She made a surprise appearance at Wimbledon last week to support her pal Serena Williams, but while a Royal attendee usually thrills tennis lovers, Meghan Markle managed to infuriate them with her diva demands and was even reportedly dubbed a ‘nightmare’ by an official working at Wimbledon. Speaking about the Duchess of Sussex’s attendance at Court One with two friends, the All England Club official put in charge of the visit admitted: ‘It was a nightmare, she was a nightmare.’ The American Duchess also apparently upset traditional club members by wearing jeans – which meant she couldn’t go into the Royal Box. And, despite being surrounded by 12,000 attendees and captured on camera by the media, the 37-year-old’s security detail asked members of the public to stop taking photos of…

How often do you change your bed sheets? We all have busy lives, and if we’re being entirely honest, it’s difficult to keep up with all the cleaning and laundry involved with running a household. We’re lucky if we can find a clean top for work each morning! So, when a recent poll (commissioned by End of Tenancy Cleaning London) landed on our desks stating that 57 per cent of us don’t change our bedding every week, we were shocked. Not because we think it’s gross when people don’t, but because most of us expected the number to be higher! We’re not proud of it, but a straw poll revealed the majority of us at the best office wash our bedding every two weeks. Helen, our Deputy Lifestyle Editor, however,…

Family holiday blues My husband and I are going on holiday soon to Rhodes, with our two young kids, and our friends and their little ones. We’ve had the flights booked for ages, but have been debating for ages about accommodation. Now my pal, without consulting us, has taken things into her own hands and booked us into a very exclusive hotel, far above the budget we’d agreed. We can’t afford it, nor do we need such luxury – all the boys want is a pool! She’s offered to ‘lend us’ the money, which is embarrassing, and I don’t want to get into debt over it. Help!

The X Factor is undergoing a major facelift in this, its 16th year, with not one but two new series! The first will feature celebrity singers, while the second is to pitch former X Factor stars in a ‘Battle of the Champions’.

I’m not sure about the rest of the country, but in London there are signs and announcements all over the place telling you to carry a bottle of water. The reason it worries me is because I’m convinced our over-reliance on plastics is a contributory cause to cancer. According to a recent report by WWF, the average person…
