With World Book Day just around the corner, the stars are gearing up for another round of annual dress-up, and we can't wait to see what they have in store. Over the years, one celeb who's been at the forefront of the celebrations is Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden. The 55-year-old, plus her radio show co-hosts Jamie Theakston, also 55, and Ashley Roberts, 44, have become well-known for their elaborate costumes, and have previously dressed up as characters from Alice in Wonderland with Amanda going for an impressive Queen of Hearts ensemble. In other years, Amanda has also portrayed Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, wearing a babyblue chequered pinafore dress and ruby heels. In the same spirit, she also dressed up as The Witch from the iconic Narnia…

Eight years after their well-publicised divorce, Ant McPartlin and Lisa Armstrong have come face-to-face in a heartbreaking reunion. Hurley, the former couple's pet Labrador, sadly passed away earlier this month, with Ant, 50, and make-up artist Lisa, 48, rushing to be by their beloved dog's side at a London vet. After being told the 12-year-old Labrador was too ill to recover, Ant and Lisa made the devastating decision to have Hurley put down and were both there to witness his final moments. The reunion is believed to be the first time Ant and Lisa have seen each other in person since ending their 13-year marriage in 2018. The split saw the pair share custody of Hurley – who they adopted in 2013 – with the dog spending time at the…

Hydrate & protect If winter has left your skin feeling parched, it's time to meet ectoin. Discovered for its ability to bind with water to form a ‘hydration shield’, this wonder ingredient is brilliant at locking in moisture for a plumper, more youthful appearance. It can also boost your skin's barrier and even defend against environmental stressors, such as pollution. Ectoin can be combined with almost any other product but works best when left on the skin. Try The INKEY List Ectoin Hydro-Barrier Serum, £15 after cleansing, or combine Facetheory Ectoin BarrierBuild Milk, £22, with a vitamin C serum for brightening results. If your skin is extra thirsty, we recommend investing in Biossance Squalane and Ectoin Overnight Rescue, £52. Just a small amount of the ultra-rich cream helps to rescue…

• Try snake plant and kentia palm for air purification in the lounge. They pull pollutants like formaldehyde and benzene from the air and are great in spaces where people gather. • Allergies? Broad-leafed plants such as rubber plants and ZZ plants naturally catch dust. Wiping the leaves regularly helps maximise this effect. Areca palm and spider plant can help increase humidity and reduce airborne allergens. Pet-friendly varieties are best if animals share your room. • Snake plant and aloe vera are excellent choices for the bedroom as they release oxygen at night. Peace lily also improves air quality while bringing a calm, soft look. Lavender and jasmine are also recognised for their soothing scent, which may help reduce stress levels. • For bathrooms, ferns and ivy are effective moisture…

Stroking my bump, our four-year-old daughter Harriet was bursting with excitement at the idea of becoming a big sister. For weeks, she'd whispered softly to her soon-to-arrive sibling, and I knew she'd dote on him when he was born. In December 2022, at 41 weeks pregnant, I waddled into hospital. Harriet's own birth had been swift – four hours from start to finish – so I didn't think it would be long before our son arrived. And sure enough, three hours after my contractions began, our baby boy Harrison was born, weighing 8lb 9oz. I pressed him to my chest, smiling. But as I cradled him, he made a strange grunting noise. The midwife reassured me, telling me it was just a bit of mucus from a rapid birth, so…

ON THE SLOPES Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash have escaped the UK for a skiing getaway with their brood. The two stars looked as loved-up as ever as they posed for photos amid the mountains in Switzerland.

Just a few more,’ I said to myself as I opened up another big bag of chocolate buttons. They were my favourite nightly snack. Before I knew it, the bag was empty. Chocolate had always been my comfort, my escape, and my constant companion. For years it felt as though my entire day revolved around what I was going to eat, what I'd eaten and what I regretted eating. There was constant food noise in my head. At 56, I weighed 13st 13lb and wore a size 18 at just 5ft 2in. I was trapped in a body that no longer felt like mine. Instead of doing something about it though, I bought bigger clothes, telling myself they'd make me feel better. I'd tried to cut back on chocolate so…

Meanwhile, viewers…

She's only just joined the team at The Great British Bake Off, but Nigella Lawson has already made quite an impact on her costars – most notably Paul Hollywood. The two culinary experts will be the judges on the show's upcoming season, with Nigella, 66, replacing Prue Leith. She's already struck up a close bond with co-star Paul, 59, with the pair spending plenty of time together. ‘I'm looking forward to being part of the gang. Paul and I have been chatting non-stop,’ Nigella said. Paul was full of praise for Bake Off's new star. ‘Like Mary and Prue, Nigella has unbelievable taste buds and a huge depth of knowledge,’ he said, before adding, ‘I don't think you can teach Nigella anything when it comes to judging.’…

We've seen several familiar faces return to EastEnders in recent months, and now Grant Mitchell is on his way back to Walford. The BBC has revealed that Ross Kemp, 61, will be reprising his iconic role for a short stint in the coming months. Grant's return comes at a significant time for his family, as his brother Phil is caring for long-time pal Nigel Bates during his dementia battle.

No Ana Teubler, 48, standup paddleboard instructor ‘That would blur the boundaries’ I love my husband, James, to bits. But would I have him as a colleague? No thank you. That would blur the boundaries between our work life and our marriage, which would inevitably lead to conflict. James is a landlord and has a family-run estate. When we met 20 years ago, I was an accountant and he asked if I'd like to do his accounts and I said no, knowing it would be a nightmare. For starters, the way he keeps his receipts is infuriating and, if I was his accountant, it would drive me mad. As his wife, it's not my problem, so I don't have to criticise him. I like to help my husband – I'll…

A round 99% of us regain lost pounds because we're simply tackling weight management the wrong way. In his new book, Sugar Tolerance, health coach Steve Bennett reveals how to slim down and maintain it. He tells us, ‘Your entire bloodstream is only designed to tolerate 1tsp of sugar, yet many of us are regularly filling our bodies with a lot more! This makes the body pump out insulin, which can result in extra fat.’ To lose 1-2lb a week and maintain it, Steve says it's all about reducing sugar and lowering insulin resistance. And crucially, it's not about making sacrifices. ‘Diets fail because they tell you to give up certain foods, and our brains are not wired to do this,’ he explains. ‘Instead, work on reduction and eating in…

Health experts have known for a while that nature and wellbeing are interlinked. The benefits of spending time in the outdoors are well-documented, and research by think-tank The King's Fund found that every 10% increase in green space exposure was associated with health improvements equivalent to being five years younger. It's linked to higher levels of physical activity and reductions in several long-term conditions, such as heart disease, cancer, and musculoskeletal conditions. And it's not just the increased access to space for exercise that brings benefits. Intriguingly, studies have also revealed that simply being in close proximity to greenery indoors can benefit our health – including supporting post-surgery recovery. Research from Kansas State University showed that plants serve as a ‘non-invasive, inexpensive and effective complementary medicine’ for surgical patients. The…
