Three months ago, the Moss family had a gathering at a pub in Notting Hill, West London.Organised by Nick, Kate Moss’s younger brother, it offered a rare chance for Kate to come together with her wayward half-sister Lottie — along with Peter, their father, and his second wife Inger.It was hoped model Kate, 49, who has been on the cover of Vogue more than 40 times, might quietly forgive 25-year old Lottie, who makes money by stripping off for racy snaps on tawdry website OnlyFans.You might wonder what tattooed Lottie must be forgiven for. Those in Kate’s camp say the…
Actress Lysette Anthony – hailed as the ‘face of the 1980s’ by photographer David Bailey – has found love with a handsome former co-star who she first kissed on screen 33 years ago.In a romantic twist which could have come straight from one of the romances in which she made her name, twice-divorced Lysette has fallen ‘head over heels’ for actor Marcus Gilbert, most famous for playing the swoonsome Rupert Campbell-Black in a 1993 TV adaptation of Jilly Cooper’s Riders.A friend of the actress, 59, whose last divorce was back in 2003, tells me: ‘It’s a serious romance and has…

The legal beef between WAGS Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy had the nation transfixed last summer. And it appears to be far from over as hostilities are brewing over Mrs Rooney’s forthcoming three part big bucks tell all documentary about the affair.The issue is that the show, made by Dorothy Street pictures for Disney +, is understood to have the title Wagatha Christie: Coleen’s Story.However earlier this year Ms Vardy applied for a trademark on the phrase ‘Wagatha Christie’ which she was granted.The view of her side is that Coleen isn’t allowed to use it – and neither is Disney…
Are these the first rays of hope? Glimmerings that a turning point has at last been reached? I am speaking of yesterday’s encouraging inflation figures.I don’t know about you, but when I heard that inflation had fallen to 6.8 per cent, after dropping to 7.9 per cent last month, I suddenly felt quite a lot better about the world. And that was before England’s women won their semi-final game against Australia!Naturally I understand that the fall in inflation has little to do with the Government. It’s almost entirely the result of the Bank of England’s persistent raising of interest rates…
DAILY MAIL COMMENT: How can 2.5million be incapable of work?By Daily Mail Comment Published: 19:24 EDT, 15 August 2023 | Updated: 06:34 EDT, 16 August 2023 At first glance, the record 7.8 per cent rise in wages announced yesterday looks like a bonanza for British workers. But with inflation still at 7.9 per cent, the increase is swallowed up by soaring household costs.The surge in wages also presents a dilemma for the Bank of England. More money going into the system means there is a danger that rising consumer spending will fuel inflation.If that happens, the Bank may be tempted…

When he was cleared of criminal charges last month, double Oscar-winner Kevin Spacey celebrated with drinks at the Groucho Club and later a dinner with theatrical titan Trevor Nunn.However, it can be revealed that many of his peers who lionised Spacey when he was artistic director of the Old Vic from 2004 to 2015 have since distanced themselves from the actor – who explained away the sexual assault allegations by saying that he was just a ‘big flirt’ (an explanation accepted by the jury).Not one of the figures who were in his London clique has been willing to speak up…
MAIL ON SUNDAY COMMENT: Can Suella succeed where other Ministers have woefully failed?By Mail on Sunday Comment Published: 18:06 EDT, 5 August 2023 | Updated: 18:07 EDT, 5 August 2023 Aren’t you very weary of Government promises to solve the problem of illicit migration into this country? The Mail on Sunday certainly is, and we are sorry to have to return to the topic. But we feel we must.For more than ten years the Conservatives’ immigration policy has been as convincing as one of those recorded messages that trills, ‘Your call is important to us. One of our representatives will…
