Victoria Beckham in tears over shock divorce

A "distraught" Victoria Beckham features on the cover of this week's New Idea. Divorce? What? Beckham fans have no need to worry; the divorce that the Spice Girls star is crying over is that of her not-as-famous sister Louise Flood, whose five-year marriage is in crisis. "It's no secret Victoria's exhausted," an insider tells New Idea. "She's working way too much right now. She's distraught over her sister's divorce." But could Victoria's marriage to David actually be in trouble too? A source reveals that the couple is "not in a good place right now". Oh, awkward.

Love is in the air for singer Susan Boyle. According to Woman's Weekly the Britain's Got Talent star has found herself a man, who she says is a "perfect gentleman". Boyle is smitten with an American doctor who she met at the Safety Harbor Resort in Clearwater, Florida. "It's very early days" the singer confesses, "We'll see what happens". Boyle is staying tight-lipped about the details of her new beau, telling the woman's mag: "I don't want to say any more about who he is right now as that would be unfair on him." But she does reveal that "he gave me a peck on the cheek" and that "he wants to come over and see me". Reow! Sounds like things are really heating up for Boyle.

This week's Woman's Day featured some beautiful photos from the wedding of Jersey Shore party girl Nicole 'Snooki' Polizzi and her new hubby Jionni La Valle aka Jwoww. The lovebirds married in an extravagant Gatsby style wedding. Snooki reveals that she's grown up and "evolved into this vintage, classic and timeless person, which is freaking weird but I love it. That's just who I am now." However New Idea reports the reality TV star hasn't completely ditched her partying ways, revealing that Snooki broke her heels before continuing on to the wedding's after-party. "We put our tracksuits on and put my Uggs on and we had a blast at my after-party," Snooki told the mag. To be fair, Uggs are way more comfortable than heals.

The Keeping up with the Kardashians star may have moved on to date rapper French Montana, but according to Woman's Day Khloe Kardashian can't get over her soon-to-be-ex-husband, Lamar Odom. "All the papers have been filed and lawyers are ready to finalise proceedings and their divorce settlement," a source reveals. "But Khloe is still stalling on signing her divorce papers because she can't accept their marriage is over." The insider suggests that Khloe's relationship with bad-boy rapper French Montana is nothing more than a fling, saying "she doesn't feel even a fraction for him of what she felt for Lamar." The reality TV star was also filmed crying to her mum Kris Jenner that, "if I had my way, I'd still be married to Lamar". Aww, wipe those tears away Khloe.

New Idea has pointed out that Miss 1989 herself, Taylor Swift, turns 25 this Saturday, December 13. Thankfully, it didn't land on a Friday this year. The mag suggests everyone whose birthday also happens to take place this week will find an "exhilarating romance" and that "different activities will also bring unusual and fascinating experiences." But watch out because "emotional spending on people you love or a meaningful buy will stretch the finances" so maybe try and avoid the malls this Christmas season. You listening to that, Tay-tay? Also, your lucky numbers will be 15, 22 and 30.
