As for the whole Fern Britton thing, why can't people just leave her alone? Why does she have to tell people what goes on in her private life? Hence the name PRIVATE?!

TV journalist Martin Bashir has been diagnosed with a brain tumour.
The 45-year-old, who is best known for his interviews with Princess Diana and Michael Jackson, confirmed that doctors have found a growth on his pituitary gland.
The tumour was discovered during a scan for a head injury he sustained on the set of his Nightline show for America's ABC News.
Bashir, who lives with wife Debbie and their two children in New York, insisted that he has no plans to scale back his personal or professional life in the wake of the news.
His agent John Miles said: "It has been a very worrying time for Martin and his family but the good news is that the specialists do not want to operate on the tumour yet.
"The doctors say they have found it at a very early stage. Obviously it's very serious and they are not unconcerned."
Miles added: "While of course it has been very upsetting, Martin is seeing it as a blessing in disguise. If he hadn't had the knock to the head, he would never have known about the tumour."
The pituitary gland is located at the base of the brain and helps regulate the body's growth.
Madonna has reportedly hired divorce lawyer Nicholas Mostyn QC.
According to Holy Moly, the singer is starting divorce proceedings against her husband Guy Ritchie.
Mostyn's previous high-profile cases include Heather Mills, Earl Spencer and footballer Ray Parlour.
The singer apparently met the legal representative at his London office ten days ago.
It is rumoured that Ritchie and Madonna don't have a prenuptial agreement, meaning the film director may be entitled to some of the popstar's fortune.
Is this true or just another rumour? Those two have been getting divorced for years :searchme:Quote:

The website reports that Cash was overheard saying "she's beautiful" about his new baby, while he was spotted bringing food into the hospital's maternity unit on Sunday.
Jessica, 27, and Cash, 31, quietly tied the knot last month in Beverly Hills after meeting on the set of Jessica's film Fantastic Four.
Before the birth, the actress told Fit Pregnancy magazine what kind of parent she will be. "I don't want to be my child's best friend. I want to be a mom," she said.
"But I do want my child to come to me when they have problems and need to talk, so it's going to be about treading that line."
I didn't even know she was pregnant? :searchme: :eek:
From The Sun
FIVE private jets, £400,000 for WESTLIFE as the band and a £130,000 dress by a Hollywood mogul’s wife are just SOME of the ingredients of this week’s £5MILLION wedding between footie ace WAYNE ROONEY and WAG COLEEN MCLOUGHLIN.
The 22-year-olds were at home yesterday, before going to Italy, where they will tie the knot.
Has your invite got lost in the post? Never mind, here SHARON HENDRY brings you the essential A-to-Z insiders’ guide to the big match.
A is for Alder Hey. Despite the wedding’s excess, Wayne and Coleen have shown they have a conscience by asking guests not to buy presents but instead make generous donations to the Alder Hey Children’s Hospital in Liverpool and also Claire House, a Merseyside children’s hospice.
B is for Butterflies. Guests will be given a hand-made box tied with a ribbon and containing a butterfly, which they have to release at the time of the wedding.
A source said: “The butterfly release will make everyone gasp with amazement. It is a beautiful sight.”
C is for Champagne breakfasts. The couple insist their guests should sip the finest champagne at breakfast each morning after they rise and look out over the breathtaking views of the Italian Riviera.
D is for Disgruntled family. A rift has opened up in the Rooney clan after several relatives were not invited to the extravagant Italian bash.
They include Wayne’s cousins Natalie and Stephen, his uncle John’s children.
They were the first to be struck off the guest list because Stephen is a gay cross-dresser who wanted to be a bridesmaid, and Natalie flashed her enhanced boobs at another Rooney family bash.
E is for Elise Lindsay. Elise is the Sheffield-based personal trainer credited with sculpting Coleen’s shape to wow guests in her wedding dress.
She says: “We do an hour-and-a-half to two hours. If Coleen is stationary, it’s only to tie her shoelaces.”
F is for Five million quid. This is the amount the wedding will reportedly cost from start to finish.
OK! magazine is footing half the bill, while Wayne and Coleen will pay the rest. It’s small change for Wayne, who earns £115,000 a week playing at Old Trafford, plus £10million a year in sponsorship from Nike, Coca-Cola and EA Sports.
He also has a £3million book deal with HarperCollins.
G is for GEORGINA CHAPMAN. Arguably the most important person involved in the wedding preparations, British-born Georgina owns the Marchesa designer label which Coleen has chosen for her dress.
The 32-year-old wife of Hollywood mogul HARVEY WEINSTEIN, has designed dresses for NICOLE KIDMAN, RENEE ZELLWEGER and PENELOPE CRUZ.
Coleen’s £130,000 creation is thought to include pearls and crystals.
H is for Hen nights. Last month Wayne treated Coleen and five friends to a pre-hen trip to Miami.
Later there was a £50,000 lunch, dinner and pampering session at the five-star Lowry Hotel in Manchester for 24 guests, including Coleen’s mum Colette and Wayne’s mum Jeanette.
I is for Ibiza. Wayne chose the Med clubbing spot for his stag do.
He hired a luxury villa and told his friends to leave their wallets behind, even though the bill was likely to top £250,000.
A source said: “He budgeted for £10,000 a head. He didn’t want anyone paying for anything.”
J is for Jets. Five private planes have been hired to ferry guests from London and Manchester to the wedding venue near Portofino. The cost is thought to be around £200,000.
K is for KARL LAGERFELD. The style guru who heads legendary fashion house Chanel has reportedly designed several of the outfits and accessories Coleen has chosen for her honeymoon at an undisclosed destination.
L is for La Cervara. This is the 700-year-old former abbey where the wedding and reception is tipped to be held.
A writer once described it as: “A pious monastery that is immersed in the immensity of a primitive, virgin and untamed nature, a monastery that is dedicated to concentration, repentance and prayer.”
M is for Masked ball. This is planned as part of the spectacular reception party. It also gives Coleen a chance to perform an eye-catching costume change.
N is for New York City. The home of the A-list Marchesa label Coleen chose for her dress.
She made a staggering six trips to the city with her mum Colette for fittings.
On each trip, the pair were flown first class — at a cost of £8,000 a time.
O is for OK! The celebrity mag is guarding its £2.5million deal — half the wedding’s cost — with a ring of steel.
A 100-strong security team has been employed to protect the venue for several days and guests’ bags will be searched for cameras.
P is for Portofino. This small Italian fishing village will witness one of the most lavish weddings of recent years.
Located in the province of Genoa, on the Italian Riviera, its small harbour is considered to be among the most beautiful Mediterranean ports.
Q is for Quadrilatero d’Oro. This is the famous designer Mecca of Milan where Wayne and Coleen were seen shopping for his wedding tuxedo.
R is for Revellers. The Manchester party-planning firm charged with organising the event, including the catering and cake. An advert on the firm’s website boasts: “We can deliver whatever it takes to make your occasion unforgettable"
Tiger lilies from Thailand, mariachi bands from Mexico, even schnapps from Siberia. We use our imagination to transform venues, create themes and stun your guests.”
S is for Shore Club Hotel. Coleen chose to wave goodbye to her single lifestyle with a pre-hen stay at this exclusive Miami hotel.
Estimated to have cost £60,000, the trip included first-class flights for the party of five and plenty of Cristal champagne at £1,000 a bottle.
Actors ASHTON KUTCHER, WILL SMITH and QUEEN LATIFAH are just some of the celebs who are known for frequenting the ultra-modern hotel.
T is for Tan. Coleen is a sun-worshipper and rarely steps out without a golden glow.
Her wedding day will be no exception and she has taken a break at a five star hotel in the Canary Islands with six friends to top up her tan.
A source said: “The idea is to make sure her skin sets the wedding dress off in the most stunning way possible.”
U is for Uncle Sean. Coleen’s trusted uncle Sean McLoughlin is to be Wayne’s best man, limiting any scope for embarrassing speech material.
V is for Villa Durazzo. Another tip for the wedding venue, this is a stunning 16th Century fortress with banqueting hall, gardens and panoramic views.
Coleen is said to have fallen in love with the Mediterranean hideaway on a trip to the Italian Riviera last year. The five-star cliff-top location is popular with privacy-seeking celebrities.
W is for Westlife. Coleen is a huge fan of the Irish boy band and was desperate to get them to play at her wedding. It is thought the bill for the performance comes in at a whopping £400,000.
X is for eXchanging vows. Coleen and Wayne are both staunch Catholics. Coleen has chosen to fly her local parish priest out from Croxteth, Liverpool, to oversee the ceremony.
Y is for Yacht. A luxury vessel has been hired to host a lunch for the 64 guests. There is also the option of some sailing trips for the more adventurous guests.
Z is for Zoom lenses. Coleen and Wayne have chosen to wed in the country where the term “paparazzi” was coined.
Hordes of photographers from around the world will be focusing their lenses on the lavish ceremony but minders have been employed to pace the perimeter and sight screens have been positioned to ward off prying eyes.
I know they support Alder Hey but somehow the expense spent on these arrangements seems a little obscene for my liking. I just hope this relationship lasts and wish them all the best.
It's on digitalspy. Take that whichever way you want.Quote:
