In 2008, Carole opened up in a candid interview about her life and being considered as "beautiful".
Speaking to The Independent, she said: "I first noticed that when I was about 13. I was very shy.
"Being considered beautiful, I always felt that people were waiting for something more," she added.
She went on: "I imagined you were supposed to have an intellectual ability – and I'm making no claims here – proportional to your supposed good looks.
"I think that's what I meant when I was talking about beauty.
"I felt I should be proving I deserved the attention.
"That I should be doing something special," she candidly said.

Molly-Mae fails to raise a smile as she prepares for Jet2 flight with Tommy Fury and daughter Bambi - after being labelled 'out of touch' for claiming she 'hasn't done one fun thing' all summer (despite spending much of it abroad)

Molly-Mae Hague didn't look happy as she prepared for her latest overseas break on Thursday, shortly after claiming her summer has been 'no fun' - despite spending much of it on holiday. To date, the former Love Island star has spent the warmer months enjoying first class trips to Dubai, Paris, Saint Tropez and Wimbledon 's Centre Court, where she was greeted like Hollywood royalty after being invited by tournament sponsor Evian water. But the evidently hard to please influencer has once again ruffled feathers across social media by claiming her summer has, thus far, been boring. 'I haven't socialised once,' she told her older sister Zoe in a recent YouTube vlog. 'I haven't done one social, fun thing... I haven't a life.' Little wonder then, that Molly-Mae, 26, looked restless as she prepared to board a Jet2 flight with partner Tommy Fury and their daughter Bambi after arriving at a busy Manchester Airport. The influencer had her hands full with Bambi's empty pushchair and the family luggage while Tommy, 26, walked hand-in-hand with their young daughter, two. And there wasn't a smile to be seen as she waited at check-in with her family before helpful Jet2 staff came to their assistance. The holiday is the latest in a series of overseas trips for Molly-Mae, but neither the art and architecture of Paris, the sun-kissed glamour of Dubai nor the sweeping Mediterranean coastline of Saint Tropez have impressed. 'I will get to the end of summer without having done one fun thing,' she told her sister in July. 'Zoe, I haven't socialised once. I am going to get to the end of this summer, I haven't done one social fun thing.' The globe-trotting influencer added: 'I haven't a life. I haven't a life. It's not good. 'It's all kids related, if it's not work and kids I am not doing anything. It's not good. People going for a drink with their friends or to a beer garden. 'Oh my gosh, I don't remember the last time I did my hair and makeup and put an outfit on for something that wasn't work related. 'I don't do anything. Lets normalise it. For the girls that are going to get to the end of summer and not done one fun thing.' There wasn't a smile to be seen as she waited at check-in with her family before helpful Jet2 staff came to their assistance However Molly-Mae did accept that her recent trip to Wimbledon, during which she did indeed wear make-up and a £3,000 Dior dress, was a 'fun' occasion. She said: 'No that's a lie because people are going to say "You went to London in your last vlog and had a ball," and I did.' Unsurprisingly, Molly-Mae's latest comments didn't go down well with her two million-plus YouTube subscribers, with many claiming she was 'out of touch', 'tone-deaf' and 'always moaning'. The influencer started strong this summer by signing a seven-figure deal with consumer goods firm Unilever and starring in a new campaign for its detergent brand, Persil and Comfort, in May. She fronted a new 'delicate' fragrance range with her toddler Bambi, who made her campaign debut in a fluffy pink jumper and ballerina tutu. Putting her name behind their 'Heaven Scent' non-bio capsules, fabric conditioner and a scent booster elixir, Molly-Mae said: 'I can be really protective of what I use at home, especially since having Bambi. 'My skin's always been sensitive, so I need products I know are kind to my skin but still leave everything smelling amazing and this range honestly does both.' But it wasn't all work though as Molly-Mae jetted off on her sixth holiday of the year – once again to Dubai. She and Tommy travelled business class to one of the most luxurious hotels in the UAE, the five-star Jumeirah Al Naseem, where rooms cost a whopping £13,897 per night. The hotel has its own private 2km beach, a turtle rehabilitation sanctuary and an infinity pool – which the couple were pictured canoodling in. If that wasn't enough time away from home, that month Molly-Mae also visited private members' club Soho Farmhouse in the Cotswolds. She's not the first celebrity to be drawn to the £500-a-night retreat, with the Beckhams, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, and Taylor Swift also fans. Molly-Mae treated herself to a couple of nights in one of the cabins, where members can enjoy spa facilities, country bike rides and tennis. For her final trip in May, she flew on a private jet to Disneyland Paris to celebrate her 26th birthday alongside Tommy, their daughter and some of her best friends. She shared pictures from inside the jet alongside photos complete with birthday cake, balloons and plenty of Minnie Mouse ears. Come June, Molly-Mae told her YouTube followers she was jetting off yet again. First to Germany for two nights for a 'secret project' and then on to the South of France to shoot the summer campaign for her clothing brand Maebe. Basking in the sunshine at a luxury villa in St Tropez, the influencer shared various snaps of herself lounging on sunbeds and dining at luxury restaurants. Later that month, Molly-Mae was whisked back to the Cotswolds for a 'surprise staycation'. This time, she and Tommy stayed at the lavish £700-a-night hotel Estelle Manor which has a swimming pool, four restaurants, spa and farm on site. On her Instagram stories she showed off the plush accommodation as well as swimming in the pool with daughter Bambi. July didn't see Molly-Mae slow down either, as a trip to London beckoned. After a day shopping with friends and staying at the luxury Corinthia hotel in London, she attended Wimbledon as a guest of Evian water. On Sunday, she gave a tearful defence of her comments in a separate video. She told followers: 'I don't care who tells me I am out of touch with reality or all this stuff that's going on on TikTok at the minute... I don't care. I'm not going to not talk about it.'

Larry Lamb, 77, confesses he is 'thinking more about death' and feels the end is near as he gushes over spending important moments with his daughters

Larry Lamb has revealed he feels the end is near as he candidly opened up about his mortality and admitted death is on his mind. The Gavin and Stacey star, 77, will celebrate his 78th birthday in October, as he confessed: 'The older I get the more I think about how much I love life, but the more I think about how much I love life, the more it makes me think about death.' Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, Larry, who lives the majority of his time in Normandy, explained that he each year he and his friend go to tidy up the graves in a graveyard. Revealing how the visit made him confront his mortality he said: 'It all started me thinking more about facing it realistically, because sadly, I don't want to sign up for that bit at all, but in the end you are going to have to.' Larry has four children, including 45-year-old TV presenter George Lamb, and daughters Vanessa, 56, Eloise, 26, and Eva, 22. Discussing his close bond with his children he gushed how important it is for him to spend as much time with them as he can. Discussing his close bond with his children he gushed how important it is for him to spend as much time with them as he can (pictured with his daughters Eloise, 26, and Eva, 22 in 2017) 'I couldn't get home for Father's Day this year, so my two baby daughters - both in their twenties - insisted that we have a belated celebration the next Sunday. 'Marking Mother's and Father's Day is very important for them, because the older I get, of course the more important it is for me, and they always give me a meaningful, little gift that they chose between them.' He continued: 'It just becomes more and more obvious to me that it's an opportunity for them to write me a card or a letter and to tell me exactly how much they love me, and why. 'So I sat there basking in their love, in the sunshine and just realising how lucky I was, and what makes me, and drives me to keep doing whatever I can, to stay alive for as long as I can to give them a dad for as long as I can. 'Somewhere out there – I see it now and again, flickering down the end of its kind of long, nicely illustrated tunnel there's a sign, and it says, "Way Out," and I know that's the way I'm going.' Larry explained he writes poems to help him cope with death to make the thought of it easier to deal with. 'I started to write little poems about it with a friend of mine, and it really makes it much easier for me to deal with, because I was always very frightened of it, and it was full of mystery. 'I didn't really know – I've not been encumbered with any kind of religion at all. It's kind of pick it up as you go along.' Larry also revealed he was friends with the late Dame Maggie Smith after they first crossed paths at the beginning of his acting career. The star explained: 'I hadn't seen Maggie Smith in person since she was in Canada, at the Shakespeare Festival in Stratford Ontario, where I was starting out my acting career. 'Our eyes met across a big room in a London club, where a lot of us were celebrating the life of a wonderful, long actor who we'd all loved, and we met each other's eyes, and she smiled at me and mouthed, 'Larry Lamb,' and we walked across to each other and we hugged, and we kissed and we just stood back looking at each other. 'Staring into each other's eyes and the years just flying by, and she just said, 'I hate being old.' 'We stayed in touch over the next few years, but it was only ever on the phone. 'We never got together - she was rather reluctant to go out - and I kept phoning her regularly, and then I left it off. 'Then all of a sudden I heard that she'd died, and I thought well there's no way to connect, that's that. '[Then] right out of the blue, I got a phone call from one of her sons, Chris Larkin. I said to him, 'I don't think I've spoken to you since you were seven years-old in Canada." 'He laughed and he said, 'You're right, but [brother] Toby and I are going through mum's telephone book, and any name that doesn't have a line through it is invited to the funeral".'

Cruz Beckham, 20, pokes fun at his hilarious £410 Prada tight white pants look after mimicking dad David as his brother Romeo trolls him with cheeky response

Cruz Beckham poked fun at his hilarious tight white pants look in a new Instagram snap on Thursday after he playfully mimicked his father David. The youngest Beckham son, 20, stripped down to $550 (£410) white Prada budgie smugglers during the family yacht trip around St Tropez on Wednesday. He appeared to have borrowed the look from his father David, who has been spotted wearing a strikingly similar pair on other holidays as recently as last year. Cruz's look was also reminiscent of David's iconic Armani underwear campaigns, where he has previously worn white briefs to show off his muscular frame. His older brother Romeo, 22, savaged the joker with a cheeky response in his comments, writing 'Jesus' which sparked a wave of replies from fans who appeared to all think the same thing. Cruz captioned the post: 'Spreadin em' [sic] Cruz kept the smuggler pants on for a spin around the bay on a wakeboard, showing off his water sports skills before flaunting his musical talent with a guitar session. He frolicked on the sun deck with his bikini-clad girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 29, before diving into the water. Following his dip in the sea, he could be seen chatting with Romeo, who was also on the annual family holiday in St Tropez this week. David and Victoria's estranged son Brooklyn, 26, is the only Beckham child not on the getaway, having spent the week before in the same location with his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, and his in-laws. The eldest Beckham son looked to be missing out on a fun-filled trip, as the other offspring made the most of their trip together. Brooklyn has left the south of France to return to the U.S, where he was spotted looking glum on an outing in New York with his wife and mother-in-law, Claudia, on Tuesday. On Wednesday he shared 'glum' pictures of himself waiting for Nicola in a changing room while she tried on clothes. He narrowly avoided a run in with his family in Francve amid their ongoing feud, after both families were pictured in the same port just days apart. Cruz looked to be serenading his partner as she lay in the sun Cruz launched into an impressive dive into the water below Romeo was seen playing with a ball on the deck Romeo and Harper, 14, originally joined their parents Victoria, 51, and David, 50, for some time away, before they were later joined by Cruz and Jackie. Cruz and Jackie looked totally relaxed as they sunbathed together on the yacht, which is named Seven after Harper's middle name and David's football shirt number. While they kicked back together, Victoria was spotted on the top deck, also topping up her tan in the sunshine. Brooklyn and Nicola have continued to keep away amid an ongoing family feud, as the pair lived it up on a £85million vessel that dwarfs his parents' close by last week. The family has been thrown into turmoil in recent months as it has been claimed Brooklyn has become increasingly estranged from his famous parents after failing to attend any of his father David's 50th birthday celebrations in May. The couple traded in their £5million yacht for the much bigger vessel last year, and had been pictured on it sailing around Miami. The impressive looking vessel, understood to be worth £16million, was a significant upgrade on the comparatively modest 100-foot yacht reportedly purchased by Beckham in 2022. The football legend was said to have 'treated himself' to his original vessel in 2022 after being inspired by his maritime jaunts with close friends Sir Elton John and David Furnish - who often holiday at sea. Cruz and Jackie have been dating since April 2024 The two brothers chatted away on the boat with Cruz's girlfriend Jackie David popped up from behind the side of the boat The group looked to be having a great time together He dried off with a white fluffy towel Cruz was seen leaving for his wakeboard session A source told The Sun at the time: 'David had a look around some yachts in the summer, and decided to treat himself. He helped design the boat himself, and has been incredibly hands-on with everything. 'It's not an oligarch-style superyacht, but it's still pretty plush by anyone's standards. He was inspired after holidaying with Elton and David on their boat - and loves life on the water. 'There will be an area for the kids to snorkel, and the boat will be a brilliant base for the whole Beckham clan to have magical holidays abroad.' Earlier this week, Victoria gave a rare insight into her feelings about estranged son Brooklyn with a telling social media move. The former Spice Girl has proved she is still keeping tabs on her eldest son's moves by 'liking' several of his social media facts. Notably, in the three-weeks spanning July 5 and July 26 - she liked every single one of his posts that didn't feature Nicola. All posts in which he was seen with his wife, were not acknowledged by Victoria. It is possible that these posts - four out of the 16 - were simply not seen by her. Victoria has not liked any of Nicola's posts in the same time period. Nor have the Lola actress and Brooklyn liked any of Victoria's. Jackie and Cruz had previously been holidaying together The couple enjoyed the summer heat from the boat Cruz had a white towel around his shoulders Jackie looked sensational in a grey bikini Brooklyn did, however, open up about the only thing he and wife Nicola argue over amid the ongoing feud with his famous family. Despite their troubles, the hunk suggested the couple, who wed in 2023, are still very much in the honeymoon stage and only disagree over the thermostat. He told GQ: 'By the way, that's the only argument me and my wife have, the temperature in the room. She loves it'. 'She runs cold, so she always wants it all hot all the time. I always run hot, and I like to have it a little bit colder, so we meet in the middle.' It was previously revealed that Brooklyn and Nicola's Instagram accounts no longer follow his younger brothers Cruz and Romeo in the latest family drama. However, Brooklyn's friends told Daily Mail that Cruz and Romeo have actually blocked them on the social media platform. This would make sense given that Brooklyn and Nicola are still following Victoria and David. Cruz and Romeo were still following Brooklyn and Nicola earlier this month but appeared to take action after Brooklyn posted a birthday tribute to sister Harper, sharing a family photo without them in it – which Nicola reposted. There was much speculation whether Brooklyn would reach out to Harper on her 14th birthday, but despite him doing so, it seems all is not well in the camp. Brooklyn's birthday tribute to Harper marked his first public interaction with his family since he paid tribute to his grandmother Sandra on June 26, despite remaining silent and shunning his father's 50th birthday earlier that same month. Sources close to the family have told Daily Mail of their fears that Brooklyn and his wife Nicola have also distanced themselves from Harper after they failed to visit her when they flew into London in May to film an advert for French-Italian clothing brand Moncler just over a mile from the family home in Holland Park. David and Victoria had no idea whether Brooklyn, who Harper has idolised since she was a little girl, would message her privately or publicly on Instagram because they have no communication with him.
