Kaley Cuoco doing ‘amazing’


Kaley Cuoco is doing "amazing" since splitting from Ryan Sweeting.
The 29-year-old actress and her tennis player husband announced last week they had separated after 21 months of marriage, and she is being supported through her heartache by her friends and family, including her 'Big Bang Theory' co-stars.
Asked how Kaley is feeling, co-star Mayim Bialik told E! News: "Kaley's amazing. She has amazing friends, she has amazing family.
"We love her to pieces and we give her as much joy and laughs as we give everybody who sees the stuff that we do but she gets to experience it off camera."
Kaley cited "irreconcilable differences" when filing for divorce earlier this week.
She and 28-year-old Ryan had signed a pre-nuptial agreement one month before their marriage on December 31, 2013 and she has listed their date of separation as September 3, 2015.
Kaley's net worth is approximately $45 million while Ryan is believed to be worth $2 million.
Her divorce filing states that property and spousal support information is detailed in the pre-nuptial agreement.
It was recently claimed that Kaley and Ryan had tried to reignite the spark between them, but there was clear "tension" whenever they went out together recently.
A source said: "The few times Kaley and Ryan were out together recently, the tension was noticeable. You could tell the honeymoon phase had ended.
"It seemed they were trying to work out their marriage by going on dates, but they both seemed miserable."
Following news of the split, Kaley deleted all traces of her estranged husband on Instagram and unfollowed him across her various social media accounts.

Taylor Swift’s 50k donation to cancer victim


Taylor Swift has donated $50,000 to help her backing dancer's cancer-stricken nephew.
The generous star gave the money to a fund set up for 13-month-old Ayden, who is the nephew of Kim 'Toshi' Davidson, one of Taylor's dancers on her '1989' world tour, and also left a message on the GoFundMe page set up to help him.
She wrote: ""Baby Ayden, I'm lucky enough to perform with your uncle Toshi on tour. All of us are praying for you and your mama and sending so much love your way. Love, Taylor."
An overwhelmed Toshi shared an Instagram showing Taylor's donation and wrote: "So I get off the plane in Toronto and this is the first thing I see. @taylorswift is an angel and my family and I can't thank her enough ... She is such an incredible human being ... This will help Lil Toshi in this time of need ... Let's pray for him to beat this ... This unexpected gift is truly a blessing."
A message posted on the charity page thanked both Taylor and Toshi for their help.
The message said: "Thank you so much to Ayden's uncle Toshi and Taylor Swift for their generous donation, which will allow Lindsey to focus on Ayden and be with him day and night without having to leave his side. Thank you so much...words cannot express the deep gratitude we have for you two and everyone that is a part of TEAM AYDEN who have prayed and contributed to the cause! God Bless all of you!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!"
This is not the first time Taylor has given money to those in need. In July she donated $50,000 to 11-year-old Naomi Oakes after she was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia and in June, she gave $15,000 to a family that was left devastated by a horrific car crash.

Sandra Bullock romance heats up


Sandra Bullock and Bryan Randall have discussed "spending the rest of their lives together".
The 51-year-old Oscar winner and the 49-year-old photographer have only been dating for a few months but things are already serious between them.
A source told E! News: "Sandra and Bryan have a very busy schedule, so the time they do have, they are with each other. They have discussed spending the rest of their life together, but taking day by day and just enjoying each other. Sandra couldn't ask for a better guy. They have a great dialogue when together and say 'I love you' very fluidly."
And Bryan has also been spending time with Sandra's son Louis, who recently started kindergarten, while Sandra has gotten to know Bryan's daughter.
The insider said: "Bryan has been an amazing support system to her and Louis. They are completely in love and Bryan is by her side.
"Sandra and Bryan are getting serious and spending a good amount of time together. Sandra has met Bryan's daughter and family and loves everything about them."

Ella Eyre has DIY skilled boyfriend


Ella Eyre's boyfriend Lewi Morgan is her DIY hero.
The 'Together' singer and the Rixton drummer have been an item for most of 2015 and Ella has revealed her hunky man has been helping out around her apartment by putting together flat-pack furniture for her.
The loved-up pair have also taken a major step in their relationship and proven they're getting serious by going together to Ikea, the popular Swedish home furnishings store.
Speaking at the MOBO Awards nominations announcement in London on Wednesday (30.09.15) - which he attended with her - she told BANG Showbiz: "Lewi is good, he's here. He's between albums at the moment so he's spending a lot of time building things in my house.
"We bought a wardrobe this week which took ages to put together! It's really cool, I needed it because I'm running out of space. He built it and I was doing more of the clearing away, getting rid of the packaging and then organising everything else that was going in the wardrobe so it was a team effort, I think!
"We also went to Ikea the other night and we spent two hours there and came away with one scrubbing brush. Going to Ikea is more about going for the meatballs, isn't it? Who doesn't enjoy Ikea meatballs! He had never been to Ikea before so it was great; it was the best day ever. I drive a little Fiat 500 so I was never going to fit anything in it anyway."
When asked if he minds doing so much DIY for her, Ella said with a smile: "He's got to be OK with it! Well, he's still around so he must be."
Although Lewi spends a lot time at Ella's London apartment, he is yet to officially move in and that suits the 21-year-old pop beauty because she loves staying at his home in Manchester.
She said: "It may as well be the two of us living there, but he still lives in Manchester and I love it in Manchester so I'm always back and forth."
Although Ella and Lewi have to miss out on time together because of their busy careers she has devised a plan to use their jobs so they can hang out with one another.
She said: "I drag him to events, it's just nice to spend any time that we can together really."
Ella is up for Best Female at the 20th MOBO Awards which take place on Wednesday November 4 at Leeds' First Direct Arena.




Claire Danes feels she has ‘limb missing’ when she’s away from son


Claire Danes feels like she has a "limb missing" when she's away from her son.
The 36-year-old actress usually travels with husband Hugh Dancy and their two-year-old son Cyrus, but while she was filming 'Homeland' in Germany, the actor took their little boy to France with his parents and, though Claire enjoyed having some "freedom", she also found the separation "incredibly challenging."
She said: "It's the first time I've been away from both my boys for more than a night. It's incredibly challenging, more than I ever anticipated - and confusing.
"In some ways it's great to have so much freedom. My first day I had off, I just hit the sales."
She added: "But there's also this fear that I'm free-falling, that there's a limb missing. I'm constantly calming myself down, like, 'It's OK, it's OK.' "
The last season of 'Homeland' was Claire's first without co-star Damian Lewis and she "really, really misses" his presence on the set of the drama series.
Asked how she felt filming without him, she said told Marie Claire magazine: "[It's] kind of scary. I knew that taking it on was possible, but I really, really missed and continue to miss [Damian]. He's very charming and a bit of a [joker]. I don't have the same rah-rah spirit on set, which I'm always embarrassed about. He would do the tap dancing, which I found helpful and now I'm like, '...Oh.' "
And the actress would love to work with her former co-star again on a different project.
She added: "It would be so fun to do that in a different story and under different guises."

Perrie Edwards slams Cheryl Fernadez-Versini’s critics


Perrie Edwards has told Cheryl Fernandez-Versini's critics to "f**k off."
The Little Mix singer, 22, thinks the 'X Factor' judge is "just wonderful to look at" and can't believe she has come under fire for her slender frame.
Asked about the body-shaming the former Girls Aloud singer has been subjected to in recent months, the blonde beauty said: "I love Cheryl, she's incredible.
"She's just wonderful to look at, isn't she? Do y'know what I say to those bodyshamers? F**k off and leave my Chezza alone."
Cheryl, 32, previously rubbished claims she's anorexic and admitted the death of her husband Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini's father was partly to blame for her weight loss, but insisted she is fine now.
Perrie's bandmate Jesy Nelson claims they understand what Cheryl is going through because they have all faced the same kind of scrutiny when it comes to their figures.
She told Yahoo! Celebrity: "We just try to forget about any nasty comments really. We like to eat food and so does everybody else, and if we put on weight we put on weight and if we lose weight we lose weight.
"Everybody has this preconception that you're supposed to be perfect looking but nobody is perfect."

Cindy Crawford’s daughter looks up to Kendall Jenner


Cindy Crawford's daughter Kaia Gerber looks up to Kendall Jenner.
The 49-year-old star says her 14 year old "loves" the 19-year-old beauty, who is currently one of the world's most in-demand models, and follows her on Instagram, but is glad she still turns to her for advice when it comes to the fashion industry.
The brunette beauty, who also has son Presley, 16, with husband Rande Gerber, told E! News: "She's such a great girl, both my kids are incredible. And Kaia's smart, she's got her head on straight.
"They see so much on Instagram, so yes, she's interested in fashion, loves Kendall Jenner. So she's gotten a few opportunities to do little modeling things, and at least in this one area of her life she'll take my advice."
Kendall recently admitted Cindy is her own beauty icon.
She told Yahoo! Beauty: "I think Cindy Crawford is awesome. I love her style."
Kaia has already landed a few high profile modelling jobs and has approximately 200,000 followers on Instagram, but Cindy is eager for her to enjoy her childhood.
The 'Becoming' author said: "I'm happy that she loves doing it in little bits and pieces, but my main message to her is to be 14. Enjoy where you are now because that [her career] will wait."

Sandra Bullock’s boyfriend moves in


Sandra Bullock's boyfriend Byran Randall has moved into her Los Angeles home.
The 49-year-old photographer, who has been dating the Oscar winner, 51, for less than a year, recently "moved into Sandra's house" in Beverly Hills, which she also shares with five-year-old son Louis.
A source said while Bryan is now comfortably ensconced in the 'Our Brand Is Crisis' star's seven-bedroom, 8,000-square-foot estate, he "still has his [own] place" elsewhere in the city.
The couple were recently spotted enjoying a double date in Austin, Texas with newlyweds Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux, but usually prefer quiet evenings in.
The insider told Us Weekly magazine: "Bryan and Sandra are total homebodies."
While her romance is going from strength to strength, the 'Gravity' star's son is still her number one priority.
Another friend said: "Sandra is a great mom. She's very attentive."
The brunette beauty recently admitted she broke down in tears when Louis started school.
She said: "Kindergarten started four days ago. Once again, I'm crying. All I did was cry this week. I didn't let him see it. I did the the drop off, I was strong, and then I turned with all the other parents and like [started weeping].
"Of course, whatever song was on the radio was extra poignant. I was a mess, but I'm always a mess."

Emily Blunt ‘can’t’ talk about split from Michael Bublé


Emily Blunt still "can't" talk about rumours Michael Bublé cheated on her.
The 32-year-old actress, who split from the Canadian singer in 2008 after three years together amid allegations he had been unfaithful, admits their split was "complicated" and she doesn't feel comfortable discussing it.
Asked about speculation surrounding their break-up, the 'Into the Woods' star, who has 19-month-old daughter Hazel with husband John Krasinski, said: "I don't know, it's complicated. I never want to talk about it. I can't do it."
But Emily insists the pair "had a good time" together and she still loves the 40-year-old star's family, especially his mother Amber.
The 'Sicario' star told Howard Stern on his SiriusXM radio show: "I loved his family. I love his family. I still do."
The 'Home' hitmaker previously hinted he was to blame for his split from the British actress and claimed it completely changed him.
Speaking earlier this year, he said: "I was a jerk and I was careless and reckless with the hearts of women I was with. And I got my karma. I earned it. I got my butt and heart kicked and it hurt me enough that I looked in the mirror and I didn't want it to happen again. If I wanted to be a happy guy and really fall in love, I would have to love myself."
While Emily went on to marry former 'The Office' USA star John in 2010, Michael is currently expecting his second child with Argentinian wife Luisana Lopilato, whom he wed in 2011.
