The royal wedding antics are done and dusted, and with Harry and Meghan’s big day now behind us, it’s lovely to have some happy news – or, nappy news, should I say? – within another famous family… the Lampards. Christine and Frank announced, via Instagram, that they’re expecting their first child together, writing, ‘The Lampard family are expanding! The list of emotions is endless.’ I really couldn’t be happier for this pair. Unless Meghan and Harry announce some exciting news of their own anytime soon, we’ll be keeping up to date on this new addition to football’s royalty. • Please let me know your thoughts, siobhan.wykes@hearst.co.uk…

‘During pregnancy, you’re in awe of what your body does – and when you come out the other end, you’re not left with what you went in with’ Bubbly TV presenter Alex Jones, 41 – who is married to insurance broker Charlie Thomson, 39 – had her first baby, a little boy called Ted, in January of last year, aged 39. Her book, Winging It!, is all about that crazy journey. Here, the bubbly Welsh native, who co-hosts The One Show alongside Matt Baker, speaks with admirable honesty about how tough, as well as magical, becoming a mum at almost 40 was - and how ill-prepared she was for the bone-crushingly exhausting task of looking after another (very cute) little human… Hi, Alex. What’s the biggest thing you’ve learned about yourself since…

With summer holidays looming, cellulite can be a real body hang-up for many of us. Here are the newest procedures developed to deal with the dreaded dimples. SNIP AWAY YOUR CELLULITE CelluTite is designed to address moderate to severe cellulite – a process of radio frequency-assisted lipolysis. A small probe is inserted under the skin, cutting and smoothing the fibrous tissues that create dimples. At the same time, radio frequency energy warms the skin, making it tighter and smoother. The one-off procedure is carried out under local anesthesia, and support garments are worn for four weeks. You’ll see immediate results, but best improvements follow six months afterwards, as new collagen is formed. The results are permanent with a healthy lifestyle. From £3,000. FIGHT LUMPS AND BUMPS For moderate cellulite, TiteFX…

‘Who’s been sleeping in myyyy bed? Well, not Mark, that’s for sure! Not most nights anyway because, for a start, one of us is either away working, and if not, while we always start off in the same bed with a snuggle and a chat, we’ll often wake up in different beds, in different rooms. Now, because we are conditioned to think couples should always share a double bed, most people would see that as problematic. It definitely isn’t for us. Not for Dr Nerina Ramlakhan, either, who says it could be the best thing for some couples who are “sleep incompatible”, which we sometimes are. I’m a heavy sleeper, he’ll wake up if a bird tweets. I go off straight away, he needs an hour or two. He wants…

Amanda Abbington, 44, lives in London with her children, Grace and Joe. She recently separated from her Sherlock co-star, Martin Freeman. Tell us about your character… I play Detective Sergeant Sophie Mason. She becomes an integral part of the story when two young adults go missing, and a teacher is accused of misconduct. What challenges does she face? She has a really complicated and intimate relationship with her neighbour, and her son is ill. She has to navigate all these problems while investigating several crimes, and being a single parent. Why doesn’t she trust people? She’s been very hurt in the past by her ex-husband. She also has a great natural instinct, and when things are wrong, she always stands up for the right side. How did you prepare for…

‘My mum and sister had type 2 diabetes in later life, and because of how I eat… I knew I was prone to it’ Loose Women stars Ruth Langsford, Coleen Nolan and Nadia Sawalha gamely decided to have their chances of developing type 2 diabetes tested last week on the show. They were joined by Countryfile presenter Anita Rani – who presents an ITV documentary next month, Diabetes: Fast Fix – to reveal their results. Coleen and Nadia were put in the ‘moderately high risk’ category, with a one-in-seven chance of getting type 2 diabetes in the next decade. The ladies also had blood tests, which placed Ruth, 58, and Nadia, 53, in the ‘normal’ zone. Coleen, 53, alarmingly, discovered she was in the ‘pre-diabetic zone’. Still, the mum-of-three, whose…

It is absolutely shocking that dementia (of which Alzheimer’s is the most common form) is the leading cause of death for women in the UK. Over 40,000 people under 65 have it, and with women living well into their 80s now, half a million live with dementia, as likelihood increases with age. Hollywood star Julianne Moore’s Oscar-winning performance as a woman with early-onset Alzheimer’s in 2014 film Still Alice, brought the utter cruelty of the condition to a global audience. But, closer to home, there are a host of brave celebrities speaking out and raising awareness of this devastating disease. ‘I’m helping people’ It felt like the entire British nation was lost for words after Dame Barbara Windsor’s husband of 18 years, Scott Mitchell, 55, announced she had been secretly…

EAT UP AND FIGHT WRINKLES! There are a million face creams, lotions and potions that promise to hold back time, and I should know. At 65, I’ve tried them all! Make-up artists are constantly praising my great skin and asking me what’s my secret potion… I’m sorry to disappoint, but I don’t think there is a cream on the market that can truly banish wrinkles. I believe that the best way to keep skin line-free is to feed it from the inside out. Start by eating clean, replacing processed foods with fresh, healthy alternatives. This doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive – it just means going back to simple, wholesome cooking. Regular readers know I’d always advise you to stay away from sugar. Keep some grapes in the freezer for…

HOW IT WORKS Determined to lose weight ahead of your holiday? Take inspiration from Suzy Wengel, dietitian and author of The Scandi Sense Diet, who lost 6st in 10 months by eating a handful each of veggies, lean protein, unrefined carbs plus up to three tablespoons of good fats like avocado and dark chocolate, three times a day. Follow our Palm Proof diet and you could drop 5lb in just seven days. • If the mechanics of dieting get you down, here’s a plan that means you can forget calorie-counting. Fat-balancing, or weighing foods, could be the answer. Suzy reveals that, by eating four handfuls of the right balance of foods at each meal, you can lose weight and, importantly, keep it off. • The four handfuls comprise two vegetable/salad-based portions…

Gloria Hunniford is a mum of three and grandmother of 10. She’s been divorced, remarried and learned to deal with the loss of her daughter and, on Rip Off Britain, she battles consumer issues. In her own words, she’s ‘lived a lot’. So, ask Gloria anything… Should I move away from my twin sister? I love my twin with all my heart, but after years of being ‘the funny one’, while my twin was labelled ‘the beautiful one’, I’m thinking of moving away to start a life of my own. I don’t want to be compared to anyone any more. My only concern is that I’ll miss her terribly, and I’m afraid she’ll be deeply hurt if I decide to move. How can I break it to her about my plans to leave?…

This week, Katie Price waves goodbye to her flirty 30s, as she marks her 40th birthday. However, those of you thinking that the former glamour model had finally sown her wild oats are mistaken. Just weeks before her birthday, the mum-of-five is believed to have finally ditched cheating husband Kieran Hayler, 31 – and returned to her hard partying ways. She’s also apparently bagged herself another man – Irish footballer Shane Duffy, 26. Despite being banned from driving, the star’s signature pink Range Rover was photographed outside the sportsman’s Brighton home last week – where a friend is said to have dropped her off. What’s more, the star’s been notably missing from the Loose Women panel lately, while she films the second series of her reality TV show, Katie Price:…
