A series of explosive new claims have been made about Britney Spears – including drugs allegations – and it turns out they are reportedly coming from her own friends and family.The sensational claims have come from documentary maker Daphne Barak, who spoke to Britney’s family while working on a project about the singer’s life. She recently wrote a tell-all article about the star, which included Britney’s ex-husband Kevin Federline’s concerns that she is addicted to crystal meth.But Britney isn’t taking the new scandal lightly, and swiftly took to Instagram to deny the allegations, saying, “The fact that people are claiming things that are not true is so sad.”Now, our insider says the singer is devastated by what she sees as another attack on her from her own family.

Jennifer Aniston already has her own haircare brand (unsurprisingly, given that she’s got one of the best barnets in Hollywood), but it seems that the actor, 54, is now intent on expanding her horizons in a bid to take over the wellness market.As fitness brand and studio Pvolve’s newest ambassador, Jen’s vision is to create a workout and wellness programme that works for people of all ages – and to offer something very different to Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop.“Jen’s really throwing herself into this new venture– she really believes in it and wants all her A-list contacts in LA to spread the word,” an insider tells heat.“All her friends – the Batemans, Courteney Cox, and other Team Aniston loyalists – think she’s onto something special that people will really care about, and they’re behind her all the way.”However, there is one person who isn’t so thrilled about Jen’s new venture –OG wellness queen and former friend of Jen-An, Gwyneth Paltrow. “It’s a bit of a sore point,” says the source.“Gwyneth is worried she’ll be relegated to being a glorified smut peddler.” Er, maybe putting “prostate stimulators” on your Father’s Day gift list wasn’t the best idea?But we’re told Jen’s ploughing on with the project regardless.

The Beckhams have been busy living it up in Tokyo recently, and with a load of family milestones lined up, our source says Posh is putting her party planning hat on as she gets ready for a year of celebrations.Once again winning the prize for the coolest parents ever, Victoria, 49, and David Beckham, 48, treated youngest children Cruz, 18, and Harper, 11, to a lavish Japanese getaway last week, posing with geishas and visiting traditional tea rooms. And with one holiday down, we’re told more is to come.

This time a year ago, we’d never have believed Victoria Beckham and her daughter-in-law Nicola Peltz would be cuddling up for family photos, wearing matching outfits and even cheers-ing matching drinks.But last week the former rivals made it clear they’d put any animosity behind them as they shared “the most beautiful week” together, swapping love-heart emojis and kisses all over Instagram. And heat has been told that the fashion designer is determined she’ll never let anything fracture the Beckham brand again…“The family want to appear as one big, happy unit,” says an insider close to the former Spice Girl, who along with husband David, 48, is mum to Brooklyn, 24, Romeo, 20, Cruz, 18, and 11-year-old Harper.“Vic started this year determined to get Brooklyn back in the heart of the family – Nicola, too.

He’s taking home £230k per week playing for Manchester City, who – it’s fair to say – have had a blinder of a season. So, with his booming bank balance and the fact that he has plenty of sporting achievements to celebrate, heat has gained some insight into what Jack Grealish’s summer of fun is going to look like.

They split up almost six years ago, so Cheryl may well have assumed any criticism of the age gap between her and ex-boyfriend Liam Payne was long gone. However, the Girls Aloud star – who has six-year-old son Bear with the former One Direction singer – found herself at the centre of a social media storm last week, following the revelations about Phillip Schofield and his affair with a young runner on This Morning.Shamed TV host Phil admitted he’d had an “unwise but not illegal” relationship with the runner, who was allegedly 15 when they first met, before Phil, then in his fifties, got him a job.

After previously voicing his concerns about “how far” his rock bottom was going to be, Liam Payne proudly shared the news that he was over 100 days sober last week, and feeling amazing for it. The former One Direction star – who admitted to struggling with addiction and mental health issues during his time in the band – gave the positive life update just weeks after splitting from model girlfriend Kate Cassidy, who he dated for ten months.And heat has learned that, in the aftermath of the break-up, his ex Cheryl has been a pillar of strength for Liam – with her friends wondering if she’s hoping for more now he’s single again.“Cheryl is proud of Liam having a break from booze and working on himself,” says a source close to the mum of one, who shares six-year-old son Bear with Liam.“She is all about self-help and therapy, and she’s offered him loads of advice and books that have worked for her.

Despite recently sparking dating rumours, it turns out that a romance with Tom Cruise is the last thingon Shakira’s mind, with a source telling heat the singer is begging him to stop flirting with her.The pair recently set tongues wagging after being spotted together at the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Miami. But while Tom, 60, is said to be infatuated with the Hips Don’t Lie singer, we’re told Shakira, 46, isn’t as keen.“Tom was giddy when he met Shakira, and it wasn’t all that dissimilar to how he acted when he first got with Katie Holmes,” our source reveals of the actor.“He’s known Shakira loosely for years, but this was his first time hanging out with her in a relaxed setting, and he came away convinced they had a real connection they needed to build on.”Tom, 60, spoke to close pals about his hopeful new flame, but we’re told Shakira, 46, doesn’t feel the same.“For Shakira, one minute, she was just being friendly and posing for pictures with Tom, the next he was seemingly telling everyone she was his dream woman.

When Stacey Solomon appeared on The X Factor back in 2009, we’d never have predicted that one day she would become one of the biggest influencers in the UK, thanks to her parenting and home hacks. And now that Pickle Cottage is all but renovated, she’s trying a new way of keeping her followers engaged: working out.According to insiders, the 33 year old is loving exercising so much at the moment that she’s keen to share the experience with her fans, especially if she can follow in the footsteps of influencers like Joe Wicks and turn it into a new business venture.

Their fairy-tale wedding last summer was 20 years in the making, with fans rejoicing that they had secured their happily ever after at last. But the honeymoon phase in Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s marriage seems to have come to an end.The couple were pictured in a tense exchange at the premiere of J-Lo’s new film The Mother last week, and a source tells heat that the “suffocated” actor has told his wife he’s done with the red-carpet PDAs and needs time to himself.“Ben’s been a real trooper in taking J-Lo’s orders for so long, but there was always going to be a point where he'd snap and insist on having his own space," our source says.“He’s burnt out and finally sticking up for himself.”And while the actor – who said “I do” with J-Lo last July, after calling off their first engagement in 2004 – knows he has to show up to support his wife on important nights like her premiere, he’s putting his foot down when it comes to most events.

It’s a well-known fact that the tiniest bit of sunshine in the UK sends us running for the nearest sliver of green space – and apparently A-listers are no different.Last week, Victoria Beckham shared snaps from her long weekend of boozy Coronation celebrations, which she spent with husband David and their celeb mates in the Cotswolds.Friends say it’s all part of the new Posh, as she prepares to turn 50 – which apparently means learning how to let go and having a lot more fun.“Victoria feels like she’s entering her prime,” says an insider close to the 49 year old, who is mum to Brooklyn, 24, Romeo, 20, Cruz, 18, and Harper, 11.“Instead of letting her age get to her, she’s feeling more confident than ever. The older she gets, the more she feels able to be herself and get back to that fun Spice Girl she started off as.

If you’ve been a loyal follower of Stacey Solomon’s over the years, there is a high chance you feel as though you know her family home, Pickle Cottage, like the back of your hand. But the TV and social media star left fans stunned last week when she unveiled the Essex property’s never-before-seen gym, which she has now vowed to use every day.The cobweb-covered equipment – which Stacey spruced up as part of the gym’s deep clean – dates back to 2021, when the presenter was left notably unimpressed after husband Joe Swash snapped up a cross trainer during an episode of her BBC declutter show Sort Your Life Out.“Do you really want that?” she quizzed.

She’s been rocking some very sexy looks as she promotes her upcoming Greatest Hits album – even flashing her bottom in a music video for one of the remixed tracks – and it seems that Louise Redknapp’s new-found confidence also extends to her love life.According to insiders, the 2 Faced hitmaker, 48, is having a blast with her return to music and doesn’t feel the need to meet someone new. We’re told, “Louise is going out and having fun with friends right now and is no longer on the hunt for a man.

When Angelina Jolie and her eldest son Maddox attended the White House state dinner last month, the internet set alight. If it wasn’t actress Ange’s “protectiveness” and “fierceness” being praised, it was Maddox’s “über dapperness” and the fact he is “such a grown- up now” that caught fans’ attention.But as the 21 year old – who Angelina adopted in 2002 as a single mum – becomes more independent, we’re told he is keen to find love, but his mum has her reservations.“Maddox is ready to meet that special someone, but Angelina’s wary,” a source tells heat.“She’s fiercely protective of all her kids in this way, especially Maddox, who’s always been the apple of her eye and her main protector.

They’ve been married for 12 years and have four children, but Peter Crouch and Abbey Clancy still get insecure about their relationship. Last week, the former footballer admitted he’s worried about his model wife taking up tennis, telling her, “You might run off with the tennis coach.”But insiders say Abbey’s happy to keep her husband on his toes, as they try to keep the spark alive while working side-by-side.“She’s very much in charge and is the brains behind everything they are doing,” says an insider close to the couple, who co-host podcast The Therapy Crouch, where they bicker over relationship issues and have a “Weekly Whine” about their marriage.“It’s been four years since Peter announced his retirement from football, and in that time, Abbey has really taken control of their work.

There have been weddings, divorces and flings a-plenty, but the new season of The Kardashians looks set to focus on a major in-family feud that’s been rumbling away for a year now.Last week, a new trailer for the reality show dropped, revealing a fallout between Kourtney and Kim, with the former declaring, “My sister used my wedding as a business opportunity.” And insiders tell heat that, behind the scenes and away from the cameras, things are even worse.“Kim and Kourtney are at each other’s throats – and it’s a whole lot more serious than people realise,” says a source close to the usually tight-knit family.“They can’t be together for longer than five minutes without one of them lashing out. It’s become really toxic and everyone’s worried it’s going to get physical.

We may hang off every social media post from the Beckhams, but it’s not often we get a truly intimate insight into the family’s everyday routine. But in an upcoming Netflix documentary all about David’s life and career, we have been promised just that.As well as showing a different side to the famous footballer, the series will also give us a glimpse into some difficult times with Victoria.

As a singer-turned-reality star-turned TV presenter-turned-Instagram influencer, there’s really not much Stacey Solomon hasn’t tried her hand at when it comes to the showbiz world. But insiders say she’s now worried about the prospect of becoming the next Kris Jenner if her kids look to follow in her footsteps.

When we first heard about Victoria Beckham and Kim Kardashian’s blossoming friendship, it seemed like one of the more random celeb link ups. But, if you think about it, it makes sense.

Cheryl relaunched her career as a West End actress in January, wowing critics and fans alike with her performance in 2:22: A Ghost Story. But now Cheryl’s three-month run in the spooky play has come to an end, she’s finding it hard to let go.And it’s clear the success onstage has meant a lot to the Girls Aloudstar, who burst into tears after the final performance last week and reflected on the experience in a long Insta post.

Things haven’t been easy for Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck since their reunion in 2021 – and their relationship is about to get even bumpier.Last week, the singer launched a new range of cocktails, despite her husband being an alcoholic, with fans slamming the decision as “disappointing” and a “tacky money grab”.And heat’s sources say the actor is just as upset, blasting J-Lo for being insensitive.“A lot of people think this is in very bad taste,” says an insider close to the pair, who married last summer after calling off their wedding in 2003.“Ben’s trying hard to stay sober and has difficult days like every recovering alcoholic. He would prefer if booze wasn’t in the house at all, but has to sit back and watch Jen work on this project.

A milestone birthday is always a great excuse to let loose, and Cheryl needs it more than most, after a difficult few years as a single mum, as well as dealing with the loss of her bandmate Sarah Harding. With the singer turning 40 in just two months, she’s told friends she’s ready to go big – which means a long weekend somewhere hot, where they can enjoy fancy dinners, wild nights out, and sleeping it off by the pool the next day.“Cheryl wants to make this celebration one to remember,” says an insider close to the star – who’s mum to Bear, six, from her two-year relationship with One Direction’s Liam Payne.“She hasn’t had a proper, fun girls’ weekend away for years – probably since before Bear was born – and it’s exactly what she wants.

If you’re going to publicly end a long-running celebrity feud, of course Instagram is the place to go. Last week, Victoria Beckham shared a photo with her 31million followers showing her smiling with husband David, eldest son Brooklyn, and – crucially – with her arm around daughter-in-law Nicola Peltz-Beckham.The fashion designer, who reportedly fell out with the actress over that now-infamous $4million Palm Beach wedding last year, made sure everyone knew they’d made up, telling Nicola in the caption, “We love you so much.”Now, sources tell heat Victoria is ready for a fresh start with the newlyweds, and she’s hoping that could include some baby Beckhams.“David and Victoria have tried so hard for so long to build bridges with Brooklyn and Nicola,” says an insider close to the couple, who are also parents to Romeo, 20, Cruz, 18, and Harper, 11.“They’ve hated being estranged from their eldest son and took every opportunity to extend an olive branch.

They’ve been rivals since the 1990s, when they were starring in the two hottest shows on TV – and now it looks like Jennifer Aniston and Sarah Jessica Parker are about to go head-to-head again. With Jen set to return to screens with the third series of The Morning Show and SJP currently filming the second series of And Just Like That…, a fresh showdown is on the cards as both women aim to be crowned the Queen of TV.“Jen and Sarah Jessica once again find themselves in an identical position, which has happened at various points during their respective careers,” our insider says.“It’s common knowledge they’re both stressed about these next seasons and desperate to out-shine each other in the ratings – there’s a ton of money at stake, as well as pride.“Sarah Jessica and Jennifer have never been friends, but more than that, there are cold economics to consider.

It was their first family holiday in four years, so you know Stacey Solomon and husband Joe Swash were going to make the most of it. Last week, the down-to-earth couple shared shots from their epic trip to Abu Dhabi, where they enjoyed magical sunsets on the beach and dinner with five of their six children, as well as adventures at multiple theme parks.And the Loose Women star’s followers couldn’t get enough, telling Stacey, “You deserve everything”, and ordering the always-busy star to “have an incredible time”.

For Brooklyn Beckham, forging a solid career path hasn’t been easy. Photography, “styling” wife Nicola Peltz, and cheffing are just some of the pursuits the 24 year old has dipped his toe into over the years, much to the merciless teasing of the internet.

It’s been a hell of a year for Stacey Solomon, who renovated her house, got married, and had her fifth child. But she’s finally enjoying some R&R, as she and husband Joe Swash flew off for their first family holiday to the sun in four years.Last week, the Loose Women star shared her vacay preparations – and the “Mummy makeover” that came with it – admitting, “I’m sooo excited!”Taking to Instagram, the I’m A Celeb winner, who is mum to Zach, 13, Leighton, nine, Rex, two, Rose, 15 months, and two-month-old Belle – as well as being stepmum to Joe’s son Harry, 15 – told her 5.6million followers, “We haven’t been on an airplane all together since our last family holiday in 2019!!!

After making a jibe about Victoria Beckham’s diet, it seems football pundit Rio Ferdinand has some apologising to do. Appearing on the Australian radio show Kyle And Jackie O, Rio, 44, claimed he had “never seen [Posh] eat anything”. And now, an insider tells heat Victoria has been left fuming after some tough memories resurfaced.“Vic was really upset when she saw Rio’s comments – she won’t be tolerate it.
