The dating game is always a tricky one to manoeuvre, isn’t it? While I’m no longer single, I can recall all the highs and heartbreaks of it and certainly don’t envy the likes of Lady Gaga, who finds herself in a tangled web with Bradley Cooper (p14). What I do miss, however, are those first-date butterflies and the giddy feeling you get when you finally meet someone you really click with. Here at OK! HQ we’re thrilled to learn Jennifer Aniston is ready to date again, and this time she’s setting her own rules for love. After all the heartbreak Jen’s experienced, she’s hopeful she’ll find The One – and so are we! She’s even rekindling her romance with crooner John Mayer to see if the spark they once shared…

The Spice Girls reunion has been thrown into turmoil, following Melanie Brown’s bombshell that she slept with fellow band mate Geri Horner at the height of their success. Insiders say that Geri, 46, is furious with the mum-of-three, who made the claims in a recent interview with Piers Morgan. ‘It just happened,’ said Mel, 43. ‘She’s going to kill me and so is her husband.’ The feud couldn’t have happened at a worse time for the pair, who are set to go on tour within a few weeks. ‘Mel insists it’s true, but Geri says she’s blown it out of proportion and needs to keep her mouth shut,’ an insider shares.…

The last few months haven’t been easy for Britney Spears. In January, the 37-year-old singer put her Vegas residency on hold indefinitely to spend time with her sick father, Jamie. And a source says the stress of the situation is also putting a toll on her two-year relationship with Sam Asghari. According to the source, Britney’s been itching for a proposal from Sam, 25, but since he needs her father’s approval first – Jamie is still Britney’s conservator – he doesn’t think the timing is right. ‘Sam wants to wait until they’re on a more  grounded path, but his stalling has made her nervous that it’s never going to happen,’ explains the source. ‘The growing view is that Sam needs to propose now or risk Brit walking away, though there’s…

A formidable force on Game of Thrones, Emilia Clarke was all too close to having her ‘childhood dreams’ of becoming an actress tragically quashed. In a touching essay she penned for The New Yorker, Emilia, 32, reveals she suffered two ‘painful’ life-threatening brain aneurysms after filming the fantasy series’ first season. ‘On the morning of February 11, 2011, I was getting dressed in the locker room of a gym… when I started to feel a bad headache coming on,’ she writes. ‘For the next three hours, surgeons went about repairing my brain. This would not be my last surgery, and it would not be the worst. I was 24 years old.’ When she finished filming GoT season three, Emilia underwent a second surgery after a growth on her brain had…

The campaign for A Star is Born is long over, and the Oscars are done and dusted – but Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper just can’t quit each other.

Blake Shelton never realised how much he would enjoy dad life until he grew close to girlfriend Gwen Stefani’s three boys. ‘At this point in my life, I kind of had put [having kids out of my mind], like, “Well, that wasn’t meant to be,’” the country singer admitted a year ago. At 42, he’s already been married and divorced twice with no kids to show for it. ‘Then all of a sudden, it happens one way or another, and it’s like, ‘Wow, I missed out on a lot.’ Having [Kingston, 12, Zuma, 10, and Apollo Rossdale, five] around… I don’t even know how to describe it. It’s so much fun.’ And Gwen, 49, knows Blake would love nothing more than to have a child of his own, but the…

They say nothing breaks like a heart. And for those who’ve experienced the grief of losing love, the pain can be so strong that it feels almost physical. What’s more, it may not be just a figment of your imagination. Studies have shown that the part of your brain that lights up when you’re hurting reacts similarly when you suffer a social rejection. And because being in love releases a surge of feel-good chemicals in your body, it’s also been found that brain scans of people experiencing heartbreak look an awful lot like those going through drug withdrawal. Self-confessed ‘love addict’ Jennifer Lopez says the pain became all too real when her relationship with Ben Affleck, 46, ended just four days before they were supposed to wed back in 2004.…

You know him as Jughead Jones, the brooding writer in Netflix’s hit teen drama Riverdale, but Cole Sprouse has been exercising his acting chops for longer than he can remember. The 26-year-old and his twin brother Dylan entered show business at just eight months old, eventually fronting their own Disney show The Suite Life of Zack and Cody. Then, in 2011, Cole did what most young stars wouldn’t dream of at the height of their popularity – he enrolled at New York University to study archaeology. ‘I tried to find my own little path through the world outside of acting,’ says Cole, who was lured back to acting when his manager approached him about Riverdale. As fate would have it, his 2017 TV comeback led him to Lili Reinhart –…

When many of us start an action-packed new gym routine, we hope to see a few weight-loss results. So there’s nothing more disheartening than to find the numbers on the scales have stalled… or even risen. But that’s definitely no reason to give up! There are plenty of reasons why you may not be shredding the way you want – and some of them are quite surprising! 1 Under-eating While crash dieting may bring results in the short run, it can work against you. ‘A large drop in calories will, of course, cause weight loss, but it’s not sustainable in the long run and may cause weight re-gain or yo-yo dieting,’ explains sports dietitian Leanne Ward. ‘The key to successful and sustainable weight loss is to only drop your daily…
