Simple signs that your partner might be cheating on you... and why it could be YOUR fault
Controversial relationship coach Sadia Khan has issued a brutal wakeup call to victims of cheating partners. During a recent appearance on Jay Shetty's On Purpose podcast, Khan claimed that it may be your own fault if you get cheated on for ignoring obvious warning signs. 'Especially with men in particular it's always your own fault, because most cheaters come with smoking guns on the first date,' she explained. 'People don't usually lie. They may SAY lies, but they'll show you their red flags, pretty much from day one,' she continued. 'It might be that they were in a relationship when you met them, or it might be that you caught them in a few lies when you first got with them. You would've caught some sign that this person is capable of deeper lies.' Khan then claimed that you don't even need evidence to catch somebody being unfaithful. 'Some cheaters will say, "Well you can't prove anything!" Cheaters will always want you to catch them red-handed. You should say, "I don't need red-handed evidence. I can see your behaviour isn't treating me right",' she said. Khan said that the best way to catch a cheater is to 'know your partner better than they know themselves', and that way you'll be in tune with any concerning changes in their behavior. 'If you pay close attention to your partner then it's quite difficult for them to live a whole double life without you catching on,' she explained. Earlier this year, Khan, who boasts over a million followers on social media, said that men get cheated on because 'they don't understand female psychology'. She went on to say that a lot of men who are cheated on were most likely raised by their mothers. 'They tend to think that their mother's advice is the key,' she said. 'They teach you to be kind, they teach you to listen to them, they teach you not to talk back, not to answer back, never to question them,' she continued. 'They train you into becoming this really good boy who's really obedient and all of these things are desexualizing. All of these things are what moms want from boys, from their sons, but it's definitely not what women want from their partners.' Khan then said that men need to be more assertive in their relationships rather than taking the laid back approach. 'We want a man that's fearless. So if you're a man that's afraid of flying, afraid of heights, afraid of confrontation, afraid, afraid, afraid, automatically she's less attracted,' said Khan. 'We like some protective jealousy - they care about you, so they worry about you,' she continued. 'So whenever a man comes to me who's been cheated on, he'll tell me, "I never stopped her from doing anything. I allowed to go on holidays whenever she wanted, I allowed her to come home whenever she wanted, she could post whatever she wanted on Instagram and she still cheated on me!" 'And I say to them, "duh!"' Khan finished. Khan, who bills herself as both a psychologist and a relationship coach, has built up a huge following online for her no-holds-barred advice. She's well known for her brutal dating tips, and even offers a pricey 'high value man' course that teaches men how to be more confident and charismatic. Researchers previously found that women are unfaithful because they want 'good genes' for their offspring, known as 'dual-mating theory.' Women tend to seek out more attractive affair partners for their genetic material, but stay with a long-term mate who would make a better parent, according to a study. However, some participants reported straying out of boredom or a lack of investment from their current partner, saying they simply wanted to have their cake and eat it too. The study was conducted by Australian and UK researchers who surveyed 254 heterosexual people, 116 of whom were women, and asked them to measure their physical physical, personal and parental attraction to both partners.

'But I saw a clip on Instagram where someone said, "The best thing I ever had is being called Dad." I was like, "Oh, wouldn't that be cool?" So now I'm so down for it. I would like to have loads.' Jamie added he would be up for four kids, with Sophie sweetly agreeing.

Kylie Minogue responds to Taylor Swift comparisons after fans accuse singer of copying her
Kylie Minogue has responded to Taylor Swift comparisons on Instagram on Thursday after fans accused the singer of copying her. The Cruel Summer hitmaker sent Swifties around the world into a meltdown when she unveiled the cover of her new album, The Life Of A Showgirl, on Wednesday. But some have since accused the American star, 35, of copying iconic pop queen Kylie's Showgirl: The Greatest Hits era. Now Kylie has shared her opinion on the claims as she shared a number of stunning pictures of her dressed up from her own Showgirl Era. The Can't Get You Out Of My Head hitmaker wrote: 'When all your friends start sending you your Showgirl mems!!! Awww. 'Showgirl life is 'a thing', multi dimensional and so much more than feathers and dazzle. 'Respect and admiration to all my fellow hard working Showgirls'. The Aussie icon commenced her Showgirl world tour in 2005 with performances in Europe before travelling to her native Melbourne, where she was diagnosed with breast cancer, causing her to postpone the remaining dates. Several fans flocked to social media to claim Taylor ripped off Kylie's showgirl look by posing in feathers and a gem-encrusted outfit. 'Kylie is the one and only showgirl! No shade to Taylor but Kylie is the ultimate,' one person wrote on Instagram. 'There's only one Showgirl and that's Kylie!!' another commented while a third person agreed: 'There is only one Showgirl and that's our Kylie.' Despite some backlash, others rushed to Taylor's defence and insisted that more than one showgirl can exist. 'So is 'showgirl' only reserved for Kylie or what? Don't get me wrong as I am a fan of both Kylie and Taylor... Was just wondering,' one commented. 'These comments dragging Taylor are exhausting. Kylie is one of my faves but how about we stop pitting women against each other?' a second said. Kylie wrote: 'When all your friends start sending you your Showgirl mems!!! Awww. Showgirl life is 'a thing', multi dimensional and so much more than feathers and dazzle' 'Kylie and Taylor should do a collab,' another suggested. It comes after Taylor unveiled first-look images of her jaw-dropping upcoming album artwork to accompany her new record, The Life Of A Showgirl. The 14-time Grammy Award-winning singer, 35, looked nothing short of sensational in a skimpy feathered outfits, which were shared alongside the album announcement. Taylor first dropped the news about her 12th studio album earlier this week while teasing her upcoming appearance on boyfriend Travis Kelce's New Heights podcast. On Wednesday, just as her New Heights episode premiered, the Red singer revealed the official album cover for The Life Of A Showgirl. She confirmed that the album will be released on October 3 — just over a year and a half after the release of her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department. In the new album artwork, Taylor sizzled in racy gem-encrusted outfits fit for the stage as she posed in a theatre. Keeping in the showgirl theme, Taylor wore a huge 1920s-themed feathered headpiece and dazzling bodysuit as she gazed away from the camera. Turning up the heat, the Cruel Summer songstress wowed in a black and red glittering strapless bodysuit as she posed lying on a chair. She left her long blonde tresses loose and accessorised with coordinated long gloves and sexy fishnet tights. For the main album cover, Taylor showed off her amazing figure in a jewelled bodysuit as she lay in a bathtub. The busty starlet stares stoically at the camera in the striking image captured by famed photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.
