Kim Kardashian might have put on 10lbs since getting pregnant but she's not going to let that stop her going out in bra, pants and a body stocking...as you do!

Wearing little else than her bra, pants and body stocking (obvs!), pregnant Kim Kardashian looked every inch the celebrity she’s been groomed to become as she stepped out at party in Cannes. But the 34-year old reality star, who’s thought to be just over three months pregnant with her much-longed for second child, a son, is secretly in turmoil as she’s already gained 10lb and now fears she’ll put on more pounds than during her first pregnancy.

While she was expecting North, now two, Kim faced cruel jibes online as she visibly gained a significant amount of weight. And she made no secret of how unhappy she was with her pregnancy body at the time.

‘I looked fat,’ she said. ‘I think God did it for a reason. He was saying: “Kim, you think you’re so hot, but look at what I can do to you.”‘

A well-placed source reveals: ‘Kim’s put on more than 10lb since getting pregnant and her bra size has gone up by two cups. She’s now a 34F ­ so none of her current bras fit. She’s ordered loads more in new sizes but she’s also having to order more underwear and Spanx.’

Kim recently spoke of her love of maternity Spanx, which explains how she’s been able to wear latex dresses with barely a hint of a baby bump.

In a recent magazine interview she revealed: ‘Sometimes I wear two pairs [of Spanx] under something, or stockings they really hold you in.’

Our source adds: ‘She’s panicking over how much weight she’s gained and wondering how the hell she’s going to handle it. Women tend to show more quickly during a second pregnancy so Kim’s suddenly become a lot bigger and it’s very noticeable. Also, the weight is going everywhere except on her tummy. Yes, she has a bit of a bump, but she’s putting weight on all
over.’

As Now recently reported, Kim’s hired trainer to the stars Tracy Anderson to keep her in shape throughout the pregnancy.

She’s also allowing her style guru husband Kanye West, 48, to choose everything she wears. Our source says: ‘Kanye’s picking out all these totally inappropriate outfits for her
­ for a few months down the line too.’

During Kim’s interview earlier this month she also opened up about what it’s really like to live in skyscraper heels and fitted outfits and’candidly revealed: ‘Sometimes I’ll wear something and I’ll get inside and be like: “Oh my God, I want to take these shoes off.” Like: “I can’t wear these. I need to just leave and take them off.” So it might look good in the picture, but then I’m like: “I’ve got to be normal and, like, unbutton my pants when I get in the car.”‘

Oh Kim, we’ve all been there…

Victoria Beckham seems to be just as obsessed with Caitlyn Jenner’s Vanity Fair cover shoot as we are!

We’ve been obsessed with Caitlyn Jenner and her courage and beautiful bravery (oh, and that amazing hair) ever since she graced the cover of Vanity Fair, and it seems like we’re not the only ones.

Our favourite fashion bunny, Victoria Beckham, is supposedly a massive fan of the 65-year-old a source told the Daily Star – and why wouldn’t she be!

‘She thinks [Caitlyn] looks absolutely stunning and wants to style her and even include her in an upcoming fashion campaign.’

VB styling Caitlyn…anyone else kind of want them to be wearing matching LBDs a la the Posh Spice days?

Vicky B, 41, and her designs are always chic, timeless and elegant, which is exactly what Caitlyn Jenner always looks like, so we think that the two would be a match-made in heaven!

And we’re not the only ones to think so, as Victoria ‘feels Caitlyn’s glamorous style and Amazonian figure would work perfectly with her clothes.’

Caitlyn announced her arrival and transformation from her former self of Bruce Jenner, at the beginning of June, in the best possible way.

She tweeted a photo of her on the cover of Vanity Fair simply titled ‘Call me Cait’, and posted on Twitter: ‘I’m so happy after such a long struggle to be living my true self. Welcome to the world Caitlyn. Can’t wait for you to get to know her/me.’

And both Victoria and us have loved getting to know her!

‘Vic is a little bit obsessed by Caitlyn’s Vanity Fair shoot. Victoria has championed Caityn ever since she came out in an interview with Diane Sawyer.’

That’s what we call girl power!

Read what lessons we learnt from THIS Father’s Day photo from Caitlyn…

Rachel Stevens speaks out about the S Club 7 romance between Hannah Spearritt and Paul Cattermole

Rachel Stevens has opened up about the controversial S Club 7 romance that’s been hitting the headlines.

Following the band’s reunion tour, Hannah Spearritt and Paul Cattermole have reportedly got back together, having previously dated from 2001 to 2006.

But their rekindled relationship hasn’t gone down well with Hannah’s former fiancé Adam Thomas, who has blasted the blonde singer for moving on with Paul immediately after they’d broken up.

‘Hannah moaned to me until she was blue in the face about Paul – she said he was so fat he could hardly dance,’ said Adam.

‘And now she’s with him. He’d moved into my bed before it’d got cold – that’s the biggest kick in the teeth.’

Rachel has defended 34-year-old Hannah though and hopes the online abuse she’s received hasn’t upset her too much.

‘Bless her, I don’t really know what’s happening with all that but I do hope she’s ok,’ says Rachel, 37.

‘I try not to pay too much attention to that stuff, the negative stuff that is online, but it is there for all of us unfortunately. It is what it is.’

Rachel admits that Paul and Hannah always had a bond which returned when the S Club 7 reunion tour kicked off earlier this year.

‘Hannah and Paul are so close, and they always have been,’ Rachel tells the Mirror.

‘They’ve always got on so well, and always had that relationship and when we came back on tour, that just came back straight away.

‘They always really just got on with each other right from the start but this time around, I didn’t really think about it to be honest.’

Whilst Hannah and Paul, 38, have kept quiet about their love, fans spotted them sharing a kiss on the London Underground earlier this week and they certainly looked pretty close.

It also means that they’re still hanging out together, despite the fact that the S Club 7 Bring It All Back 2015 tour ended last month.

OITNB's Jackie Cruz has been keeping up with the Kardashians longer than most

While most of us are currently binging on new episodes of Netflix’s Orange Is The New Black, one person probably giving it a miss is Kourtney Kardashian, 36.

Kim Kardashian’s older sister first met Jackie Cruz – one of the breakout stars of OITNB – in 2009 while filming Khloe and Kourtney Take Miami, and things got slightly steamy between the pair.

After meeting by chance at an art class, the 28-year-old actress ended up snogging the mum of three after stripping off for a hot tub session together.

While Kourtney quickly regretted her girl-on-girl night of passion, telling sister Khloe: ‘Jackie is calling me non-stop and I’m so embarrassed I made out with her. I did not mean to lead her on. I’m so embarrassed. I can never talk to this girl again.’

The at-the-time struggling actress/musician Jackie seemed quite grateful the whole thing happened.

‘I definitely think it had a positive impact in my career because people got to know my name and what I was doing in my life,’ Jackie explained. ‘Kourtney is such a sweet person, and yes we are still friends. Now and than we text each other to see how we are both doing.’

And if Kourtney K’s kissing partner isn’t enough to tempt you in the weird and wonderful world of Litchfield prison, actress Ruby Rose might be.

Meet the star that’s sent the internet into an absolute meltdown since joining the show for its third season.

TOWIE star Gemma wants to join Celebrity Big Brother

When Gemma Collins waved goodbye to TOWIE to enter I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, she lasted a shameful few days. However, she did say she wasn’t in the best place following a violent break-up with her ex Alex Moss.

But now, the rumour mill is rife claiming that the larger than life reality TV star, 34, is keen to join Celebrity Big Brother, despite previously turning down the show.

According to reports, Gemma, is said to be considering a slot on the popular Channel 5 show after TOWIE producers suspended her from filming after throwing a hissy fit.

But her chances of mixing with a string of fellow celebs under the watchful eye of Big Brother could be hanging in the balance as sources have claimed that she wants a six-figure sum but bosses are only prepared to offer five figures.

A source told The Sun: ‘Gemma has previously been quite vocal about how she turned down CBB to stay on Towie. But that was before she was suspended from the show and now everything has changed. She is looking at CBB as a way back to telly as well as showing Towie bosses just what they are missing. But it all comes down to money.’

Apparently, Gemma’s suspension came after a string of rows with show producers and allegedly throwing a plastic glass of booze in the direction of a producer while in Spain.

It’s not yet known how long Gemma will be off air for following her suspension, but insiders told The Sun that if she’s allowed to return for the new series in October, that will leave her with enough time to do CBB which launches in August.

First time festival-goer? Here's how to survive Glastonbury 2015 like a pro

When it comes to Glastonbury 2015, you’re going to need more than a pair of wellies, pop-up tent and couple of cans of larger to get you through the nightmare/festival.

So if you want to make it through the mud and live to tell the tale of your time at England’s (wetter, colder and dirtier) answer to Coachella – make sure you follow our nine step survival guide!

1. ONLY FOOLS GET FLOODED

Don’t camp at the bottom of the hill. Because, well, when it rains (which it will) that water is flooding in only one direction… and that’s towards the patch of grass you’ll be calling a bed for the week.

2. BRING THE RIGHT KIND OF BOOZE

And by that, we mean anything that’s not in a glass bottle. In order to keep the peace and sail that safety – Glasto is very GlassNO. Get your spirits in plastic bottles, cause otherwise they will be taken off you.

3. ALWAYS PACK MORE (KNICKERS) THAN YOU THINK YOU NEED

If you think you’ll only need five pairs of undies, take ten, because you never know what could happen. Take that however you please. Also, thinking of flip-flops? Think again. Function over fashion – this isn’t Coachella.

4. DON’T FALL FOR THE TENT TRICKERY

Did you see that green tent in the supermarket on sale for £19.99? Yeah, so did everyone else. So when you’re stumbling through the dark after a day of dancing trying to find yours, expect a struggle cause everyone has the same one.

5. HIDE YOUR MONEY

In your wallet, down ya wellies, hidden in a pocket back in your tent – make sure you spread your money out to ensure you don’t lose it all at once. Or spend it all at once.

6. DON’T BREAK YOUR PHONE

You know what don’t really react well with water? iPhones. So stick yours in a sealable sandwhich bag when the rain does come pouring. How will you tweet about how much fun you’re having if your phones all wet and stuff?

7. CLEANING YOUR BITS

Let’s be honest, there’s nothing appealing about dragging a moist towelette across your manky and muddy body in the morning – but it’s better than being smelly. Right?

8. FESTIVAL FOOD IS REALLY EXPENSIVE

Festivals aren’t just fun, they’re also well expensive. So shop around the various stands before parting with approximately £13,282,982 for them cheesy chips.

9. STAY SAFE

You wouldn’t randomly decide to walk home with a complete stranger late at night, so the same applies at a festival. Stay safe.

Jamie Laing, or should we say Jamie long?

Made in Chelsea heart throb, Jamie Laing was caught with his manhood on full show on Wednesday night.

The reality star and posh boy was left red faced after being snapped enjoying a steamy shower.

Luckily for his admirers nothing was left to the imagination. And we mean NOTHING!

Unfortunately for Jamie the nude pictures were taken using Snapchat, spreading faster across the Internet than you can say six foot huge talent.

A second picture emerged shortly afterwards showing the star grinning at the camera, hands covering his pride and joy.

This isn’t the first time the 26-year-old McVitie heir has been in hot water for getting caught with his kit off.

In 2013 Jamie caused a Twitter storm after lewd photos uploaded by his then girlfriend, Tara Keeney, found their way onto the social networking site. The naughty snaps showed Liang completely nude enjoying an intimate moment with himself in front of a mirror.

Jamie, who has a whopping 943,000 followers, kept rather quiet about it on his personal Twitter account, instead leaving the apologising to a spokesperson.

He said: ‘Jamie can only apologise for any offence that has been caused.’

Mr Laing certainly isn’t uncomfortable with stripping off for the camera. That same year Jamie performed a live 3D strip tease on Yahoo’s OMG to the delight of salivating fans worldwide.
Jamie, who has his own range of sweets Candy Kittens, describes himself as a cross between Hugh Hefner and Willy Wonka. Fans no doubt will be left wondering when they will see his Willy Wonka next.

As of now Jamie hasn’t made a statement on his latest nudist escapade and the unseen photographer hasn’t even been named yet.

We will just have to wait and see how Mr Birthday Suit will handle this one.

The only time we've ever wished we were a fish. David Beckham and son Brooklyn enjoyed a father-son bonding day fishing in Dorset

An ability to make a man-band sexy is one thing, but an ability to make fishing sexy? Now that is a whole other kettle of fish (ahem…). David Beckham, you are one sexy sea-dog.

If you’re wondering what on earth is the link between David, 40, and cod then you have come to the right place.

David and son Brooklyn, 16, have shared some Instagram snaps of themselves enjoying a spot of fishing with the aid of a local fisherman during a father-son day out in Dorset, Weymouth.

David’s first post, captioned ‘Bonding time with your kids is always so special… Dad and Brooklyn fishing outing’, shows the pair dressed to collectively impress the haddocks of the Weymouth Sea in matching tweed flat-caps.

And the fish were certainly impressed as the following post displayed what can only be described as a shark in disguise as a fish, captioned ‘A nice John Dory that the captain said it’s the 2nd biggest he had seen’. And this is officially the only time we’ve ever wished we were a fish.

Of course all this sea pandemonium didn’t go unnoticed, as the father and son arrived back to a dock full of excited fans whom David happily posed with. With the fresh water selection on board the Beckham boat we wouldn’t have been able to contain ourselves either.

And as if that wasn’t all exciting enough, it turns out the duo fueled up for their adventures on the ‘Katie Ann’ in none other than the local Morrisons cafè. And in case you want to know what David has for breakfast (we’re not judging), the store manager has revealed ‘David had a bacon and egg roll. He was very pleasant and courteous to our staff and personally wished me a good day’.

Brooklyn certainly didn’t shy away from the country bumpkin vibes (is that a thing?). After posting several fishing boat selfless of the day (as you do), he next shared a countryside snap of himself and a vintage car captioned ‘First driving lesson. Very Gatsby!’.

Egg rolls, Lobsters and matching Beckham tweed flat-cap… just another day in the office of course.

Leaving One Direction was obviously the right thing to do, says Now’s Lucy

Zayn Malik left us totally devastated back in March when he unexpectedly quit One Direction but it seems as though this whole ‘solo career’ malarkey is doing him the world of good.

Although 1D fans around the world were heartbroken when 22-year-old Zayn left the band, it’s clear that Mr Malik is thriving on his own. I’ve never been a huge One Direction lover – although I won’t deny a cheeky sing-song in the shower – but I’ve gotta say, Zayn has never, EVER, looked as good as he does now.

Check the pics above if you don’t believe me…

After photos emerged today of Zayn attending Paris Fashion Week, I was left a little taken aback. Is this really 1D’s Zayn? Is it really the former dark-haired, mysterious boy band crooner? Yes, yes it is!

Per-lease, pass me a fan because things just got hawt in here. I’m actually envious of Zayn’s Little Mix fiancée, Perrie Edwards, 21.

Sporting a blonde shaven head, contrasting dark brows and a super sexy smoulder, it’s like Zayn has totally broken away from the stereotypical boy band look and has embraced a brand-spanking new style. No longer is Zayn the young twenty-something boy. He’s now, A MAN.

He’s not even donning high-street clobber any more either. Instead, Zayn is opting for true designer style – the kinda clothes that only the rich and famous can really get away with.

Zayn is 100 per-cent ready for the world of solo music now and with rumours flying that he could be in talks to sign a contract with rapper 50 Cent, I’m pretty excited!

Oh he’s like the Sisqo of 2015- y’no, the white-haired, shaven-headed R&B singer who had us boogying down to dance floor hits Thong Song and Unleash The Dragon back in the late nineties.

I will be sat here in anticipation awaiting news of Zayn’s upcoming music…whilst staring at the photo I have of him pinned to my notice board…

Billie Faiers has been on TOWIE since the beginning but may be quitting for her own show with Sam Faiers

The originals are the best, that’s what they say right? And Billie Faiers has been on Essex-based reality TV show TOWIE since the beginning, but she could be parting ways with it, following in her sister’s footsteps. Cue the sad music.

The 25-year-old’s younger sister, Sam Faiers, quit the show last year, not because of some terrible disagreement or because she couldn’t face putting on any more fake tan, but purely just because she felt like she’d outgrown the show. And that seems to be exactly how Billie feels too, as a source tells The Sun.

‘’There’s no bad feeling, Billie’s just been there since series one and feels she’s done her time.’

The Essex girl has said before that after five years on the show, the only reason she would quit would be if she wanted to extend her family.

‘’TOWIE have been really good to me and I’m really happy, so for now I can’t see myself leaving. However, if another baby comes along, maybe things would be different,’ she told OK!

Whether or not there may be another mini-Faiers on the card, it’s not like Billie would have loads of spare time on her hands after she left, as she’s a mum-of-one to her 11-month-old daughter Nelly, and is preparing for her wedding with fiance Greg Shepard later this year.

As well as that, she has a business with her sis, Minnies Boutique, and there have even been whispers that the pair want to have their own reality TV show together. We’re thinking like an Essex version of The Simple Life.

It’s not surprising the sisters might want to move onto newer pastures as their brother, Mark Wright, has gone onto so many other ventures since he left TOWIE. From doing the worm on Strictly Come Dancing, being BFFs with Dougie Poynter on I’m a Celeb and landing himself presenting gigs on Heart FM and Take Me Out: The Gossip.

Life after TOWIE ain’t too shabby!

Five years after his last stint, EastEnders fave Dean Gaffney is returning to the Square once again...

Guess who’s back, again…! It’s the Square’s one and only Dean Gaffney. Dean, who played one of the best-loved EastEnders characters of all time – market sweeper Robbie Jackson with his pet dog Wellard – left the show in 2004 after eleven years and then returned for a short stint in 2010 when he walked his sister Bianca (Patsy Palmer) down the aisle, before returning to India after his wife Nita fell pregnant. Now Dean’s set to make another big return later this year as part of his on-screen mum, Carol, played by Lindsey Coulson’s, exit storyline, but scriptwriters are keeping the scenes a big secret.

Dean says: “I am honoured that Dominic and all at EastEnders have decided to open the door and find out where Robbie’s been and what he’s been up to.”

In real life, Dean revealed in 2012 that he had applied for a job at M15 as a mobile surveillance officer.

‘I love spy films and the whole James Bond thing and I’ve got an inquiring mind, so I thought I’d give it a go,’ Dean told The Sun. ‘MI5 put out an advert looking for people and I thought “How hard can it be?”. Most spies spend their lives pretending to be people who they’re not. I do that for a living.’

He appeared in panto and won the hearts of the nation all over again on I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. Fans will remember the hilarious moment he was not well hard on his bush tucker trial when he was left terrified of the jungle grub.

These days Dean is mistaken on a daily basis for the world’s richest male supermodel, David Gandy.

‘Not a day goes by when someone doesn’t compare us’, he said. ‘It’ll be interesting to meet him. I know he’s done various talk shows, like Alan Carr and Graham Norton, and they’ve said to him, “You know you do look like Dean Gaffney”, and he smiled. ‘He must get it as much as I must get it. I’m not sure which one of us is offended.’

Recently he’s been tipped as the latest rumoured celebrity to be entering the CBB house this summer, alongside TOWIE’s Gemma Collins.

Good to have you back on the box, Dean!

Zayn Malik the solo era seems to be approaching fast... and we're excited.

Continuing his quest to live the life of a normal 22-year-old, Zayn Malik now looks set to release a hip hop/grime music collaboration with rappers Krept and Konan.

The South London duo revealed earlier this week they’d hit the studio with the former boybander, saying: ‘We’ve done a little cover with [Zayn] and we shot a video but it just didn’t end up coming out because it didn’t get finished. He’s got ammunition sitting there with Krept and Konan.’

And now it seems the pair are keen to release it given the sudden interest from fans pressuring them to put it out.

‘If us and Zayn decide to put it out then you’ll get it, but we would never leak it. We ain’t here to use anybody for fame,’ member Casyo ‘Krept’ Johnson has now revealed. ‘I’ll be with him [Zayn] on Friday, and will talk about it then.’

After we exclusively revealed in March – just three days after Zayn quit One Direction – how he was already working on R&B tracks, it seems the former pop star really is serious about taking his music in this new direction.

Not only is Zayn set to meet ‘for talks’ about the track today, but it’s now believed he’ll be heading to Glastonbury this weekend too.

After meeting headliner Kanye West at Paris Fasion Week on Thursday, fans have took to Twitter to speculate about him joining the Yeezus superstar on stage.

And with Krept and Konan bookeded to perform at the festival this weekend too, could the Bradford born singer be debuting their track too?

Vicky Pattison gets a bit fruity in a funny costume - and it’s all for a great cause

Vicky Pattison always loves an opportunity to dress up but we never expected to see her wearing something like THIS.

The former Geordie Shore star, 27, certainly stood out on Tuesday night when she donned a giant BANANA costume out in Newcastle!

It was all for a good cause though as Vicky was taking part in a charity run to support The Chronicle Sunshine Fund’s Go Bananas appeal, a fundraising initiative that provides specialist equipment to children with disabilities in the North East of England.

Vicky’s mum Caroll is Fund Director for the charity and proudly shared a snap of the reality star modelling her fruity outfit.

A smiley Vicky gives a thumbs up in the photo as she joins other runners for a warm-up. What a good sport!

The Newcastle lass reTweeted her mum’s post and jokingly added: ‘Did it as a banana didn’t i?!!? #gobananas’

Before donning the banana get-up, fit Vicky revealed that she was feeling very motivated when she took a selfie with Caroll.

The drizzly weather didn’t deter the Pattison girls. Vicky happily joined other runners – including many other bananas! – to run the slightly damp race.

She clearly had a brilliant time helping to raise money for the cause and spoke of how much fun she’d had afterwards.

‘Such an amazing evening!!! ,’ the Judge Geordie star told her social media fans.

In fact it sounds like Vicky enjoyed being a banana so much that she’s keen to don another eye-catching outfit when she next takes part in an event.

‘Haha… Apple next time! ,’ she joked on Twitter.

Running a 5k as a giant piece of fruit isn’t all fun though. Vicky admitted that she was feeling a bit worn out the morning after as she forced herself to go for a bit of training.

Behind the laughs there was a heart-warming reason for Vicky’s participation in the event. The TV star revealed that she was primarily hoping to raise money for disabled youngster Aysha Matthews, whose family hope to get her a bike.

‘I want to do this run to raise awareness for an amazing charity and a cause that’s close to my heart,’ Vicky told The Chronicle before the 5k.

‘The Sunshine Fund raises money for disabled children in the North East and I wanted to do my bit.

‘In particular there is a beautiful little girl called Aysha who needs £1,100 for a trike – her mam has said that her little brother can’t get a bike until she can, so I want to raise at least that amount to help this brave and amazing family.’

Awww, great work, Vicky!

Caitlyn Jenner’s ex-wife, Kris Jenner, finally addresses the Vanity Fair photo

Ever since Caitlyn Jenner introduced herself to the world back at the beginning of this month, with THAT beautiful Vanity Fair cover titled ‘Call Me Cait’, everyone has been in awe over the 65-old-year. And rightly so.

Everyone except her ex-wife, Kris Jenner it seemed. While the rest of the world and Caitlyn’s family showed support and applauded her courage and bravery, Kris, 59, kept pretty quiet on the issue. Until now that is.

‘I think it’s amazing.’

Kris finally broke her silence on the former Olympian’s transformation while at the DailyMail’s Seriously Popular Party in Cannes, and told Extra that she thought Caitlyn looked ‘beautiful.’

‘I think that someone following their dream is truly inspirational to a lot of people….you have to do what makes you happy.’
True that.

Caitlyn mentioned Kris in his Vanity Fair interview and insisted that Kris always knew of her desire to become a woman. So much so that Caitlyn said that Kris knew that Bruce Jenner – Caitlyn’s former identity – was taking hormones and dressing in women’s clothing for a number of years.

And Kris herself said: ‘He was married to me and he wasn’t who he wanted to be so he was miserable.’

She seemed to be a bit confused at what was going on at the time, rhetorically asking: ‘’Why would you want to be married and have kids if this is what you wanted since you were a little boy? Why would you not explain this all to me.’

Despite all this though, Caitlyn only looks back at her marriage with Kris with fond memories.
‘Reading the VF article reminded me of the love & good times Kris & I shared for so many years.’

Seems like they’ve both moved forward in their lives, as Caitlyn continues to spread awareness about gender identity, and Kris was seen at the Cannes party with new boyfriend Corey Gamble.

Well, we think both ladies are FAB!

With his JLS days behind him, Aston Merrygold lets us in on some cringey moments

Former JLS star Aston Merrygold is embarking on a solo career and with the upcoming release of his new single, Get Stupid, we thought it was only fitting to speak to the man himself, just to find out how stupid he really is.

Yes, OK, it might sound harsh and we know 27-year-old Aston is far from stupid but everyone has their moments right?

First up, we were eager to know the stupidest thing Aston has ever done for love. Did he serenade an ex girlfriend? Perhaps he wrote an embarrassing love letter and had it delivered by a white-crested owl?

Nope, none of those. Aston revealed:

‘I had an argument once and in the middle of the night I just drove and left flowers and a sorry card on the car. It did go down well!’

We don’t think that’s stupid at all – we reckon that’s absolutely adorable.

As for his stupid drunken antics?

Well, Aston revealed that he has a tendency to lose his clothes. Err, ok! We’re sure Aston fans wouldn’t mind witnessing that though…

With Aston’s debut single going by the name of Get Stupid (FYI- it’s seriously catchy!), we just HAD to know how exactly Aston gets stupid.

After admitting that it was only a certain group of friends who triggered stupid moments, Aston admitted:

Niall Horan may no longer be a single pringle having a mingle

Newly single Niall Horan seems to be having the time of his life lately.

After breaking up with Australian student Melissa Whitelaw at the start of June following their three-month romance – citing long distance as the main reason behind the split – the One Direction star certainly seems to be fully embracing the single life.

Following an alleged short-lived fling with Ariana Grande after she was recently spotted leaving his home in the early hours, Niall’s been back on the town (and pull?) with possibly even more success this time.

As a newspaper reported the 21-year-old boybander was spotted leaving Libertine club on Wednesday night with a ‘mystery brunette’ – we can reveal the girl in question was his ex Amy Green.

The pair dated from October 2012 to February 2013, with The Mirror claiming at the time ‘Amy ended a four-year relationship with her ex to be with Niall.’

However, the love didn’t appear to last with a source close to Niall revealing ‘he didn’t have time for a relationship’ after a couple of months.

But with the two of them now being spotted driving off into the dark of the night together following an evening of partying – could things be back on for the former couple?

Amy, a casting researcher on The Voice, first broke the hearts of Directioners around the world after Niall accidentally left his webcam on following a Twitcam and broadcast himself embracing the brunette beauty.

Let’s relive the moment below:

Sayyy whaaaat? Yes, your boyfriend might be the one stealing your necklaces...

We have a lot of items in our wardrobes that we’ve borrowed from current or ex boyfriends and have never returned because they make us feel safe, look so much better on us or we brought it for them, feeling bitter and decided to keep it in the break-up… No? Just us? We’re still positive that we look better in them anyway!

Well now we think the tables have turned and they’re borrowing our jewellery or we’re stealing theirs – just like Kendall Jenner was seen in a similar necklace that belonged to rumoured flame Lewis Hamilton recently in Monaco. Thoughts on that? Sorry Lewis, but we actually think it looks far better on Kendall, obvs!

We steal their jumpers, tshirts, sometimes trainers to put the bins out in and occasionally we find them in our jeans because they’re ‘so much skinnier‘ apparently but we never thought we’d see the day we’d find them rummaging in our jewellery pots and drawers!? Yes, we’re not kidding you!

Taking tips from totty like Mark Ronson, Brooklyn Beckham and Jamie Campbell-Bower, it’s not all about the Mr T chain like Lewis, but long chains with a pendant and shirt jewels are hot this season! Pretty sure Kendall Jenner is the only person that could pull this look off without looking like an Eastenders extra!

Take a look at our gallery of our 9 fave jewellery items that we’re loving right now that we wouldn’t be annoyed if our boyf borrowed – just hope he doesn’t make a thing of it! To be fair, if Douglas Booth was our boyfriend, we wouldn’t mind him stealing our old shabby necklaces!

What do you think? Would you be angry if you saw your boyfriend wearing your favourite necklace? Or would you take it as a compliment? Let us know in the comment box below!

Yes, The Saturdays star, Frankie Bridge, has changed her hair again and we love it!

No one pulls off a bob quite like The Saturdays singer Frankie Bridge (except maybe Victoria Beckham). Self proclaimed as the ‘short haired member’ of the girl band on her Twitter, she’s updated her signature look. But what do you think? We’ve love to hear your thoughts on her new look!

Frankie, 26, has quite frequently changed her hair and in her previous pregnancy with Parker, drastically changed her hair by having extensions put in – certainly a different look for Frankie who has always rocked a pixie cut.

The once bob turned pixie is back to a bob and cuter than ever. She wasted no time posting a mirror selfie straight from the chair at Kennadys Salon to her Instagram. Frankie wanted a ‘bit of summer colour’ and opted for a lighter shade of chestnut brown with caramel highlights, making her choppy layers pop. The light shade looks fab with her fresh holiday tan and pregnancy glow and we LOVE your new hair Frankie! In fact, we may need to book ourselves in for a similar look!

The second pregnancy is definitely not easier for the mum of 20-month-old Parker. From missing the Strictly tour to terrible bouts of morning sickness, it’s clearly been rough. And after a hectic holiday a few weeks ago with her husband and toddler in Portugal, she claims she needs to take it easy. No worries Frankie, we’ll take your next holiday for you!

The Bridge clan is busy preparing for a little brother for Parker, as was announced earlier this month. And we can’t wait to see a picture of the new arrivial!

Only two months left until baby number two, Frankie! You can do it! And we’re positive the next one will be just as cute as the first! We can’t wait to hear the name and wish you all the best!

Made in Chelsea’s James Dunmore, boyfriend of Lucy Watson, was spotted on the dating app

Ah how the world of dating has changed. Gone are the Bridget Jones days of dialling 1471 to see if someone had called, which have been replaced by anxiety caused over WhatsApp blue ticks and swiping left, right and everywhere – everyone single person and their dog is on a dating app these days.

And it seems that it’s not those who are single and ready to mingle who are on these apps. Made in Chelsea’s James Dunmore is dating fellow co-star (and our go-to girl for sassy comebacks) Lucy Watson, but was spotted on dating app Happn this week.

The app, shows you fellow users on the app who have crossed paths with you in your area, and you can click a tick or a big ol’ cross for them. Think of it like Britain’s Got Talent buzzers.

And it’s not like when you make a profile ‘for a joke’ eh-hem…. and then forget all about it, and he was seen active a mere 9 hours beforehand. Think Lucy knows about James’ extracurricular activity on his phone?

We can’t imagine she’d be too happy about it, as Luce usually takes no rubbish and is pretty blunt, especially when it comes to guys – that’s why we love her! With a history of not exactly declaring her undying love with guys she’s dating, and being a bit wary, we loved that James and her worked out on MIC, and they have become the cutest and coolest couple in the SW district.

With the pair looking so happy together, and with Lucy even posting a pic of the two of them together at a festival just this week, along with MIC-ers Alex Mytton and Nicola Hughes, why on earth was James active on a dating app?! Hmm…

Whatever the reason, bit of advice James? You don’t want to mess with Lucy and get all up in her grill *snaps fingers in a Z-formation*

We saw more of MIC’s Jamie Laing than we bargined for!
