Growing older means you naturally let go of some aspects of your appearance, mainly because you have better things to be worrying about, plus you have a boyfriend…

You don’t wear make-up
Do you find yourself leaving the house without make-up on more than you used to? Is it more of a hassle to put it on than to not? Do you go out to clubs with the least amount of make-up you can get away with, simply because you couldn’t be bothered?  Eek, sounds like you’re letting your beauty regime slip.

You are constantly hiding your knotted hair
The messy thrown up hairstyle is pretty trendy right now; however, it is not a good look if you are only doing it to simply hide unwashed, knotty hair. Grab a brush and get it together.

Chipped nail polish
You wouldn’t dare walk out of the house with chipped nail polish when you are younger but  things have changed. Sure who has the time, or the money, nowadays to go the beautician? Plus you’re way too lazy to pick up the polish and fix it yourself.

We doubt married life is everything Millie Mackintosh thought it would be.

The Made in Chelsea star must be feeling really awful after husband Professor Green insinuated she’s the reason he hasn’t been able to record new music.

The pair have had a rocky six months, with numerous reports of trouble in their relationship, and this latest event definitely won’t help to squash those rumours.

Addressing his decision to cancel his upcoming tour, Professor Green said: “I wanted an album out last October but as most of you are aware a lot has happened in my wonderfully colourful day to day life. I got hit by a car, got married and then had my life turned upside down by an entirely unfounded arrest for something which I was subsequently not charged.”

Having your husband attribute his work problems to your wedding definitely wouldn’t put you in a good mood, but the worst part is still to come.

The rapper then went on to say: “I’m not gonna come out and perform the same set I have been since the last album, it wouldn’t be fair to you – at least not until I’m doing a greatest hits tour when I’m on my third marriage, have twelve kids and a huge tax bill,” he added.

We really hope that “third marriage” bit was a joke…

Kill Bill star Uma Thurman has called off her engagement to French financier Arpad Busson.

The pair, who have a 21-month-old daughter together, reportedly decided to end their relationship, which began in 2007.

Uma and Arpad called off their engagement once before, separating briefly in 2009, but decided to reconcile.

However, it’s not all heartbreak this morning – former EastEnders actor Gary Lucy has announced his engagement to long-time partner and hospice worker, Natasha Gray.

The pair have been together for 10 years and look set to make it official this November.

And that’s not all!

The actor also revealed that the couple would like to add a third child to their brood, adding: “It would be nice to have a honeymoon baby.”

Hormones are tricky little devils.

It sometimes feel like we’re at their total mercy, and anything can set them off.

The chemical messengers buzzing around inside you pretty much rule your entire system – your appetite, weight, sex drive, cycle, and more.

But hormonal weirdness isn’t just a random occurrence over which you have no control.

Check out the habits that can mess with them.

1. Eating too much chocolate
Eating foods with too much added sugar is directly linked to weight gain and excess pounds can lead your body to become resistant to insulin, the hormone that moves sugar into your bloodstream so your cells can get the energy they need.

2. Stressing out late at night
Normally, levels of the stress hormone cortisol drop at night, which helps you wind down and sleep. But becoming anxious or tense in the p.m. means your cortisol levels keep surging, so you’re too wired to catch Zzz’s.

3. Drinking coffee after 5pm
Cortisol is the culprit again here! Caffeine signals to your body to boost production of cortisol, which can make you feel anxious and definitely not in a sleep-well mindset. Limit yourself to no more than two regular-size cups of coffee a day, preferably before 3 or 4pm.

4. Crash diets
A plunge in body-fat levels due to either a super low-calorie weight-loss regimen or intense exercise sessions lowers estrogen levels, halting your cycle until your body fat returns to a healthy level. Scary stuff.

5. Easing PMS with a sweet treat
Besides leaving you wired, sugar also does a number on brain chemicals that are already thrown for a loop during your PMS week. If your premenstrual symptoms leave you cranky, sugar will just make you feel more out of sorts.

Paul Walker’s girlfriend, Jasmine Pilchard Gosnell has been revealed to be attending grief counselling following her boyfriend’s tragic death in 2013.

Jasmine’s father, Casey revealed he had to put the 23-year-old in counselling, as she was unable to imagine a life without the actor, who died in a car crash five months ago.

“I have her in grief counselling. You have to understand that she is still terribly wounded by Paul’s death and will be for a long time.”

Jasmine has never spoken publically of Paul’s death but recently posted a worrying cryptic status on Facebook.

“I walk the streets of one.”

Jasmine met Paul when she was 16 but the 17 year gap was never a problem in their relationship. She was even a step-mom to Paul’s daughter, Meadow.

Casey said that Jasmine wasn’t ready to speak openly about Paul’s death or her relationship with him but after counselling, it could be a possibility.

“Maybe one day she’ll be ready to talk about Paul but she’s not there yet. She’s trying to deal with her loss – it’s been very hard for her. But she has her family and we’re trying to help and support her as much as we can.”

If you love nothing more than the wind in your hair than a cycling day is just for you. Ireland is an abundance of beautiful bike trails and the road less travelled, so pop on your helmet, grab your bike and hit one of these beautiful trails:

Kingfisher cycling trail
The Kingfisher cycling trail is a route covering over 480km so it is definitely not for the novice cyclist, although you could probably hit one of the shorter trails if you didn’t think you were up to it. Te route takes you through lakelands, mountain climbs, canals and country lanes. The route is signposted and if you get tired you could always bunk into one of the many accommodations along the way.

Killarney National Park Loop
This is a great route if you haven’t been on your bike in a while, as it only covers a distance of about 28km. Most of the cycle track is on pavement and you will get to see a whole host of attractions including Ross Castle, Muckross House and Torc Waterfalls.

Ring of Kerry
Bet you never thought when you were in school that you would ever consider cycling the Ring of Kerry!  Over the 62km you will be taken through the interior of the Iveagh Peninsula, down deserted roads and through beautiful countryside.

Ever since the hit sitcom finished over ten years ago, there have been constant rumours surfacing that a Friends reunion could finally take place.

But it seems Courtney Cox squashed all our reunion hopes, when the actress said “its not gonna happen.”

Courtney was appearing on American chat show, The Late Show with David Letterman when questioned on the possibility of a reunion. But the 49-year-old actress revealed it was too difficult to organise, as everyone is busy with their new schedules.

“It doesn’t happen. I mean, I can get the girls to come, maybe Matthew Perry, Matt LeBlanc cancelled last time, Schwimmer lives here, so it’s just not going to happen.”

As heart-breaking as that is to hear, we can still dream that our six favourites might get together some day in the future.

Singer, Rita Ora has revealed that she regularly shops at Penneys. Rita said she prefers the budget clothes so much more, to all the designer gear she usually receives.

Rita says she goes to the discount store in disguise to grab some bargains.

“Sometimes I put on a hoody and shades and go into Primark (Penneys in the UK).”

The 23-year-old singer proved she was a woman of our own hearts, as she said she usually stocks up on Penneys’ underwear and socks, before she heads on tour.

“Last time, I bought underwear and socks cos I was on tour and I’d run out of everything.”

Can’t say we blame you Rita, but not sure we would choose Penneys’ gear instead of designer clothes though.

Kode magazine has said that Lindsay Lohan revealed in an exclusive interview with them, that she was dating a married man with kids.

The Kode journalist also claimed that the star had relapsed, as she was drinking a vodka on the rocks throughout the interview.

But Lindsay’s rep has come out and said that Kode had exaggerated what took place. The 27-year-old’s rep went onto say, that Lindsay had never met the journalist in person, as the interview was conducted via e-mail.

“Lindsay never spoke to any journalist at Kode. The interview was completed via email. We have no comprehension on why a journalist would fabricate this content and distribute it in such an irresponsible way.”

But Kode’s editor is not backing down insisting that what they’ve reported in the interview with Lindsay actually took place.

“I have sworn testimonies that it took place that back up everything.”

Lindsay apparently bad mouthed several celebrities in the interview, including Jennifer Lawrence. Lohan said that the Oscar winning actress is “fake” and sleeps around to get roles.

If the interview is true, it doesn’t look good for Lohan.
