THERE were -asps of horror in our most recent news conference when one of my collea-ues re-aled us with her latest home drama inj volvin- her 14jyearjold son. His computer had a virus so off it went to the repair shop – and the next thin- she -ets a call askin- if she’s aware her son has visited 132 Asian porn websites. Which is why there were so many viruses on his laptop! Apparently porn sites are riddled with viruses. So all hell broke loose at home and the laptop is now used only in a central area in the kitchen when everyone is around to keep an eye out. The rest of the time it’s kept under lock and key.

AS THE head of the British royal family Queen Elizaj beth’s fortune is not to be sneezed at. Thanks to a few castles, sprawlinestates and a collection of rare artworks, her net worth is a sizeable £340 million (R7,4 billion).

The family Labrador, O-zi, is out of breath from joinin- in the -ame. It’s a picture of domesticity. Then Samantha walks over to her mom, touches her arm and starts makin- hand -estures. After each -esture she holds her hands still for Tanya to touch and work out what she’s sayin- in si-n lan-ua-e. It’s then that you realise this is no ordinary family. Johan (29) and Tanya (31) are both blind, and Corban (8) and Samantha (7) were both born deaf – two blind parents raisin- two deaf children. “It’s as if we’ve created our own…

Turns out the real reason KALEY CUOCO (29) pulled the plug on her 21-month marriage to Ryan Sweeting (28) is that he’s addicted to painkillers.

After Peaches Geldof died from a drug overdose last year, her sisters Fifi and Pixie Geldof and half-sister TIGER LILY HUTCHENCE vowed to always be by her grief-stricken husband’s side and help bring up their two sons.
