As the controversy surrounding Andrew’s ties to late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein becomes murkier still, the Royal’s former wife has taken a rather baffling stand. Fergie, who has just turned 60, has always been a polarising figure – and yet again, when most women might be ashamed at their ex being accused of anything as serious as sexual assault and keep their heads down, she has decided to publicly declare her loyalty. Prince Andrew is facing allegations that he slept with Jeffrey Epstein’s ‘sex slave’ Virginia Roberts when she was 17 – something he strongly denies. Paris detectives are probing claims that Andrew visited Epstein’s Parisian apartment – which contains a massage parlour – multiple times. Fergie pointedly said: ‘I think the most important thing in life is familyhood,’ adding that…

Kellie Shirley, 38, was born in Croydon and started her career at the National Youth Theatre, going on to juggle acting with TV presenting. She played Carly Wicks in EastEnders from 2006 to 2008, and made a return to Walford in 2012 for a brief but dramatic storyline. As one of ‘Barbara’s Revolutionaries’, she’s raising money for Alzheimer’s Research in honour of her friend and former co-star, Dame Barbara Windsor… Hi Kellie.

The saying goes, ‘Sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me’. Well, whoever came up with that phrase had obviously never been hit by so cutting and painful an insult that it stays with you for life. And I was that unlucky. I was 18 years old, at a family wedding, when a relative was complimenting some other girls on their dresses. ‘You look lovely,’ she smiled. Then she turned to me, patting my arm comfortingly. ‘Don’t worry, Sarah,’ she said. ‘We can’t all be thin and pretty.’ Don’t get me wrong – at 5ft 4in and a size 14-16, I was well aware I didn’t have a supermodel’s figure. At 18, I already had a two-year-old daughter, Danielle, and, having broken up with her…

SEPARATE BEDS? One of the best things about getting divorced early last year was finally getting a good night’s sleep! My ex-husband was a wriggler and for years had snored so loudly it would wake the dead. Now I’m in a relationship with a new man, who when he stays over wants to sleep in bed with me. But I seriously prefer separate beds (for sleeping!). Now I know what it feels like to wake up rested. What’s your advice? I don’t want to put him off. Rachel, Lancashire Girl, you are a grown-up. You know exactly what you like – good sex, followed by a great, relaxing, luxurious sleep. That way, beautifully rested, you can be your best and most gorgeous self. This bloke is also a grown-up.

… her relationship with TOWIE’s Tommy Mallet Everyone keeps asking me when I’m getting engaged or pregnant and it’s annoying. It’s been annoying for the past five years. I will have a child when I’m ready. Every time I put on a bit of weight people claim I’m pregnant. I spend all day replying to people telling them no, I’ve just got a bit of a belly from too many carbs. … Love Island’s Olivia Attwood joining the show I like Liv. I think she’s a really funny girl. I do think TOWIE is very different to other reality shows, though. We are a family. We are very honest and fall out, but we are all close, believe it or not! We don’t all like each other, but we are…

RUSSELL WATSON and ALED JONES, two of the country’s heavyweight classical artists, are back together on a new album. Russell, known as the ‘People’s Tenor’, first sang with former teenage chorister Aled on BBC’s Songs of Praise nine years ago – now they are enjoying success selling millions of records as a duo. Here, they open up about dad dancing, their special ‘relationship’ and singing everywhere from working men’s clubs to the Vatican… How and when did you two decide to work together? RUSSELL: Aled and I have known each other for 20 years. He sent me a text last year, sarcastically congratulating me on being the UK’s best-selling classical artist. I texted him back saying we should do something together, and then it all moved really quickly. I have…

I’m nearly 4 stone lighter! Radio presenter and best agony aunt Vanessa Feltz has been to hell and back since 2010, when she had a gastric band fitted. It made her life a misery – even her partner Ben Ofoedu admits they were years of ‘hell’. But she says those ‘brutal, unpredictable’ years, followed by yet another serious operation at the start of this year, were worth it. Now almost four stone lighter, Vanessa, 57, is quite literally a new woman… Hi, Vanessa, you look amazing! But getting to this point was traumatic, wasn’t it? It was pretty much hell before I had my gastric bypass in January. The gastric band I had fitted in 2010 would have been alright for some people, but for me it was brutal. Your…

Q I look permanently tired – even when I’m not! Is there a long-term solution, and how do I cover it up in the meantime? Veronica, Salisbury A DR AAMER SAYS: An updated version of the Vampire Lift, also known as the platelet-rich plasma facial (PRP), is now one of our most popular treatments – highly effective at rejuvenating tired-looking skin. The treatment entails having blood drawn from your arm, which is then processed through a centrifuge to concentrate the blood platelets and re-injected back into your face. Since the platelets are high in growth hormones, this stimulates the skin, giving it a ‘younger’ healthy colour, while new collagen growth helps it to appear smoother. Results are immediate and continue over the following weeks. You may be slightly swollen and red…

Grief-stricken Vinnie Jones has revealed he’s cried ‘almost every night’ since losing his ‘soulmate’ of 25 years, Tanya, to cancer in July. The footballer-turned-actor, 54, currently a contestant on Celebrity X Factor – admitted he couldn’t see himself ever falling in love again after losing wife Tanya, 53, whom he vowed to look after more than two decades ago. The striking couple went through numerous health problems – Tanya had a heart transplant at 21, then suffered cancer – and Vinnie had self-confessed issues with his temper. ‘People say, “How did it last?” and I say because it was real, true love. I think we found true love,’ said the grieving widower. ‘She is the light of my life. I will never be with anyone else…I think I’ve only got…

‘On work day, my morning routinea was nailed to an 11-minute turnaround. Alarm was set for 5am, car booked for 10 past. My clothes were laid out ready so I could shower, towel dry while brushing teeth, put on a massive dollop of moisturiser for my whole body, starting from my face. (I know, I know – body lotion on face is a mahoosive no-no, apparently. Can it really be that bad? How does a cream know what part of your body it’s moisturising?). Anyway, then I’d get dressed, brush my hair and put my mascara on in the car. But, things didn’t go to plan on Thursday 15 March 2018. The alarm went off and the 11-minute whirlwind kicked in until the moisturiser went down my body and hit…

HOW IT WORKS 1 Did you know you’re more likely to lose weight if you set calories for each meal instead of the whole day, according to a study from the University of Warwick?* 2 Findings revealed that when dieters stuck to a calorie limit per meal or snack, they consumed an average of 1,417 calories a day, compared to dieters who set an overall calorie limit and ate an average of 1,636 calories per day. 3 It’s thought reducing the calories at each meal drove down the slimmers’ daily intake. We love this idea, because setting calorie limits per meal means you soon get to know lots of meals with the same calories – fab for mixing and matching so you don’t get bored. GETTING STARTED ● Simply follow our seven-day menu…

Travel responsibly – that means ditch the car whenever you can – and walk or cycle. For long distances, try to travel by train – one short-haul return flight can account for 10 per cent of your yearly carbon emissions. Think about your diet – moving away from a meat-dominated one towards a more plant-based one can help, as producing meat creates vast amounts of carbon dioxide. Recycle and reuse. Plastic is filling up our oceans and killing marine life, while throwaway goods end up in landfill. At home, turn down the heating and put on an extra jumper, shower instead of taking a bath, join the library (rather than buying books), turn off your TV (don’t leave it in standby mode), avoid plastic shopping bags, opt for Tupperware instead…

Sarah Lancashire, 55, is one of Britain’s best-loved actresses, known for roles ranging from Corrie’s Raquel Watts to Happy Valley’s Catherine Cawood. The mother-of-three is married to TV executive Peter Salmon. What drew you to The Accident? Well, very often dramas are portrayed with a black-and-white aspect, but this isn’t like that at all. So that’s what’s so attractive – it’s very bold and fearless in what it says about the world today. It must have been an intense project. How was it to film? It was fantastically rewarding, just the alchemy of having brilliant scripts and the right director. The subject matter is obviously quite harrowing. How did you cope with that? It was very intense and that’s the happiest place to be. When you’re emotionally athletic you can…
