TALK OF THE TOWN: Victoria Beckham is a ‘try-hard’ who must have a secret personal stylist, reckons fashion guru Susannah Constantine
Victoria Beckham may have built her own fashion empire, but Susannah Constantine suspects she has a secret personal stylist.

Despite reports that life behind the scenes at This Morning is toxic, presenter Phillip Schofield finds a way to cheer up staff.
I’m told he hands bottles of Moet to researchers who discover interesting nuggets of information about guests.
My source says: ‘If the interviewee responds with something like, “Wow, hardly anyone knew that,” it makes Phil very happy indeed.
‘He will then find the researcher who put that anecdote on his notes and give them a bottle of champagne.’

Sabrina, 29, who is engaged to restaurateur Phineas Page, has been gulping down a combination of garlic, oregano oil and dandelion with the tea in the hope that it will protect her.
‘I am taking measures to prepare my immune system as best I can – just in case,’ says the model.
Good luck with that, Sabrina!
