Having already weathered its fair share of drama over the years, Strictly Come Dancing was thrown into fresh chaos last week when hosts Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman announced their departure from the show, leaving fans reeling. Now sources tell Closer that fears of further bombshells surfacing were behind their shock decision to quit. ‘It's been one drama after another. The fear of further scandals emerging became too much for them both, ultimately leading to their decision. It's not what they signed up for,’ an insider says. ‘The tide has turned. They don't want to live in constant fear of more dark secrets coming out. Before things unravelled, they promised to stick together, all for one and one for all. It became a case of just one scandal too many.…

Her weight has been a talking point for many months – and sources tell Closer that Katie Price's drastic look is, in part, down to the stress caused by her ex-husband Kieran Hayler being charged with the rape of a 13-year-old girl. Katie's third husband Kieran, 38, was charged with three counts of rape and one count of sexual assault against the girl at an address in West Sussex between June and October 2016 – during his marriage to former glamour model Katie, 47. It is understood that the alleged victim is not a member of Katie or Kieran's extended family. A legal representative for Kieran said, ‘Kieran Hayler strongly denies the allegations made against him in its entirety. Mr Hayler is fully engaged and has been co-operating with the…

Georgie says, ‘When you find out dietary requirements, ask about drink requirements too and, on the day, make alcoholic and non-alcoholic options clear and accessible. • If you're having cocktails, make sure there's a non-alcoholic option that isn't a child's drink – you can still have a posh glass, nice ingredients and garnishes. • Tell your wedding planner in advance who won't be drinking, so their glasses can be filled with non-alcoholic prosecco for the toast. • Sober guests may not be up for dancing all night. Consider providing games, a firepit to chat around – or anywhere quiet where people can talk. • It's Your Wedding: A Step By Step Guide Down The Aisle by Georgie Mitchell is available on Amazon…

When Oli London moved to South Korea aged 23, his mind was blown – not only by the food, culture and music that he'd never heard before, but also by its K-pop stars. Having grown up as a self-conscious teen, Oli had always been desperate to change his appearance – and he decided to take drastic measures. In 2013, Oli went under the knife, and his main goal was to look like his idol, Jimin from K-pop band BTS. But after each surgery, he didn't feel perfect enough, so he kept going under the knife. A shocking 38 surgeries later, including six nose jobs, Oli has now finally accepted his appearance. He says, ‘I'm just trying to help people try to learn to love themselves and not change their identity…

After he shared a cosy Instagram snap, it seems Romeo Beckham has confirmed that he is back dating his former girlfriend, Kim Turnbull. Just seven months after they first got together, the pair broke up earlier this year amidst the ongoing Beckham family feud. Now we're told that the news of Romeo, 23, and Kim, 25, reuniting has given mum Victoria a rare reason to smile as she endures a tough year, family-wise. Our source tells us, ‘Victoria has always liked Kim. She's stylish, grounded and completely drama-free – exactly the kind of person Vic wants around her family. She's said privately that Kim's the best one yet. Kim's never tried to use the Beckham name for attention and that means a lot.’ Romeo and Kim initially began dating in…

And now, Closer can reveal that those within her inner circle are increasingly worried about the future of her relationship. Friends say that in recent months, Olivia has been finding it increasingly tough to juggle the relentless pace of her career with the realities of married life.

When Heidi Marney split from her partner in 2019, she moved in with family friend Rob Holden, who was looking for a lodger. The arrangement was only meant to be temporary, but when the UK went into lockdown and Heidi lost her job, her stay became indefinite. With Rob agreeing to waive her rent until she got back on her feet, Heidi felt indebted to him, but things took a disturbing turn after he made sexual comments to her while drunk in April 2020. Later that year, when Heidi began dating, Rob's reaction revealed a possessive and controlling streak, prompting Heidi to question his true intentions. Months later, the realisation that Rob had been tracking her phone led to an even more horrifying discovery – he'd been recording her using…

How much do you spend? We mix it up between Abel & Cole – which is an organic food delivery service – and Asda. Abel & Cole is brilliant for the quality and convenience. I probably spend about £130 a week with them, unless I buy organic wine, and then it jumps up a bit! Asda is where we get all the basics and cupboard bits, and that's probably another £100 or so a week. Describe your daily diet… During the week I actually fast, so I skip breakfast, but I don't at weekends. Lunch is usually quite light – cheese and crackers or homemade soup. If I do have a big lunch, I'll make sure dinner is something lighter. Evenings are more of a sit-down meal. I'll make something…

Brits aren't very good at talking about constipation – or anything to do with poo – but it's an incredibly common condition, affecting one in seven people at some point in their lives. There are a lot of old wives’ tales about what causes it and traditional cures for constipation, but which ones really work? It's time to get over our embarrassment and start talking all things poo. WHAT IS CONSTIPATION? Constipation doesn't mean you're totally bunged up and can't go at all; technically, it means you poo three times a week or less. Most people probably poo about once a day, so this is a significant decrease. But everybody is different, so if you only poo twice a week – and that's always been the case – then that's…

‘NO ONE CAN SEE THIS ENDING WELL FOR HER’ It's been a tumultuous 2025 for Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne. The couple, who have been married for eight years and have two children, split in March before rekindling their romance a month later. It's thought the most recent separation was spurred sparked by Dan secretly buying another property behind his wife's back. But despite reconciling in April, a source has now revealed to Closer that the former TOWIE star, 34, is living in his second home – with Jac's approval. ‘It's a move that even friends and family are baffled by, but Jac has agreed to Dan living in the house he purchased behind her back,’ our insider explains. ‘He's apparently told friends he is getting the best of both…

Liam Payne's loved ones recently marked the one-year anniversary of his tragic death – and as his sisters Nicola Payne and Ruth Gibbins paid emotional tributes to the late One Direction star, Ruth also appeared to take a swipe at his girlfriend Kate Cassidy when she spoke about people trying to ‘gain fame’ from his passing.

Opening up about swapping nights out for night feeds, she tells Closer, ‘There's nothing in my old life that I'm really worried about letting go of. I've partied so much, it's actually concerning – I'm surprised my liver is even still inside my body! DIVINE TIMING ‘I feel like I've well and truly done it all. I was getting to the stage, as I approached 30, where I didn't enjoy going out like I used to. If I go out drinking now, I'd rather go home early.

It strengthens the skin barrier and keeps my base smooth, especially during the colder months. 2 THE SECRET TO A FLAWLESS BASE… is keeping things light and buildable.

SWIMMING KEEPS ME STRONG… I swim a few times a week now, but it's funny because I used to hate it, mostly because I couldn't do it properly! I took adult lessons last year and fell in love with it. It's become my happy place and the best way to clear my head. AUDIOBOOKS HELP ME UNWIND… I've swapped late-night scrolling for audiobooks. I listen for around 45 minutes before going to sleep and it really helps me switch off and relax. I TAKE TIME TO BREATHE… Whether it's a walk or 30 minutes of reading alone, I always make sure I carve out time for myself. Life can get really busy and, when it does, taking a step back and having a bit of space helps me feel centered…

‘SHE COULD EXPOSE NEW DETAILS TO SAVE HER OWN SKIN’ Following a series of controversies, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson had their royal titles removed in a move that publicly shamed the pair following their involvement with deceased paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein. But despite remaining civil – including cohabiting – in the wake of their 1996 divorce, sources tell Closer the ongoing scandals have left the former Duke and Duchess of York mired in constant rows and ‘backstabbing’ behaviour. BLAME GAME An insider reveals, ‘Sarah and Andrew are turning on each other. She believes Andrew pushed her to reach out to Jeffrey Epstein for financial help, and she's paying the price for his mistakes. Andrew denies that, and says Sarah always lived beyond her means. ‘Their fights are constant, it's…

When Molly Kilsby married her fiancé Joe, 27, in November 2023, she didn't want alcohol to play any part in the day. Molly, 28, a trainee midwife from Berkhamsted, Herts, says, ‘I have a complex relationship with alcohol, having grown up with an alcoholic in my family. Alcohol causes a lot of issues at weddings – arguments or people making decisions they regret – and I just wanted our day to be fun and light-hearted. ‘When Joe and I married, I'd been sober for four years, while Joe, who works for a charity, didn't drink for health reasons. Weddings are expensive, so it didn't make sense for us to pay for a bar that we wouldn't be making use of ourselves and that didn't reflect us as a couple.’ Molly…

Having opened up about her struggles with body insecurities in the past, Natalie Cassidy is now in a better place. Fresh off her victory on Cooking With The Stars last month, where she beat reality TV star Jack Osbourne and interior designer Kelly Hoppen, it's a major step forward for the former EastEnders actress, who's in a healthier state of mind. In August, she went to Crete for a family holiday, where she happily indulged in the delicious Greek cuisine. ‘I ate such nice food on that holiday and just loved it. I'm obsessed with the spinach and feta pastries out there. I must have put on 10lbs because I didn't stop eating them for 10 days solid,’ she tells Closer. ‘I love food and I love cooking. I'm constantly…

Presenting duo Helen Skelton and Gethin Jones continue to fuel romance rumours after the pair appeared on the red carpet at The Pride of Britain Awards last week looking rather cosy. After months of speculation around their relationship, the co-presenters posed together at London's Grosvenor House Hotel with Gethin, 47, wrapping his hand around Helen's waist. Dating rumours about Helen, 42, and Gethin began to circulate when the BBC Morning Live co-hosts appeared together on the BAFTAs red carpet in May. With over 1.5 million viewers watching the show each day, fans picked up on their on-screen flirting and frequent social media posts together, but the presenters have never o‰cially addressed their relationship status. And it's been reported that their BBC bosses feel that Helen and Gethin leaving things up…

LOVE WHAT YOU HAVE It's easy to long for a bigger house, fancy holidays, or a wardrobe full of the latest fashion. After all, we're bombarded with endless shopping hauls and product reviews across social media. But the current trend for ‘deinfluencing’ could go a long way to making you feel more satisfied with your life, just as it is.

It can also include reviews of ‘must-have’ trending items, dishing the dirt on why you can – and should – miss out. Think the opposite of FOMO. Accounts we love for keeping it real include @Amysbudgeting, @overcoming_overspending and @bloom_and_build_.…
