Woman's Own July 8, 2013

You’ll have seen on our cover that Linda Robson is worrying about her weight again, and she’s not the only one. Dawn French has recently admitted to putting on 3st, while Lisa Riley’s weight appears to yo-yo too. True, they’ve all been slimmer, but here at Woman’s Own we reckon they may have now found their ‘happy weight’ – the point where their bodies have settled at a manageable size and they can eat a little more of what they fancy. We think they all look simply gorgeous!…

Beaded lady Cheryl Cole, 30, proves long dresses are far from dull in this figure-hugging fishtail number. Cleverly placed beading accentuates her enviously petite frame. Simply does it Victoria Beckham, 39, adds drama to her minimal black jumpsuit with a low back. Extra fashion points for her on-trend metallic clutch. Peekaboo Actress Eva Longoria, 38, opts for a mermaid-style frock and shows how a side split and clever cutouts can flaunt without revealing too much. Fancy floral Marion Cotillard, 37, really is the French style queen in this gown. The actress’s sleek hair and nude accessories let the dress do the talking. Dare to bare Kym Marsh, 37, is not afraid to show off her tattoos in this glitzy showstopper. A high ponytail emphasises the statement plunging back to the…

CONGRATULATIONS! Gillian Taylforth’s boyfriend Dave Fairbairn has popped the question and she’s said yes! A friend of the former EastEnders actress, 57, has said, ‘Gillian is delighted, she is so in love. She found it hard to find love again after splitting with Geoff [Knights, her ex], but couldn’t be happier now.’ Gillian’s been dating Dave for a year. He is known as one of the country’s biggest drug barons, and once served a seven-year prison sentence. He was arrested last month on suspicion of assaulting a police officer and drink-driving – though it clearly hasn’t put Gill off!

She worked so hard to drop four dress sizes last year but, as these pictures show, Linda Robson’s relaxed her diet and gained 2st. The Loose Women panellist posed happily for pictures at the wedding of her eldest daughter Lauren, 30, in Cyprus, but recent images are a stark contrast to those of Linda last year when she lost 3½st on the LighterLife diet. During the two-week trip, Linda, 55, admitted her diet was the last thing on her mind, tweeting about fry-ups, ‘a lovely curry’ and posting a picture of herself and her family at a restaurant, captioned, ‘Now gonna stuff our faces.’ So inspiring Linda revealed her slimmed-down figure last year after going from 14st 7lb to 11st after being inspired by lifelong friend Pauline Quirke, who lost…

Nigella Lawson looked pale and drawn when she was seen out just days after shocking images were published showing her husband apparently grabbing her by the throat. The domestic goddess, who has been renting a £10,000 week flat, cut a haunted figure as she was spotted without her wedding ring. More than a tiff Nigella, 53, has kept quiet about the events, while her husband of 10 years, Charles Saatchi, 70, released a statement claiming his actions were merely a ‘playful tiff’. He later accepted a police caution, saying, ‘I thought it was better than the alternative of this hanging over all of us for months.’ Charles has made no public apology to his wife for his actions, and a spokesperson for Nigella did not wish to comment on Charles’…
