Padma Lakshmi isn’t the only foodie in the fam! The Top Chef host and cookbook author spends time in the kitchen with daughter Krishna, especially during the holidays. “We bake a lot of sugar cookies,” she says. And with Christmas approaching, Padma, 48, and her 8-year-old — whose dad is Padma’s on-again boyfriend, Adam Dell — are not messing around. Their next project? A gingerbread house! “[It] takes us days,” she says, “and completely dominates our kitchen table.” Here, the multitasking mama — who’s working with Kelloggs this season — serves Us more. Q: What kitchen skills would you like to pass down to Krishna? I think everybody should know how to make mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables and two or three different salad dressings. Q: How will you spend the…

They’re Insta-official! After attending girlfriend Jessie J’s London concert on Nov. 13, Channing Tatum couldn’t contain his love: “This woman just poured her heart out on stage at the Royal Albert Hall,” he wrote on Instagram (right). “Whoever was there got to witness something special. Wow.” Even more proof of how serious they’ve gotten? Jessie’s mother was reportedly just a few seats away from him. “I didn’t realise how much I needed to see people I know and love in the audience,” the “Domino” singer, 30, wrote on Instagram after the show. “It gave me the boost I really truly needed.” On stage, she’d revealed even more personal news. “I was told four years ago that I can’t ever have children,” she said, before dedicating her song “Four Letter Word”…

Shedding a tear at…

Putting in work! Post-rehab, Demi Lovato “is getting back into kickboxing, going on hikes, and doing Pilates and yoga,” a source tells Us. She’s also spending three days a week in a sober-living facility and leaning on a round-the-clock sober coach, her ex Wilmer Valderrama and her pal Henry Levy. Demi, 26, and the NCIS star, 38, have remained friendly since their 2016 breakup and are “still in constant communication and speak over the phone pretty much every day,” says the source. “She never wants to jeopardize her relationship with him, her family or friends ever again” by relapsing.

What a lucky guy! On Nov. 13, the royal family released an official portrait in honor of Prince Charles’ 70th birthday. (It was taken in mid-September, says a source, before anyone knew Duchess Meghan was pregnant!) The next night, at a birthday bash, Charles’ mother, Queen Elizabeth II, gave a touching speech about her son, saying that watching him grow up has been like “planting a tree and being able to watch it grow.” The 92-year-old added that when her own mother saw her turn 70, she called it “exactly the age when the number of candles on your cake finally exceeds the amount of breath you have to blow them out.” Guests at the exclusive London soirée included Duchess Camilla, newlyweds Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank, Prince William and…

On Nov. 12, Lorde called Kanye West out by posting images of stages from her past concerts and a similar-looking picture from the rapper’s Nov. 11 performance. “Don’t steal — not from women or anyone else — not in 2018 or ever,” wrote the “Green Light” singer, 22. The 41-year-old (who famously feuded with Lorde’s pal Taylor Swift, 28) has yet to respond, but stage designer Es Devlin, who has worked with both artists, chimed in on Nov. 13: “The idea of a floating glass box of course isn’t in any way new,” she wrote. “I admire both and see no imitation at work here.”…

A new legal document filed by Rob Kardashian and obtained by Us sheds light on his precarious finances — and places blame on Blac Chyna, with whom he shares daughter Dream, 2. Their past public drama caused him “emotional damage,” he says, and he has “no desire to continue participating in a reality show,” meaning he’s no longer getting a check from Keeping Up With the Kardashians and can’t pay the over $13,000 per month in child support the exes initially agreed to.…
