KENDALL Jenner has opened up on cosmetic procedures she’s had in order to shut down rumours once and for all she’s had work done. 

While the Kardashian family love ‘tweakments’ and going under the knife to achieve their perfect image, 30-year-old Kendall has always maintained that she has never had any plastic surgery to maintain her supermodel looks. 

Appearing on the In Your Dreams podcast, Kendall shut down rumours that she’s had any sort of extensive work – despite facing years of criticism online by those claiming she’s lied about having surgery on her face, including a nose job. 

“I’m not going to sit here and convince anyone that I haven’t had work,” the star told host Owen Theile. “There’s a whole world on the internet that thinks I’ve had full facial reconstruction.

“I’m just here to tell you the truth, which is the fact that I’ve never had any plastic surgery on my face. Nothing. I’ve never had any work done.” 

While Owen didn’t appear convinced, she stood her ground and added: “I swear to God. I’ve done two rounds of Baby Botox in my forehead. That’s it. The only thing I’ve ever injected.”

She added that she “didn’t love it” and has opted to not use it since. 

“I look at old photos of me and I’m like, ‘Wait, it does look like I have a nose job,’” she added. “[But] I swear to God, on everything that I love, I’ve never had a nose job.” 

However, while she’s not had any major work done, she loves having skin rejuvenation treatments after suffering from acne for years. 

Among the treatments she’s tried are the “vampire facials” which involve microneedling platelet-rich plasma into the skin, and PRP injections to inject her own blood plasma back into her skin to give a filler-type effect. 

However, Kendall does understand where the confusion is coming from, admitting that looking at old photographs from her teenage years she could see why people would presume she’d gone under the knife. 

But she condemned those who have used social media to analyse what she may or may not have had done, saying it could have a negative impact on young people who follow her. 

“It can affect young people in such an interesting way,” she explained. “Because then they see that and they’re like, ‘Oh my god, that’s what I have to do to look like that.’ And then they go rush, and they do something silly.”

The star’s frank chat also included her addressing long-standing rumours about her sexuality – despite being in public relationships with stars including Harry Styles, Bad Bunny and Devin Booker.

“I understand that coming out is not an easy thing for anybody, if not most people, and I’m not saying it’s an easy thing” she said.

“But knowing, and I can speak for myself here, and knowing myself, I think at this point in my life I’d be out if I was.”

“I’m not saying it’s an easy thing. I’m just saying that knowing me and knowing how I would want to live my life, I would be,” she added.

“I’d have no problem being that.”

“All’s to say, as of today, I am not,” she later added, before noting: “I don’t think I will be, but I’m not closing doors to experiences in life.”

EAGLE-EYED Kylie Jenner fans have noted a huge new diamond on her finger – and are certain it’s an engagement ring.

According to fans, beauty mogul Kylie is engaged to her actor boyfriend Timothee Chalamet after spotting the dazzling sparkler in a new video.

She captioned it: “Got a fresh haircut don’t talk to meeeee.”

Fans took to TikTok to comment on the sassy video in which she’s swishing her long dark wavy hair.

Wearing a figure-hugging white vest top with a plunging neckline, the billionaire can be seen flicking her voluminous locks and giggling into the camera.

Applying lip gloss to her perfectly-preened face, the TV star rocked the ill-fitting giant diamond on her little finger.

MOVE OVER!

One user wrote: “It HAS to be an engagement ring because it’s too big to be fitted for her pinky.”

“Mrs. Chalamet has never looked this beautiful. A touch of happiness made her glow,” noted a second.

“Mrsssss Chalamet looking soooo good!!!!” agreed a third.

A fourth fan simply wrote: “Kylie Chalamet.”

“Anyone else notice that ring turns to the side?” noted another viewer.

“I see that diamond on the pinky,” observer a different user.

“Let me see the ring, Kylieeeee,” begged another.

Super-Influencer Kylie, 28, and Hollywood actor Timothee, 30, finally made their official red carpet debut as a couple in May last year.

The smitten pair, who have been dating since 2023, attended the 70th David di Donatello Awards in Rome, Italy together.

The U.S. Sun previously revealed that Timothee and Kylie have yet to commit to living under the same roof, preferring instead to split their time between NYC and Los Angeles. 

The Oscar-nominated star has a place in his native NYC as well as a $11 million house in Beverly Hills, while his billionaire Kardashian girlfriend has a $48 million mansion in nearby Holmby Hills. 

But things are stepping up a gear and he has made room for his long-term girlfriend at his NY pad.

Kylie, who has two children with rapper Travis Scott, has the keys to his place in New York, and her man has full access to her home.

An insider says she has ‘so many clothes and shoes’ there that Timothee has had to move some of his own stuff into storage to make some ‘extra room’.

According to the source, Kylie has been buying furniture, art and vases to make his city apartment feel more like a ‘love nest’ in her style.

The screen star has just scooped the Best Actor gong for his role as Marty Mauser in the recent Marty Supreme flick, beating the likes of Leonardo Di Caprio and Ethan Hawke to the accolade.

He directly addressed the Hulu star in his acceptance speech and said: “Thank you to my partner for three years.

“I love you. I couldn’t do this without you.

“Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

Married At First Sight star Leisha Lightbody has hinted that she has started dating a premiere league footballer but is keen to keep his identity under wraps as it’s still early days for the pair

Married At First Sight star Leisha Lightbody has shared with fans that she is dating a Premier League footballer, months after her split with show husband Reiss Boyce. The 32-year-old reality TV star had mentioned while on the show that she had been DM’d by a footballer while on the E4 show, but assured Reiss that she had told him she was in a relationship.

But now it looks as though her desire to be a WAG has finally come true. Although Leisha has remained tight-lipped over his identity, a source has said that she is “excited” over her new romance.

Posting a cryptic video on TikTok, followers only saw the shoulder of a man sitting next to her. She captioned the video saying: “Last plot twist of the year.” Now, it’s been claimed that Leisha is dating not just any footballer but a Premier League one.

A source told The Sun: “Leisha has spent the summer single but feels she’s finally ready to get into another relationship. It’s too early to tell whether this will work out, but she’s hopeful and excited to see what happens.” The added: “Leisha wants to keep his identity under wraps until she knows if it’s the real deal.”

Adding further fuel to the rumours, she tagged her location as Manchester. Explaining why she has chosen to keep her new beau’s identity a secret, she said: “I honestly can’t”. She went on to say: “We love and adore a man who knows what he wants.”

Earlier this month, Leisha was linked to Love Island star Jack Fincham. The pair reportedly shared a kiss at an event. One fan told her: “I really hope you’ve found someone that appreciates your excitement about the future and your intensity about life.”

In response, Leisha said: “Me too. Thank you so much. 2026, let’s pray.” Another fan said: “As long as you’re happy that’s all that matters.” And again Leisha said: “Yes I am happy. Neeeded the summer to be alone but now things are so good.”

Leisha was left devastated when she split with Reiss after the show. At the time of the commitment ceremony, the couple had decided to try to make it work in the outside world.

But after a few months, the pair failed to make it work after Reiss visited Leisha in Scotland, and they got into an argument while out and about. Soon after the split, Leisha claimed she still had unanswered questions.

In a chat with the Mirror: “When we left after final vows, I genuinely thought that we were in this fairytale and thought we were going to watch it back and it was going to be a magical thing, but actually, he didn’t like me as much as I thought.”

She added: “I honestly thought that he really did like me, and I’m not saying he didn’t, but obviously they picked up things that he said on camera that he didn’t necessarily say too much to me.” Leisha said she felt she had mixed feelings about Reiss.

She continued: “I’m not a body, I’m a human being, I’ve got feelings, I’ve got emotions, and I feel like there was just a lot of mixed emotions, and I think looking back, he probably just wasn’t emotionally available!”

IT’S rare for an X Factor star to still be around 16 years after losing what was once the biggest show on TV but Stacey Solomon played the long game – going on to become one of the busiest women in entertainment.

This year in particular has been huge for Stacey – having launched her own reality show and landing a spot judging on BGT – but insiders tell us the 36-year-old is struggling behind the scenes as she wades against the vicious turning tide.

The Sun has been told that mum-of-five Stacey is in panic mode as the negativity increases, desperate to get people back on side. 

A source revealed: “The bottom line is Stacey is no longer relatable. 

“People think she flaunts her wealth and moans all the time – now Stacey’s being advised to rein it in and shut her mouth or risk ruining everything she’s worked so hard for.

“The plan is for Stacey to go back to basics and remember who her audience is. No more bragging about expensive holidays and keeping in mind not everybody is in her position”

Stace cashed in on her relatable ‘ditzy’ personality and – instead of chasing a record deal – turned her attention to social media and the fast cash that comes with being an influencer. 

A Loose Women gig ensured she was always in the headlines while online posts sharing her tips and tricks for keeping a house going soon turned into something much more lucrative, releasing books and launching prime time BBC show Sort Your Life Out. 

She also signed with the BBC for the fly-on-the-wall series Stacey & Joe, which gave viewers a regularly uncomfortable insight into the ups-and-downs of her marriage to Joe Swash.

It has all helped determined Stacey, 36, build up an estimated net worth of £7.3million and live a comfortable life in a £1.3million Essex mansion she calls Pickle Cottage with Joe and her children. 

But nobody likes a show-off and Stacey’s girl-next-door mask has been slowly slipping for some time now, with fans turning on her for “flaunting her wealth”. 

Earlier this year she was branded “smug” after bragging about her latest family holiday to Turkey, which set her back a staggering £30,000 a WEEK. 

Not exactly the kind of holiday that most of Stacey’s followers – who ironically helped pay for the OTT break – can aspire to. 

And even Stacey’s crafting is becoming increasingly out of budget for the average person. 

Stacey shares Rex, six, Rose, four, and two-year-old Belle with Joe, 43. 

She is also mum to Zachary, 17, and Leighton, 13, from previous relationships. 

Creative Stacey left fans’ noses out of joint when she showed off homemade decorations for Belle’s birthday, revealing an incredible display of pink and red roses. 

Someone wrote: “Looks amazing….effective and dreamy..however I think the cost of flowers would be quite high for a lot of people… x.”

And another added: “Very expensive for the lay folk x.”

In another move which drew criticism, viewers of on Stacey & Joe were quick to notice her enthusiasm for plugging her private side-hustles – including fashion, homeware and perfume brands.

The repeated appearances of Stacey’s products, some seemingly laid out for the cameras, drew accusations that the show was breaching strict BBC rules against ‘talent’ promoting products on-screen.

PANIC MODE 

Stacey is someone who’s undoubtedly used to a bit of backlash here and there – a thick skin is required to survive in her industry. 

In May the ‘loveable’ and ‘goofy’ Stacey bared her teeth when she had an almighty diva tantrum over not winning a Bafta. 

Sort Your Life Out was nominated in the Entertainment category but lost out to Rob and Rylan’s Grand Tour. 

Stacey was furious – and didn’t hold back when she took to Instagram to share her thoughts. 

She said: “We didn’t win a Bafta. And I know I’m supposed to take it gracefully like a champ but, I’ll be honest, I’m devastated!

“I’m not handling it very well, I’m not taking it very gracefully – I’m devastated! I’m devastated for our whole team, like I’m so gutted for our team.”

And just months later she launched a blistering attack on the National Television Awards when Sort Your Life Out and her fly-on-the-wall Stacey & Joe were nominated in the same category.  

She told Magic Radio: “They’ve put Sort Your Life Out and Stacey & Joe in the same blummin’ category for some reason – we’re up against each other which is absolutely ludicrous.”

Our insider said: “Stacey’s been made aware the public aren’t fans of whinging – the Baftas meltdown was embarrassing and she came off as entitled.

“And the only thing she should’ve been was grateful when both of her shows were given nods at the NTAs.”

CAUSING TENSION

Stacey and ex-EastEnders star Joe tied the knot at Pickle Cottage in 2022 and the couple don’t shy away from airing their dirty laundry on their reality show. 

One scene on the most recent series showed them clashing after Joe allowed their kids to eat dinner on the sofa while Stacey was working away. 

During a tense phone call, a furious Joe branded his wife “out of order” before hanging up on her. 

Another episode saw Joe struggling with the chaotic school run while Stacey was on a luxury trip to Lake Como, Italy for a photoshoot. 

He didn’t hold back, confessing: “Stacey’s like the permanent teacher and I’m the substitute teacher that the kids just take advantage of.”

We’re told something else bubbling away is Stacey – who has six million Instagram followers to Joe’s two million – often left feeling like the backlash from the public is mainly aimed at her. 

A source said: “Things between her and Joe are tense at times because of the sudden unrelenting backlash.

“Stacey tells Joe she takes the brunt of the negativity and that he should be more understanding of the pressure she’s under.

“They love each other and their marriage is totally solid but when she wants to be Stacey can be cutting.

“On more than a few occasions a row has resulted in her telling him she’s sick of being the breadwinner – which is a real kick in the teeth for Joe.”

The couple now have the chance to take a break and reset over Christmas – although they are letting the cameras in to film a third series of their reality show.

And fans should expect a much more down-to-earth approach on the family show, with Stacey desperate to be seen as a relatable, hard-working mum once again.

MUSIC star Lily Allen has made a shock confession that she’s now in therapy for her addiction to spending.

The 40-year-old admitted that she can’t stop shopping after purchasing designer handbags and an £120,000 Porsche.

Following the success of her latest album, West End Girl, the singer has revealed that she has put herself into therapy over the last four months to cope with her spending habits.

Speaking on her podcast Miss Me? alongside co-host Miquita Oliver for a Christmas special episode, Lily opened up about EMDR therapy.

She said: “I actually did EMDR therapy yesterday on my spending and how it’s related to my sense of self-worth and we tried to separate the two. So let’s see how that goes.”

Lily admitted: “I think I try and get rid of it (money) because I don’t think I deserve it.”

Miquita later quipped: “What is EMDR again?

Lily replied: “EMDR therapy is a special type of therapy. There’s like, what do you call it? Like stimuli that stimulate the left side and the right side of your brain and basically try and create new pathways in relation to certain behaviours or traumatic experiences or traumatic interactions with certain human beings or anything really. 

“I started doing EMDR about four months ago, five months ago and it’s like been life changing. I just absolutely love it.

“I am not a doctor and I am not qualified to give that kind of advice but this is what is working for me currently,” she added.

Speaking about how the therapy works for her own addiction, Lily continued: “You usually start by sort of deciding on which area you’re gonna focus on during that session and then you visualise the experience. 

“If you’re trying to change your attitude towards a traumatic event, you try and think about how painful that event is from one to 10 and then you activate the stimuli, which in my case is these two vibrating balls that I put in each hand and you sort of close your eyes and put yourself in that situation and then try and identify what the feelings are that are coming up actually in your body, and in your mind. 

“And then you do that sort of five or six times and you find that the pain level associated with it goes down and down and down.

“If you’re trying to get rid of a negative behaviour like spending or drug taking or drinking or addiction to sex or whatever it is, you do the opposite.

“In my case a handbag, you try and separate yourself from thinking this handbag is going to make me a better person. Its really interesting type of therapy and I’m not clear on the science of how it works but its working for me so I’m very happy about it.”

Earlier in the episode Lily revealed she had bought herself “a little present”.

She said: “I’m just playing with my huge diamond and emerald ring, I bought myself a little present but it’s not that little.”

And earlier this week the star was snapped getting out of her new £120,000 porsche and £16,500 Hermes handbag in London.

Lily’s shopping revelation comes during a significant year for the star, who has launched new music widely described as a “revenge” album following her split from husband David Harbour. 

The record, West End Girl, draws on heartbreak and betrayal after Lily publicly accused the actor of cheating. 

Fans have praised the record for its raw honesty and cutting lyrics.

Singer Lily split from Stranger Things actor David, 50, in December 2024 and it was later reported that he’d had a three-year affair.

The details of her open marriage and split were laid bare on her 14-track West End Girl album.

On the album, Lily took aim at David and claimed how he allegedly ­bedded a woman called “Madeline”, which was later revealed to be single mum Natalie Tippett.

She came forward recently with a statement to categorically deny having a three-year affair with the actor.

ACTRESS Jessie Buckley has revealed she had given birth to her first child.

The 35-year-old star kept her pregnancy largely private and only confirmed she was expecting when she proudly posed with her baby bump on the red carpet back in April of this year.

Now, the star has revealed she is a mother after welcoming a child, a baby girl, earlier this year.

Jessie has confirmed her motherhood during promotion for her upcoming film, Hamnet.

The star has admitted in a new interview that she was longing to become a parent during the filming of the movie and eventually fell pregnant with her child shortly after it wrapped.

She was heard speaking on The New York Times‘ Modern Love podcast in which she detailed falling pregnant after playing the role of a grieving mother for the movie.

Jessie said: “I’m not surprised I got pregnant a week after I finished filming because I had coaxed… it was also quite intense to have that need while I was in this place of absolute mother and it not be a real thing yet.”

During the interview, she revealed she had welcomed a daughter when she opened up on what she hoped to pass onto her in the future.

Jessie added: “I think the thing I can hope to impart to her, and I’m sure she’s going to go on her whole own trajectory, and she should, is we have one life.

“There’s always going to be things in our life that are going to make us doubt or be afraid or feel like it would be safer to be smaller in some way.

“And I see this little life that’s so new but so full and so untarnished by an idea or a projection of what we’re supposed to be. And I just hope that if I can pass anything onto her in the way that my mother’s has passed on to me is that all the parts of you are not too much. 

“The world needs all of you, and that means incubating the struggles, is like living through the struggles, the shadows.

“The things that are going to challenge you, you have to metabolize it and incubate it. And there’s no too-muchness. It’s only to be lived fully.”

Jessie is notoriously private about her personal life and rarely discusses her life outside of acting.

She is understood to have got married in 2022 to a mystery man known only as Freddie.

According to reports he is a North London based mental health professional.

They are understood to divide their time equally between plush homes in London and Norfolk.

IF the Beckhams expected a heartwarming reunion with their oldest son for Christmas, they could be disappointed.

Recent efforts to reach out to estranged Brooklyn — who has been missing from all the family’s milestones this year — appear to have been met with a frosty reception.

It is fast approaching 12 months since the rift began, but David and Victoria remain optimistic that their icy relationship might still thaw.

The couple had plenty to celebrate in 2025, including David’s long-awaited knighthood and 50th birthday, and Victoria’s Netflix documentary and booming fashion and beauty brand.

However, 26-year-old Brooklyn was absent from them all. In fact, he has not been pictured with his family since Christmas last year.

This week, his brother Cruz, 20, tried to bridge the divide by sharing throwback snaps on Instagram. One showed Brooklyn with an arm around his youngest sibling on a beach in Brazil when they were little.

And last month, their grandmother Jackie left a sweet comment with a heart emoji under one of Brooklyn’s social media posts.

Overnight, David also shared an old snap of him winning the MLS Cup when he played for LA Galaxy.

But so far, Brooklyn has failed to respond. And his most recent online post made no mention of the rest of the Beckham clan.

He was the only member of the family not celebrating last week when David lifted the MLS Cup again — this time as co-owner of Inter Miami.

If the chance to hang out with the squad’s superstar striker Lionel Messi did not tempt him to turn up, few things will.

David and Victoria are not giving up on reconciling with Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30.

Speaking exclusively to The Sun, a Beckham insider tells us Victoria, who is also mum to Harper, 14, and Romeo, 23, is still struggling to make sense of the fallout.

But ever the showwoman, she is focusing on keeping things merry and bright for the rest of the clan.

We are told: “Victoria is determined not to let the argument with Brooklyn ruin Christmas, even though she is absolutely heartbroken by it.

“It’s been a year since they last all saw each other and it’s something she will never come to terms with.

“But she won’t let it get her down over the festive period as she needs to be strong, especially for Harper, as well as her parents and David’s parents.

“They have done nothing in all of this, but it seems like they’re the ones being punished the most.”

Last month, Victoria shared a photo of her mum Jackie’s fireplace adorned with stockings. Each bore the name of one of her grandchildren — including Brooklyn, who has reportedly cut his grandparents out of his life, too.

Days later, David’s mum Sandra left a comment under a festive social media post Brooklyn had shared. In it, he was seen wrapping up a bottle of his own hot sauce brand, Cloud23, to which Sandra replied, “That for me” alongside a heart emoji.

Her question went unanswered, but followers flocked to the comment section begging Brooklyn to reach out to his family before it’s too late.

One raged: “Go and see your parents . . . you only get one set and that’s it,” while another simply said, “Ring your mother!”

Victoria may be famous for not smiling, but now, in a bid to keep the family’s spirits up, she’s plastering on a big one.

Our source said: “Brooklyn spent so much time with her parents Jackie and Tony for the first few years of his life and they had such a special bond, while Sandra looked after him so much growing up. It’s awful they no longer have that close relationship.

“Harper really misses her big brother and Nicola. Victoria is hoping that Brooklyn at least calls his grandparents over Christmas. She’s given up on him calling her.”

We are told that, as usual, the family will spend Christmas Day surrounded by loved ones at their £12million Cotswolds pile.

“They feel it’s a case of the more, the merrier, as it’s then less obvious that Brooklyn isn’t there,” our source revealed.

It’s safe to say that no one could have predicted how bitter things would get this time last year. Granted, there had been simmering tensions between Brooklyn and Nicola and his family since their wedding in 2022.

At the time, there was confusion over Nicola’s decision to wear a Valentino gown instead of one designed by her mother-in-law. It was later claimed Victoria offered to dress her son’s bride, then backed out.

Deafeningly silent

Nicola was also apparently devastated at the reception when the Beckhams’ pal, singer Marc Anthony, referred to Victoria as “the beautiful woman in the room”.

Despite the rumoured tension that followed, Nicola and Brooklyn continued to represent the family brand for a while. But that support is gone.

In May, Brooklyn and Nicola — who live in a $16million Los Angeles mansion — failed to attend David’s birthday celebrations or even acknowledge his 50th online.

Insider

Brooklyn also did not wish his mum a happy birthday a month earlier, but posted gushing tributes to Nicola, including the pointed comment: “I always choose you, baby.”

Likewise, he stayed deafeningly silent when David was finally awarded his knighthood in June, and snubbed November’s investiture.

Brooklyn also failed to give a nod to Victoria’s Netflix documentary, Victoria Beckham, which came out in October. That month, she debuted her spring 2026 collection at Paris Fashion Week, again without her eldest son’s backing.

But by all accounts, Brooklyn’s biggest two-fingered salute to his parents had to be his very lavish, very loud, vows renewal in August.

According to insiders, he did not even tell them about the event, which was held at his in-laws’ mega-mansion in New York.

Nicola’s billionaire father Nelson Peltz presided over it, and the bride wore her mother Claudia’s wedding dress. The message was clear: They’ve officially jumped off the Beckham bandwagon.

To that end, there have even been whispers in recent weeks that Brooklyn and Nicola — who both go by double-barrelled Peltz-Beckham — are planning to drop the Beckham from their surname.

Nepo baby Brooklyn has long capitalised from his famous family name — and Nicola, who was not that well known before marrying him, has benefitted from it, too.

They don’t need the Beckham name any more and they would like any future babies to be Peltzes

Insider

Her family’s wealth, estimated at $1.7billion, may eclipse the Beckhams’ £500million fortune, but her in-laws’ social cache in showbiz circles has opened myriad doors to the aspiring actress and model.

But now it is feared they are determined to cut ties for good.

‘Ultimate insult’

An insider told Heat magazine: “They both feel their double-barrelled name is associated with the feud and they want to move on.

“They don’t need the Beckham name any more and they would like any future babies to be Peltzes.

“Obviously, it would be the ultimate insult to David and Victoria — they’ve spent nearly 30 years building up Brand Beckham and, if Brooklyn dropped the family name, there would be no going back.

“It feels like he’d be making their current estrangement permanent.”

Ironically, despite the documentary, plus TV and podcast chats, showing Victoria’s more authentic side, she is having to stay tight-lipped about her personal anguish.

However, amid the turmoil, she has been wowing the US, popping up on late-night talk show Watch What Happens Live and featuring on podcast Call Her Daddy.

The Beckhams famously lived in LA when David played football there but, while well received by the celebrity jet-set, they never fully found their footing, with Victoria still carrying the mantle of a WAG.

Now, though, the US is taking her seriously as a fashion designer, beauty impresario and a pop icon with a wicked sense of humour, which she would no doubt love to celebrate with her whole family.

After Christmas, we are told the Beckhams will head to Bath for Holly Ramsay and Adam Peaty’s wedding on the 27th.

They are long-time pals with the bride’s family — Gordon Ramsay, and his wife Tana, plus their six children. But while the Ramsays were all there to see Brooklyn and Nicola say “I do”, it’s unlikely they’ll return the favour.

The fact Olympian Adam’s mum Caroline is banned from the nuptials amid a fallout will no doubt resonate with David and Victoria.

Still, some Beckham fans reckon there is still hope of a reconciliation. Firstly, Brooklyn’s stocking on his grandma’s fireplace proves that he will always have a place in the family.

Then, Cruz’s memories of the siblings as kids may hint he is mellowing after backing his parents and, along with brother Romeo, unfollowing Brooklyn on Instagram.

He has also lashed out at whispers the row erupted as Romeo was dating Brooklyn’s ex, Kim Turnbull — rumours she strongly denied.

Still, the question remains: Will Brooklyn take his cue and bury the hatchet for good? All signs so far point to a stubbornness that’s set to continue into the new year.

Brooklyn has made it clear that Nicola is his priority and, with her also showing little interest in a reconciliation, Victoria knows rooting for a reunion could be futile.

Then again, there’s always hope of a Christmas miracle.

KATHERINE Ryan has revealed that she has had “serious cosmetic surgery” just eight weeks after giving birth to her fourth child.

The comedian and her husband Bobby Kootstra welcomed daughter Holland in October.

And Katherine, 42, says that the little one came along to the surgery, which took place in York – hours away from their London home.

Talking on her podcast, Telling Everybody Everything, Katherine said she is in “no pain” following the procedure.

Katherine explained: “I went to York, it was three and a half hours, I elected to take the baby with me because she just turned eight weeks that day and I’m still breastfeeding her, obviously, I will be for a long time.

“You can’t breastfeed immediately after surgery but I could obviously spend the night with her before and breastfeed her then.

“I was thinking to myself, after I got this surgery – which, wait until you see it, is pretty serious surgery – I was like, ‘Katherine Ryan what is your damage? What the f*** are you doing? Why have you brought a baby to surgery.’

“But then i thought, up and down this country, worldwide, everyday, we are giving women C-sections and then saying, ‘Sweet, go keep these twins alive’.”

Katherine clarified that a C section is “much more serious” than the procedure she had.

She joked: “So, what’s an elective cosmetic procedure with a newborn?”

Continuing that she is in “no pain”, Katherine said that while she’d like to share what procedure she has had done, it’s under wraps.

The comedian was joined by a filming crew who captured the whole thing for an upcoming docuseries.

She says there is more information coming soon on the show.

Katherine’s husband, Bobby, revealed in October that the comedian welcomed their newborn in just 45 minutes.

She appeared to have a speedy bounce back, as Bobby even shared a snap of the star enjoying a flute of prosecco in hospital following he birth,

Alongside baby Holland, Katherine and bobby share children Fenna, two, and three-year-old Fred.

The comedian is also a mum to 15-year-old Violet, who she has from a previous relationship.

CHARLOTTE Dawson has revealed that she is “stepping away” from her podcast, Naughty Corner.

It comes after a rocky few weeks for the TV personality, 33, following a split from her fiancé Matt Sarsfield and a subsequent reunion just days later.

Charlotte began her podcast in 2024 and often shares details from her family life on it.

Taking to Instagram, Charlotte shared a statement which read: “After an incredible year and more than a million downloads, we’ve decided it’s time to pause the podcast for now.

“With life being especially busy at the moment (kids, chaos and everything in between) this feels like the right moment to take a breather.”

She continued: “Naughty corner has been a place where I’ve shared my life and parenting journey, and it’s also been a place where your stories, whether beautiful, bonkers or everything in between, have lifted me up.

Earlier this month, The Sun revealed that Charlotte and her partner Matt had split after a blazing row on a night out, but reunited days later.

A friend of Charlotte told The Sun: “Charlotte is extremely apprehensive about marrying Matt.

“They’ve been engaged for five years but their relationship has been far from smooth sailing. Their latest explosive argument has planted further doubts in Charlotte’s mind.

“When they’re good, they’re good – but problems often arise when either one or both of them are out.

“They have blazing rows that, in the moment, make it seem impossible that they’ll make it down the aisle, but then they’ll kiss and make up.”

It’s the second time they’ve ended their nine-year relationship, having previously split in August last year after Charlotte found messages to other women on Matt’s phone.

The couple share three children; Noah, Jude and Gigi.

The Sun previously revealed how Charlotte’s family and friends have begged her to bin the shamed rugby star in the past.

Carl Carlton, the funk and R&B singer known for upbeat, era-embodying singles like “Everlasting Love” and “She’s a Bad Mama Jama (She’s Built, She’s Stacked)” has died. He was 72.

Carlton’s son, Carlton Hudgens II, posted to social media confirming the death on Sunday. “RIP Dad, Legend Carl Carlton singer of She’s a Bad Mama Jama. Long hard fight in life and you will be missed.” The post did not cite a cause of death.

Born Carlton Hudgens in Detroit in 1953, he debuted as “Little Carl” Carlton, but changed his stage name and moved to Houston after he was signed to the local label Back Beat Records. He had a minor soul-scene hit in 1971 with “I Can Feel It,” and broke through nationally in 1974 when his regal cover of Robert Knight’s “Everlasting Love” hit No. 6 on Billboard’s Hot 100 and spent 15 weeks on that chart.

Carlton is perhaps best known for his 1981 single, “She’s a Bad Mama Jama (She’s Built, She’s Stacked),” a grooving and awestruck ode to the female form that hit No. 22 on the Hot 100 and helped his self-titled album that year reach gold status.

The song has enjoyed a long life in popular culture — it’s been sampled by rappers like Foxy Brown, BigXThaPlug and Flo Milli, and frequently appeared on soundtracks for TV shows and films like “Friends.”

He continued releasing records into the ‘80s, and appeared several times on “American Bandstand” and “Soul Train,“ though his output slowed in the ‘90s. In 2003, he performed for Barry Glazer’s TV special, “American Soundtrack: Rhythm, Love, and Soul,” which featured Aretha Franklin and other marquee R&B and soul acts. His last album was 2010’s gospel LP “God Is Good.”
