By Andrea Petrou on October 17th, 2011

Elizabeth Hurley and Shane Warne are going to be engaged for “a while”.

The ‘Gossip Girl’ actress – who split from her first husband, textile heir Arun Nayar, last December, with their divorce completed in the summer – got engaged to the former cricketer earlier this month, but she admitted the pair are not going to rush into a wedding.

The 46-year-old star told You magazine: “It’s a very exciting time for me and Shane. We aren’t making any immediate plans to get married – we’re going to enjoy being engaged for a while.”

Elizabeth – who has a nine-year-old son, Damian, with former flame Steve Bing, while Shane has children Brooke, Summer and Jackson with his ex-wife Simone Callahan – said the 42-year-old sportsman makes her feel “happy” and she his glad her son gets along well with Shane’s kids.

She added: “We both want to spend more time with each other’s families, and Damian and I are looking forward to visiting Australia together in the near future.

“Shane makes me happy. We have a lot of fun together, we laugh a lot and that’s very important to me. I couldn’t put up with the ‘serious’ for too long.”

“My family and my new family with Shane and his kids are what’s important. His children are really beautiful, sweet and affectionate. They get on brilliantly with Damian, and as an only child, it’s great for him to have them around when they come to stay.

“I love having a lot of people in the house – the more the merrier.”

Lily Allen admits her fashion range isn’t “ground breaking”

By Andrea Petrou on June 15th, 2011

Lily Allen admits her fashion range isn’t “ground breaking”.

The ‘Not Fair’ hitmaker – who married building firm boss Sam Cooper on Saturday admits she and her sister Sarah Owen don’t do the actual designs for their Lucy in Disguise label and knows their collections are unlikely to change the face of fashion.

She said: “Sarah and me work with a designer called Nadia Jones. We tell her what we want and she does the sketches.

“We were inspired by vintage clothing – we’re not doing anything ground breaking.”

Lily also admitted working with her sister can be “challenging”, but she is more honest with her about her feelings than she is with anyone else in their company.

She told more! magazine: “It’s challenging. It can be a struggle with family members. It’s difficult not to be honest all the time. There’s a lot of tongue biting.

“Crispin, who I work with, and I disagree about stuff, but I always hold back because we’re not related. There’s a lot more horrible stuff I could say! But yeah, with my sister, when she starts to irritate me I just want to pull a face. But I don’t think everyone else in the office would like it very much.”

Lily Allen gets married and announces she’s pregnant

By Andrea Petrou on June 13th, 2011

Lily Allen is pregnant.

The singer’s new husband Sam Cooper announced the happy news to the couple’s friends and family during his speech at their wedding reception over the weekend.

A friend of the couple is quoted by the MailOnline website as saying: “There were tears all around. This is the happiest day of Lily and Sam’s lives and they are so in love. This is the icing on the wedding cake!”

Lily is believed to be 16 weeks pregnant and Sam decided to include the announcement in his speech after they went for the 12-week scan and were told the baby is developing healthily.

The happy news comes seven months after the 26-year-old singer tragically lost her and Sam’s baby six months into the pregnancy last November.

Earlier in the day, Lily and Sam tied the knot at the St James the Great church in Cranham, near Stroud, Gloucestershire, South West England, before the newlyweds and their guests headed to the couple’s £3 million mansion for the reception which is being held in a marquee in their garden.

Lily wore a lace wedding dress designed by Delphine Manivet and guests included her actor-and-comedian father Keith Allen, comic Harry Enfield and her brother Alfie.

The ‘Smile’ singer’s half-sister Sarah Owen – who also attended the nuptials – previously revealed her sibling and Sam planned to try for a baby in 2011 following last year’s tragedy.

Sarah – who runs vintage London clothes shop Lucy in Disguise – said: “They’re going to start trying (for a baby) in the New Year.

“New Year, new start. Losing the baby totally devastated her … But Lily is absolutely determined to be a mum. This is what she wants more than anything in the whole wide world, more than her singing career.”

In January 2008, Lily suffered a miscarriage when she was dating Chemical Brothers star Ed Simons.
