggestions that there was a problem that night – it really wasn’t a big deal.” Just days later, Christine, 38, showed off her incredible bikini body as she and Frank, who turns 39 this week, soaked up the sunshine in the south of France with friends. GOING STRONG A source reveals: “Christine and Frank were clearly loved-up on their holiday. They could…

FAMILY MATTERS DEALING WITH YOUR SQUABBLING CHILDREN If your home feels like a war zone thanks to constant arguments, taking a step back could be the best solution The term “sibling rivalry” exists because, like it or not, some brothers and sisters just don’t get on. When my boys Tyde and Evan were little, they were the best of friends. Fast forward a few years and there are days where they can’t stop arguing. When this first started happening, I took it personally, feeling that my family was starting to fail. I also worried about their future relationship. Then I had an epiphany; I figured that the best way to deal with their feelings towards each another was to let them process them. Instead of intervening every time I heard…

What’s the best thing about this show? It really does change people’s lives; that’s not an idle boast. Some of the people we meet have been through a lot.

Kady McDermott, 21, had sex regularly throughout last year’s series with boyfriend Scott Thomas, who she’s still in a relationship with. She says: “Before I went on Love Island I said to myself there was no way in hell I’d have sex on TV. I was adamant. But being in the house, six weeks felt like six years, and I fell in love. Scott and I were really serious about each other and I felt like I was in a secure relationship that naturally progressed; it was an organic thing that happened. “I’d never have a one-night stand or have sex for the shock factor. I’m sure some girls would go on Love Island to do that but, for me and the other couples who fell in love, sex on…

She looked the picture of happiness as she cradled her baby bump on a beach in Mallorca last week. And it was a welcome break for Chanelle Hayes, as she finally starts to enjoy her pregnancy after “awful” sickness, which left her bed-bound and vomiting up to 40 times a day. The star, who’s six months pregnant, said she felt like “a prisoner in my own home” after she was diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum – a severe nausea and vomiting condition which is more likely to occur in overweight women. She was even hospitalised for dehydration as her weight plummeted by 2st. She had a diabetes test – the condition is also linked to being overweight – and this could put her baby at risk of a range of health…

❛ MICHELLE HAS ASKED HIM TO TRY NOT TO ENGAGE WITH GIRLS WHO APPROACH HIM ❜ He returned to the UK last week after living it up in LA with his sister Jess and their UK producer pal Jamie Shepherd – partying in Hollywood and cosying up to Mariah Carey in a bid to boost his profile and forge a career as a US showbiz reporter.

Following her infamous transition in 2015, Caitlyn Jenner has gradually grown apart from the Kardashians, including her daughters Kendall and Kylie. And in May, Caitlyn, 67, revealed she no longer speaks to Kim either. But after Caitlyn met former Britain’s Next Top Model contestant Talulah-Eve Brown – who made history this year when she became the first transgender model to enter the competition – at the LGTB Awards in London last month, the model reveals she’d love to become a surrogate daughter. Talulah says: “I’ll be a daughter figure to Caitlyn! I’d love to be seen as a Kim Kardashian sort of star. She’s amazing. I feel for Caitlyn that she’s had such a hard time with her family when transitioning. The Kardashians are very powerful women and it must…

After a turbulent few months that saw her fall pregnant then subsequently split from boyfriend Arthur Collins after his dramatic arrest over a London nightclub acid attack in April, Ferne McCann has opened up about her heartache, revealing she doesn’t want to think about dating “for a long time.” But as the four-months-pregnant star prepares for life as a single mum, pals say that, while putting on a brave front, she’s desperate to find the love of her life. A source says: “Ferne dreams of settling down, so when she meets someone she throws herself into the relationship – spending all her time with them and planning their futures. She wants to find the love of her life, but she gets hurt when she’s let down.” Ferne split from her…

They’ve been married for nine years, but lovebirds Wayne and Coleen Rooney proved the spark is still there as they kissed and cuddled on a sun lounger in a rare show of affection on holiday last week. The loved-up display comes after reports that their relationship was under strain following claims that Wayne, 31, had blown £500k on a boozy late-night bender in a casino in Manchester last month. The pair – who have three children, Kai, seven, Klay, four, and Kit, one – have also weathered two public scandals in the past. In 2004, Wayne was caught entering a brothel in Liverpool, and in 2010 it was claimed he’d cheated on Coleen with a prostitute while she was pregnant with Kai. Coleen, who sported an incredible figure on the…

She made a name for herself on TOWIE thanks to her turbulent teenage romance with James “Arg” Argent, after years of breaking up and making up with her first love, Lydia Bright insists there is no way back. The pair were about to buy a house together after 10 rocky years, but shocked viewers when Lydia told Arg she despised him in an explosive episode last summer. “For me and James it is very much over,” Lydia admits to Closer. “It has been since February last year. I had a big chunk of time away from TOWIE and a chance to find out who I really was. When I came back we made a go of things one last time.” TOWIE fans were gripped by the roller-coaster antics of the…

In June 2015, after months of neck and throat pain, I found a lump and doctors sent me for a biopsy. Two weeks later, they told me it was cancer. My life crumbled. I was numb; I was just 24 years old and it seemed so unfair. “I’d also just finally got over my ex. We’d been together for 18 months, but broke up the year before and I was starting to feel ready to date again. “But the cancer meant I had to give up work and undergo months of gruelling chemotherapy, radiotherapy and proton therapy. At first, I lost my hair and I went from a size 12 to a 16 because of the steroids. Then the treatment left horrible burns around my neck and I couldn’t even…

When the sun is shining, it’s only natural to want to get outside as much as possible – especially as we live in the UK, where it’s mostly grey and rainy! But as the temperature rises, it’s essential to take extra care and keep your skin protected. We all know sunburn doesn’t look or feel particularly nice, so don’t get caught out this summer. Here’s how to stay sun-safe… GET SPF SMART There’s no need to hole up all summer. As long as you choose a sunscreen with adequate protection, you can keep enjoying the great outdoors. Those with fair skin should choose SPF 50, while medium skin tones should go no lower than SPF 30, and dark tones should opt for a minimum SPF 15. Be sure to re-apply…
