Eighties movie bombshell unrecognizable after quitting fame and stalker hell – can you guess who?
The star- now 67 - stepped out in Los Angeles for a cigarette, showing off her tanned legs in a pair of white frayed denim shorts.

While a wide-brimmed straw hat obscured her face a bit, her trademark long blonde hair hung down around her shoulders as she walked.
Since finding fame in the 80s, the actress has switched the big and small screen for writing.
But if anyone remembers the series The Fall Guy, they will hopefully remember its star, Heather Thomas.
Heather played stunt woman Jody Banks alongside legendary co-stars Lee Majors and Douglas Bars.
The trio of stunt performers also worked as bounty hunters, and the series ran from 1981 to 1986.
After it was axed, Heather continued to work in Hollywood, starring in films including 1982's Zapped!, Cyclone (1987) and Against the Law (1997).
However, her fame came at a price as she was repeatedly targeted by stalkers, which ultimately drove her away from Tinseltown.
Speaking about her stalker hell, Heather told the Still Here Hollywood podcast in March: "Really bad, at least two a week. I had tons of restraining orders.
"I had two little girls, and a guy's jumping our gate with a giant buck knife.
"In those days, I don't know if this is true now, but people would fixate.
The Fall Guy review - An action-packed comedy that wears its absurdity with pride
"You could be in a soap commercial, and they would fixate on you, and there weren't a lot of stalker laws, and I just needed to be home anyway."
Heather - who is now a screenwriter, activist and author - also revealed how she was sent a "box of bullets" and "funeral wreaths" stolen from graves.
She continued: "And I know I had one guy one night cut my screen in my bedroom and got in and I shot him, and yeah, with rock salt and birdshot."
The star has three daughters with her entertainment lawyer husband Skip Brittenham.
The couple married in 1992 and she admits it took "a couple of years" even once she had stepped out of the limelight for the stalker hell to finally die down.
Meanwhile, The Fall Guy was turned into a film in 2024 - starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt - with Heather making a cameo.

Report: The next two late-night hosts who could face axing
Two late-night mainstays could find themselves on the chopping block after helping NBC lose an eye-watering $100 million-plus per year. The shows of longtime hosts Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers, combined with the network's iconic sketch comedy series SNL, have created the nine-figure shortfall, it was reported this week. NBC officially declined to comment on the reported losses. But an insider told the Daily Mail that the three shows are actually losing closer to half that amount when taking into account revenue generated through sources like streaming and digital - though conceded they're still in the red. The news come days after CBS announced the cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, amid reports his program was losing $40 million per year. Many, including Colbert - a longtime critic of President Donald Trump - cited political motivations in the decision to pull the plug. But as the speculation swirls over CBS's decision, industry experts told the Daily Mail that NBC's silence on its own hosts' futures speaks volumes. 'They're letting the narrative take hold that Colbert was canceled purely for political reasons - and that works in their favor. It distracts from the financial bloodbath happening across the late-night industry,' said Rob Shuter, a veteran media columnist and author of Naughty But Nice. ' NBC isn't denying the $100 million [loss] because if everyone's talking about politics, they're not talking about whether these shows are even sustainable anymore.' Robert Thompson, founding director of the Bleier Center for Television and Popular Culture at Syracuse University, agreed. 'NBC would want people to think that CBS canceled Colbert for political reasons, not viewership,' he said. After news of Colbert's cancellation emerged, the host called himself a 'martyr' and told Trump to 'Go [expletive] yourself' as the president gloated publicly over the decision. Colbert had previously ripped the decision by CBS' parent company, Paramount Global, to pay Trump $16 million to settle a lawsuit he filed over a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris . The settlement was seen by many as a necessary move by the company to earn the Trump administration's approval of its $8 million merger with Skydance. Colbert more bluntly called it 'a big, fat bribe.' Colbert's Late Show has drawn hundreds of thousands more viewers than his closest late-night competitor, ABC's Jimmy Kimmel, whose show has remained profitable when non-traditional TV advertising revenue is taken into account, a source told CNBC. And while Kimmel and Meyers have been more aggressive in taking on Trump, Fallon has avoided the pile-on. 'If you're really making these deals Paramount are making, Colbert, Kimmel, and Meyers come off as a one-trick pony,' Thompson said. 'Fallon was the only one who didn't completely alter their brand to make fun of the president.' Shuter said Fallon's style could ultimately end up saving his skin - but not forever. 'Fallon didn't pivot hard into anti-Trump satire, and that may have bought him time. But let's be clear - this isn't about politics anymore. It's about money,' he said. 'The moment a format stops printing cash, the ideology behind it becomes a footnote.'

For Elvis, death has proved disturbingly good business
Elvis lives. A 'new' Elvis Presley album is out this week, Sunset Boulevard, comprising fresh mixes of songs recorded in Los Angeles between 1970 and 1975, two years before the King died. This was a period when Elvis was arguably at the top of his game as an entertainer, relentlessly touring America with a big, super-tight ensemble of outstanding musicians, flying in on his jet and collecting a million dollars a show. Yet he was at a critically low ebb, derided for embracing Las Vegas's cheesy showbiz values and pouring out subpar albums overstuffed with middle-of-the-road material barely fit for his stellar talents. Yet here we are, still sifting through his recordings for lost gems. An extended five-disc box set that includes 89 rarities, mainly rehearsals and out-takes, more than half of which have never come out officially before. Its chief selling point is that it features songs stripped of excess overdubs to give Elvis a more raw and contemporary sound. It makes you wonder where they find this stuff? What dusty vault still contains unreleased Elvis recordings more than half a century since he died? Elvis put out 24 studio albums and 17 soundtracks within a 21-year period between his recording debut aged 19 in 1954 and death aged 42 in August 1977. Since then, there have been a mind-boggling 307 posthumous compilations, 21 remix albums, 80 box sets and 271 special collectors' releases in the Follow That Dream series. That is a lot of music, and a lot of it is the same music, repackaged over and over again. The 'Elvis lives' slogan started appearing in the immediate aftermath of his televised funeral procession, as the world grappled with the sudden disappearance of this lightning-bolt figure who had symbolised such virility. Nearly half a century later, what started out as a kind of sentimental wish seems manifestly true in terms of the way Elvis has persisted as a fixture of popular culture. The curation of the Elvis legend and management of his estate have become object lessons in the commercial exploitation of posthumous music careers. Where Elvis treads, every ageing pop brand (and their heirs) can only aspire to follow. Mercifully it is not all exploitative tat like the much derided 'interactive experience' Elvis Evolution that opened in London in July, charging up to £300 for a bit of pimped-up video footage and some over-familiar memorabilia. Elvis racks up huge streaming numbers, with more than 20 million monthly listeners on Spotify. A close look at the statistics is fascinating. His key modern audience (according to music industry site Chartmetric) are not old rock'n'roll diehards but women between the ages of 25 and 34. His most popular song is not even one of his classic rockers but dreamily romantic 1961 ballad Can't Help Falling in Love, which has garnered over a billion Spotify streams. Connecting to new generations is crucial to posthumous longevity. You have to remain present in the streaming and social media mix, with constant new releases (archive or remixes), documentaries and films (Baz Luhrmann's 2022 Elvis biopic provided a huge boost to his income and image) and even live (or almost live) performances. The best example is probably Queen, who are Spotify's most streamed vintage musical artists at number 37, and have toured with substitute singers Paul Rodgers and Adam Lambert since the death of Freddie Mercury in 1991. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Elvis Presley's Graceland (@visitgraceland) If we include the Beatles (at 55), Nirvana (111), Bee Gees (335) and the Cranberries (482), there are just 14 deceased vintage 20th-century artists in Spotify's all-time top 500 streamers (Michael Jackson at 78, Bob Marley, 122, Tupac Shakur, 157, Elvis, 205, Frank Sinatra, 208, David Bowie, 224, the Notorious BIG, 249, Whitney Houston, 294, and film composer John Williams, 446). There are also a number of late contemporary 21st-century stars, including Amy Winehouse (343), Aviici (74) and rappers Juice Wrld (21), XXXTentacion (20), Mac Miller (70) and Pop Smoke (97). Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath's streams skyrocketed this week following Osbourne's death, increasing between 1,000 and 2,000 per cent, hurling them into Spotify's current top 200 and establishing Ozzy as the number one heavy metal artist in the world. I wonder if Sabbath might be tempted to tour again with another singer, Queen style? The three surviving members were on incredible form at Ozzy's farewell concert, and it would almost be a shame if they let that music fade away. There would be no shortage of contenders, with great singers from pop star Yungblud to Rival Sons' Jay Buchanan and Lzzy Hale of Halestorm giving powerful renditions of Sabbath classics at that moving show. Death can be disturbingly good for business, as anyone who has pored over Forbes's ghoulishly fascinating annual chart of highest-earning dead celebrities can attest. Yet there are notable absences, too, from once-supreme bands and stars who appear to be fading from the firmament, such as the Doors, Marvin Gaye and even Jimi Hendrix. To protect your legacy, you have to work it. Elvis Presley's personal fortune at death was a modest $5m (around $20m/£15m adjusted for inflation). By 2022, it was estimated at more than $1bn, and he is still raking in around $100m a year, with his granddaughter, Riley Keough, his sole beneficiary following the death of her mother, Lisa-Marie, in 2023. Elvis is literally worth more dead than alive. Sunset Boulevard is out now On the Record I've been listening to Lord Huron's fine new album, The Cosmic Selector Vol. 1, a slice of atmospheric Americana with thoughtful lyrics, pitched somewhere between such unmodern influences as the Band and Chris Isaak. Movie star Kristen Stewart lends her moodily dramatic delivery to one track. The surprising thing is how popular this old-fashioned, rootsy US quartet are. One of their songs, The Night We Met, has accrued more than three billion plays on Spotify since its release in 2015. It is the 22nd most popular song of the streaming age, putting it ahead of anything by Taylor Swift (whose Cruel Summer is number 28 in all-time streams). Come critical lists and award season, I expect Jim Legxacy to be a contender for his intriguing second album, Black British Music. He is a singer, rapper and producer with an experimental bent married to sinuous pop craft, blending indie, rock and folk with quirky electronica and grime influences. It hints at the shapeshifting potential of such groundbreaking American producer-songwriters as Frank Ocean and Kanye West, and provides an interesting snapshot of a kind of uniquely British take on modern musical forms.

The most surprising celebrity couples EVER - as Katy Perry enjoys secret 'date' with Justin Trudeau
It was the summer love story no one expected after Katy Per ry was spotted on an unlikely date with Justin Trudeau this week. The world of the California Gurl and politics collided when the former Canadian Prime Minister was spotted at the singer's concert in Montreal with his daughter Ella-Grace, 16. The pair have set social media ablaze as Justin, 53, looked absolutely captivated (and even smitten) as he watched Katy belt out her hits on stage, not long after her split from Orlando Bloom. But Katy and Justin aren't the only unlikely celebrity couple to have formed this year with Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus finding unlikely love after his divorce. Elsewhere, JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes shocked fans after they fell for each other on Celebrity Big Brother back in March. As the surprising couples that weren't on anyone's 2025 bingo cards continue to pop up, Daily Mail takes a look at the most unlikely celebrity couples of past and present. Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater's romance was embroiled in controversy from the off after it began amid the break down of both of their marriages. The couple's romance was revealed in July 2023 just a few days after the singer announced her split from husband Dalton Gomez after two years of marriage -although they were said to have split in January of that year. Meanwhile Ethan had been married to his childhood sweetheart Lilly Jay, 32, for five years and welcomed their baby boy to the world in August 2022, before they sadly divorced in September last year. An insider said that the pair were so open with their romance during filming that the majority of the Wicked cast were aware that they were in a relationship. 'They were sloppy on set,' the insider shared. 'They were seen being all over each other. 'They were seen making out at a pub in Hampstead, and they were all over each other at Michelle Yeoh's Oscar party [in March].' Lilly broke her silence on Ethan's new romance with Ariana in an emotional essay in The Cut in December, where she got candid about the 'public downfall of her marriage.' She recalled moving both herself and her then two-month-old baby boy to London while Ethan filmed Wicked - before he left her for Ariana after they met on set. Lilly further reflected on how she never expected to get a divorce after tying the knot with her high school sweetheart - but emphasized both she and her ex focus to positively co-parent their son. She expressed there are 'days when I can't escape the promotion of a movie associated with the saddest days of my life are darker' as she while trying to 'accept the sudden public downfall of my marriage.' Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus shocked the world when they went public with their romance back in April. The pair's relationship began following the Achy Breaky Heart hitmaker's divorce from Firerose - his third marriage. Billy had met Elizabeth on set of the 2022 movie Christmas In Paradise and as he was navigating through the split, he received a message from Liz. 'I felt like, "Wow, can life get any harder? Can it get any tougher?" For me, at a certain point it was like, you can't get knocked down any flatter than laying on your back when life is kicking you. And in this moment... a friend reached out,' he explained. The star later gushed that the actress is 'a great human being' and also 'impressively brilliant.' And since the couple announced their romance, things have only gone from strength to strength, with Billy recently dubbing Liz the 'love of his life'. JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes It certainly wasn't a love match anyone saw coming after JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes initially denied romance rumours following their close relationship in the Celebrity Big Brother house. When the former Love Island star, 32, and the former Dance Moms star, 22, met, JoJo was in a relationship with her ex partner Kath Ebbs. However after their split at the show's afterparty JoJo and Chris' relationship has blossomed into a love like no other with Chris even admitting he is 'obsessed' with the singer. Speaking about the relationship for the first time in an interview with The Sun's Fabulous Magazine, Chris described: 'Then meeting Joelle gave me this magical feeling. She is the most precious person....I'm obsessed with her. I'd do anything for her.' The star confessed the 10-year age gap doesn't phase him as you can't help who you fall in love with. And while it has only been a matter of months Chris can already see the relationship going the full way and believes it is forever. Discussing the prospect of marriage after confessing they both say 'I love you' every day, he hinted: 'I do see a forever here... I'd love to marry her. I'd be lying if I didn't tell you I run through scenarios of our wedding day.' He also revealed they both want children and he has received the seal of approval from her family after joining them on their Orlando holiday in May. Zara McDermott and Louis Tomlinson Zara McDermott hit headlines when she was linked to One Direction superstar Louis Tomlinson earlier this year when they were spotted enjoying a secret date. Their romance continued to blossom as they jetted off on holiday together, before Louis and Zara's ex Sam Thompson came face-to-face for the first time at Soccer Aid last month. A seemingly awkward interaction ensued, with Louis reportedly blanking Sam following the match at Old Trafford despite holding 'peace talks' at the team hotel earlier. The woman at the centre of the drama was however nowhere to be seen, with Zara later admitting the reaction to her love life has been 'frustrating'. Yet the pair survived the minor bump in the road and went Instagram official in June, five months after they began dating as they enjoyed the weekend at Glastonbury with their pals. The couple were spotted packing on the PDA in a TikTok video at the festival as Louis wrapped his arms around Zara who flopped her head back onto his shoulder, while enjoying the music. The user captioned the post: 'Glastonbury is mad because you can be dancing to Skepta and boom Louis Tomlinson is next to you'. Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas Tom Cruise first sparked romance rumours with Ana de Armas when they were spotted together on Valentine's Day. And after months of speculation and many helicopter rides together, Tom, 63, and Ana, 37, seemed to finally confirm that they are an item. The pair were spotted holding hands during a picturesque getaway in Vermont this week following on from a sun-soaked trip to Menorca last month. A source exclusively told 'Tom has been showering Ana with gifts ever since they met, it's his thing, he is thoughtful.' 'First it started with her favourite flowers then books he thought she would want to read because she's an avid reader.' 'The more they got to know each other, the bigger the gifts became. There has been jewellery like gold bracelets and designer clothing, things like that, things every girl would love. 'Probably the biggest gift he has given her is being able to go anywhere in the world at a moment's notice, not many people can do that. She loves to travel.' Lana Del Rey and Jeremy Dufrene Video Games singer Lana del Rey shocked fans after she tied the knot with her husband Jeremy Dufrene last September. Yet what was even more surprising to fans was Lana's love interest's career as it was revealed Jeremy is an alligator tour guide. The singer and her now-husband exchanged vows by the water in Des Allemandes, Louisiana at the same bayou where he operates his popular swamp tours. Their nuptials came just one month after she confirmed their relationship following their secret romance. She first shared a photo with him back in 2019 after taking one of his tours from Arthur's Airboats in Des Allemandes. Years after their initial meeting, they reconnected in 2024 before getting engaged and then married in late September 2024 in what sources described as a 'whirlwind' romance. 'It's been kind of a whirlwind romance, but Lana's close friends hoped she would get married,' an insider said. 'Jeremy is different from the men that Lana meets in the entertainment world. He's a great guy.' The source added: 'He's charming and charismatic in a Southern way, very much a gentleman and he treats Lana really well. She's an old soul.' Last month Lana passionately kissed Jeremy onstage while performing in Cardiff as she stopped mid-performance to run up to her husband, who was standing backstage. In the middle of serenading both him and her audience with her song Stars Fell on Alabama at Principality Stadium, she got visibly emotional and stopped singing before walking to the side of the stage to kiss him. Elon Musk and Grimes Elon Musk and singer Grimes, 36, began dating in April 2018, a month before they made their red carpet debut at the Met Gala. Rumours started to swirl that they had split by that fall, after the pair unfollowed each other on X, however, Grimes insisted that they were still together during a March 2019 interview with Wall Street Journal. Despite seeming to be constantly on-off the couple are parents to four-year-old son X Æ A-12 Musk; three-year-old daughter Exa Dark Sideræl; and son Techno Mechanicus, three, who they welcomed in 2022. The couple parted ways nearly four years ago, as he told Page Six in September of 2021 that he and Grimes were 'semi-separated.' In a 2022 Vanity Fair interview, Grimes said she 'would probably refer to Elon as her boyfriend,' adding that the relationship was 'very fluid'. She said: 'We live in separate houses. We're best friends. We see each other all the time…. We just have our own thing going on, and I don't expect other people to understand it. This is the best it's ever been.... We just need to be free.' However, after the piece came out, she took to X to reveal that they had since broken up. 'Me and E have broken up *again* since the writing of this article,' she wrote in a post. 'But he's my best friend and the love of my life.' Tom Cruise and Cher Veteran singer Cher was 39 years old when she first crossed paths with up-and-coming actor Tom Cruise in 1985. The couple are said to have met at Madonna and Sean Penn 's wedding and quickly hit it off - despite their 15 year age gap. After this, Tom and Che reconnected at a White House event to raise awareness for dyslexia. Speaking to the Mail on Sunday in 2018, Cher said: 'A bunch of people who were dyslexic were invited to the White House, and Tom and I are both dyslexic.' As The Washington Post reported at the time, Cruise was dressed 'in 1920s-chic gangster suit, hair glooped in grease', while Cher was 'draped in black and gray gabardine with a sculpted hairstyle best described as haute punk goddess'. She added: 'We didn't go out till way later, but there definitely was a connection there.' Appearing on Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live in 2013, Cher let slip that Tom was one of her favourite lovers. 'He was in the top five,' Cher - who has been linked to Val Kilmer, Gene Simmons, Warren Beatty, Eric Clapton, Michael Bolton and Tommy Lee - boldly proclaimed when grilled by the cheeky host. She added: 'He wasn't a Scientologist then. It was pretty hot and heavy for a little minute. He's a great guy. The person that I knew was a great and lovable guy.' When they were first romantically linked, Tom had yet to appear in Tom Gun - which turned him into a household name. Although their romance didn't last in the long-term, Cher told the Mail that her and Tom - who married actress Mimi Rogers in 1987 - have remained friends. She added: 'Though I don't get what he does, that whole Scientology thing. I can't understand it so I just… don't.' Neil Young and Daryl Hannah Singer Neil Young and actress Daryl Hannah first got together in 2014, before marrying in a private ceremony in Atascadero, California four years later. The couple were pap-snapped on a date in September 2014, a month after his divorce filing from his wife of 36 years Pegi Young. Around that time, a People source gossiped that Neil and Daryl had in fact 'been dating for months' before he filed for divorce from Pegi. Years later, Pegi told Rolling Stone of her split from Neil: 'We were having a rough patch. But I never would've thought in a million years we would be getting divorced. So, yeah, there was a bit of a shock value there.' There was a swirl of reports in 2018 that Neil and Daryl had married, and he then referred to 'My wife Daryl' in a pro-gun control Instagram post in October of that year. The post also included a video featuring a live version of the 1970 Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young song Ohio. Sinitta and Brad Pitt Singer Sinitta was at the height of her fame when she hooked up with a little known actor named Brad Pitt in the late 1980s. The pair dated for two years but shy and retiring Pitt found it difficult to keep up with his party-loving girlfriend and the relationship fell apart. In a previous interview with Maxim magazine, Sinitta said: 'I think I was too wild for him! 'I was really young and at the peak of my career and I didn't want to sit and be romantic and eat dinner at home.' Sinitta has also blamed their careers as the reason for their split in 1988, as Brad lived in Los Angeles while Sinitta toured. Speaking to OK magazine she explained: 'It was a long-distance thing for too long. He was based in LA and had to be there for auditions and filming, whereas I was always off on tour. 'And I need my men to be around and be with me. We didn't have the internet or WhatsApp back in the late 80s, all we had in those days was a fax or a phone or an answer machine. 'There wasn't a lot of contact if you were in different countries and I found that difficult.' She admitted to sending him pages upon pages of faxes, saying: 'I used to spend a fortune telephoning him from hotels and sending 40-page faxes in the middle of the night. 'But boys aren't that good at communicating back, so I'd send these 40 pages and he'd come back with maybe a one-word answer.' However, the former couple have remained friends and Brad even texted even sent her a congratulatory text when she adopted two children in 2008. Liv Tyler and Joaquin Phoenix They're two hugely successful actors in their own right - but a lot of movie buffs might not realise that Liv Tyler and Joaquin Phoenix were once a celebrity power couple to be reckoned with. The former couple met in the mid 1990s on the set of Inventing the Abbotts/ when they were both teenagers. Speaking to The Morning Call in 1997, Liv said: 'I fell in love with Joaquin the second I saw him.' She added: 'I didn't feel threatened or afraid of the idea to get involved with him when we were working. 'I just kind of knew and hoped and prayed that I would love him forever.' Meanwhile, Joaquin said he was 'moved' by his co-star's honesty and added: 'What I felt about her was that I have a new friend, a really great friend.' Although the couple didn't work out in the long-term, Liv later told Elle that she considers Joaquin and his sisters as her family. She added: 'We were so young when we were together, like 18 to 21. He was my first love. So he's a huge part of even my sense of humor.' Nicole Kidman and Lenny Kravitz Following her high-profile split from Tom Cruise in 2001, Nicole Kidman had an unlikely romance with rock star Lenny Kravitz. Despite trying to keep their relationship out of the spotlight, the couple - who reportedly dated for a year - were often spotted pounding the pavements of New York together. In a 2007 interview with Vanity Fair, Nicole hinted that her and Lenny were even engaged for a time - but it sadly didn't work out. She said: 'It just wasn't right. I wasn't ready. We weren't ready … I get engaged and I get married — that's my thing. 'I don't want to date. I'm interested in a very, very deep connection.' Despite their split, Lenny and Nicole have remained friendly - and often stop and speak to one another on red carpets. During the press tour for Big Little Lies - which also starred Lenny's daughter Zoe - Nicole confirmed that she'd almost become Mrs Kravitz. She said: 'I knew Zoë because I was engaged to her father. It's all in the family! I love Lenny; he's a great guy.' What's more, Lenny only has got things to say about his ex-fiancé too. He told Mr Porter in 2017: 'Nicole is amazing. Zoë and she hadn't spent time together since she was younger, since Nicole and I were together, so that was great.' While Nicole went on to marry country singer Keith Urban, Lenny is reportedly dating model Ana Paula Valle. Janet Jackson and Matthew McConaughey In the early noughties, Matthew McConaughey was one of Hollywood's most in-demand leading men thanks to his roles in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days and Failure to Launch. At the height of his rom-com fame, the actor - now 55 - was linked to singer Janet Jackson. The couple are said to have met at the 2002 Grammys when they presented an award together and it was rumoured that they were dating at the time. However, Janet didn't confirm this until 2006, where she admitted that they went out - but insisted it was 'just for a minute'. Matthew also confirmed it in 2019 on Watch What Happened Live, confessing they had gone on a dinner date and 'that was sorta it'. Kerry Katona and Lucien Laviscount Fans of Emily in Paris were shocked to learn that Lucien Laviscount previously dated Kerry Katona when he was 19 and she was 31 The pair were seen getting cosy in the Celebrity Big Brother house and even kissed on camera before posing for the front cover of OK! magazine when they left the house Fans of Emily in Paris were shocked to learn that Lucien Laviscount previously dated Kerry Katona when he was 19 and she was 31. The actor, 32, and the former Atomic Kitten star, 44, took part in Celebrity Big Brother back in 2011 and quickly struck up a romance. Lucien, who plays Alfie on the hit Netflix show, was best known at the time for appearances on Coronation Street and Waterloo Road. His success on the series, which stars Lily Collins in the lead role, has seen him tipped for more high-profile roles including replacing Daniel Craig as James Bond. The pair were seen getting cosy in the house and even kissed on camera before posing for the front cover of OK! magazine when they left the house. On their loved-up OK! magazine shoot, Kerry and Lucien declared: 'We hope we'll be together forever'. In their candid interview, Kerry wasn't shy about revealing the spark between the pair, saying: 'There was a lot of sexual tension, definitely. 'If the cameras hadn't been there, God knows what would have happened.' Lucien said he had a 'thing' for older women and insisted: 'She's not too old for me.' The pair's fling didn't last long however and they both moved on, with Lucien then being linked to Jesy Nelson after they were seen getting cosy on a night out. Pete Davidson and Kate Beckinsale In in March 2019, comedian Pete Davidson set tongues wagging when he went public with his romance with Kate Beckinsale The couple confirmed reports of a romance by sharing a passionate kiss in their seats in the stadium He's dated everyone from Ariana Grande to Kim Kardashian - but in March 2019, comedian Pete Davidson set tongues wagging when he went public with his romance with Kate Beckinsale. The couple - who had a 20-year-age gap - confirmed they were dating by passionately kissing in the stands at hockey game in New York. The pair were also seen holding hands and laughing with each other during the game, and at one point Pete rose to his feet and triumphantly threw up his arms. Unfortunately for the couple, their relationship wasn't meant to last and they called it quits the following month. In an interview with Charlamagne Tha God in February 2020, Pete gushed: '[ate is] one of the funniest people I've ever met.' 'All of my uncles freaked out,' the comedian said of how his family first reacted when he started dating the actress. He told Charlamagne that the timing was bad for the two of them, as he joked: 'I think I was going into another rehab. I must have a pattern.' Of the split with Kate he said: 'I wasn't right yet, and [Kate] had a lot of acting and work to do. She's a superstar.' Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet have been an item for over two years now, and Kylie even recently began following her boyfriend on Instagram Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet have been an item for over two years now. Rumours of their romance first swirled in April 2023 when her car was parked outside his Beverly Hills home. The eventually made their first public appearance at Beyoncé's star-studded birthday concert in September 2023, where videos circulated of them cuddling and kissing in full view of concertgoers. The couple made their award season debut at the 81st Golden Globes last January. She accompanied him to the Oscars this year where he was snubbed in the Best Actor category. Earlier this month the pair proved their romance is still going strong as they reunited at Shellona Beach in Saint Tropez. The French holiday comes days after eagle-eyed fans noticed that the billionaire reality television star recently started following Timothée on Instagram. The notoriously private couple had previously not shown any signs of their romance on social media. For his part, the Call Me By Your Name star does not follow anyone on Instagram, where he boasts 19.7 million followers. Insiders revealed earlier this year that the couple have agreed to a set of stipulations regarding their relationship. While the twosome have started attending public events together, they do not post each other online. And Timothée will not appear on Kylie's family Hulu series The Kardashians.
