OHMYGOSSIP — Tyger Drew-Honey thinks it’s “really lovely” Claire Skinner and Hugh Dennis have found love together.
The ‘Outnumbered’ co-stars, who played Pete and Sue Brockman on the BBC show for almost a decade, started dating last year after both of their marriages broke down and the 22-year-old actor – who plays their screen son Jake – couldn’t be happier for them.
He said: “They’re actually really happy. It’s not just for the Press. It’s genuine, real and looks like proper love.
“Obviously their marriages broke down at the same time and then, a year later, they managed to find this thing.
“It’s really lovely.”
And Tyger admitted everyone involved witht he show is delighted for the couple.
He added: “I’ve been working with them for so many years. It’s nice for everyone – the crew and cast – because there’s obviously 50 or 60 people who’ve known them playing a couple and are now seeing them being together for real.”
Hugh, 56, previously admitted he and Claire, 53, are “so very happy” together.
He said: “I am very, very happy, we are so very happy. It’s nice and yes, it’s so lovely.”
The pair are believed to live together in the £1.2 million London penthouse flat Hugh bought after he and his second wife, Kate Abbot-Anderson, split in 2015.
Claire broke up with her husband Charles Palmer two and a half years ago and she and Hugh reportedly started dating over a year ago.
A friend said: “They are very much in love and have been for the last year. It’s the most wonderful love story, they found one another at the right time in their lives and it’s all rather sweet.
“Over the past few weeks there has been some talk within the acting world of them being an item.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Ariana Grande reportedly made the “final decision” to part ways with fiancé Pete Davidson.
The 25-year-old singer and the ‘Saturday Night Live’ star were reported over the weekend to have called time on their romance following their June engagement, which came after less than one month of dating.
And sources have now said the decision was made by Ariana, who is believed to have been left “emotionally unavailable” by the tragic death of her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller in September.
An insider said: “Ariana made the final decision. It was time to realise this wasn’t the right time for them and Pete is incredibly heartbroken. Pete is still is so in love with her. He wanted his whole world to revolve around her but she was emotionally unavailable. He realises she was at her limit with pressure from everyone and everything around her. There were days she just wanted to run away from the world just to get some peace and quiet and piece of mind. Pete had to give her that space out of love.”
The former couple are still “deeply in love” with one another, but the ‘No Tears Left To Cry’ hitmaker – who recently revealed she was taking a break from music to “take care” of herself – is said to need “time to heal”.
The source added: “Ariana and Pete didn’t plan this abrupt split, but they both know this breakup is the right decision for them right now. Their family and friends stand behind their decision entirely and Ariana’s team feels this will give her time to heal.
“They got engaged because they both felt this instant connection and even now after their split they are still deeply in love. But their timing has truly affected their plans and made it impossible for them to make it work at the moment … They have a very special connection, partly because Pete has been there for Ariana during a painful time in her life. She will forever and always be grateful to Pete.”
Ariana and Pete, 24, have “not stopped talking” since making the decision to split, and sources suggest the pair could reconcile in the future.
Speaking to ‘Entertainment Tonight’, the source said: “They have not stopped talking since they made the decision to split and in fact they plan on trying to stay close friends or maybe one day even more than that. They are remaining positive and looking forward to a future together where they may be best friends and still haven’t ruled out the possibility of one day making their relationship work.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Chrissy Teigen is working on a cookbook for kids.
The 32-year-old model recently released her second recipe book, ‘Cravings: Hungry For More’, as the sequel to her first tome ‘Cravings: Recipes for All the Food You Want to Eat’ – which was released in 2016 – and has said her cooking bug hasn’t gone away, as she’s now looking to pen a book of recipes designed specifically for children.
Chrissy – who is the mother of Luna, two, and Miles, four months, whom she has with her husband John Legend – said: “I really wanna make it awesome. I know kids have really simple palates and we all want to make them more refined, but they’re just kids, so we’re gonna do stuff that kids are going to love.”
The ‘Lip Sync Battle’ star is looking to her Twitter followers for inspiration, as she asked them to tweet her with dishes they’d like to see included, and said she hopes the book wins over her daughter.
Speaking during her #CRAVINGSFEST event at the New York City Wine and Food Festival over the weekend, she said: “It’s going to be so good. Hopefully it’s Luna-approved.”
One recipe that could make it into the tome is her Thai Soy-Garlic Fried Ribs, as she previously listed the dish as her daughter’s favourite.
When asked if Luna had any input on her recently released book, Chrissy said last month: “Her favourite recipe is the Thai Soy-Garlic Fried Ribs. The picture in the book where she’s eating one, I think that was her ninth rib or something! It was all over her face. It makes me so happy because there’s this little kid loving these fried chunks of bitter black garlic on these soy sauce ribs, and it’s her favourite thing on the planet. So she is very much her mother’s daughter. Forget cakes or desserts or cookies; she’d much rather have, like, a second go at pasta.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Hilary Duff is trying to induce labour by eating salad.
The 31-year-old actress is expecting a daughter with her boyfriend Matthew Koma, and took to social media over the weekend to reveal she’s so desperate to welcome her tot into the world that she’s taken to munching on a special salad which has been said to induce labour.
Posting a picture of the salad – which was purchased from Caioti Pizza – on her Instagram Story, Hilary wrote: “This salad is supposed to make you go into labor…@caioti_pizza don’t let me down. (sic)”
And the restaurant in question claim the secret is in the “dressing”, though no-one is exactly sure what goes into the “special herbs mix” that makes pregnant women start having contractions.
An employee told E! News: “We do have a salad that supposedly makes people go into labor. They say it’s in the dressing, which is just a balsamic and there are special herbs that make women have contractions and go into labor. None of the servers know what exactly is in the ‘special herbs’ mix, only the kitchen knows.
“It’s true that women have eaten this salad – called The Salad – and gone into labor, it’s what Caioti Pizza is known for. There is a whole baby board on the wall and there are at least 15-20 pregnant women a day who come in to order the salad. The ingredients in The Salad are romaine, water cress, Gorgonzola and walnuts with balsamic dressing and the special herbs. It costs $13.95 for a full and $10.95 for a half.”
The ‘Younger’ star – who already has six-year-old son Luca with her ex-husband Mike Comrie – announced her pregnancy in June, and said earlier this month she was “over” being pregnant.
She said: “Honestly, I feel really good and I am a little over it at this point where I am like, ‘Cool, I’m ready, when is it happening?’ But it is awesome to have another kid to focus on because you’re not constantly focusing on every little ache and pain you feel or anything that happens. I am not on Google right away like I was the first time around. I know what is going on.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Joe Swash has had his car broken into.
The 36-year-old television presenter took to Twitter on Monday (15.10.18) to slam a group of “boys” who broke into his car whilst he was enjoying a day out with his 11-year-old son Harry – whom he has with ex-wife Emma Sophocleous – and stole his passport, along with Harry’s school bag.
He wrote on the social media site: “To the boys who rob my car whilst I was go-karting with my son it is all over CCTV so please could you return My passport and more importantly you stole my sons school bag which had his project in that he has been working very hard on I need very upset #dotherightthing (sic)”
The former ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ winner had previously taken to Instagram to share a snap of himself with his son after their weekend together.
He captioned the picture: “#saturdaynight Go karting with my son (sic)”
Joe also posted a second photo of himself with Harry, along with another young boy, after a “fun” day out at Highbury Fields.
He wrote: “Park life with the boys today at Highbury Fields! #sundayfun (sic)”
Meanwhile, the former ‘EastEnders’ actor recently moved in with his girlfriend Stacey Solomon – who has sons Zachary, 10, and Leighton, six, from previous relationships – and the star said she’d love to have a child with Joe once they’re settled in their new home.
She said: “I would like more children but I want it to be the right time. We’d like to be in the house for a year or two and make sure the kids are happy.
“We are so privileged that we’ve got children already so if it didn’t happen, it wouldn’t be the end of the world. As long as everyone is secure, we can start thinking about it.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Nicole Kidman’s marriage to Tom Cruise stopped her from “being sexually harassed”.
The 51-year-old actress – who is now married to Keith Urban – tied the knot with 56-year-old Tom in 1990 and adopted two children, 25-year-old Isabella and 23-year-old Connor, before their split over a decade later in 2001.
And whilst Nicole is “reluctant to talk about” her marriage to the ‘Mission: Impossible’ star because it feels “disrespectful” now she’s married to Keith, she does admit Tom’s status helped to protect her whilst she was a young star in Hollywood.
She said: “Being married to Tom Cruise at 22 is something I’m always reluctant to talk about, because I’m married now to the man who is my great love [Keith Urban], and it almost feels disrespectful. That said, I got married very young, but it definitely wasn’t power for me – it was protection.
“I married for love, but being married to an extremely powerful man kept me from being sexually harassed. I would work, but I was still very much cocooned. So when I came out of it at 32, 33, it’s almost like I had to grow up.”
But despite her protection, the ‘Big Little Lies’ star – who has Sunday, 10, and Faith, seven, with Keith – says she still experienced her “share of #MeToo moments.”
Speaking to the October issue of New York magazine, she added: “But do I want to expose them in an article? No. Do they come out in my work? Absolutely. I’m open and raw. I want to have my well of experience and emotion tapped into – used, and I’m not just talking about sexual harassment. I’m talking about loss, death, the full array of life. But it has to be by the right people so it’s not abused again.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Justin Bieber is said to be “extremely upset” following the news that his former flame Selena Gomez is seeking treatment for an “emotional breakdown”.
The 26-year-old singer suffered a panic attack after being hospitalised for a low white blood cell count, and her former boyfriend Justin – who is thought to be married to Hailey Baldwin – has been left devastated by the news.
A source said: “This was his first great love and while he was young and traveling around the world as a superstar, he learned a great deal from her.
“He was extremely upset over what has happened to Selena. He feels like she is part of his life and he wants her to happy and healthy.”
The ‘Sorry’ hitmaker, 24, was seen crying in his car whilst out with Hailey last week, but sources insist that had nothing to do with Selena’s condition.
They added to People magazine: “Hailey makes him super happy. He feels bad that Selena isn’t doing well, but that has nothing to do with his gloomy mood a few days ago.”
Selena – who underwent a kidney transplant last year – has been hospitalised twice in the last two weeks, with the first coming after she became despondent and emotional when she was revealed to have had an “alarmingly low” white blood cell count.
Sources said at the time that a family member took Selena to Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre in Los Angeles, and though the ‘Wolves’ singer was released a few days later, she was readmitted late last week because her low blood cell count hadn’t changed and it had sent Selena into a downward emotional spiral.
The ‘Bad Liar’ singer hasn’t been seen in public for a few weeks and recently told fans she was taking another break from social media.
She wrote on Instagram: “Taking a social media break. Again. As much as I am grateful for the voice that social media gives each offs, I am equally grateful to be able to step back and live my life present to the moment I have been given. Kindness and encouragement only for a bit! Just remember -negative comments can hurt anybody’s feelings. Obvi. (sic)”

OHMYGOSSIP — Natalie Portman has urged Hollywood to stop calling women “crazy”.
The 37-year-old actress spoke out about sexual harassment, equal pay, and representation when she appeared as an honouree at Variety’s Power of Women summit over the weekend, and said Hollywood should stop allowing men to “discredit” women’s reputations by branding them as “difficult”.
She said: “Stop the rhetoric that a woman is crazy or difficult. If a man says to you that a woman is crazy or difficult, ask him, ‘What bad thing did you do to her?’ … That’s a code word. He’s trying to discredit her reputation. Make efforts to hire people who’ve had their reputations smeared in retaliation.”
The ‘Black Swan’ star – who has kids Aleph, seven, and 19-month-old Amalia with her husband Benjamin Millepied – also spoke about the importance of diversity, and said people should be “embarrassed” if everyone in their workplace looks the same as them.
She added: “If any group you’re in has only people who look like you, change that group. It’s an awakening experience to hear from women who have different experiences of marginalisation … Be embarrassed if everyone in your workplace looks like you. Pay attention to physical ability, age, race, sexual orientation, gender identity.”
And the ‘Annihilation’ actress gave advice on how to deal with those who “abuse their power”, saying people shouldn’t be afraid to make them face “consequences”.
She said: “Don’t shy away from consequences for those who abuse their power. [They’re] not going to have a change of behaviour out of the goodness of their hearts. Do not harm women this year. Let’s see how that goes.”
The beauty is known for her activism, and recently revealed her definition of abuse has changed in light of the #MeToo movement.
Speaking earlier this month, she said: “It was amazing how many things that I didn’t even categorise as abusive behaviour.
“I just thought it was [something that] made me really upset or made me uncomfortable. And now I think all of this reckoning has made me even be like, ‘Oh that wasn’t just a bad date, that was an abusive date’, ‘That wasn’t just an uncomfortable meeting, that was an abusive meeting’… And has made me look at things differently and hopefully it’ll prevent this kind of behaviour when people are, men and women, are more aware of that.”

OHMYGOSSIP — John Cena is keeping his dating habits to himself.
The 41-year-old WWE star was formerly engaged to fellow wrestler Nikki Bella before the pair called it quits in April this year, and after several rumours of a reconciliation, John has said he’s now “keeping busy”, and isn’t looking to share information on his current love life with anyone else.
When asked by ‘Entertainment Tonight’ if there’s any hope of the duo getting back together, he said: “That’s information for me. That’s a good question. I appreciate you asking. You’re probably worried about me. What does he do in his spare time? I’m keeping busy, man. I’m keeping busy. That’s information I’m gonna keep with me.”
Last month, however, 34-year-old Nikki wasn’t so coy about her love life, as she said she’s “single but not ready for mingling yet.”
She added: “I think it’s happiness, and just fully being happy and that’s what I want. I just feel like I’m at that age where I’m discovering who I really am and what I want out of life and just, like, independence. It is scary and you do have these moments of like, ‘What am I doing?’ – and fear. I just kind of am liking the challenge.”
The brunette beauty thinks it’s important she learns how to love herself before she dates again.
She explained: “It was quite a journey to really love myself. But I think when you go through so much, I don’t want to say hate but criticism, it makes you do two things: You can even go in a way to please other people or you can take a good look at yourself and go, ‘This is who I am. This is how I was made and I’m going to love it. And I’m just going to shine that confidence through.’ You’re better in a relationship when you fully have that self-love and love yourself and know who you are because then you’re just so confident in that relationship.”
And although the pair are no longer together, Nikki recently revealed the pair are still close friends who share an “amazing connection”.
She said: “We are [the best of friends] I think it’s when you have an amazing connection with someone and you just stay friends.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kendra Wilkinson is “proud of herself” after signing her divorce papers.
The 33-year-old television personality put pen to paper on her last divorce paper in her ongoing split from husband Hank Baskett – with whom she has eight-year-old son Hank IV, and four-year-old daughter Alijah – and has taken to social media to share the “brutal” news with her followers.
She wrote: “Signed my last divorce paper Friday. Brutal. . I gave it all i got. Truly did. Im beyond proud of myself!! Fought to save til the last second. Oh well. Life goes on. Bye lol (sic)”
The ‘Kendra on Top’ star had previously revealed she was finding it tough to “heal” following her split from the former American footballer, whom she married in 2009.
She said: “Just when I think I’m healed, I start to cry. Sorry I’m not a perfect person. I’m really sorry.”
She later posted a separate photo on her story which claimed that “#DivorceSucks (sic)” after finding herself doing some summer cleaning in her home.
She added: “Maybe now is the time for a dating app just to help me with my garage. Left in the dust like … I need a man please. Wait no I don’t.”
Kendra filed papers to divorce Hank in April, and it was previously claimed she is keen to get the process finished with as she’s eager to move on with her life.
An insider said: “Kendra and Hank’s divorce is not final yet. It has been a back and forth process and they have been sorting out the custody limitations and agreements, which is prolonging the situation.
“She understands that a divorce in general takes a great amount of time to process, but is completely over it, [and wants it] to be done and over with.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Keira Knightley’s three-year-old daughter cursed after their car was almost involved in a crash.
The 33-year-old actress has Edie with her husband James Righton, and has revealed that the tot let out the bad word in a very “polite” manner after her father was forced to slam the brakes on their car to avoid a collision with another vehicle.
Edie famously cursed for the first time on the night controversial candidate Donald Trump won the 2016 US presidential election, and Keira insists those two occasions are the only times her daughter has shown her bad side.
The ‘Colette’ actress said: “It was one of those country roads where it’s a blind corner, and suddenly there’s another car coming. The brakes got put on and there wasn’t a crash, but there was a silence just afterwards and this little voice went, ‘Daddy, is that when you say f**k?’
“It was very polite. Other than that, she has never said any – there’s not been any swear words. So it’s just twice, and both times perfectly.”
Neither Keira or 35-year-old James – who wed in 2013 – have yet told their tot what the bad word means, as they don’t know what to say.
She added: “What do you say? We’ve tried! We haven’t laughed. We’ve just ignored the situation.”
Aside from her occasional sailor’s mouth, the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ actress says her daughter is “phenomenal”.
She gushed: “She’s great in every way. She’s obviously a genius, and obviously the best child in the entire world. And very well made. But yeah, I’m very lucky. She’s great. She’s totally great.”
And although she has a good grasp on bad language, she hasn’t quite worked out how famous her A-List mother is.
Speaking to People magazine, Keira said: “I think she just thinks that everybody’s mum is probably in pictures. It doesn’t really strike her as anything weird.”

The news comes after the couple arrived in Australia on Monday (15.10.18) for their first major international tour since getting married.
The news comes a few months after Harry, 33, joked he didn’t want a large family.

She added: “He laughed and said ‘five children? Too many.’ ”
But the 36-year-old former actress’ father Thomas Markle previously revealed his daughter has wanted a baby of her own for a “long time.”
He said: “She’s wanted children for a long time. When she met Harry and she spoke about how much she loves him… there’s got to be a child in the making there soon.
