There's no doubt former EastEnders star, Danniella Westbrook, has been having a tough time of it lately.

The 41-year-old star has hit the headlines in recent months after declaring bankruptcy, admitting to a drug relapse and experiencing major relationship issues with ex-boyfriend Tom Richards.

So it's no surprise that Danniella wants to wipe the slate clean and, according to reports she's doing so by changing careers and staring all over again.

Having accepted a job as a barmaid, the mum-of-two is pulling pints at the The Bill Nicholson pub in London and by the sounds of things, the troubled star is delighted with the new career move.

Taking to Twitter to thank customers for their support as she learns the ropes, the actress wrote: "The locals in @thebillynicn17 are the nicest bunch ever. Always respectful 2 me even though I'm a WestHam girl."

According to one of the regulars Danniella is doing her best to adjust to the career change, telling The Sun: "Danniella has only just started here. She is friendly to the punters but it's a fall from grace from what she was in the past. It's a typical lads' football pub."

As long as Danniella is happy, that's all that matters!

It certainly looks like Georgia Kousolou is having a hard time dealing with issues in her relationship with Tommy Mallet right now.

In tonight's show, the normally sassy Georgia is seen weeping when she and Tommy meet up to discuss their problems.

The boutique owner is said to be feeling increasingly isolated from Tommy as he appears to invest more time in his nightclub than their relationship, an issue which the pair decide to hash out over dinner in the latest episode of the hit reality TV show.

Having opened up to co-star Lydia about her concerns, the troubled Georgia admitted that her and Tommy's relationship has taken a nosedive, saying: "That club has took over our lives. We're not spending no quality time together. It's hard."

Despite acknowledging that the issue needs major attention, Georgia has faith that they will get through it, saying: "I love him so much and we're so perfect." Aw, poor Georgia.

Lets see how the heart-to-heart over dinner goes.

If there's one star who seems to be taking pregnancy in her stride and enjoying every minute of it, it's Olympic swimmer Rebecca Adlington.

Taking to Instagram to prove just how much craic she and her other half Harry are having with this whole baby thing, the gorgeous athlete posted a shot of them comparing 'baby bumps'.

Sporting matching black work-out gear, the couple posed for a selfie in a gym mirror and proved that their competitive streak isn't reserved for the swimming pool.

Captioning the cute shot: "He's so competitive, he had to have the bigger bump!! #whoworeitbest #bumpoff @harryneeds", Rebecca gave us yet another reason to love her.

26-year-old Rebecca will be welcoming their much-anticipated arrival on the 4th of June and by the looks of Harry's Instagram, he can't wait that long.

Sharing yet another ridiculously cute photo on social media, good-humoured Harry posed with possibly the teeniest pair of swimming togs we've ever seen and left us in no doubt that he plans for his little one to take after its parents.

The professional swimmer captioned the snap: "Had to buy this costume with @beckyadlington in preparation for @beckyswimstars lessons #prouddad #notevenborn yet #willcry #notevengotanameyet #knobofadad"
 

Oh, we heart them!

The That's My Goal and No You Hang Up singer, who shot to fame after winning the long-running talent show in 2005, is set to make his mark on the world of acting and where better to do it than the famous cobbled streets of Weatherfield?!

At the age of 18, the talented Margot Robbie earned a role on the set of popular Aussie soap Neighbours, a show which Leonardo Di Caprio became very interested in after meeting the blonde actress.

Opening up about her Wolf of Wall Street co-star, Margot revealed: "When I started on The Wolf, Leo and Martin Scorcese had heard of Neighbours and were aware of what it was, but they hadn't seen any epsiodes."

Determined to remedy that oversight, the Hollywood star did what any of us would do in that situation and immediately went online to school himself on the ins and outs of Ramsey Street.

Admitting that the theme song of the long-running Australian soap could be heard on the set of the 2014 film, 24-year-old Margot chatted about Leo's interest in her past roles.

Appearing at the soap's 30th anniversary reunion, Margot told the Sunday Telegraph that Leo was determined to get to grips with her character Donna Freedman on Neighbours, saying: "He went on YouTube and watched a few clips."

How nervous would you be having Oscar-nominated (eek- touchy subject) Leonardo Di Caprio check out your CV?!

Everybody's favourite TV presenter, Dermot O'Leary, has had a close call this weekend following a car accident in Kenya.

The 41-year-old X Factor star was filming for Comic Relief when a passing vehicle careered off the road, almost crashing into the makeshift beds Dermot and a group of homeless boys were occupying.

Immediately taking to social media to assure the public that both the boys and Dermot survived the frightening incident, Comic Relief staff tweeted: "A car crashed into a ditch feet away from the boys. Everyone is fine, but a big lucky escape."

Dermot, who was sleeping rough with youngsters Fred, Maurice and Hannington, was said to be shaken but unharmed following the terrifying incident.

The danger associated with sleeping rough by busy roads was proven following the accident, with the charity having earlier tweeted: "It's an incredibly vulnerable place to sleep which is why they stick together. The cars, motorbikes and rickshaws are so close the noise is something to behold."

The star also took to Twitter to thank fans and followers for their support in the aftermath of the frightening event and paid tribute to the youngsters he befriended during filming.

 Fingers crossed the rest of the trip goes off without a hitch.

It has been more than a year since Paula Patton and Robin Thicke separated. 

The couple had been together for over 21 years, having met as teenagers, and married for nine years. 

Following the success of Blurred Lines, it seems that Robin’s behaviour such as being photographed with his hand on a fan’s bum, and other rumours began to take a toll on their long-term relationship and their separation was announced last February. 

Then, back in October 2014, Paula filed for divorce from Robin and the former couple share custody of their five-year-old son, Julian. 

Despite Robin’s huge efforts to get his former love back and even naming his album after her, it seems like the pair are over for good. 

Now, Paula has opened up about the split, admitting on Good Morning America that it hasn’t been easy: “I mean, the truth is, it has been challenging. But it’s been a year of growth … learning about new things. I feel like everything happens for a reason and then you have to move on and grow from there.”

Paula also said that their son, Julian, has made the split that bit easier to get through: “The thing is, you can’t wallow in sadness or stay in bed when you have a child. And they’re so full of life and wonder. And he brings me so much joy.”

Robin is also facing some serious hardship at the moment as he and Pharrell Williams are currently on trial accused by Marvin Gaye’s family of copying Gaye’s 1977 hit, Got To Give It Up on their Blurred Lines hit.

Kim Kardashian is no stranger to making headlines, but her new blonde ‘do has gotten a LOT more attention that anyone had anticipated!

Of course, there were those who didn’t think much of her new look – with some hilarious comparisons to Draco Malfoy made by even Tom Felton himself. 

 

So apparently Kanye has a Draco fetish….#muse

However, there were also a lot of people who love Kim’s new look and may want to try it out for themselves. 

In her Instagram post unveiling the new platinum colour, Kim pointed out that getting her hair, which is naturally very dark, blonde “in one try” was definitely “not an easy task.”

Now, the colourist behind the blonde hue has spoken about how you can go Kim K blonde too, if you want to that is. 

Talking to The Huffington Post, Lorri Goddard said: “We tossed around ideas of hues and application and all decided on the end result. It is extremely difficult to take dark hair to platinum as it shifts the condition of the hair but hair can be kept strong if the proper conditions are taken. Always start with a strand test to establish if hair is strong enough to take the platinum journey and begin the hair process away from the scalp working with ends first as the scalp exudes heat, which quickens the process.”

Lorri also advised people seeking out Kim’s look to leave hair uncoloured for months prior to the big change: “Make sure hair is freshly cut and preferably uncoloured for three to six months as that will yield the best results.”

So, there we have it ladies! Would you be tempted to go platinum?!

It's been less than a week since the story broke that TOWIE's Dan Osborne may be facing legal trouble following an audio handed to the police. 

On the recording, which was obtained by The Sun, a voice said to be Dan's could be heard in conversation with his ex-girlfriend and mother of his son, Megan. 

Using shocking language and threats, the voice said to be Dan's can be heard saying: "Fo f*** yourself" and threatening to stab Megan if she slept with another man. 

Dan also claimed on the clip that he was not in a relationship with actress Jacqueline Jossa, who was expecting his child at the time. 

Following the tape being handed over to the police, Dan was temporarily axed from the TOWIE set until everything was sorted out. No charges have been brought against him. 

Now, the reality TV star has acknowledged the recording and apologised publically for it with The Mirror reporting: 

"It has taken me a while to find the right words but I would like to say that I am truly sorry to anyone who was offended by what they heard.I am unable to talk about the difficulties with my current family situation but I am taking steps to resolve it to achieve the best outcome for my son. I am ashamed and embarrassed that I allowed myself to reach such a dark place that I behaved in a way that even I didn't recognise."

Dan went on in his statement to say that there are two sides to every story when it comes to a situation such as this one: 

"While I acknowledge that there is absolutely no excuse for my deeply regrettable behaviour, I plead for some understanding that I had no intention of violence. There are always two sides to every story and all of my friends and family who are close to me know that I’m not a violent person capable of anything like this. My words were said in anger and desperation at a very difficult time."

Finishing up, the reality TV star apologised to the TOWIE cast and crew regarding his behaviour and declared that he is taking a short break to concentrate on his family:

"I love my son Teddy very much and I'm doing all that I can to see him as often as possible. I'm also very sorry to everyone at TOWIE that I have let down and thank them for their understanding and support while I take a short break to concentrate on my family."

Dan and his girlfriend, Jacqueline welcomed baby Ella only weeks ago.
