Updating your look used to mean refreshing your makeup or wardrobe. Now it often means literally changing your face to follow fashion. Social media is filled with young celebrities who’ve bought into the “trout pout” craze – and lip augmentation is now the UK’s most requested non-surgical procedure. But it’s not risk free. This week, we spoke to top surgeon Mark Ho-Asjoe, who warns lip fillers can be addictive and create a “ticking time bomb of irreversible damage.” If you’re considering having anything done, read our exclusive report on page 10 . It may just make you think again.…

The returned to the spotlight with a bang at the Grammys – winning five gongs – before dropping the bombshell she’d married her long-term boyfriend Simon Konecki as she referred to him as her “husband.” Now insiders tell Closer how Adele, 28 – who has son Angelo, four, with the charity CEO – is hoping for another baby following the achievements of her record-breaking third album, 25 . A source says: “Adele’s got everything she could possibly want right now. She’s said everything is in place and she’s ready for baby number two.” In October, Adele revealed her battle with postnatal depression left her “too scared” to have another child, but during the interview she hinted she’d like more children, referencing how after vocal surgery in 2011 she had to…

‘I felt I’d changed and I wanted the old me back’ When Victoria Elder first saw her baby girl, she remembers looking into her big blue eyes and noticing how much she looked like her. But she recalls her first coherent thought was: “I’ve made a huge mistake.” And 18 years on, she admits she still regrets having children. Victoria, 48, who works for a mortgage company, tells Closer : “I’m not saying I don’t love my daughter, Morgane. I do, very much. But I do regret ever having become a mother. “There are various reasons why I don’t enjoy it. When she was little and playing, I’d find sitting around on the floor so boring. “As she grew older, I struggled with the fact she always needed my company.…

Flaunting their amazingly toned bikini bodies on holiday in Mexico last week, BFFs Jennifer Aniston, 48, and Courteney Cox, 52, proved they were still in as good a shape as they were over two decades ago when they starred in hit TV show Friends . And insiders say the actresses, who have remained close friends since the series ended 13 years ago, have been working out for two hours a day together to maintain their size 8 figures after taking up Hollywood’s hottest new exercise trend: SUP yoga (stand-up paddleboard yoga.) STRICT REGIME A source says: “Both Jen and Courteney have had to work harder to keep in shape as they’ve got older. They’ve become addicted to their new SUP yoga workouts, which they do on a private strip of…

‘I’m always suspicious men are after my cash’ At just 17, Jane Parks’ life changed in an instant when she scooped £1million with her first ticket ever for the Euromillions. But rather than enjoying a life of luxury, she’s struggled to find happiness with her winnings and says her life is “empty” and “stressful.” The 21-year-old, from Edinburgh, splashed out on designer clothes and bags and enjoyed luxury holidays in the US and the Maldives. But despite her winnings, she still hasn’t found contentment. She owns a flat and has invested in a luxury three-bed house with a jacuzzi, but rents them out and has moved back in with her mum. Ex-hairdresser Jane previously told Closer how a relationship ended after she showered her boyfriend with gifts. She now struggles…

‘After I lost my son, I’d spend my days downing booze’ When Janice Gill’s father died of a heart attack 30 years ago, she turned to alcohol to cope with her grief. But her drinking quickly spiralled out of control and soon she was downing a bottle of brandy a day. Janice was eventually fired from her job as an airport security guard for drinking during work. Shockingly, when Janice’s son, Jamie – sadly also an alcoholic – died aged 22 in 2009 from alcohol poisoning, she still couldn’t stop drinking. Rather than it being a wake-up call, she sank further into alcoholism and was warned she had just months to live unless she quit booze for good. But in an unusual twist, Janice, who tried rehab and going cold…

1 MADONNA FALLS OVER ON STAGE, 2015 It all came crashing down for Madonna when she took a tumble down a set of stairs live on air. Her elaborate cape became stuck and her dancers didn’t pull it off in time, resulting in her falling backwards. “Nothing can stop me and love really lifted me up!” she Instagrammed, minutes after leaving the stage. 2 GERI’S UNION JACK DRESS, 1997 It’s been 20 years since Geri Horner – Ginger Spice – wore her infamous Union Jack dress. It was created by her sister who sewed a tea towel on to a plain LBD – it was so short, her knickers showed. It later sold for £41,320 at auction. 3 ADELE FLIPS THE BIRD, 2012 She won Album Of The Year for…

1 HIGH SHINE It’s a new addition to the Nails Inc collection – and we were seriously impressed with the bold colour. Just two coats had a gorgeous glossy finish, which stayed chip-proof for a good four to five days. 2 QUICK DRY This berry pink painted on easily and was touch- proof in just a couple of minutes. It was great on its own, but looked better with a layer of the sheer gel effect top coat from the same range. 3 CONDITIONING COLOUR This baby pink shade conditioned and healed dry and brittle nails back to health while keeping our pinkies looking pretty. Great for serial nail painters!…

CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER “I’d never go in there. I’d honestly lose my mind. I liked I’m A Celeb! – it’s stripped back and you learn who you are, but CBB seems like a big fish bowl with alcohol!” ON PAL FERNE MCCANN “Ferne and I always send each other messages of confidence. I make her my Woman Crush Wednesday on Instagram!” FAME “I’ve gone from being a nobody to a somebody very quickly and the pressure to be what everyone wants you to be has been crippling. At times, it almost consumes you. For a long time, I was adamant that one day everything I’ve worked for would come crashing down.”…

How much do you spend on food? Around £70 a week, a bit more if friends are coming over. I shop online because I live up three flights of stairs with no lift – when the delivery man arrives I muck in and we take it all up together. Describe your daily diet… If I’m up early to be on set, I tend to have fruit and then a cereal bar a bit later. Lunch is typically a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich with steamed veg or salmon and crackerbread. I’m often working away and staying in hotels so dinner is often a chicken burger with fries and crisps, or steak with vegetables. I’ll snack on onion rings or scampi fries. If I’m being good I’ll have grapes, but if…

How does it feel to be back in Benidorm ? It’s always great. Obviously we all say it’s the best show in the world, but it is – and it has the best cast! Will Joyce find love this series? Well, she’s a bit like me really. I always think it’s too late for me, and I think it’s too late for Joyce as well because you are a victim of your own circumstance. I’ve been on my own since 2001 and I’ve never had any intentions of doing anything else. Sometimes you do think, “Maybe I should have a companion, because I’m on my own and I get lonely,” – but then I think, “Ugh. I couldn’t be ar*ed anyway!” I think Joyce is the…

Actor Pasha Bocarie (who plays Rakesh) tells us: “There’s a list of people who want to get Rakesh! Things turn nasty when you least expect it, and even though he’s found himself in this situation before, it’s now getting out of control. Would I like to do some comedy? There are some very talented comedic actors in Emmerdale and if I get to work with them and it’s written well, then yes, I definitely would. But, equally, I love the dark stuff too…”…

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE TOM CRUISE GETS MACHO MON 27 FEB, 8PM, E4 In 1996, Tom Cruise starred in this blockbuster – based on the classic TV series – as Ethan Hunt, a spy framed for the murder of his team. He must expose the real shifty agent, with a lot of fancy stunts and boys’ toys along the way. Fab. DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES MONKEYS EVERYWHERE SAT 25 FEB, 9PM, C4 This sequel to 2011’s Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes is set 10 years after that film’s dramatic events, in which a plague wiped out much of the human race. Now, a band of survivors (including Jason Clarke, above) struggle in a post-apocalyptic San Francisco ruled by (talking) monkeys. Speaking of, Caesar…

Her drunken antics dominated headlines for all the wrong reasons last year – but, last week, Jordan opened up about her secret inner torment, admitting she was “numb inside” and had been drinking heavily in a bid to cope with her unhappiness. The mum-of-five revealed that at the end of 2016 she was “going through the blackest mood” of her life and turned to booze as a crutch. Jordan – real name Katie Price – said: “I was so low. I had started drinking really heavily.” She added: “I went through the blackest mood of my life last year. I couldn’t see the point of getting up in the morning. Everything was good up until last year when I hit rock, rock bottom.” Friends say Jordan, 38, reached her lowest…

He made his name as Kim Kardashian’s BFF on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, and last year won over the British public with his no-nonsense attitude on Celebrity Big Brother. It was while he was in the house that Jonathan Cheban witnessed the beginnings of the fiery romance between Stephanie Davis and Jeremy McConnell. Now that Jeremy has confirmed he is the father of Steph’s one-month old son Caben-Albi, Jonathan, 42, says he hopes the couple can put the past behind them and work it out. Jonathan says: “I think how Steph and Jeremy worked out was terrible, but they do have this beautiful baby now and it would be great if they could make it work. I loved them both when we were in the house: he was fun…

After a turbulent start to the year, with her ex-husband Jamie O’Hara divulging secrets from their marriage on Celebrity Big Brother, Danielle Lloyd happily announced last week that she’s expecting a child with the “love of her life,” fiancé Michael O’Neill. And mum-of-three Danielle – who was seen kissing and splashing around in the waves with Michael on a recent break in Dubai – admits she’s learning to love her new curves. “I’m seriously fat!” laughs Danielle, 33. “But I don’t care – I’ve been plagued my whole life by insecurities and before I’d have been worried about looking like a whale, but Michael loves me however I look. He always tells me how sexy I am.” CHANGING PRIORITIES Danielle adds: “I was the heaviest I’ve ever been at 10½st…

Tweets that he’s £43m in debt in Feb 2016, then his feud with Taylor Swift reignites with new song Famous . In June 2016, his video for Famous , featuring naked celebs, sparks a backlash over its “misogyny.” Kanye’s fashion line Yeezy is slated as “boring” by critics at New York Fashion Week in September 2016. Kim is robbed in her Paris hotel in October. Kanye blasts Jay-Z for not visiting after the heist. In November he cancels his Saint Pablo tour after ranting on stage about Beyoncé and Hillary Clinton.

It wasn’t just his wife who looked amazing last week, Justin Theroux, 45, also showed off a ripped six-pack during the group’s Mexico getaway! And the actor showed a rare public display of affection to his wife by posting a selfie of the pair, captioned: “HBDJ<3 XO” – a move pals say was given the thumbs-up by Jen, who’s been left upset by recent divorce rumours. A source says: “ Jen’s fed up with the recent split reports and was happy that Justin put up the post , even though it isn’t something either of them do very often. “Jen has told him they need to silence the split rumours; and even though she doesn’t use social media, she's reconsidering what they post to show the world they are in…

EMMA: What’s changed for you since winning the Lottery? JANE: I get a lot more attention now and feel under pressure. I feel like I need to be careful how I come across. Before, I could look how I wanted, but now I feel there’s more pressure for me to act a certain way because people know who I am. E: How has that affected your life? Do you trust people? J: It’s hard. With guys, I never know what their intentions are and because I’ve been hurt in the past I put up a massive guard. I was in a relationship where I thought I could buy love and affection. You can’t. E: Why do you think you put a guard up against people? J: When I was younger…

‘It’s still early days, but we’re really into one another’ He quickly earned a reputation as one of Made In Chelsea’s most notorious playboys, but Alex Mytton has exclusively revealed to Closer that he is completely smitten with Kate Moss’ half-sister Lottie. However, unlike his ex-girlfriend Binky Felstead – who is expecting her first child with Josh “JP”Patterson – Alex tells Closer he’s in no rush to start a family with Lottie, who he’s been dating since last October. The 26-year-old reality star says: “I think Lottie is amazing, but she’s only 19 and I have no desire to have a baby. I’m not ready for the responsibility; I think 30-plus would be a good time. I can’t even iron my own shirts, so I’m definitely not ready for a…

She’s joining the award-winning cast for the final series of Broadchurch, but seasoned actress Sarah Parish tells us she wasn’t fazed about being the new girl alongside old pal David Tennant, who plays DI Alec Hardy on the show. Sarah, 48, reveals: “I’ve now worked with David five times! When you get to my age, being a newbie is all right really because generally when you turn up to read-throughs you’re going to know most of the people there. Broadchurch was like a big reunion for a lot of people and there were people I hadn’t seen for ages, so it was lovely.” In the third series of the crime drama, Sarah plays the life and soul of the party Cath Atwood, whose mate Trish (Corrie’s Julie Hesmondhalgh), is sexually…

LINDSAY LOHAN, 30 The Mean Girls actress has openly admitted to battling alcohol addiction in the past. The troubled star confessed she’d been to rehab six times and has been convicted of drink-driving. DENISE WELCH, 58 She became notorious for her drunken antics on CBB in 2012 and went teetotal later that year. The former Loose Women panellist admitted a year later that she only realised she was an alcoholic after giving up drink.

The mum-of-four – one of the original ’90s party girls with best friend Kate Moss – says she’s been sober for seven years.…

Scary newspaper headlines can make it seem like the whole world is toxic, but it’s important to get some perspective. Instead of taking these headlines at face value, see what organisations like the NHS, Public Health England or Cancer Research UK have to say. Here’s my guide to the latest, biggest food scares – and how to deal with them… DON’T BIN BURNT TOAST The Food Standards Agency recently warned people not to overcook toast or potatoes thanks to the risks of acrylamide, a chemical compound found in starchy foods cooked at high temperatures. Acrylamide risk is about quantity. Anything – including water – is poisonous if you have too much. A bit of overcooked toast will hardly expose you to any. In fact, you’d have to eat 160 times…

TV’s Sarah Willingham reveals how to take control of your finances & make the most of your cash  “I earn £28k as a HR officer and in 2013, my husband and I bought our home under the Right To Buy scheme. The mortgage was in my name as my husband is retired. I also took out a life insurance policy. Three years later, however, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. “I received full sick pay and our Aviva critical illness policy took care of the mortgage – we paid £90,000 of the £106,000 owed. The remaining £16,000 is in a savings account – we use this for the mortgage each month to avoid an early repayment fee. We also want to move next year, so have kept the mortgage…

A lot of recent studies have found that girls are struggling to take themselves as seriously as boys. In one, a story was read to six-year-olds and they were then asked whether they believed the smart protagonist was male or female. The majority opted for male. This is alarming, as clearly girls are picking up on negative influences that lead them to believe that boys are more important and successful than them and their peers. Here’s how to counter that... HELP THEIR CONFIDENCE • WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE Don’t use terms that suggest girls are less capable than boys. I squirm when I hear people say: “You run like a girl.” You may feel these are innocent comments, but the truth is they send a clear message that girls are weaker…

Former TOWIE star Abi Clarke knows all too well the dangers of lip fillers. The 24-year-old opted to have the procedure for the first time in 2015. But the outcome was not what she’d expected, with the filler hardening in her lips. Speaking to Closer about it, the reality star said: “My body reacted badly to it and the filler went so hard, it started to split my lip open. “I went back to the clinic and they put more filler in to try to even it out, which just made it worse. I went through six months of hell trying to get it removed at a different clinic and it was agony.” However, Abi shockingly refused to let the experience stop her from having more treatments. And, last…

‘Cheryl admires Kourtney’s bond with her children’ Speculation that Cheryl had given birth reached fever pitch last week when, just days after her toyboy Liam Payne returned to the UK from LA, her former Girls Aloud bandmates Kimberley Walsh and Sarah Harding paid tribute to her on Instagram for no apparent reason. One fan later speculated Cheryl, 33, had given birth, writing online: “She is having the baby NOW.” UNDER SCRUTINY As Closer reported last week, Cheryl and 23-year-old Liam’s mums are moving in with them to help with the baby for the first few weeks. And insiders reveal she’s also been turning to her celebrity pals for advice Ð including mum-of-three Kourtney Kardashian, 37, sister of her long-term pal Khloe. A source says: “Cheryl really scaled back her work…

After a roller-coaster few months, Danielle admits her celeb pals Jordan and Stephanie Davis have been by her side. Danielle has been friends with mum-of-five Jordan, 38 – also known as Katie Price – for almost a decade and met Stephanie a few years ago through mutual friends. The TV star says: “Katie got in contact recently to congratulate me on the pregnancy. We’re competing as to who has the most children – we have so many now between us! She’s giving me advice on how to balance everything and I really trust her advice. I’ve asked her to be my bridesmaid next year, she’s always been a loyal friend.” And Danielle says Stephanie, 23 – who gave birth to Caben-Albi last month – will stand strong, despite resuming contact…

‘They know the women have more selling power’ His breakdown in November made headlines, but Kanye’s not the only male member of the Kardashian family to have battled problems. Rob, 29 – who once again split from on/off fiancée Blac Chyna, 28, just last week – was a recluse for two years until 2015 as he fought depression, weight gain and low self-esteem, which he still suffers from. A source says: “The whole family, especially Khloe, are supportive of Rob’s battle, but he knows he has a lot of issues to face. It’s been hard on him being the only male member of the Kardashians – he felt the loss of his dad [lawyer Robert Kardashian, who died in 2003] more than anyone. “He can’t help feeling a bit adrift…

Homeland star Claire Danes, 37, has a four-year-old son, Cyrus, with actor husband Hugh Dancy, 41. Speaking out about the difficulties of motherhood in 2014, she said: “Being a mum is incredibly challenging. But we still feel a pressure to talk about it in very romantic terms. We all have that resentment and anxiety about that responsibility. And then chemically it can run riot… there’s no ‘off’ button.”…

ORGY-GATE – Alex was in the doghouse in MIC in 2014 when he admitted to cheating on Binky four times before the pair decided to give it another go. Just one episode later, he confessed he’d had an “orgy” with co-star Spencer Matthews and “a number of girls.” THE BLACKOUTS – During the breakdown of his relationship with Binky, Alex repeatedly blamed his infidelities on his “blackouts.” He told Binky: “I have nights where I forget everything, Binky. You know this.” DUMPED BY TEXT – Alex brought model girlfriend Nicola Hughes on to the Chelsea scene in series nine (2015), but dumped her after a year by text; he slept with newbie Olivia Bentley on the same evening.…

How did it feel to get the call to be in Broadchurch ? Pretty amazing! On my first day working with David Tennant and Olivia Colman I had to fight against feeling I was a competition winner! Tell us a bit about your character, Trish... Trish gets raped, and to hear that was a little bit scary for me – I needed to know it was going to be handled in a sensitive way, and it was. I think it’s an interesting take that they’ve cast an ordinary looking middle-aged woman in this role, as opposed to the classic young girl being chased through the woods… Is it important for you to move away from Hayley, your transgender character on Coronation Street ? I feel very separate from it now…

HYPNOTHERAPIST CLARE HUNT, WHO RUNS ROLLING HILLS HYPNOTHERAPY, SAYS: “Hypnosis is a deep state of relaxation, where the mind is focused and can be guided towards a predetermined goal. Hypnotherapy can have a powerful effect on perception, which we can see from Janice’s story. During hypnosis, Janice would have been able to process the grief and guilt she felt in a safe way and be supported to explore how to think about her experiences differently. This led her to have a profound mindset shift and a more positive future.”…

TRADE SECRETS… You may have mixed your highlighter with foundation, or layered up two different mascaras before, but have you ever doubled up your hair products? If you use mousse to add body and hold to your locks, try mixing in a little smoothing serum for added oomph and shine. Rake through dry hair from mid-length to ends, then blow-dry again – you’ll get all the lift you want from your mousse without any leftover crunchiness. HOW NICOLE PERFECTS HER FELINE FLICKS A classic feline eyeliner flick can transform your whole look – and Nicole’s exaggerated peepers are the perfect example. First, use a sheer primer for extra holding power. Then, using a fine felt pen liner, trace along your lashes, staying as close to them as you can. Rather…

She famously lost a staggering 3st in five months after overhauling her diet and fitness regime in 2013, slimming down from a size 16 to a 6. But despite her transformation Vicky Pattison has made no secret of her battle against her fluctuating weight. In fact, the star is the first to admit she let her fitness regime slip after gaining over a stone last year. Vicky, 29, tells Closer : “Losing weight and maintaining your size isn’t easy. A boyfriend, a social life, and still be a size 8? That’s bloody tough and I fell off the wagon.” The ex- Geordie Shore star – who saw her career skyrocket after being crowned Queen of I’m A Celeb! in 2015 – admits her busy schedule led her to pile on…

“When my anxiety started in my early 20s I didn’t realise what it was, I just thought I was really stressed. I’d have panic attacks, which can be so scary. I have to try to keep it under control, but I do struggle with it. It’s always there, lurking in the background. Working out in the gym really helps, and it’s a necessity because if I don’t go, my anxiety creeps back on me.”…

“MY POCKET MONEY WAS… Probably £10 a month. My mum was often skint when we were little, so we didn’t get much. MY FIRST JOB WAS… I did many things. I worked as a magician, trained as a plumber and I even worked as a tour guide in a cave. I SPENT MY FIRST PROPER PAY CHEQUE ON… The biggest tent I could find. I love camping. THE MOST EXPENSIVE THING I OWN IS… A Mercedes-Benz GLA. I do like my cars. MY BIGGEST IMPULSE PURCHASE WAS… A massive set of neon lights that spell my initials. SPENDER OR SAVER? Both. I value money and I like to save, but at the same time I look after the people around me. EVER MADE A FINANCIAL MISTAKE? Using the wrong accountant…

What’s your biggest fear? Illness. My mum suffered with multiple sclerosis and I’d hate for my children to go through the same. What is your worst habit? Worrying. I like to be organised, even with small things like my laundry. Ever had a near-death experience? A few years back I had a motorbike accident and broke both my arms. What animal would you be and why? I’d like to be a dolphin; they’re dead cuddly. What’s your earliest memory as a child? Sunday lunches. Describe yourself in three words... Optimistic, daring, willing. • HomeSense aprons, designed by Rankin for Red Nose Day, are available nationwide…

This is an entertainment show with “sport at its heart” – how sporty are you? Not hugely any more, though at school I used to play a bit of netball and hockey. My house is full of it, however – and it’s only going to get worse because Chester [Holly’s two-year-old son] is showing signs of loving football just as much as his older brother [seven-year-old Harry]. Thank God for Belle [who’s almost six] because we can go to ballet on a Saturday and do nice stuff. Football’s constantly on in our house – my garden is full of plastic goals and most nights when I go to bed, Dan [Baldwin, her TV producer husband] is still watching it. You have a whistle on the show [hence the title] to…
