Spare a thought for some Hollywood couples this time of year, who may not be having the best Christmas. It seems Miley and Liam could be heading to court to sort out their divorce (p16), and Victoria has put David on a booze ban over the party season (p64). And with Meghan and Harry not spending Christmas with the rest of the royals for the first time (p63), it seems any family issues we ‘normal’ people have – such as trying not to offend family members – are also a big deal for the most famous among us. If you need more proof this time of year can be tricky, check out the stars’ craziest gifts (p68). Luckily The Bachelor’s Matty J and Laura Byrne have it all sorted (p20).…

When it comes to love, age is just a number. Well, according to Leonardo DiCaprio’s girlfriend Camila Morrone, who recently spoke out about the 23-year age gap between her and the Oscar-winning Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actor. ‘There are so many relationships in Hollywood – and in the history of the world – where people have large age gaps,’ the Argentinian model and actress revealed. ‘I just think anyone should be able to date who they want to date.’ Camila, 22, and Leo, 45, got together at the end of 2017 and have been inseparable ever since. And while the actress, who’s set to star in upcoming film Mickey and the Bear, ignores any negative comments, she does understand her fans’ interest. ‘I probably would be curious about…

He sang it himself, that what goes around, comes around. And now Justin Timberlake has issued a public apology to his wife Jessica Biel, 37, after he was caught getting handsy with his Palmer co-star Alisha Wainwright, 30, at a New Orleans club back in November. It took Justin, 38, two weeks to apologise for his ‘strong lapse in judgement’. ‘I drank way too much that night and I regret my behaviour,’ he lamented. However, it seems his wife of seven years isn’t buying it – reportedly telling the dad-of-one to get therapy or they’re done! ‘Jessica feels only a professional can help them communicate at this point,’ tells an insider. THE EVIDENCE Fans were left shocked after Justin was snapped holding hands with his co-star in public.…

Prep work Pre-soirée, the objective is maximum luminosity – and a little goes a long way if you plan ahead!

From Jenna Dewan to Liam Hemsworth, veganism is quickly becoming the diet of choice for many of our hottest stars. And it’s not just celebs, with more and more of the rest of us also turning to veganism for health and ethical reasons. But how can you be sure that you’re getting all the nutrients you need? ‘I think vegan diets are seen as very popular and trendy at the moment,’ says Melanie McGrice, an advanced accredited practicing dietitian who specialises in fertility and pregnancy. She believes a major influence is social media – but that can also lead to misinformation. ‘A vegan diet can certainly be a very healthy diet, but you have to plan what you’re going to eat with so much more detail than you would with…

MARIAH CAREY Mariah’s, of course, synonymous with the most wonderful time of the year and her love of gift giving and receiving is all down to her mum Patricia. ‘My mother, now she was festive. She always wanted Christmas to be exciting,’ the 49-year-old diva recalls. ‘We didn’t always have enough money for a lot of presents, but she’d wrap up whatever she could – even an orange – and say it was from the cat or something, just so I could have things to open. I think that when kids are little, it’s really all about opening things; it doesn’t matter so much what they are. And my mother always made things very fun.’ BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH In a frank and open letter to Father Christmas, Doctor Strange star Benedict…

The actress, 31, and her Saturday Night Live director beau, 34, recently announced their engagement, with Dave posting a sweet snap of the pair and Emma’s new bling. The low-key couple have been an item since October 2017, but have only made a handful of public appearances since then. It’s perfect timing, with Emma revealing only last year her views on marriage and children had changed. ‘As a teenager, I was like, “I’m never getting married, I’m never having kids,”’ she shared. ‘And then I got older and I was like, “I really want to get married, I really want to have kids.”’ Congrats!…

Some of my favourite humans in the world struggle with anxiety every day, and I’m the first to admit I’ve been too ignorant to help them. It’s a crippling feeling – a range of fears and roadblocks I used to naively disregard as an annoying state of mind you should just bloody get over, before learning its true, powerful, life-shattering effects. These days, I’m certainly no expert as my education has a long way to go, but the one thing I do know is practising patience and lending a wholehearted ear can go some way in helping your treasured ones let you into their private worlds. It’s why I especially love this issue’s feature on the topic (p48), and all the awesome celebrities who’ve shared their own experiences and wisdom.…
