He demanded the problems be sorted and sacked four of the production staff.” Cameron, 50, meanwhile, “hates drama and confrontation.

Celebrity news $150K WORTH OF FLOWERS If there’s one thing Australia’s favourite shock jock Kyle Sandilands is known for, it’s his lack of subtlety. And that includes his upcoming wedding!

Royal news It’s Megxit 2.0! If there’s anyone who knows what it’s like to have a highly public fallout with your brother and sister-in-law, it’s the Princess of Wales.

Chet Hanks Tom Hanks’ troubled son Chet has been open about his struggles with addiction and mental health issues. He’s discussed growing up in the shadow of his father’s fame, the trauma of being sent to a teen wilderness camp where, like Paris Hilton, he was subject to abuse and isolation, and then finally rebuilding his life by getting sober and working as a mindset fitness coach. But the self-confessed “black sheep” of the Hanks family, 32, is still causing controversy, with US comedian Eric Andre recently saying Chet “broke” his crew while filming a guest spot on The Eric Andre Show. “He stole a motorcycle and rode it around. He almost knocked a bunch of grips and gaffers off their ladders. It was very dangerous,” Eric, 39, said, later…
