Russell Grant's horoscopes as Taurus urged to take time out amid busy schedule

Today's star signs tell Scorpio to remain in stable situation rather than taking risks.
Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 20)
You can't seem to get a moment to call your own. Friends, family and workmates keep coming to you for advice and guidance. While it feels good to be valued for your perspective, you really don't want to be responsible for the decisions other people have to make.
Taurus (Apr 21 - May 21)
Even though you have a packed agenda, it's still important to insist on having some personal time for yourself. The more tired you are, the more frustrated you will be by the way some people can act so thoughtlessly. Because you're feeling tense and irritable, do your best to turn a blind eye.
‌
Gemini (May 22 - June 21)
You're disappointed by the lack of generosity or appreciation in clients and other professionals. Learn from a reputable expert who earns a solid income. By providing high quality services, you will continue to succeed even in a challenging economy.
‌
Cancer (June 22 - July 23)
Today is all about communication; how you phrase your words and how you understand what other people are telling you. There is also great potential for romance but the evening could bring some stress and anxiety in a close friendship. How you handle this is all up to you.
Leo (July 24 - Aug 23)
Recent progress in a partnership will give you a reason to celebrate. You might both decide you prefer to do this privately. Are you single? You could soon be travelling to a new location and this will have something to do with the exciting prospect of a new romance.
Virgo (Aug 24 - Sept 23)
You know you have reached your limit in a specific area. Although the thought of making a change is unsettling, it is a more productive option than remaining stagnant. Ignore the concerns of a worried relative who believes you should remain in your current situation.
Libra (Sept 24 - Oct 23)
Everyone faces temptation at some point in their life. Your goal now is to reach your full potential without taking any shortcuts. Success may not come instantly but you will gain admiration and respect from those in high places through your dedicated efforts.
Scorpio (Oct 24 - Nov 22)
Rewards you expected for your recent efforts may not be as wonderful as were promised. Still, you should avoid rushing into making decisions, particularly when it comes to your job. Remaining in a stable situation might be a better option than leaving in frustration.
Sagittarius (Nov 23 - Dec 21)
Everyday expenses are increasing. This will force you to have to make some lifestyle changes. Rather than indulging in costly entertainment, consider more affordable alternatives. The library, for instance, is an excellent resource, offering the intellectual stimulation you seek while keeping your expenses in check.
‌
Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 20)
A contentious family situation is about to escalate. Keep your cool. Walking away from a relative who isn't being reasonable would be better than getting into a fiery argument. Fortunately, you have friends who are there for you. Don't hesitate to reach out to them when you start feeling anxious.
Aquarius (Jan 21 - Feb 19)
You care about other people and hate to see anyone suffer. At the same time it is important not to let your compassionate nature hold you back from progressing in life. If you are going to achieve a long-term goal, it will be important to avoid negative influences and toxic individuals.
Pisces (Feb 20 - Mar 20)
A team effort is progressing well. Even so, take a little time to observe what others are doing. Someone might need some reassurance and once they know they are doing okay, they will get on without any need for supervision.

Miley Cyrus gives rare insight into her relationship as she teases cougar title

Singer-songwriter Miley Cyrus teased that she's a "cougar" whilst discussing her relationship with Maxx Morando. She spoke about being older than her partner on a podcast recently and also paid tribute to the fellow musician. Miley, now 32, has been romantically linked to Maxx, now 26, since 2021. The Grammy Award winner previously revealed that she first went on a blind date with the drummer, who's in the music industry himself as a member of the rock band Liily. She spoke about Maxx whilst on the latest episode of the Sorry We're Cyrus podcast, which is hosted by her mother Tish Cyrus, 58, and older sister Brandi Cyrus, 38. Miley teased on the podcast that the three of them are all "cougars". Miley shared that she is five years older than Max, but said they become four years apart for a brief period. It was noted on the podcast that their age gap is bigger than those in Tish and Brandi's respective relationships. Brandi is dating Matt South, 36, at the moment. Whilst parent Tish - who was married to Billy Ray Cyrus, 63, for more than a decade - is now married to Prison Break star Dominic Purcell, 55, after having tied the knot back in 2023. The discussion came after Brandi asked her sibling and mother on the podcast: "What does it say about the three of us that technically we are all cougars?" Miley then responded to the question by teasing: "So many things!" She went on to suggest that the age difference in her relationship is the biggest. Miley questioned on the episode: "Am I the landslide? Is mine the most?" Tish agreed with the suggestion, before her daughter spoke about Maxx. Miley said: "He'll be 27 when I turn 33, which I'm so excited for him to turn 27 because that was, again, such a great year for me." The former Hannah Montana star said that it's the age she was when she began to "turn her life around". She shared: "So I'm just hoping that, y'know, as long as he follows in my footstep, everything is gonna be great. That's right when I started turning my life around." The singer later said: "Sometimes we're only four [years apart] for like three days because we're only a couple of days apart." Miley then revealed to her relatives that Maxx is a Scorpio, before teasing that her partner "can sting". She said about his star sign: "That's what makes him so cool because he can sting. [...] Very cool, like calm ... you think that they're little angels until it turns around and they got a sting." Miley however told her Tish and Brandi that she couldn't be with someone who had a different personality. She said during the discussion: "But I couldn't be with someone that doesn't sting. They would have been toast already."

The troubled early life of Hairy Bikers' Dave Myers: Star's widow Lili reveals how star battled childhood sickness, bullying and messy first marriage before his tragic death

He was beloved by millions of Hairy Bikers fans who expressed an outpouring of love after his death from cancer in 2024 aged 66. Now Dave Myers ' widow Lili has revealed he faced adversity in his early life as she detailed his childhood and early adulthood in her new memoir Dave & Me. Lili, who married Dave in 2011, recounted the late star's early years in the emotional book, including his battle with alopecia and his mother's health struggles with multiple sclerosis. Dave's mother Margaret was diagnosied with MS when he was just eight years old, forcing him and his father Jim to become her full-time carers. Lili wrote: 'Within a year of Margaret's diagnosis, she was in a wheelchair and, in time, became physically and mentally ravaged by illness and medication. 'Dave and his dad were her full-time carers which was an immense responsibility for a boy not yet ten. 'Social services eventually moved them to a ground-floor flat on a new council estate in Barrow and the family lived hand-to-mouth, surviving on Jim's pension money. There were many other challenges to contend with, but Dave found escape in music and painting, two more lifelong loves alongside bikes and food.' Dave had lost both his parents by the time he was 24, with Jim dying of a stroke and Margaret passing away in a care home four years later. The presenter also had to contend with bullying in school which occured after he was diagnosed with alopecia and lost his hair. 'Not many people know that Dave Myers, the Hairy Biker, was bald from childhood until his forties,' Margaret wrote. 'At a very young age he began to suffer with alopecia which made things extremely difficult for him, especially in school where he was already singled out for being a 'poor kid' thanks to his free meal tokens. He was a target for the bullies and those days were miserable for Dave, sapping his confidence and spirit.' Dave even believed his alopecia may have developed as a side effect of the stress of caring for his mother. It wasn't until Dave was in his forties that his hair started to grow back which came after a worrying health scare. Lili told how Dave was working on a film set as a makeup artist in Luxembourg in 1998 when he collapsed. Rushed to a German hospital, a scan revealed an arachnoid cyst on the left side of his brain which was thought to have been there since childhood because his brain had grown around it. 'Against advice from doctors and friends, he travelled in his van (driven by a colleague), back to his home in Aberdeenshire where he was admitted to the Royal Infirmary for an operation to install a shunt to relieve the pressure, plus drains to remove the fluid from the cyst itself,' Lili wrote. 'Thankfully, the surgery was a success and Dave was discharged just five days later on Christmas Eve, but his recovery took some unexpected turns. 'Not long after his op, Dave's hair started to grow in dark and healthy curls. I'm not medically trained and so this is just a hunch, but perhaps that cyst sitting undetected had been pressing on a certain part of the brain ... and maybe a combination of that and the stress of caring for his mum had triggered the alopecia in the first place? We'll never know for sure, but it makes sense to me. 'I could still feel the shunt on the left side of Dave's head when I met him seven years later, a testimony to a past I was not part of. Another life. 'One I only knew from pictures and Dave and his friends' endless stories. Oh, Dave was so proud of his hair once he had it back! He would wash it every day.' Prior to his fame with Simon King as part of the Hairy Bikers, Dave worked as a makeup artist for 23 years. He worked on several film sets and did the makeup of stars including Christoper Lambert, Sir Roger Moore, Dennis Hopper, Helen Mirren, Stephanie Beacham, Timothy West, Michael Parkin-son, Vanessa Redgrave and Jane Seymour. In 1987, Dave was working as a freelancer when he met his first wife Kate. They relocated to the northeast of Scotland, buying an apartment above a small shop in Huntly, Aber-deenshire and setting up an antiques business together. 'I'm not sure how happy those years were, but they must have loved each other and Dave spoke fondly about the fun he had running the shop, with him taking ad hoc makeup artistry work when he could throughout the year,' Lili wrote. But all was not well as Lili told how Dave returned home one weekend from a job in Darlington and found the shop, flat and his bank account emptied and Kate gone. 'Twisting the knife further was the discovery that she'd enlisted the help of Dave's unwitting best friend, Dr Dave Easton, to load the van under the guise of going to an antiques fair,' she wrote. 'Poor Dr Dave had no idea he was aiding and abetting Kate to clean Dave out and he felt terrible, although of course it wasn't his fault. It would be a source of humour between the two Daves throughout all the years that followed. 'Dave never saw Kate again after that and they only spoke once more to agree to an uncontested divorce. From what he told me, she felt unsettled living where they were, but the reality for Dave was now starting his life again from scratch.' Elsewhere in the book, Lili discussed Dave's cancer treatment, which she described as 'debilitating and ugly'. His treatment was so aggressive that he developed sores in his mouth and had to wear gloves due to nerve damage in his hands. 'It got to the point where he was too ill to speak; after each bout, one of the substances he was being given brought on a temporary speech impediment so he could not properly articulate words,' Lili wrote. 'He had sores in his mouth which meant he was unable to eat or drink and was suffering with such severe nerve damage in his hands that he had to wear gloves. 'He had it in his legs too, which affected his balance and ability to walk. I remember Si picked us up from the hospital one day and he was shocked at the state of Dave, who was a shadow of his former self.' Lili also described how difficult it was for Dave to lose his hair again whilst going through chemo. 'Losing his hair as a result of the chemo was incredibly painful for Dave given his history of alopecia and the regrowth following the surgery in 1998 for the arachnoid cyst. 'The decision to shave it all off was our way of taking control, which was psychologically beneficial, although it took him a while to get used to being bald again. 'He felt reduced to being only a cancer patient, stripped of his image, identity and personality, and with a face he no longer recognised.' She added: 'He told me how difficult he found it to love himself when he looked in the mirror because the physical change was so drastic. He thought he was hideous with no hair, no eyelashes and heavily stained teeth from chemo. 'He'd lost a lot of muscle mass which meant his skin sagged, the neuropathy in his hands and feet made them unbearably achy, and some fingernails and toenails had fallen off.' Lili first met the TV personality in 2005, while he was working on location in her native Romania. They became pen pals before establishing a romance, with Dave eventually becoming stepfather to her two children from a former relationship.

Pop icon crying as crazed fan grabs her and tries to pull off stage

EXCLUSIVE: Suzi Quatro has just turned 75, but she's got the energy and enthusiasm of a twenty-something and tells us about the secret to her three-decade long marriage — and a terrifying encounter with an overzealous fan She's the original queen of rock and roll — a legend who many female stars credit for opening doors to women in music. Suzi Quatro has just turned 75, but she's got the energy and enthusiasm of a twenty-something — and she can still rock a tight leather jumpsuit while wielding her trusty bass guitar. Deliciously straight-talking, the star is as passionate about performing as when she first stepped onto the stage, aged just 14, playing the bongos with her sisters in the trio The Pleasure Seekers. ‌ Here, the Detroit native, who has been married to German concert promoter Rainer Haas since 1993, tells us about her 2026 UK tour, the secret to her three-decade long marriage — and a terrifying encounter with an overzealous fan. ‌ You turned 75 recently — you look amazing! Ha ha, thank you. I'm still convinced they got the date wrong on my birth certificate. I'm proud to be 75, but I'm young at heart. I had a party but I don't drink much any more. Eventually you get to a point where you say, I've been there, had the monster hangover, and the thrill's gone. Do you ever feel bored not drinking at parties? No, because I'm a people person. I find my way into the conversation. I'm a Gemini. Geminis are ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication, which says it all. And there's no middle ground with me — I'm either crazy up and excited, or I'm down. I never have an even keel. We keep people on their toes. Don't ever second-guess a Gemini, because you won't win. You've been married to husband Rainer for 32 years. What's your secret? ‌ We live in separate countries! That is definitely a factor. I was 24/7 with my first husband, who was also my guitar player. Nice as that was, sometimes it wasn't. The main ingredient is trust and respect. We're soulmates, basically. I'm an optimist and he's a pessimist. We balance each other out. You and Rainer work together, too. How do you find that? Yes, he's my manager but I refuse to use the 'M' word in front of him! We enjoy missing each other, then getting together. Some people ask how we make that work, but it works for us. But the main ingredient to any successful relationship is not to expect the other person to 'complete' you. You have to be whole yourself. ‌ Tell us about your tour next year. What can fans expect? I'm celebrating 62 years in the business next year. It's a big tour across the UK — an entertaining two-hour rock and roll show with all the hits and a few surprises. I play the piano, drums and a seven-minute bass solo... I take you on a journey through my life. I talk a little, but I don't do Adele. She talks more than she sings, and she's very good at it. ‌ You must need to be in peak fitness for a big tour… I'm the rehearsal queen. I rehearse as if it was a live show, running around. If I'm not working, then I make sure I'm going to the gym. It means on stage, I still have that energy. Is life on the road a bit more sedate these days? ‌ I've partied, had the odd room wreck — but I was never a sex, drugs and rock and roll girl. I was brought up in a musical family. My dad told me aged 15, 'Suzi, you've found what you want to do in life. This is a profession. If there's 10 people or 10,000 in the audience, everyone's paid to see you, and you owe them.' That's always been embedded in me. You're also working on a new album… I am. Alice Cooper agreed to do a track on it. We recorded it in Detroit last year. I've known him since I was a teenager and he's so different from his stage persona that I can't watch him live. That's not the guy I know! We're close friends, he's a lovely guy. ‌ Is there anyone else you'd love to collaborate with? Rod Stewart. He's headed to Glastonbury this summer. They've asked me a couple of times, but the offer was silly. I'm better than that. It's not even about the money — after 61 years, I want the respect that I deserve, but I'd be happy to do it. What are your most memorable concerts? ‌ The first gig I did in Germany in 1973 — the first big show where thousands of people had paid to see me and were screaming, going nuts. My 50th birthday at a gig in Berlin was cool — when you hear Happy Birthday sung by 22,000 people, you hear it! That feeling never gets old. It's a legal high. ‌ What's a wild fan memory? In Germany recently I had taken my bass off towards the end of a show. Walking along the front, people were high-fiving me — but one girl grabbed my hand and wouldn't let go and tried to pull me off the stage. And she was strong. I was really scared — I was crying. What did you do? ‌ I backed up and sat down on the flight case I use, so nobody saw anything. I sang my final song and, as soon as I finished, a sound engineer came on, wrapped a towel around me and walked me offstage. But I was thinking, what kind of person thinks that's OK? I could have broken my neck. Has being a woman in a male-dominated industry changed over the years? I'll take to my grave that I was the first female rock musician to have worldwide success. There are many more female musicians today, but they tend to be too influenced by male opinion. Sometimes, women go out there in outfits close to soft porn. I wore a jumpsuit, but I showed no flesh. You don't have to strip off to be sexy. Work for it, buddy! ‌ Your seventh book, Grave Undertakings, came out in April. Can you tell us more about it? It did, and people are going crazy! It's caused so much discussion. I was a graveyard dweller as a kid through to adulthood. It's fascinating, reading tombstones. In my twenties I came up with the title and started collecting tombstone inscriptions, and did it for 35 years to assemble a book. Then I realised this would work as a novel. Can you fill us in on the book's plot? ‌ I've had a love of psychology my entire life. If you're mad at me, I want to know why. So I came up with a plot about six psychology students. It takes you through their lives, you get 20 lessons in psychology, and the pay-off is the tombstone inscriptions. That's all I can say. So, what would your own tombstone inscription say, Suzi? One side would say, 'Now I get it!' and the other, 'Too many dreams, too little time'. I've certainly thought about my life more over the last few years. I'm not going anywhere yet, though. Do you have any burning ambitions left? I would love my latest book to be made into a movie or a musical. Strictly would be fun — and I can dance! They've asked me before but the time was never right. I wouldn't do the jungle — it feels degrading. I'll watch it, though. I've realised so many dreams and I've still got so much to say. I'm happy as long as there's fire in my belly — and there's still plenty.
