Inhoudsopgave van Issue 910 - Closer

This week, we report on the couples whose marriages were rescued by being together 24/7, we’ve looked at celebs whose blended families have thrived, and we feature Hollywood stars whose relationships have gone the distance to find out their secrets.

We’ve found clever storage solutions for every room and discovered brilliant reusable beauty buys that are kind to you and the planet. And on page 39, we present you with a lovely…

❛THIS COULD BE HER CHANCE FOR A BIG COMEBACK AND GIVE HER A CONFIDENCE BOOST❜ After it was revealed that Bruno Tonioli may miss out on the new series of Strictly Come Dancing if he remains stuck in LA due to travel restrictions around coronavirus, Cheryl was last week tipped as the bookies’ favourite to replace him as judge. And pals say the mum of one, who turns 37 this week, has been leaning on her “amazing” ex, Derek Hough – who was a professional dancer on the US version of the show, Dancing With The Stars, for almost a decade – for advice. Insiders say she’s particularly torn after her experience on BBC talent show The Greatest Dancer, which was launched in 2018 and axed earlier this year. After…

She signed up to X-rated website OnlyFans – where users pay to view explicit photos and videos – just a month ago, but Kerry Katona’s new career is going from strength to strength. So much so, the mum of five has now joined a similar internet adult site, called Admire Me, to boost her earnings. But as Kerry, 39, relishes her new-found success, writing online, “I’m loving doing @onlyfansofficial I feel so empowered and confident,” her fans have expressed concern. “You don’t need to make money from this sort of thing,” wrote one last week, while another said, “Kerry, come on, you are SOOO much better than this.” SUCCESS A source says, “Kerry has shrugged off the criticism. She’s loving the confidence this gives her and, of course, the money…

OPRAH WINFREY & STEDMAN GRAHAM: ‘He had to create his own identity’ Oprah Winfrey recently lifted the lid on her decades-long ‘spiritual partnership’ with Stedman Graham, 69, insisting that their relationship wouldn’t have lasted 34 years if they had got married. The couple first met in 1986 and got engaged in 1993, but broke off their engagement, opting for a “spiritual union” instead. Recently writing in her column for O, The Oprah Magazine, Oprah, 66, reflected on her unwavering relationship with the businessman, saying, “In 1993, the moment after I said yes to his proposal, I had doubts. I realised I didn’t want a marriage; I wanted to be asked. I wanted to know he felt I was worthy of being his missus, but I didn’t want the sacrifices, the…

Emma Kenny says, “If you’ve been getting on great with your partner, or even if things have been strained, sit down now, and work out exactly what you can do to make things easier for you both going forward – whether it be sharing the housework or watching TV together – and then make a conscious effort to do it. “Keep communicating, too. Lockdown has meant fewer distractions and given couples time to talk. Consider streamlining your lives and not packing them full – cut down on all the activities and just be together more often.”…

The coronavirus and Emmerdale filming schedule may have delayed Lisa’s wedding plans – but she jokes she may have a Zoom wedding. “My filming schedule runs until September, so, pre-lockdown, I knew there was never going to be a wedding before that. Al will be 50 in November and hopefully we will be away for his birthday, although if we do have another lockdown, [the service] will probably have to be in the spare bedroom with a few balloons. “We might have a Zoom wedding online! Can you imagine Al in his joggers and me in my full Sweaty Betty? Nobody would be offended if we did that and there would be no leaking of photographs! “But this pandemic has made me live for the moment and taught me not…

At just eight years old, Blaize Tingle gets up at 5.30 every morning, raring to get going on his weight training. Under the expert eye of his personal trainer mum, 40 year old Jayne, he spends an hour lifting weights of up to a staggering 60kg (almost 9.5st) – double his body weight – before most people have even woken up. The rest of his day is then packed with a further two hours of bodybuilding activities. Before lockdown he would train for up to three hours a day, after school and at weekends. But now he’s doing even more. As well as his morning weight training, he’ll complete five hours of schoolwork and then go for a seven-mile run with his older brother Kail, 17, then move on to…

❛LIVING WITH SO MANY DOGS IN SUCH A SMALL SPACE HASN’T ALWAYS BEEN EASY❜ When Sarah Allan got stranded in Spain during the COVID-19 pandemic, she ended up taking in a pregnant stray dog – who gave birth to a litter of puppies in the back of her mobile home. Now, dog lovers Sarah, 45, and husband Darren share their small home with Lady and her eight puppies. Sarah says, “The puppies run wild in our tiny van! It’s chaos, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.” In May 2019, Sarah and Darren gave up their jobs in Newmarket as it was always their dream to travel around Spain. After ten months there, the pair were thinking about heading home – but then, the pandemic hit. SHOCKED Sarah explains,…

The fact that so many children are likely to develop adult Type 2 diabetes due to bad diet and lack of exercise is tragic, as it’s a difficult condition – largely caused by obesity – which involves lifelong changes. You have to carefully watch what you eat, you may need to give yourself daily injections, and, if you don’t manage it well, the consequences can be fatal. Yet according to researchers who took blood samples from over 4,000 young people, inactive children as young as eight have tell-tale signs showing they’ll develop Type 2 diabetes later in life. It’s concerning we’re seeing teens with the disease as they’re already going through all sorts of adjustments, which can mean they don’t cope well with it. Happily, it’s preventable, so here’s how…

SAM How much do you spend per week? Around £80 for my husband Tom [Mairs] and me. I make lists and plan meals. I go to the supermarket, but I’m a big fan of Costco, too – it’s great for buying loads of tomatoes! Describe your daily diet... I eat around 11am. I love toast, or fruit and fibre cereal with soya milk, with a black coffee. If I’m busy, I’ll have an M&S microwave meal or a salmon taco for lunch. I usually focus on dinner. It tends to be quick, one-pot meals – Chinese, paella, or sausage casserole. What do you snack on? Usually fruit or toast. I try to make it healthy, as I could eat salt and vinegar crisps all day. Do you have any strange…

KITCHEN Where space is tight in a kitchen, it’s important not to waste an inch of potential storage – but that doesn’t mean hiding everything away. Transfer your dry food supplies, like cereal and pasta, into glass jars. Not only will it look smart and keep your ingredients fresh, it’s a great way to minimise your packaging consumption as you can re-fill them at zero-waste supermarkets. Too many utensils? Installing under-shelf baskets or adding racks on cupboard doors is ideal for freeing up drawers. BATHROOM Small bathrooms make it difficult to store all of your toiletries, but with a little creative planning you can find a way to make the area work. If it’s lacking floor space, instead of cramming products near the sink or dotted around the bath, create…

1 THE SECRETS SHE KEEPS OUR LATEST OBSESSION MON 6/TUE 7 JULY, 9PM, BBC1 This dark, Australia-set thriller has “bingeworthy” written all over it. It stars Laura Carmichael (aka Downton Abbey’s Lady Edith) as Agatha, a young woman with a troubled past who proudly cradles her pregnancy bump and wants the world to know she is about to pop. She appears to be more than a little obsessed with the beautiful Meghan, who lives nearby in Sydney – and is also due to give birth at the same time. Agatha is clearly hiding something, while there seems to be something going on that could disrupt Meghan’s perfect life as well. There are six gripping episodes, and each one is full of horrors... FACTFILE  This is inspired by a true story…

MUST READ Coming Undone: A Memoir (TERRI WHITE) Terri White appeared to be living the dream, named one of Folio’s Top Women in US Media and accruing awards for the magazines she was editing. In reality, she was rapidly skidding towards a mental health crisis that would land her in a locked psychiatric ward as her past caught up with her. Coming Undone is Terri’s documentation of her unravelling, and her navigation back from the brink. A powerful and raw read.…

Coleen visits an inflatable pub. She had a gas, but sadly the end of the evening was a real let down and she left feeling quite deflated. Gregg’s so confident about his chances of winning Spectacle Wearer of the Year that he’s already toasting his win! After losing squillions of pounds in cancelled TV gigs during lockdown, Ant and Dec have no choice but to sign up for panto this year. Some people look like their pets. But Jesy has slippers that are identical to her pooches. TOO WEIRD! Jamie’s furious neighbours had to call the police after he kept making a huge racket on his balcony. GEORGIA MAY FOOTE Oh, we love the pasta, Georgia! We just don’t love what it does to our middle area… AMY HART Well,…

She’s never far from drama, and last week Coleen Rooney was weathering a further storm after the “WAGatha Christie” scandal took another turn. Her nemesis, Rebekah Vardy, has launched a £1 million libel claim against her in what could end up as one of the most explosive court showdowns in showbiz history. Following an unsuccessful attempt to resolve their bitter feud behind closed doors, the warring WAGs are now set to face each other in London’s High Court. Rebekah, 38, has launched the lawsuit in a bid to clear her name after Coleen, 33, accused her Instagram account of leaking stories about her to the press – something Rebekah vehemently denies. And while Coleen’s lawyers said she was “disappointed” with Rebekah’s decision to issue court proceedings – adding she feels…

Strictly judge Bruno Tonioli gave Cheryl his blessing should she replace him, saying, “If she does end up doing it, there would be nothing wrong with that. She’s a lovely girl. I like her. Of course she’s not me, but we’re all different. We all have different things to offer.’ But ex-Strictly pro dancer Natalie Lowe, 39 – who danced with the likes of chef Ainsley Harriott and actor Ricky Whittle – says, “A Strictly judge can’t be just anyone. You need someone compassionate, who can give constructive criticism, and someone who thoroughly understands the genre. “Cheryl is amazing, and she’s been great on The Greatest Dancer and The X Factor. She’s an incredible dancer, too. But ballroom dancing is so niche – it’s so technical. I think someone with…

❛SHE WANTS HIM TO FOCUS ON HER AND THEIR PLANS FOR THE FUTURE❜ She recently vowed she’d be pregnant by next year and would fly the flag for new mums in their forties, after her on/off boyfriend revealed that he’s ready for “marriage and babies” following his latest stint in rehab. But insiders say Gemma Collins, 39, is struggling to watch James ‘Arg’ Argent, 32, play ‘happy families’ with his close friend and her former pal, Ferne McCann, and her two-year-old daughter Sunday, whose dad Arthur Collins was jailed, just weeks after she was born, for a nightclub acid attack. Gemma and Arg have only recently been reunited, after his long-term stint in rehab in Thailand as well as lockdown. But although they are both keen to start a family,…

❛I FEEL LIKE WE’VE COME A LONG WAY DURING THE PAST FEW MONTHS AND WE’RE GOING TO STAY TOGETHER❜ At the start of this year, Dennie Smith was looking for two different homes – one for her and one for her husband of 35 years, Graham, 57. The pair had grown apart and they were considering getting a divorce. Then the pandemic hit, and lockdown halted their plans to move. Dennie, 58, says, “Our marriage had been dead for the last seven years. It had got to the stage where just hearing him drink a cup of tea would set my teeth on edge. I couldn’t see a way back. I felt unsupported and unloved, we did nothing together – we even ate separately.” Dennie, who lives in Caterham, Surrey…

They endured a turbulent relationship, but Liz Hurley broke her silence last week on the sudden death of her ex-partner and father to her son, describing herself as “saddened beyond belief”. ❛LOSING A PARENT IS SO HARD, AND FOR IT TO HAPPEN IN THIS WAY IS DEVASTATING❜ The tragic news that Hollywood producer Steve Bing, 55, had died after falling from the 27th floor of his apartment block in LA in a suspected suicide made headlines around the world. Elizabeth, 55, and multimillionaire filmmaker Steve, dated for 18 months in 2000, but broke up when she became pregnant and he denied he was Damian’s dad. Alongside posting previously unseen photos of the pair, Liz wrote an emotional tribute, poignantly revealing they’d last spoken on their son’s 18th birthday in April,…

❛I’M A BIT GROGGY IN THE AFTERNOON IF I DON’T GET EIGHT HOURS’ SLEEP❜ ‘I DON’T GO OUT NEARLY AS MUCH’ As a member of the infamous Primrose Hill set – a group of hard-partying celebs who lived in a small area of north London in the ’90s – Kate earned the nickname “The Tank” for her ability to drink her peers under the table. One unnamed friend said Kate would have “Champagne at 8am… wine and vodka with lunch.” Her bad habits landed her in rehab for five weeks in 1998, while her career was almost ruined when she was dubbed “Cocaine Kate” after photographs allegedly showed her taking the drug in 2005. In 2015, she was booted off an EasyJet flight after drunkenly calling the flight attendant a…

Dr Tim Ubhi, consultant paediatrician and founder of the children’s e-hospital (e-hospital.co.uk) says, “That intensity of exercise is excessive for an eight-year-old. It’s a lot for a growing body. “Children go through growth spurts and it’s important that soft tissue and bones grow at the same time. Intensive exercise can alter that development. “The key word is ‘balance’. Bodies are designed to grow at a normal rate for each individual, and if you intervene with high-intensity training, you can shift the balance of development. “Fighting obesity with exercise and a good diet is excellent, but he needs to pull back a bit from what he’s doing as there is a potential impact on longterm growth.”…

I haven’t tried video dating, but I have a load of friends who have been getting to know people over the phone, especially during the early days of isolation. They’ve had long phone conversations or Zoom dinner dates, chatting about their days and learning about each other. I think it’s great! With dating, it’s so easy to go on dates, get a bit drunk and end up in bed together. But with video calls and speaking over the phone, it builds a stronger base – you’re really getting to know someone. You’re not hiding behind a mask of alcohol or going off a physical connection. It’s brought dating back to basics. I hope it continues after lockdown and people think about building a proper connection before just jumping between the…

‘I don’t think I look bad for an old bird!’ She’s never shied away from discussing the severe depression that has plagued her life for the past 30 years, and Denise Welch says people have told her that her honesty about her mental health has saved others’ lives. The Loose Women star still receives praise after sharing a candid live video of herself suffering a depressive episode last September. The 62 year old tells Closer, “I’ve had so many letters from people saying, ‘You’ve saved my life’, or ‘You’ve saved my wife’s life’ by talking about my mental health. When I first got depression after my son [The 1975 frontman Matt Healy, who she shares with ex-husband Tim Healy] was born in 1989, I would have given anything for a…

Be careful, as fraudsters are taking advantage of the Track and Trace system to try to trick people out of their money. Scammers are allegedly calling people and getting them to reveal their bank details to pay for fake test kits for COVID-19. Here’s what you need to know and share with family members who may be susceptible… The government’s contact-tracing scheme tells anyone who has been in contact with a COVID-19 patient to self-isolate for 14 days. Contact tracers call anyone who tests positive and asks them lots of questions. These interviews are lengthy as they want to get a detailed timescale of what you’ve done every day – including who you’ve worked with, who you live with, who’s visited you, where you’ve been, as well as describing your…

It’ll gently lift oil-based products and even tricky mascara to leave you fresh-faced, with minimal effort. MAGNITONE WIPE OUT £15 FOR PACK OF 2 MASKED HERO Disposable sheet masks are brilliant for a hydrating complexion boost, but after just 15 minutes, they get thrown away – and most can’t be recycled.

It locks in moisture and helps your product to absorb – and can then be…

CLEVER CORK: A pretty and practical way to add personality to an office space is by mounting a pegboard on to a wall, giving you somewhere to pin important work papers, to-do lists and your favourite photos.

This will help them blend in seamlessly into the décor. FABULOUS FINISH: A desk with a white, glossy finish will reflect light and give the illusion of a bigger space. Dark colours and heavier styles will feel more imposing and will be harder to ignore when not in use.…

How much fun did you have doing this? COLEEN, 55: The last family holiday I went on was 20 years ago, when there was something like 27 of us in Florida. After that, I swore never again, because it was just chaos for me. I had trepidations about being together 24/7. I thought we might get off the ship and not be talking, but it’s been one of the best things we ever did – and it’s actually brought us closer together than we’ve ever been. It was so much fun, every part of it. MAUREEN, 66: We honestly just had the most amazing time – and the ship was beautiful. And currently you’re all single – at the same time? COLEEN: Well, we’re the Nolan sisters – we do…

After their bitter split in 2009, Jordan and Pete didn’t talk for the next decade, instead liaising through mediators to discuss and hand over their children, Junior and Princess. But it seems the pair have turned a corner, with Jordan – real name Katie Price – posting a heartfelt tribute to him on Father’s Day, which included a montage of 21 pictures of them together as a family, and writing alongside, “We have amazing children and credit to you for being such a great dad.” Pete, 47 – who is now married to doctor Emily MacDonagh, 30, with whom he shares Amelia, six, and Theo, three – has also been commenting on his ex’s Instagram posts of late, and when asked by a fan if they were on good terms,…

HOW THE FRIENDS GIRLS HAVE MAINTAINED THEIR BOND Fans were left delighted when it was revealed last week that bosses are planning to film the much-anticipated reunion show for Friends– one of the most popular TV series of all time – in August, after it was originally postponed due to the pandemic. And a video interview with Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow – who played Rachel and Phoebe respectively – in which the girls laughed and joked just like their on-screen characters did more than 20 years ago, went down a storm too. Jennifer, 51, Lisa, 56, and their other female co-star Courteney Cox, 56, have remained close since the show ended in 2004 – they’re often pictured catching up over lunch, on holiday together and at each other’s weddings,…

While a lot of couples are navigating spending more time with their partners than usual, lockdown has also seen a surge in “turbo relationships” where couples have moved at a much faster pace than they would have done otherwise. Lucca Joy, 28, moved to Glasgow from London to be with her new partner Martin, 29. Lucca, who runs an event and touring company, says, “I met Martin in a nightclub while I was visiting a friend in Glasgow three weeks before lockdown. “We were obsessed with each other and I ended up staying on for an extra week as we were having such a great time. Two weeks later, we made the decision that I’d move in with him – we didn’t want to be apart for months. “It’s been…

She’s previously spoken about her incredible 12-stone weight loss and how she has never felt better. Now, Emmerdale actress Lisa Riley says she is dedicated to helping fans who have been emotional eating to cope with the stress and boredom of lockdown. The 43-year-old star – who was a size 28, before dropping to a healthy size 12 – reveals how she has been inundated with messages asking for her diet tips and advice from people desperate to slim down. “A lot of people are finding they have eaten more in lockdown and I keep getting fans asking how I keep the weight off,” says Lisa, who credits daily yoga sessions, HIIT [high intensity interval training], regular three-mile walks and limiting portion sizes to helping her lose the pounds. STRESS…

She’s been proudly showing off her toned bikini body on Instagram, after dropping from a size 16 to a size 8 in recent years. And now Davinia Taylor, 42 – another key player in the notorious Primrose Hill set – reveals her incredible weight loss, which she has maintained for five years, is down to “biohacking”, which means experimenting with changes to diet and lifestyle to suit one’s health and wellbeing. Like Kate, the former Hollyoaks actress and heiress to a toilet paper empire, ditched booze. But she recently revealed to fans she swears by a lower sugar and paleo diet, while running, saunas and intermittent fasting have also improved her wellbeing. She also credits cold showers for her transformation, which help to balance her hormones. Revealing how her previous…

REBECCA & HARRY ‘Work on yourselves first – then your kids benefit’ They announced they were divorcing in 2016, less than a year after welcoming daughter Summer – so Rebecca Adlington and Harry Needs raised eyebrows when it was revealed they were spending lockdown together with her new boyfriend, Andrew Parsons, and Harry’s friend, Michael Gunning. Recent reports suggested the sports star had invited her ex to stay with her so he could spend more time with Summer, five, with Harry sharing a photo of himself with Rebecca, Andrew, fellow swimmer Michael, and Summer, captioning it, “Couldn’t wish to be stuck with a better bunch of people.” And while a spokesperson for Rebecca, 31, was keen to point out it isn’t a permanent set-up, the Olympic champion recently admitted she…

‘I’m quite good at being Embarrassing Dad’ MEETING ABBEY FOR THE FIRST TIME “We met [at a bar] and got on fantastically well. I thought she was out of my league, really. She gave me her number – amazingly – then she went away and I just carried on with my evening. I was talking to someone else, who was also female, when Abbey came back over and said, ‘Look at you! Who do you think you are?’ as if we were married already. She went mental. And I was like ‘I’m only talking’. I should have known then!” GETTING RIBBED BY PRINCE HARRY “I’ve met Prince William and Prince Harry a few times. I remember Harry said to me once – we were in the England changing room –…

FAMILY MATTERS HOW TO KEEP BORED KIDS ENTERTAINED With the school summer holidays looming, Emma suggests ways to keep younger children happy at home Many parents have risen to the challenge of homeschooling, and I suspect lots are dreading the thought of the summer holidays and having kids at home without schoolwork to occupy them – especially parents working from home. With children, boredom isn’t all bad – you can’t be creative without free time to come up with exciting ideas and games. The outdoors is your best friend, and even if you live in a high rise, you can benefit. Open a window, and ask them to listen to the sounds they can hear. Give them a list of noises to listen out for. If they hear them all…

How did this come about? MARTIN, 58: I’d worked with Rhys Thomas [the award-winning film-maker] a few years back, so knew his style of comedy. It came to me and Gary as a draft script from the BBC, and we all threw ideas at each other for about nine months before we had a version we were happy with. GARY, 60: We immediately trusted Rhys’ instincts for an idea – it seemed to suit that strange place Martin and I occupy of being actors as well as musicians. We also loved the idea of sticking a pin in the ego of our own celebrity. And it’s a comedy? MARTIN: The show is made to make you belly laugh. Not a sly grin or a puff of the cheeks, but proper…
